Here’s a comparison between Alpteses (taken from PetDiatrics’ website) and NaturVet’s Digestive Enzymes.
Alpha Amilase 2320 SKBU
Lipase 210 LU
Cellulose 75 CMCU
Protease 22100 PU
Bacillus Coagulant 100 million CFU
As you can see, the units are different and I am not at all familiar with them, so I guess I cannot find any basis to compare. If anyone can help with the comparison, I would greatly appreciate it.
Coincidentally, I had already restarted Indy on NaturVet’s this morning, but later when we took Heidi to the vet’s for her wound, the vet recommended Alpteses for Indy, for 10 days.
So I decided to try Alpteses for 10 days. Indy was willing eat his meal laced with Alpteses for lunch, but by dinner, he clearly did not like the smell and did not finish his meal (thus, not finishing the full dosage of the Alpteses).
Now, I’ve decided to put the Alpteses powder into capsules and pill Indy instead as I want him to get the full dosage of the Alpteses (one sachet per day, divided into 2 or 3 times with meals). One sachet can be nicely divided into 3 capsules, so that works very well as Indy has 3 square meals per day.
Meanwhile, there has been no stools today.
I also joined a raw-feeding FB group and the members have been extremely helpful and supportive.
