Your cat is a carnivore 5 reasons to understand. 1. NO SALIVARY AMYLASE This lack causes the pancreas to overwork because it is forced to take full responsibility for the digestion of carbohydrates. 2. SHORT AND SIMPLE DIGESTIVE TRACTS Due to the high ph of stomach acid, proteins and animal fats are quickly and easily digestible in the short intestinal tract. 3. TEETH AND JAWS CONFORMATION Wide mouth opening for swallowing large chunks. Short and sharp teeth good for tearing. 4.GLUCONEOGENESIS Cats use protein and fat as primary energy source and not carbohydrates. 5.INSULIN RESPONSE Food rich in carbohydrates causes higher insulin response which results in stored glucose as body fat. This can lead to diabetes and obesity.
Nutrition System for Carnivores The evolution of dogs and cats was similar to that of predators, so their anatomy is structured to eat an essentially carnivorous diet. Despite the outward differences of race, dogs and cats are descended from their wild ancestors, canids and felids, with whom they share the genetic code. Therefore, just like their ancestors, our dogs and cats, although they have gradually adapted their digestive system to the prey they ate, they prefer eating carnivore, that s why in terms of anatomical feature they have: sharp and pointed teeth to tear meat; jaw joint that allows a wide mouth opening for the ingestion of large pieces of meat; a short digestive system simply structured with a strong acidic gastric ph suitable to digest and metabolize proteins, therefore meat. Dogs and cats have difficulty digesting grains rather large and complex carbohydrates, because they lack of specific enzymes to digest these substances. A good system of nutrition is one that reproduces as closely as possible a natural diet, a diet innate to the genetics of our animals, or a biologically appropriate diet. Natural & Delicious The new and innovative line of dry food for dogs and cats, Natural & Delicious, is based on six key principles of carnivorous feed: 1. Low Glycemic Index with less carbohydrates and to minimum extent. 2. High protein sources from high quality fresh meat. 3. Vitamins and minerals in proper balance from high quality fresh fruits and vegetables. 4. Medicinal plants with specific properties for targeted effect. 5. Animal fats easily assimilated. 6. Complete absence of complex cereals or small amounts of ancestral and GMO-free cereals. High Glycemic Index (a large amount of glucose) Low Glycemic Index (little glucose) Risk of Diabetes and Obesity Wellbeing of dogs and cats Foods with LOW GLYCEMIC INDEX. Natural & Delicious is an Italian product designed and developed to be naturally appropriate to the metabolism and to the palatability of dogs and cats, it helps to prevent obesity and diabetes.
High protein sources of high quality fresh meat. Natural & Delicious uses as a protein base chicken, lamb, wild boar, fish and eggs. All our meats are without antibiotics, hormones Vitamins and minerals from high quality fresh fruits and vegetables. Both lines of Natural & Delicious contain the right amount of vitamins and minerals through a careful selection of fruits and vegetables: pomegranate, apple, orange, black currants, blueberries, spinach and carrots. Apple and pomegranate are healthy sources of fiber that can aid digestion. They are rich in phyto-nutrients and natural and preservatives, of fresh slaughter, with no by-products of the animal. Wild boar meat, red meat protein source is derived from wild herds of Tuscany and Umbria. The chicken meat comes from whole chickens reared on Italian soil from well known producers. The fish, valuable source of essential Omega-3 fatty acids, DHA and EPA, is caught in the seas of Northern Europe and is low chloride content, rich in protein and amino acids. The lamb meat, high quality red meat protein source, comes from free-range New Zealand farms. The eggs, are fresh, never frozen and without preservatives before dehydrating. Nutrition System for Carnivores antioxidants, which protect against free radicals. Currants and blueberries contain vitamins and natural antioxidants that fight aging and heart disease. Spinach in addition to being rich in vitamins, contain iron and other minerals with purifying and anti-anemic properties. Orange is a great source of Vitamin C and minerals salts that promote diuresis and have purifying properties. Carrots contain vitamin A and antioxidants. Medicinal plants with specific properties to a targeted effect. Medicinal plants to a targeted effect present in the Natural & Delicious line products, reproduce the tendency of animals to select instinctively in their food, plants and herbs that they eat to cure their health and improve their wellbeing. Natural & Delicious products are enriched with alfalfa, psyllium, rosemary, turmeric, aloe vera and green tea which tone and strengthen the organs and tissues, stimulating the elimination of toxins.
