A healthy digestive system is an important part of your dog's overall wellbeing. From absorbing nutrients from their food to supporting their natural defences, the gut plays an important role in keeping your dog healthy.
FORRESTERS Peptide+ Digestive Care has been specially formulated to provide targeted nutritional support for your dog's digestive system, with highly digestible hydrolysed turkey protein, collagen peptides and functional postbiotics.
The Power of Peptides
One of the key features of FORRESTERS Peptide+ Digestive Care is its use of Freshtrusion HDP (Highly Digestible Protein).
The process involves cooking freshly prepared meat and fish ingredients alongside a natural enzyme, which breaks proteins down into smaller chains called peptides.
These smaller peptides provide amino acid building blocks that can be readily absorbed and used by the body.
For the digestive system, these nutrients can help support the intestinal epithelial cells that form the lining of the gut.
Supporting the Intestinal Barrier
The intestinal lining acts as an important barrier between the contents of the digestive system and the rest of the body.
The cells within this lining are connected by structures known as tight junctions, which help maintain the integrity of the intestinal barrier.
Collagen peptides can provide nutritional support for this barrier, while hydrolysed turkey peptides provide amino acids that help support the renewal and maintenance of intestinal epithelial cells.
Together, these ingredients help support a healthy intestinal environment.
Supporting a Healthy Gut
FORRESTERS Peptide+ Digestive Care combines several functional ingredients designed to support different aspects of digestive health.
🦠 TruPet™ Postbiotic
The recipe includes TruPet™ postbiotic, containing key postbiotic components including amino acids and nucleotides.
These components help support digestive health and normal immune function, while postbiotic supplementation can also help nourish the gut microbiome.
🦃 Hydrolysed Turkey Protein
Freshly prepared hydrolysed turkey makes up 26% of the recipe, alongside hydrolysed dried turkey.
The turkey protein has been broken down into smaller peptides, providing a highly digestible source of protein while helping to reduce the likelihood of adverse reactions to dietary proteins.
🦴 Collagen Peptides
Collagen peptides provide nutritional building blocks that help support the intestinal barrier and the health of the gut lining.
🌾 Lignocellulose
The recipe contains lignocellulose, a source of fibre that helps support healthy digestion, nutrient absorption and stool quality.
It can also help produce well-formed stools, making it a useful addition to a diet focused on digestive health.
Supporting the Gut Microbiome
Your dog's gut contains a complex community of microorganisms known as the gut microbiome.
Supporting a healthy balance within this community is an important part of digestive wellbeing.
The postbiotic ingredients in Peptide+ Digestive Care help nourish the gut microbiome, while also helping to reduce compounds associated with unpleasant faecal odour.
Designed With Sensitive Dogs in Mind
FORRESTERS Peptide+ Digestive Care uses hydrolysed turkey protein, which has been broken down into smaller peptides.
This can help reduce the likelihood of dietary sensitivity reactions compared with intact proteins, making it an option worth considering for dogs with dietary sensitivities.
The recipe is also formulated without grain, making it suitable for dogs whose diets need to avoid grains.
If your dog regularly experiences digestive problems or suspected food sensitivities, we recommend speaking to your vet before making changes to their diet.

A Complete Approach to Digestive Health
FORRESTERS Peptide+ Digestive Care combines hydrolysed turkey peptides, collagen peptides, TruPet™ postbiotic and functional fibre to provide targeted nutritional support for your dog's digestive system.
