Life - Changing Nutrition: Pro Plan Bright Mind Adult 7+
From less interaction with you, to less interest in daily activities, there are many signs your dog may be aging. But what if your older dog didn’t have to act his age? Our experts have been studying aging and the effect of nutrition since 2003. This research led to the remarkable discovery that nutrition can indeed make a difference. See it for yourself, through the breakthrough nutrition of Purina Pro Plan Bright Mind Adult 7+ formulas.
The Brains Behind Bright Mind

Around age 7, the glucose metabolism in a dog’s brain begins to change – which can affect things like memory, learning or decision making.

For more than a decade we’ve studied aging in pets and asked, “what if nutrition could positively impact a dog’s cognitive health?” And we made a remarkable discovery: it can.

We discovered that enhanced botanical oils can be used as an additional energy source for a senior dog’s brain, helping him think more like he did when he was younger.
