When we look for high-quality food for our pets, one of the ingredients most valued by users is salmon oil. Its richness in essential fatty acids, vitamins, and functional nutrients makes it a perfect ally for the overall health of dogs and cats. Aware of this, at Danna Pet Food we have incorporated salmon oil into several of our formulas in order to take advantage of its additional benefits.
Why is it such a valuable ingredient?
Salmon oil is a natural source of essential omega-3 fatty acids, such as eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), found in oily fish. Dogs and cats cannot produce these types of fatty acids on their own or in sufficient quantities, so they must be obtained through food. These are their main benefits:
1. Healthy skin and coat. Omega-3 helps maintain healthier skin, reducing dryness, skin inflammation, and itching. It also contributes to a shinier, stronger coat.
2. Anti-inflammatory function. EPA and DHA help regulate and reduce inflammation when it is excessive or chronic. This is beneficial for pets with joint problems, allergies, or chronic diseases. In adults and seniors, it acts as a natural anti-inflammatory, helping to reduce joint pain, improve mobility, and prevent osteoarthritis. It is especially beneficial in large breeds or animals predisposed to joint problems.
3. Cardiovascular health. They help improve circulation, reduce blood pressure, and maintain adequate blood lipid levels. They can help reduce triglycerides and improve the lipid profile—parameters that measure the amount of fat—in dogs with heart problems.
4. Improved immune system. Omega-3s have a positive effect on immune function, strengthening the immune system and improving the body’s ability to fight disease, which is important during growth or in old age. This translates into greater resistance and recovery from illness.
5. Healthy vision. They are key components for the retina. In early stages, they improve visual development in puppies and kittens.
6. Facilitates digestibility and nutrient absorption. By providing quality fats, they facilitate the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) and promote a healthier digestive tract.
7. Supports brain function. They stimulate memory, learning ability, and neurological development in puppies and kittens. In adults and seniors, they help maintain healthy cognitive function, preventing age-related mental decline.

- Functional ingredients. Our recipes also include prebiotics (FOS, MOS), chondroitin, glucosamine, and other elements that work synergistically with salmon oil to improve digestion, the immune system, and joint health.
