Raw dog food like the BARF Diet is a high-quality protein that contains fresh, whole protein sources like muscle meat, organs, bones, fruits and vegetables. Our diets are rich in amino acids, which are important for overall body function, including the maintenance of heart muscle. There are many factors that can affect overall heart health and longevity.
In addition, omega-3 fatty acids, like those that are found in our complete and balanced diets with ingredients like fish, salmon, or flaxseed. These wholesome ingredients are high in omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3s are essential for reducing inflammation, supporting cardiovascular health, and maintaining a healthy heart by improving blood flow and reducing the risk of arrhythmias.
By encouraging a higher ratio of HDL (good cholesterol) to LDL (bad cholesterol), a well-balanced raw diet can aid in cholesterol regulation. Elevated LDL cholesterol can lead to plaque accumulation in the arteries, this is crucial for heart health.
One of the main causes of heart disease is chronic inflammation. Fresh, human-grade nutrients found in the BARF Diet can promote overall heart function by reducing inflammation in dogs' bodies.
Antioxidants like vitamin C and E, which promote blood vessel health and enhance circulation, are abundant in many raw food items, including fresh fruits and vegetables. A healthy heart and less strain on the cardiovascular system depends on proper blood flow.
High amounts of nutrients like taurine and carnitine, which are critical for heart muscle function and general cardiac health, are frequently found in raw dog food. These nutrients can help dogs, particularly some breeds, avoid diseases like dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).
Raw food to help your pet
Raw food diets can help dogs maintain a healthy weight since they usually focus on full, unprocessed foods with less grains and additives. A balanced raw diet from BARF World may help lower the risk of heart strain caused by excess weight, as obesity is a major risk factor for heart disease. Our veterinarian and nutritionists have taken the guess work out for you and you can confidently feed a diet that is properly balanced with the necessary nutrients that your pet needs.
In honor of Heart Health Month, we would like to showcase our newest treats available for you today! Our Lamb and Turkey Heart Treats. Pet parents that are looking to provide their pets with a healthy snack, heart treats for dogs are a fantastic choice!
Hearts provide a lot of high-quality protein, which is necessary for general health, muscle growth, and repair.
Vitamins and minerals like iron, phosphorus, zinc, and B vitamins (particularly B12) are abundant in animal hearts. These nutrients promote healthy skin and coat, immunological response, and energy production.
One amino acid that is especially good for heart health is taurine. Heart treats can help supplement taurine, an essential ingredient that some dogs, especially some breeds, may not manufacture enough of on their own.
By scraping away plaque and tartar, chewing on tougher treats like heart can help maintain oral health. However, it's crucial to watch them while they chew to make sure they don't swallow too big a piece. For dogs, heart treats are frequently more engaging than ordinary kibble or biscuits. They give the dog a fun exercise that fulfills their innate chewing needs while also stimulating their minds and bodies. Does your canine enjoy heart-shaped treats? They make some dogs go crazy!
While there are potential benefits to feeding a raw diet, it's important to remember that every dog is different. Consulting a veterinarian before switching to a raw food diet is always a good idea, as they can guide you on portioning, ingredient balance, and the specific needs of your dog's breed and health condition.
