Add some flavor: Brewer’s yeast
November 1, 2013 by admin
Add some tang to your dog’s food by adding Brewer’s yeast. The recommendations are no more than one teaspoon or tablet per day. Not only do you have some flavor to your dog’s food. It may also be beneficial because yeast contains omega fatty acid, B Vitamins and antioxidants. This may help strengthen the immune system and maintain the coat. Always check with your dog’s vet and dog nutritionist before implementing a new food.

Like humans, dogs also require fats. Fats provide essential fatty acids that dogs can not make. Fats also help maintain their overall appearance ( coat and skin) and internal health (good nervous system and brain function, energy provider and aid in vitamin absorption). Fats also help absorb fat soluble vitamins through your dog’s food such as Vitamin A, D, E, and K. When reading food labels check to make sure your dog food has good fat such as olive, sunflower, safflower, and soybean oils.
