KING BRITISH LAUNCHES NEW
ONLINE VIDEO
King British fish flake food has launched a new online video.
Running for approximately one and a half minutes, it focuses upon
the product’s Immuno Health Booster (IHB), an ingredient said to
be unique to King British.
IHB is called an ‘immunomodulator’ and is a breakthrough
in nutritional science. It’s said to regulate the immune system,
producing immunostimulants as well as suppressing them when
necessary, helping to avoid autoimmune diseases or infections.
This naturally helps fish to reduce stress to optimise their health
and longevity.
IHB is suitable for all coldwater, tropical and marine fish that will
eat prepared dry food. All King British flake foods and some of the
brand’s specialist foods contain IHB including King British Goldfish
Flake, King British Tropical Flake and King British Cichlid Flake, King
British Cichlid Sticks and King British Algae Wafers.
