Ingredients & Functions

MCT Oil (C8/C10)
MCT oil provides rapidly available energy from medium-chain fatty acids (caprylic acid C8 and capric acid C10). These fatty acids are particularly easy to digest and are directly utilized by the body. In canine nutrition, MCT oil can support energy supply and contribute to vitality and mental performance.

Liquid Sunflower Lecithin
Sunflower lecithin is a natural source of valuable phospholipids, which play an important role in cell membranes and fat metabolism. As a natural emulsifier, lecithin also improves the absorption of fat-soluble nutrients, thus supporting optimal nutrient utilization in the dog's organism.

Marine Oil (Fish Oil, Refined)
Refined fish oil provides high-quality omega-3 fatty acids, especially EPA and DHA. These essential fatty acids support skin and coat, can promote anti-inflammatory processes in the body, and contribute to normal heart and brain function in dogs.

Refined Olive Oil
Olive oil is rich in monounsaturated fatty acids and natural antioxidants. It supports energy metabolism, can contribute to skin and coat health, and supplements the fatty acid supply in the daily diet of dogs.

Milk Thistle Oil (Lipophilic Extract)
Milk thistle oil contains valuable plant compounds from milk thistle, traditionally used to support liver function. In canine nutrition, the extract can promote natural metabolism and contribute to supporting liver health.

Glycerin (Food Grade)
Food-grade glycerin serves as a carrier for nutrients and supports a stable product formulation. It ensures that the ingredients are evenly distributed and contributes to a pleasant consistency of the recipe.

Vitamin A
Vitamin A is an essential vitamin for numerous bodily functions in dogs. It supports eyesight, strengthens the immune system, and contributes to the health of skin, mucous membranes, and cell growth.

Vitamin D3
Vitamin D3 plays an important role in calcium and phosphorus metabolism. It supports the building and maintenance of strong bones and teeth and simultaneously contributes to normal immune system function.

Vitamin E
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that protects cells from oxidative stress. In canine nutrition, it supports the immune system, contributes to skin and coat health, and protects sensitive fatty acids in the body.

Rosemary Extract
Rosemary extract is a natural, plant-based antioxidant. It protects sensitive oils from oxidation and helps to maintain the freshness and stability of the product.

Bacillus Subtilis vs. Other Cultures

Unlike many other bacterial cultures, Bacillus Subtilis stands out due to its high stability and particular resilience in everyday life. While some probiotic cultures react sensitively to external influences, this bacterial strain remains significantly more robust. BSN® utilizes exactly this advantage for high-quality dog probiotics, where consistent quality is particularly important. Instead of just short-term support, Bacillus Subtilis provides sustainable assistance for the gut flora and long-term promotion of digestion and well-being.
