Why are raw pet foods healthier?
One simple reason, only raw food contains ALL the nutrients food has to offer. Fruits and vegetables are not included as fillers, they are natural sources of enzymes, vitamins, minerals and much more. They help to make our formulas complete and balanced, naturally. Any cooking at all destroys a huge number of known and unknown micronutrients. These micronutrients, such as enzymes, phytochemicals, complete families of antioxidants and flavonoids, vitamins and minerals simply cannot be replaced (not with additives and not with supplements). Natural, Whole, Raw… The Way Nature Intended! This is vitally important because, while studies have proven that fruit and vegetable-rich diets can lower cancer incidents and other diet related aliments they can not pinpoint the particular nutrients that provide these benefits. As we said above, to get all the nutrition food has to offer, it must be raw!
