Microbiome Support Supplement

Synbiotic refers to the combination of pre, pro and postbiotics. Prebiotics are fibres that support and feed existing bacteria in the gut, whereas probiotics contain live cultures that are added to the gut. Postbiotics are basically the 'waste' that is created when live cultures (probiotics) feed off prebiotics. These are beneficial in the balancing of bacteria within the gut microbiome.

An unbalanced microbiome, or dysbiosis, can manifest itself as a long list of symptoms, since the microbiome impacts so much of your dog's body and its inner processes. These symptoms can include diarrhoea, vomiting, weight struggles, bad breath, foul flatulence, skin issues, joint issues and even behaviour issues like stress and anxiety. However, it is possible for your dog to have no symptoms at all, but due to how the balance can be knocked by so many internal and external factors, you can never assume that your dog has a healthy gut microbiome. The only way to really rule out dysbiosis and assess the balance of their microbiome is to conduct a dog Gut Health Test .

Supplements are certainly not a one-stop quick fix, and work gradually to better your dog's gut over time. Results will vary depending on your pooch and their symptoms, but typically, people start to see results within the first 2 months. If you're concerned about the effectiveness of your dog's supplements, be sure to contact our team at [email protected] The best way to track your dog's results on our supplements is to do a Gut Health Test . This way, you can receive a supplement plan that's tailored to your dog's specific needs, and after 6 months, perform a retest to see the impact and whether further action is needed.

This supplement is aimed at supporting dogs with digestive challenges, help maintain gut function, better nutrient absorption and your dogs overall wellbeing. For a better outlook on whether this supplement could help your dog explore our Gut Health Test which will give an in-depth look at your dogs gut microbiome and give results tailored specifically to your dog.

Yes any breed can use this and any age from 12 weeks old can take this supplement. However, please check with a veterinarian before feeding to pregnant or nursing dogs.

The microbiome is the name given to the collection of microbes, mostly bacteria, but also fungi and protozoa, that exist within your dog’s gut. It is a diverse and complex microbial community which can directly affect health and wellbeing. We know that 90% of a human’s body cells are microbes, with only 10% being human cells – it’s just that human cells are markedly larger than the microbes. It’s similar for our four-legged friends. Testing the microbiome gives us an idea of exactly which bacteria are present in your dog’s gut and this can help indicate existing or future health problems. See our Gut Health Test Kit here.
