Peptide+ Weight Management and Joint Control

Description

What makes the Peptide+ Weight Management and Joint Care Diet so unique?

The development and formulation of the Peptide+ Weight Control & Joint Care recipe has centred around the ‘Power of Peptides’ using the latest Freshtrusion HDP technology.

Freshtrusion HDP (Highly Digestible Protein) is the unique process of cooking fresh meat and fish ingredients with a natural enzyme, which digests (hydrolyses) the protein into a mixture of peptides and free amino acids.

This increases the digestibility and bioavailability of the protein and improves palatability through what we like to refer to as the Goldilocks Principle.

The Goldilocks Principle

Instinctively, it would be assumed that intact protein would be best for a dog to digest, as it contains all the nutritional elements together. Similarly, individual amino acids, broken down as small as possible, might be considered to be much easier to absorb. However, it has been proven in research studies that the ideal digestibility and absorption rates occur in small-chain peptides (≤ 3kDa). We like to refer to this as the ‘Goldilocks principle.

The Power of Peptides for Weight and Joint Control

• Increases the digestibility and bioavailability of the protein
• Improves the palatability of the recipe
• Ensures an ideal supply of amino acid building blocks required for the renewal and synthesis of key peptide hormones and proteins such as collagen
• It stimulates the secretion of appetite-suppressive molecules, which may induce a decrease in food intake by increasing the feeling of satiety
• It helps to support and maintain healthy joints and regain mobility
