Probiotics Formula
- High
in marine protein and a rich assortment of vitamins and minerals
- Enhanced
with Entice™ to attract finicky eaters and enhance palatability
- Promotes
nutrient uptake, reduces waste, and supports the immune system
NutriDiet® Marine Plus Flakes is a premium and nutritionally
balanced diet formulated to meet the requirements of all marine fish. It
contains only the highest quality ingredients including fish, plankton, squid,
and shrimp. As with all of the Seachem NutriDiets, Marine Plus Flakes have
Chlorella Algae as an exceptional source of a broad range of vitamins, amino
acids as well as all other nutrients required for animal life. Chlorella Algae
is considered a potential super food that far surpasses the nutrients delivered
by Spirulina Algae common to other diets. It is enhanced with Entice™ to
attract finicky eaters and enhance palatability. Additionally, Marine Plus
Flakes contain GarlicGuard™ as an appetite stimulant.
The high levels of Vitamin C in the diet are especially
important for the health of marine fish. Vitamin C is a cofactor in the
processes necessary for the formation of connective tissue, scar tissue in
wound repair, and bone matrix. This is a difficult vitamin for fish to acquire
in their natural diet, but is critical in addressing healing and growth issues.
Marine Plus Flakes also contain probiotics which helps the
digestive system of fish and inverts by promoting nutrient uptake, reducing
waste, and supporting the immune system.
Chlorella
It is an attractive food source because, and has been deemed
a “Super-Food” as it is high in protein and other essential nutrients. When
dried; it is about 45% protein, 20% fat, 20% carbohydrate, 5% fiber, and
abundant in minerals and vitamins and satisfies all of the requirements of a
healthy and balanced fish diet as established by the National Academy of
Sciences. It is the highest-known source of chlorophyll. While these are all
beneficial, the greatest value of chlorella lies in a fascinating ingredient
called Chlorella Growth Factor (CGF). CGF is a water soluble nucleotide-peptide
complex found only in chlorella. It is responsible for the rapid rate of growth
of the alga. Experiments with microorganisms and animals have shown that CGF
promotes faster than normal growth without adverse side effects by naturally
catalyzing the DNA to RNA to protein conversion. It stimulates tissue repair
and protects cells against some toxic by-products of rapid growth. The process
used in preparing Seachem chlorella products has been specially designed to
maximize the CGF content retained in the final product. The effects of CFG are
only observed in algae whose cell walls have been perforated, as the wall is
composed of material that cannot be readily digested. The Seachem protocol
breaks open the cell wall, allowing the cell contents to be fully available for
digestion.
