Beet pulp and taurine status in dogs on low-protein diets

Direct · dog. 18 medium-to-large mixed-breed dogs fed low-protein purified diets.

Tested form: Dietary rice bran in a low-protein purified diet. Dose: Not reported in reviewed abstract (Fibre source incorporated in the diet; inclusion level not reported in the reviewed abstract). Duration: 12 weeks; one beet-pulp-fed dog withdrawn at 10 weeks after excessive weight loss. Comparator: Other experimental low-protein fibre diets containing beet pulp and cellulose.

Measured finding: Taurine concentrations fell in all diet groups. Beet-pulp-fed dogs had lower plasma and whole-blood taurine and lower protein digestibility than the cellulose and rice-bran groups, with greater faecal bile-acid excretion.

Limitations: Small groups and deliberately low-protein purified diets; one withdrawal. Taurine and digestion findings cannot be generalized to all commercial diets or used as a clinical heart-disease outcome.
