CULT Food Science Highlights Second Proprietary Ingredient with Enhanced Nutrition For Pet Food
CULT Food Science Corp., a pioneer in the investment, development and commercialization of cellular agriculture technologies and products, has announced details on Bflora, a proprietary probiotic blend specifically designed for the gastrointestinal systems of dogs and cats.
Bflora is made of four strains of research-proven beneficial bacteria to help create and maintain a healthy gastrointestinal tract for pets. The functionality of Bflora is aided through the digestive tract by our patented high-protein yeast, Bmmune. This functional blend of probiotics is unique to the Noochies! brand of products, the world’s first freeze-dried, high-protein and nutrient-rich foods for dogs and cats that are made without factory farming. Noochies! pre-order campaign is currently live through Noochies! website for both consumers and retail distributors at the following link: Noochies.
“Bflora is an example of the innovation that can happen in pet foods to benefit the health of both cats and dogs. It is one of many innovations in our stable at CULT that we are using to bring better choices to the public,” said Lejjy Gafour, CEO of CULT.
Commercial probiotics for companion animals typically have 1-10 Billion CFU/g. A suggested serving of Bflora provides pets with about 15.8 billion CFU/g of beneficial probiotics to support the health of both cats and dogs.
“We formulate pet foods with very high quality and sustainability standards and when we don’t find ingredients that meet those standards, we create new ingredients,” said Joshua Errett, VP of Product Development at CULT. “Our scientist-formulated probiotic is one of our foundational ingredients at Noochies! – we are super focused on the immunity, digestion and longevity of our cats and dogs.”
A growing amount of research points to probiotics being a high value addition to a dog or cat’s diet. A pet’s gastrointestinal tract contains about 70 percent of their immune system, making it a vital first defense against pathogens from accessing the rest of the body. By normalizing the conditions in the digestive system, probiotics allow the immune system to function properly. It is also beneficial to the digestive system, with probiotics commonly used to treat stomach irritation.
Noochies! combines Bflora with a prebiotic and a postbiotic in its Wellness Sprinkles supplement to create a gut health trifecta.
Availability of Bflora products will be announced in the near future.
