Full interview
1. From your experience as a canine nutritionist, what role does diet play in the health of a dog's skin and coat?
Diet undoubtedly plays a fundamental role in the health of hair and skin, as the amino acids, fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals contained in food are the basis for the construction and maintenance of skin structure. From my experience, I have seen how switching to a well-planned natural diet can alleviate and cure symptoms of dermatitis and allergies in the skin, improve the appearance of the coat, stop hair loss, and even stimulate hair growth in dogs with alopecia.
2. When a dog presents with skin problems or excessive hair loss, what nutritional deficiencies could be behind these symptoms?
We could be talking about deficiencies in Omega 3 or Omega 6 fatty acids (specifically EPA, DHA, gamma-linoleic acid, and Linoleic acid), Zinc deficiency, Vitamin E, and even B complex vitamins.
3. You have recommended our supplement to some of your clients. In which cases do you usually suggest its use and what benefits have you observed in the dogs that take it?
Yes, I highly recommend the supplement, both for dogs with skin and coat problems and for healthy dogs, as its formulation acts as a natural multivitamin to support raw or cooked homemade diets. Its algae provide antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals, its herbs contain B complex vitamins, and its seeds are rich in minerals and fatty acids. I have observed improvements in scratching, skin appearance, and hair loss.

4. Beyond dermatological problems, why would you recommend this supplement as a multivitamin in a dog's daily diet?
The supplement provides multivitamin algae (rich in iodine, antioxidants, and with anti-inflammatory benefits), as well as herbs with B complex vitamins and seeds rich in minerals and essential fatty acids.
5. In terms of preventive nutrition, how can a supplement like this help maintain optimal health in dogs of all ages?
It provides the necessary nutrients for optimal body function at all life stages, strengthening the immune system and enhancing the longevity of our dogs.
6. For owners looking to improve their dogs' diet, what other nutritional advice would you give along with the use of this supplement?
It is ideal to complement it with a balanced diet that includes high biological value proteins, organ meats, vegetables, suitable fruits, eggs, and oily fish.