Non-vegetable animal fats. In the natural diet of carnivorous, fats fundamental elements for food, derive from animal sources and not plants and that is why they are easily assimilated. In fact, scientific studies have shown that only animal fat are well assimilated and absorbed by the metabolism of carnivores. In particuar the use of fish oil allows to guarantee, besides a good taste of the product, the correct contribution of essential fatty acids. In the new product line Natural & Delicious fat intake is given only by the presence of animal fat acids. Omega-3, EPA and DHA derived from chicken fat and fish oil. Carbohydrates to a minimum. The natural diet of dogs and cats contains very few carbohydrates, because their metabolism has evolved to take energy from protein and animal fat. Therefore carbohydrates are, for our animals, not first choice calories, which could contribute to the onset of diseases related to overweight like diabetes and insulin resistance. For this reason, the Natural & Delicious products have almost no carbohydrates. Viceversa, the majority of foods on the market, contains from 40% to 60% carbohydrates, due to the presence of industrial cereals in the composition of the products. The importance of a diet with ingredients with low glycemic index. Carbohydrates such as grains traditionally used provide a large amount of energy in the form of glucose which is released into the bloodstream. It is therefore of fundamental importance the postprandial insulin response to glucose, especially in its own ability to be modulated with respect to the different types of carbohydrates. Foods with a low glycemic index also have the ability to be more assimilable, by modulating the time of absorption and thereby reducing the physical stress of the body, increasing the efficiency. A high glycemic index, caused by cereals rich in highly digestible starch, is instead, the reason of occurrence of diseases such as obesity and diabetes. For these reasons N&D grain-free were created, which are completely lacking of grain added, and N&D low-grain, with spelt and oats, cereals which are characterized by lower glycemic index than cereals traditionally used, thanks to their constitution of starch slowly usable. Thanks to their low glycemic load, we have a moderate postprandial glycemic response and better modulated in time. Finally, unlike conventional cereals, they have a higher proportion of dietary fiber which promotes the digestion and absorption of nutrients, stimulating the body s defenses. Nutrition System for Carnivores
Nutrition System for Carnivores The N&D Grain-Free product is a high protein diet of the best biological value, thanks to the use of dehydrated Italian meat, fresh fish and dehydrated egg, all without cereals. These ingredients make this feed easily digestible and compatible with the anatomical and functional digestive system of cats and dogs. The N&D Grain-Free high protein diets are both tasty and induce increased use of gluconeogenesis from proteins with considerable advantages such as: satiety, modulation of postprandial glycemic response and development of lean body mass instead of fat. 70% premium animal ingredients 30% fruits, minerals and vegetables As for dogs and feral cats, the contributions of vitamins and nutrients are guaranteed by the presence of ingredients such as fruits and vegetables. Such ingredients may be by all means considered functional foods which, apart from bringing nutrients are essential for dog and cat weight maintenance, they also contain dietary fiber, able to promote the development of the intestinal flora and to naturally modulate the intestinal peristalsis; antioxidant substances, which slow down cellular ageing, and mono-and polyunsaturated fatty acids which are anti-inflammatory, antithrombogenic and atherosclerotic. 0% grain Natural & Delicious Grain-Free are Italian products, formulated and developed to meet the nutritional needs and tastes of all cats and dogs.

Nutrition System for Carnivores with very Low Glycemic Index. In nature, cats and dogs eat almost exclusively meat, they don t require high amounts of sugar. The reduced length of the digestive system, teeth and jaw conformations confirm this point. On this basis, we developed two lines of products with a high protein intake supplied by fresh meat and wild fish. The grain-free line is completely lacking of added grain. Instead the low-grain line, with a low intake of ancestral and no GMO Grain, such as spelt and oats, can ensure a low glycemic index. Both lines contain fruits and vegetables, rich in vitamins and nutritions, in order to improve cats and dogs health and quality of life. The production technologies applied, the twin screw extrusion, the vacuum coater system and the long life vitamins, guarantee a perfect development of the feed by preserving raw materials from production stress. Finally, the just in time shipment, allows us to deliver fresh products, preserving the palatability and nutritional characteristics. Natural & Delicious Grain-Free and Natural & Delicious Ancestral Cereals are Italian products, created, formulated and developed to be naturally suitable for cats and dogs nutrition and tastes. art_g. de sarno UPcomADV GMO FREE F REE 70% premium animal ingredients 30% fruits, minerals and vegetables 0% grain 60% premium animal ingredients 20% fruits, minerals and vegetables 20% ancestral and gmo-free grain Farmina Pet Foods www.farmina.com info@farmina.com Happy pet.
