狗狗愛吃的牛肉有甚麼營養?

What nutrients are in the beef that dogs love to eat?

Beef is one of the foods that dogs love to eat; it has a rich and delicious flavor.Beef contains high-quality and premium protein with low fat. The low fat content, combined with high nutrients, makes it easy for dogs to digest and absorb, greatly aiding in growth and development, body repair, and muscle synthesis.

The main nutrients in beef are:

Creatine

The creatine content in beef is higher than in any other food, which is particularly helpful for muscle growth and strength enhancement.

Vitamin B6

Can enhance immunity, promote protein metabolism and synthesis.

Carnitine

Supports fat metabolism, produces branched-chain amino acids, and is an amino acid that plays an important role in muscle growth.
Potassium and protein

Beef is rich in potassium, and low levels of potassium

can inhibit protein synthesis and the production of growth hormones, thereby affecting muscle growth.Beef is rich in protein: 4oz of lean beef can provide 22 grams of high-quality protein.

Zinc, magnesium - zinc

Antioxidants that help synthesize proteins and promote muscle growth.Zinc, in conjunction with glutamate and vitamin B6, can enhance the immune system.Magnesium supports protein synthesis and enhances muscle strength.

Iron

Iron is an essential mineral for blood formation.

Vitamin B12

Crucial for cell production, it promotes the metabolism of branched-chain amino acids, thereby providing the energy the body needs.

A raw meat diet can improve dogs' skin allergies.

A recent university study on the improvement of dog skin allergies through a raw meat diet has been published. The University of Helsinki in Finland has preliminarily discovered that diet can affect dog skin genes, which directly activate the immune system, antioxidants, and improve inflammation.

The study found that dogs on a raw meat diet can activate their skin's immune defenses, allowing for normal lipid metabolism and keratinocyte proliferation in the skin. It also activates genes that control antioxidant production and anti-inflammatory capabilities. In simple terms, it improves the metabolism and circulation of the dog's skin, making it less prone to allergies.
