The reasons for using pumpkin powder in pet food are mainly related to its nutritional value, functional properties and benefits to pet health.

1. Promote digestion and improve intestinal health
Pumpkin powder is rich in dietary fiber (such as pectin), which can promote intestinal peristalsis, help pets excrete toxins and stool, and prevent constipation or diarrhea. Pectin can also protect the gastrointestinal mucosa and reduce the irritation of food to the digestive tract, which is suitable for pets with sensitive stomachs. The soluble fiber in pumpkin can aid in both diarrhea and constipation by absorbing excess water or adding bulk to the stool.In addition, pumpkin powder is easy to digest and absorb, which can help relieve flatulence or abdominal pain caused by indigestion.

2. Assists in weight control
Pumpkin powder is a low-fat, low-calorie but high-fiber food that can increase satiety and reduce overeating in pets, thereby assisting in weight management. For pets prone to obesity, adding an appropriate amount of pumpkin powder can help maintain a healthy body shape.

3. Nutritional supplement and immune enhancement
Pumpkin powder is rich in vitamins (such as vitamin A, C, B group), minerals (such as zinc, cobalt, potassium) and amino acids, which can supplement the daily nutrition needed by pets and enhance immunity. For example, after β-carotene is converted into vitamin A, it helps maintain the healthy vision of pets; cobalt participates in hematopoietic function and has a certain improvement effect on anemia or metabolic problems.

4. Detoxification and Metabolism Support
The pectin in pumpkin powder has adsorption properties, which can bind and excrete heavy metals and toxins in the body, reducing the burden on the liver and kidneys. This property is particularly important for pets living in polluted environments. In addition, the dietary fiber in pumpkin powder can regulate blood sugar levels and has a certain auxiliary effect on diabetic pets.

5. Palatability and safety
Pumpkin itself has a mild and sweet taste. Pumpkin powder, as a natural ingredient, can be added to pet food to improve the palatability of food and attract picky pets to eat. At the same time, pumpkin powder raw materials are easy to obtain, the cost is low, and the processing technology is mature, which is suitable for large-scale production.

Precautions
Although pumpkin powder is beneficial to pets, the dosage should be controlled. Excessive use may cause beta-carotene deposition (yellowing of the skin) or indigestion. In addition, pets allergic to pumpkin should not use it, and diabetic pets should also adjust their intake under the guidance of a veterinarian.

In summary, pumpkin powder has become a common natural additive in pet food due to its comprehensive nutritional value and functionality. The specific formula needs to be adjusted according to the pet's breed, health status and veterinary advice.
