Experience products in this issue-British MAG high-quality formula seaweed powder
When summer comes, I don't know if everyone's master has also ushered in the terrible season of molting. My master, Loki, has lost a lot of hair recently. He sweeps the floor every day and sweeps out a bag of garbage every day. Obviously, compared with the winter, I felt that Loki's hair was a whole layer less. At first, I thought it was the problem of dog food or diet environment, but then I thought it was probably the molting period, which was different from the molting period in childhood. Now I really feel that he has changed into a thin dress.

About Product Basics
This is the bottle cap, there is an anti-counterfeiting code test, and there will be anti-counterfeiting test steps later.
This is the side bottle with detailed ingredient description and analysis, shelf life, production license number and net content manufacturer's information.
On the other side of the bottle, there are detailed information about the recommended dosage and manufacturer, as well as the two-dimensional code of WeChat and the bar code of the product.
This is the bottom of the bottle. It has a production date and an expiration date. The expiration date is two years.
After opening the lid, there is a sealing layer, which protects the seaweed powder inside from leaking out.
There is a measuring spoon in the bottle. You can distribute it according to the suggested dosage of the above bottle. My dog is a medium-sized dog, and the recommended dosage is 3 ~ 4G (one spoon 5g) per day. Loki only feeds him one meal a day, and he can put almost a spoon in one meal. The cat at home is about three months old, and the amount I give her is a quarter of the spoon. You can refer to my dosage above.
To be honest, although the bottle looks much bigger, when I opened it, I found that the seaweed powder inside was like this, and the content of seaweed powder was only about three quarters of the bottle. I estimate that when cats and dogs eat together, it will be finished in less than a month.

After entering the official website (there is a website on the bottle), I quickly found the seaweed powder. After clicking in, I don't know why some pictures are not displayed. Then click Buy Now to pop up the information of Taobao sales. According to Taobao, this is the official flagship store, which has a history of 6 years. The price is 98 yuan, which is the same as the price of e pet mall.
About reviews and sales
Looking at the reviews, the two places are basically good reviews. Looking at the sales volume, the sales volume is good, but the sales volume is larger than that of the e-pet mall. Look at Taobao, many stores sell this seaweed powder, mag is an old brand and a famous brand, so there are many fakes. It is suggested that everyone should go to the official website and regular shopping malls, such as e-pet, which is a relatively large and authoritative place to buy, so as not to buy fake goods to eat bad pet body. Anyway, I trust e pet, the general entrance of things I dare not buy in Taobao or to buy e pet more assured.

2. Zinc
Zinc is one of the essential trace mineral elements for pets, and it is also an important nutrient in pet food. Zinc is an essential trace element for animal body, and it is one of the most functional essential trace elements for animal nutrition found at present. Zinc is an essential trace element to maintain the normal physiological function and biochemical metabolism of animals. It has a wide range of nutritional effects on animals. Zinc deficiency or excess in animals can cause metabolic disorders and other diseases. The importance of
zinc.
1. Zinc and growth
Zinc participates in the synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids and promotes the growth of cells. Without zinc, cells cannot divide normally and bones cannot grow normally.
2. Zinc and taste Zinc
deficiency can easily lead to the aging and shedding of palate epithelial cells and blocking taste buds, resulting in insensitivity of taste, so zinc-deficient pets have a heavy taste, and are picky about food, anorexia, and even pica.
3. Zinc and intelligence
Small pets before the age of 3 is the last period of rapid development of brain cells, cell division and growth and protein synthesis are related to zinc, so zinc is also known as the "source of intelligence", in order to be smart, zinc is essential.
4. Zinc and Vitamin A
Zinc and vitamin A have synergistic absorption, which is very helpful for skin and mucous membrane health and night blindness, giving pets beautiful skin and bright eyes.
5. Zinc and immunity
Zinc affects the synthesis of protein. The amount of protein is closely related to immunity. Protein deficiency and low immunity of pets are closely related to zinc deficiency.
6. Zinc and intestinal mucosa
Adequate zinc can promote the repair of intestinal mucosa and help the recovery of intestinal function!
