" The natural diet of cats has evolved to meet all of their energy needs from animal protein and fats, almost without carbohydrates. All commercial market foods contain carbohydrate ratios ranging from to , and this actually means unwanted calories. Carbohydrates in traditional grains used in cat foods provide high energy that, like glucose, peaks the post-meal glycemic response. Especially in these cases, the post-meal insulin response to glucose and the modulating ability of different types of carbohydrates are critical. What is Glycemic? The glycemic index (GI) is a scale of 1-100. The lower the score, the slower the food raises a person's blood sugar levels. Glucose and white bread have a GI score of 100. We Use Natural Fibers for Nutritional Balance in N D Cat Foods. 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
fiber sources in N D Cat Food products are beet pulp, pea
fiber, pure cellulose, and dried alfalfa. Beet pulp, used by the Italians, 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), compete with and eliminate pathogenic bacteria, thus benefiting the intestines. Psyllium seeds are rich in absorbable
fiber, ensuring optimal absorption in the digestive system. They also support nutrient absorption and maintain a regular stool consistency. When selecting the
fiber blend to use in each formula, N D 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. N D Prime Pork and Apple Adult Cat Food Ingredients This adult cat food is an adult cat food. The selection of raw materials and the biological value of the food used are of great importance for your pet friends to live a healthy life. At Farmina, we use only the finest products from our contracted suppliers to best meet the nutritional needs of cats. In our entire product range, especially our Vet Life and Natural Delicious product lines, we have selected the best raw materials that can also be used in human food to produce GMO-free cat foods. We Carefully Select the Raw Ingredients of N D Cat Foods The meat and eggs we carefully select are obtained from certified farms with high quality standards. Our carefully selected ingredients, such as chicken, lamb, wild boar, and eggs, are obtained from certified farms with high quality standards. Pork, a high-quality red meat, is a strong protein source and is sourced from New Zealand farms. It is rich in essential fatty acids and linoleic acids that prevent cancer, and supports lean muscle mass. Farmina produces wild boar meat in semi-wild herds in Tuscany and Umbria. As red meat, it has a high biological value. It contains essential amino acids such as taurine, methionine, lysine, and cystine. Cat food products combine animal categories and the specific needs of different species, and the addition of these amino acids increases the biological value of the protein content in Premium food. The addition of these amino acids allows Farmina products to meet the specific needs of different species and categories of animals and increases the nutritional biological value. To ensure the correct content of essential amino acids, N D taurine, methionine, lysine, and cystine are integrated into the diet. The addition of these amino acids helps increase the biological value of the dietary proteins in Farmina Cat Food products to meet the specific needs of different species and categories of animals.

Because vitamins play an important role in biological reactions. Vitamin deficiencies may show specific and obvious symptoms in some cases, while in other cases vague or only weakness-based symptoms may be observed. Therefore, to ensure the proper maintenance of all vital functions, a daily intake of appropriate amounts of the best cat food is essential. The vitamin amounts in N D Cat Food products have been determined and developed to be physiologically and pathologically appropriate for pets. Thanks to the vacuum system used in Farmina's production, vitamins are added after cooking, protecting them from mechanical and thermal stress. This ensures a longer shelf life and increased durability. Analytical Components Crude protein D.00 Crude fat .00 Crude

N D Prime prefers to choose oils for its products, especially chicken and fish oil. Vegetable oils include flaxseed oil, which is rich in linolenoic acid, an essential fatty acid for cats. Chicken fat sourced from Italian producers contains higher-quality polysaturated fat than pork and beef fat. Chicken fat is also palatable to pets. Fish oil is rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, which are animal fats, and EPA and DHA, which have anti-inflammatory properties. Polyunsaturated fats, on the other hand, have significant effects on skin and coat health and have been shown to have anti-aging effects. Nutritional Additives Vitamin A 18000IU

Antioxidants not only protect food but also benefit pets during ingestion: antioxidant levels in the body reduce the damage caused by free radicals. Free radicals such as Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) often cause oxidative damage, which is the initial cause of chronic and degenerative diseases. These protective antioxidants prevent cellular aging and reduce oxidative stress. TBHQ, BHA, and BHT are synthetic antioxidants used in food, and their effects on pet health are still under debate. Numerous studies have linked the bodily values of these ingredients, especially at high doses, to changes in pets' internal organs. As the N D brand, we have decided to include only natural antioxidants in all our formulations. These antioxidants, obtained from natural sources, are added to our entire scale during the storage of raw materials and the final product: carotenoids, retinoids (Vitamin A), bioflavonoids (citrine), polyphenols (hydroxytyrosol), tocopherols (Vitamin E) and ascorbic acid (Vitamin C). Many fruits and vegetables are rich in antioxidants. Organoleptic Additives Aloe vera extract 1000mg Green tea extract 100mg Rosemary extract Antioxidants Natural-origin extracts rich in tocopherols. "MEDICINAL HERBS WITH SPECIFIC BENEFITS" The medicinal herbs in the Natural Delicious product series, vegetables and medicinal herbs determined according to their instinctive food picky tendencies, ensure the health of your furry friend while also improving the quality of life. Natural Delicious products are enriched with alfalfa, psyllium, rosemary, turmeric, aloe vera, and green tea to stimulate toxin elimination and strengthen organs and tissues. Vitamins: Vitamins are essential nutrients for proper nutrition. Vitamin deficiencies play a crucial role in biological reactions. While vitamin deficiencies can sometimes present specific and distinct symptoms, others may present with vague or merely weakness. Therefore, for all vital functions to function properly, appropriate daily intake must be ensured. Minerals: Maximum care and attention is achieved through the availability of macro and oligo elements. However, this varies depending on the pet's pathophysiological condition, age, and breed. In dietary formulas specifically developed to treat pathological disorders, Farmina Pet Foods places particular emphasis on adjusting mineral intake to compensate for the metabolic deficit caused by certain pathological disorders and or to maintain the functionality of relevant organs. Botanical Ingredients: Farmina uses botanical compounds in its formulas to support healthy living. These ingredients are used in various combinations in both healthy pet cat food lines and clinical nutrition diet lines. Fruits such as apples, pomegranates, blueberries, cranberries, and oranges are particularly popular. Farmina Grain-Free Cat Foods also contain spinach, carrots, and herbs rich in natural antioxidants, such as rosemary, aloe vera, turmeric, and green tea.
