The Science Behind the Foodbowl
Our Beef Bowl offers a range of health benefits due to its nutrient-rich composition.
The Beef Mince, Beef Heart, and Beef Liver are excellent sources of high-quality protein, essential amino acids, and vital nutrients like taurine, which are crucial for maintaining muscle mass and supporting heart function. Beef heart is particularly rich in B vitamins and iron, which are important for energy metabolism and oxygen transport.
Whilst the Walnut Oil, and Flaxseed Oil promote healthy skin and a shiny coat, they also reduce inflammation, which is essential for dog joint health. They also provide Omega-3 fatty acids which support brain function and cognitive health in dogs
Finally, the Calcium Carbonate, Magnesium Supplement, Organic Kelp Powder, Vitamin E, and Vitamin D Supplements ensure adequate intake of essential minerals and vitamins. Calcium and magnesium are crucial for bone strength and development, while vitamin D aids in calcium absorption. Vitamin E acts as an antioxidant, protecting cells from oxidative damage, and kelp powder provides trace minerals that support overall immune function.

The Science Behind the Foodbowl
Looking for a meal that offers premium nutrition for your dog? Then our Goat Bowl is a great pick for you, with several key benefits offered by these range of ingredients.
The Turmeric, Ginger Root, and Omega-3 Rich Oils (such as the Flaxseed and Walnut Oil) offer both anti-inflammatory and antioxidant support. Turmeric and ginger are powerful natural anti-inflammatories that can help manage chronic inflammation, which is beneficial for dogs with conditions like arthritis or allergies. The balanced omega-6 to omega-3 ratio of 1.17:1 further supports anti-inflammatory effects and promotes healthy skin and a shiny coat. Additionally, these ingredients provide antioxidant support, protecting cells from oxidative stress.
Meanwhile, the Goat meat and organ meats are top sources of high-quality protein, essential for maintaining strong muscles. Goat heart is particularly rich in taurine, an amino acid crucial for heart health. In addition, the Pasture Raised Eggs are a complete protein source and provide essential fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals that support cardiovascular health and overall vitality.
Finally, ingredients such as the Butternut Pumpkin, Beetroot and Spinach are rich in dietary fibre, which promotes healthy digestion and regular bowel movements in dogs. Butternut and beetroot help in maintaining a healthy gut and support liver function, ensuring that dogs receive the full nutritional benefits of their diet.

Finally, the addition of Walnut Oil, Flaxseed Oil and Chia Seeds, alongside the other recipe ingredients, provides the ideal ratio of omega fatty acids to make this meal excellent for maintaining skin health and a glossy coat, while also reducing inflammation throughout the body.

The Science Behind the Foodbowl
Fish are friends, but also food! Our Fish Bowl is particularly beneficial for supporting skin and coat health, strengthening bones and muscles, and boosting the immune and digestive systems.
To be precise, the Australian Salmon, Sardines, and Walnut Oil featured in this recipe are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which are crucial for maintaining healthy skin and a shiny coat. The balanced omega-6 to omega-3 ratio of 1.23:1 also helps reduce inflammation, benefiting dogs with allergies, arthritis, or other inflammatory conditions. Omega-3s also support cognitive function and cardiovascular health.
In addition, the inclusion of Calcium Carbonate, along with the phosphorus from the fish and eggs, help to support strong bones and teeth in dogs. Whilst the Pasture Raised Eggs, being a complete protein source, provide essential amino acids necessary for muscle maintenance and repair. The choline supplement meanwhile is important for maintaining healthy joints, particularly in older dogs, and it also supports liver function.
Finally, ingredients such as the Sweet Potato and Carrots are high in dietary fibre, which promotes healthy digestion and regular bowel movements for our dogs. They are also rich in antioxidants, supporting the immune system. Button Mushrooms in particular have immune-boosting properties and provide additional vitamins and minerals. Whilst Turmeric, with its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, further supports immune health and helps in managing inflammation, while black pepper enhances the absorption of curcumin in turmeric.
