Gunner123 103 Posted December 6, 2011 Report Share Posted December 6, 2011 (edited) Salmon oil is a better choice. The salmon oil for pets is gained by cold pressing the fresh salmon. This method preserves the important unsaturated fatty acids. The unsaturated fatty acids strengthen the immune system and prevent hair and skin conditions such as dandruff, dry skin, dull dry coat and allergies. The salmon oil for your dog or cat contains No preservatives or artificial colours. The salmon oil is supplied complete with a hygienic pump, which makes it easy to add the oil to dog or cat food. Salmon Oil for your pets is available in 250ml, 500ml, 1000ml and 2500ml bottles. WHY WE USE SALMON OIL Kronch will give your dog or cat healthy skin and a shiny coat. It strengthens immune systems, increases fertility and reduces the risk of heart disease. Great for working dogs, puppies and gundogs, with vitamin B and natural nutrients. With wild Salmon and no intestines, no soya, and no artificial additives, colourings, or flavourings you can rely on Kronch to keep your dog incredibly healthy - naturally. Read about what readlly goes into some other pet foods What are Omega –3 and Omega –6 Both Omega –6 and Omega –3 fatty acids belong to a group of polyunsaturated fats called 'essential' because they are necessary to life and to health. Yet animals and humans cannot produce them in the body – they must be obtained from diet. They cannot be inter–converted and both must be present in a proper balance for good health. Their differences lie in their chemical structure and their roles in the body. Basically, the Omega –3s have anti inflammatory benefits and help prevent heart disease, whereas Omega-6s lower blood cholesterol and maintain a healthy coat and skin. Why Salmon Oil? Salmon is an excellent source of high quality protein, containing all essential amino acids. It is rich in minerals and contains vitamins A, D, B6 and B12. Salmon is a good source of Vitamin E, a powerful antioxidant, which lowers the risk of heart disease. Salmon is easy to digest and is an excellent food source for dogs, both old and young. Perhaps, most important, Salmon contains Omega – 3 oil, which decreases the risk of heart disease. What is Omega –3? Omega –3 are the essential fatty acids known as the "super-unsaturates". They are a family of essential nutrients which when present in the diet over a long period of time, may have the power thousands times the power of Aspirin to stop the inflammatory reactions responsible for arthritis and hip displasia. Omega –3 are the basic building blocks for nerve tissue and brain cells. It is concentrated throughout the food chain, but is most abundant in the oils of cold-water fish such as salmon. What can Omega –3 do for your dog or cat? It can lower triglycerides in the blood. Lower the low-density cholesterol in the blood. Greatly reduce risk of heart disease. Aid in regulation of blood sugar levels. Inhibit tumour growth and lower the risk of cancer. FOOD OMEGA –3 SALMON 2.07 BEEF 0.03 CHICKEN 0.06 Source Nutrition Database Grams per 100gm portion. Why is it important to my dog or cat Dogs and cats rely on us, the owner, to give them a regulated and balanced diet. Imbalances between OMEGA –6 and OMEGA –3 can cause degenerative conditions such as a dull, lack lustre coat, inflamed joints and dry skin conditions. Mixing oil with a day's normal feed or feeding the salmon treats helps keep this balance inside the target ratio of 1:4.8. Any living animal given the right nutritional elements, can expect to lead to a healthier and longer life span. It is common knowledge that it's mostly down to a lack of proper nutrition most pets do not live out a normal life expectancy. Some dogs live as little as half their life expectancy.
