Effectiveness of dry hypoallergenic grain-free nature’s protection superior care feed for celiac disease in dogs

Celiac disease (gluten enteropathy) in dogs is a genetically determined immune-mediated disease resulting from intolerance to gluten – the protein part of cereal crops (wheat, barley and rye) that remains in flour after the starch has been removed. This mixture of proteins differs in solubility and ability to be extracted. Generally, wheat gluten in dog food is well digested but has low nutritional value due to its low lysine content, it is a suitable but not necessary ingredient in dog food. The Irish setter, terriers, schnauzers and cocker spaniels are main breeds of dogs that are considered to be more prone to celiac disease, the characteristic syndrome of which is malabsorption. Dogs of any age could suffer from this disease. In order to diagnose diseases with clinical signs of malabsorption syndrome, a comprehensive examination of the animal is recommended, including blood analysis, intestinal biopsy and other special studies. Treatment of animals with celiac disease should include the introduction of antimicrobial, enzyme, probiotic and, if necessary, glucocorticosteroid agents against the background of lifelong use of an agglutenous diet. Preventive measures for the progression of celiac disease with malabsorption syndrome and the development of severe irreversible complications, including T-cell lymphoma and other types of malignant neoplasms, are the timely detection of the disease and the appointment of an aglutenic diet.
