Inclusion of additives in the diet is one of the trends in pet nutrition

The microbiota of companion animals can be unbalanced due to several factors, ranging from genetic formation to food, environment, stress and even other diseases related to this category.

Currently, commercial diets for pets are increasingly specific, offering differentials regarding breeds, neutered animals, obese, with some disease or even those who live indoors. In general, what can characterize these diets is the inclusion of different additives, so the inclusion of these ingredients has been increasingly important in the industry of pet food.

"The increase in the pet population and the cultural change related to pet care are among the principles that should continue to foster the progress of this market niche", explains the Agricultural Engineer and Technical Research Coordinator at YesSinergy®, Veronica Lisbon.

Another factor considered is that discoveries in the animal nutrition scenario take place in an extremely dynamic way. Thus, new products are developed to meet the demand of this market and the effectiveness of prebiotics and probiotics will depend on many factors, including their association with other food additives.

The pet food industry grows concomitantly with research in this area, based on objectives not only to meet nutritional needs, but also with the purpose of promoting health, well-being and reducing the risk of disease to pets. “Researchers and nutritionists are looking for functional ingredients that combine additional benefits to primary nutrition, such as prebiotics and probiotics for companion animals”, adds Verônica.
