Microorganism

When the term "microorganism" is used in relation to an ingredient for dog food, it refers to very small organisms that are invisible to the naked eye. These microorganisms can be bacteria, yeasts or certain types of fungi. They are often added to dog food because they can have various health benefits. For example, they can aid digestion, strengthen the immune system or help maintain a healthy intestinal flora. It is important to note that not all microorganisms are beneficial for dogs; therefore, their selection and use in dog food is strictly regulated and based on scientific evidence.
