Dog and cat gastritis : cure and prevent it with Forza10 dietetic aliments line from SANYpet!

What is gastritis?
Gastritis is an inflammation of the stomach, very common in cats and dogs. The most common signs of gastritis in cats and dogs include an exaggerated desire to eat grass, vomiting food (or more often on an empty stomach), burping and inflammation with the consequent risk of infection. Inflammation is in fact ideal breeding ground for germ infections (Helicobacter).

So gastritis is not caused by germs?
That’s correct! An inflammation provides the ideal breeding ground for infections: in other words the germs normally present in that area reproduce in an abnormal way thanks to the inflammation.  Infection therefore, is not the cause but the effect of the problem.

What causes the initial inflammatory state of the stomach? 
The explanation is simple and surprising!
Apart from existing and known causes, nowadays one of the most frequent causes of gastritis is intolerance to one or more foods.
Food intolerance is a growing pathology in both veterinary and human medicine, and the inflammation of the most sensitive part (target organ) is the way the body responds.
The inflammation of the target organ often represents the only visible manifestation of food intolerance.
If the target organ of food intolerance to one or more foods is the stomach, the only valid solution to treat the consequent gastritis enteritis and prevent a relapse is a change in diet.
In fact if food, which a body recognises as toxic, is eaten even only once it will cause an inflammatory process that will last a few days. If that same food continues to be included in the diet the inflammatory process will become chronic.

Is this the reason why continuous relapses occur despite pharmacological treatments?
Yes, as germs are not the cause but the effect of the problem, very often the only way to effectively treat gastritis and prevent relapses is with a specific diet after having identified the food intolerance.

What is food intolerance?
When the body recognises the substances ingested as toxic or harmful they are eliminated through an inflammatory process. This reaction is called food intolerance.

Is an inflammatory process an illness?
Absolutely not! On the contrary it is the body’s main healing process.  The body uses the inflammation process to “burn” all the substances it recognises as toxic and harmful.

What can cats and dogs be intolerant to?
Extensive research carried out by SANYpet veterinaries has shown that meat produced using intensive breeding systems is the main cause of most food intolerances.

Why meat obtained using intensive breeding systems?
Due to the frequent presence, especially in chicken and pork, of residus of antibiotics used (in compliance with the law) to avoid diseases.  These pharmacologically active residues are eliminated by the body through an inflammatory process.

Gastritis … what a problem!

SANYpet, for the solution to food-related gastritis, has created two dietary products:

A) Initial phase (for use during the acute phase): FORZA10 Intestinal Active (for dogs of all the sizes),  is a specific dietary pet food of the Nutraceutical Line that can reverse the food-related gastritis over a period of one to four weeks
