Does your pet deal with epilepsy or Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome? If they do, boost their health and wellness with the Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NC NeuroCare Canine Formula Dry Dog Food. This food is formulated with brain-benefitting ingredients, including medium-chain triglyceride oil, which has been proven to decrease seizure activity. Not only that, but the ingredients in this dry dog food also work to maintain lean muscle mass, a healthy immune system and brain health. Use this dry dog food alongside their veterinarian therapies to deliver all-around care and support.How it Works
Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NC NeuroCare Canine Formula employs a method extensively used in epileptic children - adding ketones for a source of energy to the brain. Dogs easily metabolize MCTs that produce ketones. Researchers and scientists have theorized that MCTs block certain brain receptors, offering a direct anti-seizure response. This formula also offers B vitamins, antioxidants, DHA (docosahexaenoic acid), and EPA (eicosapentaenoic acid). These ingredients have been proven through research to improve the condition of dogs suffering from CDS (cognitive dysfunction syndrome).
