Dogs or cats are mammals who have a small stomach compared to their bodyweight.
mastery PRO are highly digestible ranges of foods that can be given in small daily rations to take account of this particular feature. mastery PRO provides dogs or cats with all the nutrients they need during their growth and throughout their adult life : a lovely coat, good health and longevity.
mastery PRO, are more than just croquettes : they are genuine, complete foods for your carnivore.
Your dog or your cat will get the benefit, you will see the difference.
NUTRIENTS |
THEIR ROLES |
PROTEINS and vital amino acids |
Mainly work to ensure muscle growth |
FATS and essential fatty acids (ω3 - ω6) |
Main source of energy to give the animal stamina Healthy skin and lovely coat. Growth of nervous tissue and development of immunity. |
CARBOHYDRATES |
Starch |
Secondary source (unlike man : slow sugar) of energy for the animal's short-term muscular effort and helps to make an animal feel full without the risk of overeating. |
Insoluble fibre |
Digestive transit (cellulose), hairball regulation and elimination (for cats) |
Soluble fibre (including fructo-oligosaccharides : FOS) |
Preserve the colon flora while favouring its growth and helping to fight against bacteria proliferation Ensure a better digestive comfort and a better local immunity. |
MINERALS |
Calcium |
Manufactures and maintains bone tissue and teeth |
Phosphorus |
Energy metabolism, component of nucleic acids (DNA) |
Magnesium |
Helps activity of enzymes, nerve and muscle tissues |
Sodium |
Manufactures gastric juices, maintains various vital functions in the animal |
Potassium |
Good cell and blood circulation function |
Sulphur |
Composition of several substances, especially sulphur-coated amino acids that help towards the growth and maintenance of fur, nails, etc... |
TRACE ELEMENTS |
Iron |
Carries oxygen in blood and tissues |
Copper |
Tissue pigment synthesis, fur quality |
Zinc |
Protein synthesis, skin integrity, takes part in immune reactions |
Iodine |
Helps energy metabolism |
Selenium |
Integrity of cell membranes, synergy with vitamin E in antioxidant action |
VITAMINS |
A (Retinol) |
Vision and eyes : retinal pigments, lubrication of the cornea Epithelium : renewal of skin and mucous membranes Bones : growth and re-structuring Reproduction : ovary cycle, integrity of the uterus |
D3 (Cholecalciferol) |
Bone metabolism : fixing of calcium and phosphorus in the bone |
E (α- tocopherol) |
With selenium : protects muscle membranes, biological antioxidant |
K3 (Menadione) |
Helps coagulate the blood |
B1 (Thiamine) |
Sugar metabolism (storage, use) Proper function of the nervous and muscular systems |
B2 (Riboflavin) |
Sugar metabolism, lipids and proteins, energy exchanges between cells |
B3 (Niacinamide) |
Metabolism of the mucous membranes, skin and fur |
B6 (Pyridoxine) |
Amino acid metabolism |
B12 (Cyanocobalamine) |
Protein and nucleic acid synthesis |
PP (Niacin) |
Fatty acid metabolism, carbohydrates, proteins, integrity of the skin and mucous membranes |
Folic acid (B9) |
Synthesis of nucleic acid in the cells operating the nervous system |
H (Biotin) |
Takes part in life's main functions and reactions : energy, digestion, skin, heart, lungs, etc... |
Choline chloride (B4) |
Transmission of nerve impulses, growth, transport of lipids |
Chondroïtine Sulfate (for dogs) |
Natural componant of joints. Allows cartilage elasticity and strength |
