Ark Naturals Gentle Digest Supplement

Ark Naturals Gentle Digest Supplement

Gentle Digest provides a source of beneficial intestinal bacteria and helps encourage their growth. All mammals have numerous beneficial bacteria living in their digestive tracts, including humans. Animals provide food and a warm home for these bacteria, and in exchange the bacteria help us digest our food, absorb nutrients, and eliminate toxic substances. Pets naturally eat fresh raw food, which provides such beneficial bacteria. Therefore, pets eating any type of pet food or cooked food may suffer from a lack of this beneficial bacteria. Available in 60 Capsules.

Gentle Digest provides a variety of heathful benefits:

• Restores digestive balance, alleviates minor constipation and diarrhea
• Aids digestion and absorption of processed pet foods. Pets may also suffer digestive difficulties due to wheat, corn, soy, sugar, and starch commonly added to commercial pet foods
• Normal levels of lactobacilli in the intestines are known to enhance the absorption of essential trace elements including calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and iron in both animals and humans
• Lactobacilli produce B vitamins and vitamin K

Gentle digest also contains specially patented Lactobacillus bacteria sporogenes. These are microencapsulated lactobacillus spores which are resistant to heat and stomach acid. Sporogenes germinate within the optimum growth environment of the intestines to deliver a maximum concentration of viable (live) lactobacilli. Many probiotic products on the market for both humans and pets are useless because they contain virtually no live bacteria. Plus, Gentle digest contains fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) from chicory root. FOS are small sugar polymers that serve as preferred foods for lactobacilli, and hence encourage their growth.

Gentle Digest is perfect for:

• Constipation
• Pets taking antibiotics. Antibiotics also kill beneficial bacteria, so Gentle Digest can be used safely along with antibiotics to re-establish digestive balance
• Aging animals who have difficulty digesting and absorbing food
• Pets with occasional diarrhea, flatulence, or foul smelling stools

Note:

Healthy Pet Use: Gentle Digest can be used daily for healthy pets. If pets stools become runny or more frequent, use thereafter once or twice a week.

Pets with Digestive Issues: If pets have vomiting, diarrhea or foul smelling stools for more than 2 consecutive days please consult a veterinarian.
