FortiFlora: Nutritional Supplement for Cats & Dogs

  

Intestinal problems are one of the most common reasons dogs and cats are brought to their veterinarians.  The normal intestinal tract of dogs and cats is home to thousands of different types of bacteria, both beneficial and harmful.  In a healthy intestine, these bacteria are in balance.  


In many cases of loose stools, the normal balance of bacteria in the intestine is upset.  One way to help re-establish a normal intestinal balance is to feed a nutritional supplement containing a probiotic.  Probioltics are live beneficial bacteria that promote intestinal balance.  



FortiFlora
FortiFlora is a nutritional supplement made for dogs and cats and has been formulated to promote intestinal health and balance.  FortiFlora works by increasing the number of beneficial bacteria, which help to protect the intestine from harmful bacteria and pathogens.  FortiFlora also promotes a healthy immune system.
