Carbohydrates

Dogs are primarily carnivores. However, for a healthy, balanced diet they still require plant-based carbohydrates.

When they are correctly solubilised, the plant components are well tolerated. In the wild, solubilised carbohydrates are eaten in the stomach contents of the prey.

For BELCANDO® dry dog food we prepare the raw materials using gentle steam and brief pressure for metabolic uptake.
