About this Lecture
Gastrointestinal issues are very common problem in dogs and cats presenting to a veterinary hospital or clinic. The GI tract could be considered its own internal ecosystem. The GI microbiome is an intestinal ecosystem consisting of microbes that live symbiotically with the host GI tract. Besides the normal GI cells, there are numerous microorganisms that live within this space providing benefits to the body. We will look at the functions of the microbiome. We will also discuss prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics and the positive impact they have on the GI Health.
