ingredients

  • Salmon,
    Salmon

    Our salmon is an excellent source of protein, minerals, vitamins and omega fatty acids. Proteins are the building blocks of organ tissues and cells. Amino acids contained in protein are responsible for many processes in the body, including maintenance of smooth workflow and digestion. Amino acids also help to regulate hormones, build muscles, fix tissue in tendons, ligaments, cartilages, and maintain healthy skin, coat, and nails.

  • Dehydrated Deboned Chicken,
    Dehydrated Deboned Chicken

    Our dehydrated deboned chicken starts with fresh, superior-quality chicken, which is then gently cooked at a low temperature to remove most moisture. As such, it is a concentrated (3 times the amount of protein on a dry matter basis), highly digestible source of protein and essential amino acids that also provides essential fatty acids, vitamins and minerals for muscle development, organ function, and energy. Using deboned chicken allows us to achieve the optimum levels of calcium and phosphorous in our recipes.

They are required for normal growth and functioning of the cells, muscles, nerves, and organs. Deficiencies of EFAs have been linked to a variety of health problems, including heart disease, cancer and diabetes. Flaxseed also contains lignans – chemical compounds found in some plants.
