"WHAT IS THE GLYCEMIC INDEX AND WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO HAVE IT LOW?"
A cat's natural diet has evolved to meet all its energy needs from animal protein and fat, almost without carbohydrates.All commercially available foods contain carbohydrates ranging from to , and this actually means unwanted calories.
Carbohydrates in traditional cereals, such as glucose, provide high energy that peaks the post-meal glycemic response. In these situations, the post-meal insulin response to glucose and the modulating ability of different types of carbohydrates are critical.
What is Glycemic?
- GlycemicThe Glycemic Index (GI) is a scale from 1 to 100. The lower the score, the slower the food raises a person's blood sugar level. The GI for glucose and white bread is 100.
We Use Natural Fibers for Nutritional Balance in N D Cat Food
Consuming the right amount of fiber in a balanced diet plays an important role in regulating bowel movements and also affects the absorption of various nutrients. The main sources of fiber in cat food products are beet pulp, pea fiber, pure cellulose, and dried alfalfa.
Used by the Italians
- Beet pulp supports bowel movements and ensures regular stool consistency.
- Pure cellulose, used in some dietary formulas, is the main source of insoluble fiber. It is a key factor for intestinal peristalsis and is particularly used in treatments requiring reduced calorie intake.
- Highly soluble pea fiber forms a mass that slows intestinal transit and facilitates the absorption of micronutrients.
- Dried alfalfa is a good source of micronutrients such as carotene and calcium.
- Some specific prebiotics, such as fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and mannanoligosaccharides (MOS), benefit the intestines by competing with and eliminating pathogenic bacteria and eliminating any toxins.
- Psyllium seeds are rich in absorbable fiber, ensuring optimal absorption in the digestive system. They also support nutrient absorption and maintain regular stool consistency.
- When selecting the fiber blend to be used in each formula, takes into consideration the physiological and pathological conditions to which pets are prone, as well as the pathological conditions to which specific breeds are prone.

We Use Natural Antioxidants in N D Cat Food
Food Antioxidants not only protect the food but also benefit pets when they eat it: the level of antioxidants in the body reduces the damage caused by free radicals, often free radicals such as Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), which are responsible for chronic and degenerative diseases. Oxidative damage causes the onset of illness, and these protective antioxidants prevent cellular aging and reduce oxidative stress.
- TBHQ, BHA, and BHT are artificial antioxidants used in foods, and their effects on pet health are still under debate. Many studies show a link between the values of these compounds in the body, especially when consumed in high doses, and certain changes in the internal organs of pets.
- We have decided to add only natural antioxidants to all our formulations. These antioxidants, derived from natural sources and added to our entire range during the storage of raw materials and the final product, are: carotenoids, retinoids (Vitamin A), bioflavonoids (citrine), polyphenols (hydroxytyrosol), tocopherols (Vitamin E), and ascorbic acid (Vitamin C). Many fruits and vegetables are rich in antioxidants.
