GOLD

Het ultieme darmflora supplement voor honden en katten

BIOTICS® ICU

Medical treatment or surgery usually requires the administration of medications.

Most medicines (see study in Nature and study on 1,000 non-antibiotics), but certainly antibiotics, NSAIDs, stomach medicines, etc., have a catastrophic effect on the intestinal flora and thus on the beneficial influence of the intestinal flora on the body. Recovery can take months.

Administering GOLDBIOTICS ICU, preferably a few days before, but certainly during and after the treatment period, will largely limit this damage.

There is a known relationship  between the intestinal flora of dogs and their feces. When a dog’s intestinal flora is not in balance, this can lead to poor eating and diarrhea. This can be caused by several factors, including an unsuitable diet for the dog, stress, illness or medications.

Eating dog feces, also called coprophagia, is a common and often concerning behavior.

Disturbed intestinal flora can contribute to coprophagia in dogs. An imbalance in the intestinal flora can cause the smell and taste of the feces to change, making it more attractive to the dog. In addition, eating manure can also serve to restore intestinal flora, because feces can be a source of beneficial bacteria.

Disturbed intestinal flora can contribute to abnormal behavior in animals. Research has shown that there may be a link between an imbalance in intestinal flora and symptoms such as depression, anxiety and aggressive behavior.

The intestinal flora plays an important role in the communication between the intestine and the nervous system, the so-called intestinal-brain axis. An imbalance in the intestinal flora can lead to changes in this communication and contribute to the development of neurological disorders.

Skin: Healthy intestinal flora contributes to healthy skin in dogs. An imbalance in the intestinal flora can lead to inflammation in the body, which can damage the skin. For example, allergic or atopic dogs often have an imbalance in their intestinal flora. Improving a dog’s intestinal flora can help prevent or treat these skin conditions.

Joints: Disturbed intestinal flora can also contribute to inflammation of a dog’s joints, which can lead to conditions such as arthritis. Research has shown that restoring gut flora in dogs with arthritis can help reduce symptoms and improve joint health.

Liver: The liver plays an important role in breaking down and removing toxins from the body. Disturbed intestinal flora can disrupt liver function and contribute to the accumulation of toxins in the dog’s body. This can lead to conditions such as fatty liver disease and hepatitis. Restoring a dog’s intestinal flora can help prevent or treat these conditions.

Disturbed immunity in dogs is often associated with intestinal dysbiosis, i.e. an imbalance in the intestinal flora. The immune system plays an important role in protecting the body against diseases and infections, and healthy intestinal flora is essential for the proper functioning of the immune system.

An imbalance in a dog’s intestinal flora can lead to a weakened immune system, making the animal more vulnerable to infections and diseases. For example, dogs with an overgrowth of harmful bacteria in their intestines are at increased risk for infections such as parvovirus and gastroenteritis. An imbalance in intestinal flora can also contribute to allergies and autoimmune diseases in dogs.
