Guinea Pig is formulated to focus on the most prominent health problems caused by food. Guinea pigs have the habit of first eating the tasty bits out of mixed food. Because of this they do not always get all the necessary nutrients. By using one type of kibble, the guinea pigs will ingest an even amount of nutrients, preventing nutritional shortcomings.
Guinea Pig contributes to natural dental wear, because of the kibbles’ tough structure. This also helps to prevent sharp edges on molars to a certain level. When developing Guinea Pig, the possible development of kidney problems was also taken into account. The lower phosphorous content prevents deposits of calcium phosphate in the kidneys. The relatively high fibre content in the food stimulates the intestine, creates a feeling of fullness, drives out swallowed hairs and helps to prevent diarrhoea.
Keep in mind that the most important food source for your guinea pig is hay. Fresh hay and clean water should be available at all times.