4.calcium pantothenate
calcium is the fifth most abundant element in the earth's crust and seawater. Calcium intake must be balanced with phosphorus to ensure healthy bone growth and maintenance. Calcium plays two very basic roles in the body: more than 90% of the body's calcium is in the bones and teeth, and together calcium and phosphorus keep their structures strong; calcium is also involved in the transmission of messages between cells and the transmission of nerve impulses. Calcium is found in the bones of mammals, birds and fish and is commonly added to pet food in the form of bone meal. Dairy products also contain a lot of calcium; vegetables such as broccoli and cabbage are also good sources in moderation. Common mineral salt include calcium carbonate, calcium sulfate, and calcium sulfate. The Importance
of
Calcium Calcium, a mineral abundant in pets, makes up the bones and teeth of pets, and is involved in many important growth functions of pets. For example, calcium can maintain the activity of many enzymes and participate in the coagulation function of pets. It can also relieve the excitement of the nervous system and maintain the permeability of the cell membrane.
It
has been said that calcium is the life element of the human body, which is not a kind of praise, but the most basic fact. We all know that 99% of the calcium in pets is deposited in bones and teeth, maintaining the shape and hardness of bones and teeth. Although the lack of calcium in young pets will affect the bone growth of young pets, we should not forget that 100% of calcium and 1% of calcium exist in blood and soft tissue cells. And this part of calcium, although the content is small, but plays the role of four or two sets of kilograms.
This 1% of calcium exists in blood and soft tissue cells, which plays a role in regulating the physiological function of pets. It determines the importance of pet life activities and plays a vital role in blood coagulation. If there is a lack of calcium, the pet will have a blood clotting disorder. Secondly, calcium also acts as a transmitter of nerve and muscle excitation and nerve impulse. If there is a lack of calcium, there will be symptoms of nerve conduction tissue and muscle weakness.
In addition to these, calcium also has an important role in pets, that is, to participate in the activation of enzyme reactions. As we all know, enzymes are catalysts for the metabolism of various substances in pets. If there are problems in metabolism, it will be a fatal blow to the organs of respiratory, digestive, nervous and many other systems.
5. Taurine
pets need a lot of nutrition and energy to support their healthy growth. Among them, taurine is an indispensable nutrition for pets. Especially for pet cats. Adding taurine to cat food can maintain the health of cats, as well as various benefits. The two most important points are to prevent the degeneration of the cat's retina and to ensure the proper functioning of the cat's heart muscles. Cats are prone to life-threatening heart disease if they don't add enough taurine to their food. For example, dilated cardiomyopathy is fatal because the ventricular chambers of the heart are unable to supply blood to the heart effectively, which leads to blood blockage in the heart and heart failure. The importance
of taurine Clinical studies have found that taurine is an essential nutrient for the normal pregnancy and delivery of female cats and the survival and normal development of young cats, and the survival rate of young cats is higher when they eat Gudeng cat goat milk powder. If lacking, it is manifested as low reproductive capacity, abortion, stillbirth and other symptoms, even if the live litter is born, the weight of the kitten is light, the growth rate is significantly reduced, and it is easy to develop abnormally. Studies have also reported that the lack of taurine can affect the reproductive performance of cats, showing an increased incidence of abortion and stillbirth.
In addition, taurine also has serious effects on myocardial function. Studies have shown that taurine deficiency is associated with dilated cardiomyopathy in cats. It has also been clinically found that the concentration of taurine in normal cat myocardium is very high, about 100-250 times that in plasma. The concentration of taurine in the myocardium of cats with dilated cardiomyopathy is very low, and the myocardial function of most cats can be restored to normal by supplementing taurine. Novotny et al. Demonstrated by echocardiography that taurine deficiency in domestic cats leads to myocardial rupture, but not all cats lacking bovine phosphate develop the disease.
