The natural diet of cats has evolved to meet all of their energy needs from animal protein and fat, virtually without carbohydrates. Industrial market foods all contain carbohydrate ratios ranging from to , and this actually means unwanted calories. Carbohydrates in conventional grains used in cat foods provide high energy that, like glucose, peak 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 from 1-100. The lower the score, the slower the food raises a person's blood sugar level. The GI score for glucose and white bread is 100. We Use Natural Fibers for Nutritional Balance in N D Cat Foods Getting the right amount of
fiber in a balanced diet plays an important role in regulating bowel movements while also affecting the absorption of various nutrients. The main sources of
fiber in N D Cat Food products are beet pulp, pea
fiber, pure cellulose, and dried alfalfa. Beet pulp, used by Italians, supports bowel movements and ensures regular stool consistency. Pure cellulose, used in some diet formulas, is the main source of insoluble
fiber. It is an essential factor for intestinal peristalsis and is especially used in treatments that require a reduction in calorie intake. Pea
fiber, with its highly solubility, forms a mass that slows intestinal transit and enables the absorption of micronutrients. Dried alfalfa is a good source of micronutrients such as carotene and calcium. Some special prebiotics it contains, such as fructooligosaccharides (FOS) and mannanoligosaccharides (MOS), compete with pathogenic bacteria, play a role in eliminating them and eliminating any toxins, thus benefiting the intestines. Psyllium seeds are rich in absorbable
fiber and ensure optimal absorption in the digestive system. They also support nutrient absorption and ensure regular stool consistency. When selecting the
fiber blend to be used 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 special breeds are prone. N D Ocean Low Grain Cod Adult Cat Food Ingredients This food, which is an Adult Cat Food, The selection of raw materials in N D Ocean Food 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 best products from our contracted suppliers to best meet the nutritional needs of cats. In our entire product range, especially our Vet Life and ND Ocean 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 Food The meat and eggs we carefully select are obtained from certified farms with high quality standards. Our carefully selected ingredients, such as chicken, lamb, cod, and eggs, are obtained from certified farms with high quality standards. Cod is a fish famous for its mild flavor, low fat content, and dense white flesh that falls apart easily. The oil obtained from cod liver is an important source of vitamin A, vitamin D, and omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and docosahexaenoic acid). While oranges are not one of cats' favorite fruits (they love them very much), they help you add plenty of vitamin C to your cat's diet. Vitamin C is very beneficial for your cat's immune system and helps your cat eliminate toxins from its body. It contains essential amino acids such as taurine, methionine, lysine, and cystine. Since cat food products include animal categories and the specific needs of different species, the addition of these amino acids increases the biological value of the protein content in Premium food. The addition of these amino acids allows it to meet the specific needs of different species and animal categories and increases the nutritional biological value of Farmina products. 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 animal categories.

N D Ocean especially prefers chicken and fish oil when choosing fat for its products. 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 the 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 artificial antioxidants used in food, and their effects on pets are still under debate. Numerous studies have shown a link between the values of these ingredients in the body, especially when consumed in high doses, and certain changes in pets' internal organs. As the N D brand, we have decided to add only natural antioxidants to all our formulations. These antioxidants, obtained from natural sources, are added to our entire scale both during the storage of raw materials and during 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 ND Ocean 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. ND Ocean products are enriched with alfalfa, psyllium, rosemary, turmeric, aloe vera, and green tea to stimulate the elimination of toxins and strengthen organs and tissues. Vitamins: Vitamins are essential nutrients for proper nutrition. Vitamins play a crucial role in biological reactions. Vitamin deficiencies can sometimes present specific and obvious symptoms, while in others, they can be vague or simply accompanied by weakness. Therefore, for all vital functions to function properly, appropriate daily intake must be ensured. Minerals: Maximum care and attention is required thanks to the reserves of macro and oligo elements. However, this varies depending on the pet's pathophysiological condition, age, and species. In dietary formulas specifically developed to correct pathological disorders, Farmina Pet Foods places particular emphasis on adjusting the amount of minerals to compensate for the metabolic deficit caused by some pathological disorders and or to preserve the functionality of the relevant organs. Botanical Ingredients Farmina uses botanical compounds that support healthy living in its formulas. These ingredients are used in different combinations in both the healthy pet cat food series and the clinical nutrition diet series. Fruits such as apple, pomegranate, blueberry, cranberry and orange are used in particular. You can also find spinach, carrots, and herbs such as rosemary, aloe vera, turmeric and green tea, which are rich in natural antioxidant sources, in Farmina Low Grain Cat Foods.
