Your pet’s gut is home to over 70% of its immune system, which is the network of cells that help fight off diseases and illness. Not surprisingly, this means that what your dog or cat is eating can have a dramatic impact on the strength and overall functionality of his or her immune system. The right nutrients delivered in the right way can lead to a robust immune system ready for anything.
To help you provide your furry friend with a strong defense system both inside and outside, we’ve compiled an Ultimate Guide to boosting your pet’s immunity with biologically-appropriate meals, toppers, and custom Primal recipes!
Potential Signs of a Weakened Immune System
- More prone to recurrent infections
- Failed response to conventional antibiotic treatments
- Stunted growth
