The two most important points in the therapy of overweight are the reduction of energy intake and the increase of physical activity, as far as the dog's health condition allows. In addition to an adjusted diet with reduced fat content and an increased raw fiber supplement to provide the dog with a better feeling of satiety, extensive walks, preferably in combination with swimming or physiotherapeutic support, should have the highest priority.
Nevertheless, the effect of weight loss can be positively supported by the targeted use of dietary supplements. L-Carnitine stimulates the β-oxidation of fatty acids. Thus, it promotes energy production from fatty acids in the muscle area. It therefore promotes fat burning and modifies body composition in favor of muscle mass. Since skeletal muscle has a higher energy consumption than body fat even at rest, an increase in muscle mass can promote energy expenditure and thus help prevent or reduce obesity. Therefore, the addition of L-Carnitine to reduction diets is often recommended to influence body composition. Positive effects regarding weight loss and the stimulation of fat breakdown have been observed in obese patients.
Vitamin E has a similarly positive effect on muscle integrity. It also acts as an antioxidant, capturing free oxygen radicals. The trace element zinc also helps support the immune system. Especially due to the fact that adipose tissue is not "dead" storage tissue, but produces numerous hormone-like substances that have inflammatory – that is, inflammation-promoting – effects, it is appropriate to support the immune system of obese patients in this way.

The two most important points in the therapy of obesity are the reduction of energy intake and the increase in physical activity, as far as the dog's health condition allows. In addition to adapted feeding with a reduced fat content and an increased crude fiber supplement to provide the dog with a better feeling of satiety, extensive walks, preferably combined with swimming or physiotherapeutic support, should have top priority. Nevertheless, the effect of weight loss can be positively supported by the targeted use of dietary supplements. L-carnitine stimulates the ß-oxidation of fatty acids, thus promoting energy production from fatty acids in the muscle area. It promotes fat burning and modifies body composition in favor of muscle mass. Since skeletal muscle has a higher energy consumption than body fat even at rest, its increase can promote energy expenditure and thus prevent obesity or help in its reduction. Therefore, the addition of L-carnitine to reduction diets is widely advocated to influence body composition. Positive effects on weight loss and fat breakdown stimulation have been observed in obese patients. Vitamin E has a similarly positive effect on muscle integrity. It also acts as an antioxidant, thus neutralizing free oxygen radicals. The trace element zinc also helps support the immune system. Especially due to the fact that adipose tissue is not "dead" storage tissue, but produces numerous hormone-like substances that, among other things, have an inflammatory - i.e. inflammation-promoting - effect, it is appropriate to support the immune system of obese patients in this way.

2011 gegründet hatten unsere Eltern - Traudi & Hans Hibler - ein ganz klares Ziel: die Jahrelange Erfahrung aus dem Fleischhandel in die Tierbranche einfließen zu lassen und damit auch unsere liebsten Vierbeiner zu verführen. Daraus entstand der Gedanken einer eigenen Produktion im Herzen Deutschlands. Über die Jahre hinweg hat sich nun auch mit Philipp & Maximilian die 2. Generation voll eingebunden - und die nächste Generation steht bereits in den Startlöchern. Seid gespannt auf mehr ...