Taurine is also closely related to the immune function of cats. It has been reported that there is a considerable amount of taurine in the lymphocytes of cats. In the absence of taurine, the immune function of lymphocytes and neutrophils decreases, the total number of white blood cells in the blood decreases, the proportion of polymorphonuclear cells and mononuclear cells is abnormal, the products of peroxides decrease, the ability to phagocytize and kill Staphylococcus epidermidis decreases, and the content of oligoglobulin in the blood decreases. The morphology of the splenic ganglia and the cells in them were abnormal.
Finally, taurine has a strong relationship with neurological function in cats. Taurine is highly concentrated and metabolically active in the central nervous system of cats and may be an essential nutrient for normal brain development. Chesney's tests suggest that taurine may be one of the special osmotic compounds that plays an important role in maintaining normal brain hydration and the volume of brain cells.
About product comparison and testing
In terms of color, MAG is darker and LIGERN's seaweed powder is lighter.
From the taste point of view, the taste of MAG has a salty taste, salt taste, seaweed taste, it can be said that the seaweed flavor is very strong. The taste of LIGERN is relatively light, like the taste of biscuits, although it has a light seaweed flavor, but it is only very light.
From the surface composition, MAG is pure powder, very fine powder. LIGERN powder has other particles besides green powder, and it is very hard. I don't know what it is. It is coarse powder.
Oil test.
Put the two kinds of powder on the oil-absorbing paper respectively, after rubbing, squeezing and pressing the two kinds of powder, through the oil-absorbing paper, in general, the two kinds of powder did not leave deep oil stains on the oil-absorbing paper, indicating that the oil content of the two kinds of powder is very low, but there is still a difference, that is, MAG left a little light green mark on the paper.
Standing test.
Put the powder into clean water, without stirring, the effect after 10 minutes (as shown above). The powder of MAG settles down and the clear water turns into green water. The powder of LIGERN has also settled down, but the water is still very clear, almost no change. It shows that the content of seaweed in MAG is very high, and only the high content of seaweed powder can change the color of water.
Melting water test. After
stirring, the MAG powder quickly turned dark green, and the surrounding bowl still had fine algae residue. After stirring, LIGERN quickly precipitated again, and the surrounding area was very clean, with almost no residue. It shows that MAG has good meltability. LIGERN contains many other impurities that make it difficult for this seaweed powder to mix with water.
About the palatability test
The first way to eat: because the seaweed powder is a very fine powder, after pouring it directly on the dog food, the dog will breathe small amount of powder when eating, and it will make the powder fly everywhere, so I suggest that I cook some chicken breast strips and sprinkle the seaweed powder evenly, and then let the dog eat after the seaweed powder is soaked by the chicken breast.
The second way to eat: Brew a small amount of goat's milk into the dog food, then sprinkle with seaweed powder, and finally stir well. The
third way to eat (the laziest way): Sprinkle seaweed powder on the dog food and stir it evenly until the powder adheres to the dog food before giving it to the dog.
In fact, the smell of this seaweed powder is very good, generally speaking, dogs will like it. My dog liked it very much and ate it quickly.
The first way to eat it: pour it directly into the cat food and stir it.
The second way to eat: As shown in the picture above, after mixing other things, sprinkle the seaweed powder evenly on it and stir it.
The third way to eat it is to soak a small amount of goat's milk in the cat food, then sprinkle seaweed powder and stir it.
It can be seen that the cat also likes to eat, quickly finished, but the seaweed powder smells a little fishy and salty, I think the cat will generally like it.
About the comparison of effects
Before eating seaweed powder-nose
nose is black, although not particularly black, but at least is not a flower nose has not faded.
A week later. The
nose has not changed much. Maybe it's because Loki's nose is black, so there's no change yet.
Before eating seaweed powder-the elbow
had been shaved due to skin disease.
A week later.
It can be seen that the hair on the elbow grows very fast, and the place where it was bald because of the skin disease is now growing new hair.
Before eating seaweed powder-thigh
, the fattest part of the thigh (right leg), recently I don't know why the hair is very sparse, you can clearly see the skin.
A week later.
Sure enough, the hair grew faster, although there was still a little bit of the right leg where the hair was sparse, but it could be seen that the hair was much longer than before. The effect is obvious.
