Are you confused about prebiotics and probiotics? You aren't alone! At FüreverWell, we know many pet owners just can't seem to wrap their heads around exactly how these two gut-health powerhouses differ. But don't worry – we're here to break it down and explain, in a very non-intimidating way, why both are vital for your furry friend's well-being.
The Dynamic Duo: Prebiotics and Probiotics
Think of your dog's gut as a metropolis. The probiotics are its friendly citizens. The prebiotics, well, they are the resources those friendly probiotics require to do their thing. But what are they, and how do they work together?
Probiotics: The Good Guys
Probiotics are living good bacteria that assist the digestion process of your dog's body. They're the little workers of Gut City, keeping it running as it should. But here's the thing: these helpful microorganisms have to be in the right environment to survive and multiply.
Prebiotics: The Fuel for Success
That is where prebiotics come in. They are non-digestible fibers that feed the probiotics. Think of prebiotics as the nutrients and building blocks that make the probiotic "citizens" healthy and perform their jobs with efficiency.
Why Your Dog Needs Both
You may think, "Why can't I simply give my dog probiotics and be done?" Almost, but not quite! Here is why this combination of prebiotics and probiotics is so strong:
Synergistic Effect: Prebiotics and probiotics work in a synergistic relationship. Prebiotics are the fuel needed for probiotics to multiply and start populating your dog's gut.
Long-term Gut Health: Where probiotics introduce good bacteria, prebiotics help create an environment where these good bacteria can establish themselves for the long haul.
Improved Nutrient Absorption: A healthy gut microbiome, supported by prebiotics and probiotics, helps your dog absorb nutrients from their food much better.
Stronger Immunity: About 70% of your dog's immunity lies in their gut. Thus, by boosting gut health through prebiotics and probiotics, you are boosting their overall immunity, too.
The FüreverWell Difference: Oömph!
Here at FüreverWell, we formulate Oömph! - a very special complex combining pre- and probiotics to support a healthy gut environment and lifelong health for your dog. But what is so special about this combination?
