How does Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NC NeuroCare Canine Formula work?
Purina Pro Plan Veterinary Diets NC NeuroCare Canine Formula adds ketones as an energy source for the brain, an approach used extensively in children with epilepsy. Dogs readily metabolize MCTs to produce ketones, scientists and researchers believe MCTs may have direct anti-seizure effects by blocking certain receptors in the brain. Purina NeuroCare formula also features eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), antioxidants and B vitamins, which research has shown can help dogs with cognitive dysfunction syndrome (CDS).
