Fat is the most important source of energy. Lack of fat will cause itchy skin, increased dandruff, rough and dry coat, and ear sensations, making domestic dogs clumsy and nervous. Appropriate absorption of fat can stimulate appetite, make food more suitable for their tastes, and at the same time promote Absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K. The fat digestion rate of pet dogs can reach almost 100%. The fat requirement for adult dogs is 1.2 grams per kilogram of body weight per day, and for growing dogs, it is 2.2 grams.

In the dog food ingredients list, what kind of fats does it contain? After taking a good look at it, we can tell you directly. There are good and bad fats. In order to facilitate your detection, I will summarize them for you: < /p>

　1. Lipids beneficial todogs:

　1) Vegetable oil /Vegetarian oil: rich in vitamins E and B, mostly free of vitamins and fatty acids, mostly made from dried plant seeds, such as corn oil, soybean oil, sunflower oil, peanut oil, etc.

2) Olive oil: It turns out that olive oil also belongs to (1) above, but why do you have to mention it in particular?

Olive oil contains monounsaturated fatty acids. The carbon chain in the fatty acids is shorter than the fat chains in other vegetable oils, and there is only one carbon copy. It takes the least time to metabolize in the body. It is easy to generate oxidizing free radicals! (Oxidative free radicals are widely used in advertising, and detoxification will be mentioned above)

The addition of free fatty acids can extend the service life of blood vessels, enhance the elasticity of blood vessel walls, prevent elongation, and so on.

It is currently the most expensive oil, along with tea tree oil. There is nothing wrong with it being a combination of (1) and (2)!

3) Fish oil: It is the best oil among meat oils! It is rich in vitamins A, D, and E. The main ingredients are omega-3 fatty acids, omega-6 fatty acids, DHA, etc. There may be a lot in these confessions.

These will greatly increase the high utilization rate of lipid metabolism in dogs' bodies, and have a strong protective effect on hair, skin, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

2. There are no good lipids for dogs:

Animal fats are composed of fatty acids and are easily oxidized. During the metabolism of the body, most of them will produce oxides, which will lead to premature aging and the accumulation of toxins in the body. They also contain an appropriate amount of cholesterol. , triglycerides, purines, and even hormones.

1) Cholesterol, triglycerides, needless to say, hyperlipidemia, high blood viscosity, can cause thrombosis, angina pectoris, chest tightness, ischemic cerebral palsy, cerebral hemorrhage, etc.

2) Hormones are useless.

3) Excessive consumption of purine, an acidic substance, will cause disorder of purine metabolism in the body, which is the culprit of gout, acidosis, and uric acid-related diseases.

Fat in the body is digested and digested by bile produced by the liver and local enzymes secreted by the pancreas. Eating an appropriate amount of fat and fatty acids will increase the burden on the liver and pancreas, leading to cirrhosis, liver cancer, and acute and chronic diseases. Pancreatitis, pancreatic cancer, cholecystitis, gallstones, reduce the incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, such as coronary heart disease, hyperlipidemia.
