Microbiota, Enteroendocrine Cells and Weight Loss in Cats
Gilor, C.
This article reviews the role of enteroendocrine cells as sensors of the digestive luminal content and their effect on different hormones in the pathophysiology of obesity in obese cats.
Talk about the importance of doing a complete nutritional evaluation of the patient before instituting a dietary change in any patient, especially an older dog or cat. The patient evaluation, the current diet, and feeding management should be included in this edvaluation. Many diseases in senior pets, as cognitive dysfunction, osteoarthritis, and obesity are “diet-sensitive”, meaning that diet can play a role in managing the effects of the disease.
A look at how fozen chicken effect digestibility, bioavailability and body weight maintenance. The article illustrate the effects of the Purina proprietary technology on higher protein and fat digestibility, better absorption of essential fatty acid and higher bioavailability of some limiting amino acids such as lysine and arginine thanks to 14-25% of total protein content coming from chicken.

Pretend to determine whether the chronic ingestion of fermentable dietary fiber regulates
the expression and synthesis of proglucagon-derived peptides in the distal intestine. This expression can modulate glucose homeostasis, having positive effects in some special situations.
