Jerusalem artichoke is very healthy for dogs. Jerusalem artichoke consists largely of insulin and is not digested due to its structure. Therefore, Jerusalem artichoke is suitable for animals that are overweight or suffer from diabetes. Insulin is contained in the Jerusalem artichoke tuber and keeps blood sugar levels stable, regulates metabolism and aids digestion. Natural substances, vitamins (C and B are responsible for the healthy function of cells and regulator of blood sugar levels) and minerals such as iron (they are responsible for the transport of oxygen in the blood) and potassium (serves for the development of muscles and growth) contribute to the health of the dog.
