These Freeze
Dried Raw Beef Mini Patties are a perfect addition to anyone feeding their pet
a RAW (B.A.R.F.) diet. The Mini Patties are a high protein, low carb select
beef formula created to preserve and deliver nature's essential nutrients. It
is also a perfect way to supplement your dogs existing diet.
Since I have
Great Danes & Golden Retrievers, I take the patties and slice them into
long strips, making a very tasty and much anticipated treat!
By freeze drying,
the digestive enzymes and amino acids are preserved, creating an ideal nutritional
profile in a cupboard safe product.

Here to learn more about the benefits of Freeze Drying and why
it is superior to dehydration.
The value of
a raw food diet lies in its content of enzymes undamaged by the heat of cooking.
Enzymes are responsible for every metabolic reaction that takes place in the
body, whether it be the blinking of your eye or the functioning of your liver.
Thus, when you're out of enzymes, you're out of vitality-in fact you're out
of life.
A raw meat
diet contains natural digestive enzymes and the most complete amino acid profile
(the protein building blocks) totally undamaged in this natural state. Many
of the important amino acids and all digestive enzymes are destroyed by temperatures
in excess of 120 degrees F.
Freeze-drying,
though considerably higher in cost, is the only way to preserve meat without
chemicals, irradiation, or heat damage to nutrition.
Freeze-drying
is a process that removes the moisture from the meat in a vacuum chamber, while
still frozen. By bringing the temperature to the triple point 32 degrees F (where
moisture can exist as an ice crystal, water or gas), the moisture is evacuated
from an ice crystal to a gas without entering the liquid stage. The minimum
amount of added heat to accomplish this is insufficient to destroy the amino
acids or digestive enzymes.
Most processed
and canned pet foods are cooked at temperatures in excess of 212 degrees F.
Animals consuming these highly processed foods often become nutritionally compromised
and manifest dry and itchy skin, dull coats, weight problems, lethargy, and
many more not so obvious symptoms.
Enzymes are
essential biological catalysts that enhance the quality and quantity of nutrient
assimilation. This allows your favorite pet to conserve its own enzyme energy
for other important life enriching health benefits such as longevity.
