RAWgust,
is a month-long celebration through spreading awareness of the merits of
feeding our pets raw food. To start the month off, let's outline the benefits
of feeding raw.
Simplicity:
Raw
food is more digestible, containing more nutrition than cooked food or kibble.
The moist contents allow for easier digestion for the body to process.
Fresh
Ingredients: No preservatives or chemicals mean you get all the vital and
direct essential vitamins and minerals directly from the protein, fruits and
vegetable source.
Non-Sterilized:
Sterilizing
food, means to clean it of bacteria. Good bacteria helps break down the food in
our bodies to be digested properly. Non-sterilized food contains more good
bacteria than kibble or commercial foods.
Teeth
Care: Raw food contains a moisture content, allowing food to slide off
the teeth easier. This leads to less plaque build-up, better breathe and lower
risk of dental disease.
Healthier
Skin: Higher moisture content also supports the skin/coat, allowing for
a cleaning, shinier and smoother feel; while also hydrating the joints and
muscles.
