A gift for pet owners, Alanine makes feeding stress-free!

November 22, 2022

Today, pets have become a part of many families as children, family members or friends. They are one of the pleasures of our daily life, a good way to relieve stress and cure anxiety. Because of this, proper nutrition and the health of pets concerns every pet owner. So, how do you choose a natural and healthy petfood? Here we highlight an All-Nature Amino Acid.

Food attractants – good or bad?

During manufacturing of petfood, modern production processes will greatly reduce the flavor of the food itself. The addition of food attractants is precisely to make it easier to eat, so as to obtain the necessary nutrients.Many pet owners are concerned about food attractants because some of them are just the chemical flavors or high salt, cannot meet the nutritional needs of dogs and cats, but show the illusion that dogs and cats love to eat, leading to a vicious circle of malnutrition. However, Alanine, as a natural and healthy Amino Acid, has zero negative effects.

High quality petfood mate- Alanine

Alanine is a natural amino acid with sweet and umami flavors.The advantages of Alanine—it’s icing on the cake for premium petfood with high meat content and high quality ingredients. It will not only increase palatability, inhibit sour taste of organic acids in pet food, but also participate in the metabolism in the pet body, prevent the obesity caused by excessive pet calories.

As a pet food attractant, Alanine provides a certain flavor through the Maillard reaction to enhance the palatability of all kinds of petfood (wet and dry). Manufacturers can pre-blend Alanine with chicken liver powder (or chicken liver, animal offal) with other raw ingredients or add directly in final products. On the other hand, among all amino acids, Alanine does not easily oxidize like other Amino Acids (When Amino Acids oxidize they can actually make the Pet less attracted to their food). Therefore, adding Alanine to pet food can effectively reduce the problem of poor palatability caused by the flavor variation of raw materials. In short, pet food with Alanine can promote appetite and ensure that pets absorb high-quality petfood with proper nutrients. Pets eat well, and are happy, and we all know a happy pet equals happy pet owners.
