5 benefits of feeding freeze-dried food
1. Better preservation of nutrients and the natural structure of food
-
The freeze-drying process works at low temperatures, so vitamins, minerals, enzymes and natural fats are destroyed less than with traditional cooking, drying or extrusion
-
Freeze-dried food contains meat and offal – natural ingredients, similar to the diet of predators
2. Better digestibility, fewer digestive problems
-
Ingredients are less “destroyed”, enzymes and protein structures are more easily absorbed by the body, which can reduce the amount of undigested residues and improve the consistency and volume of stools.
-
Users of freeze-dried food report improved coat appearance and less flatulence.
3. Natural taste, high acceptance – deliciousness
-
The aroma and flavor of the ingredients are better preserved than with cooking or extruding. This makes even picky pets more likely to eat freeze-dried food.
-
For animals with reduced appetite, food allergies, or after illness, such freeze-dried food will be a better choice as a topper or as the main food.
4. Practicality – it does not stain, is handy, has a long durability
-
Moisture-free, meaning there is less risk of mold, rapid spoilage, or bacterial growth compared to wet food.
-
Can be administered directly or after soaking – flexibility, depending on the animal's preferences.
-
Light and easy to transport – perfect for travel, training and walking
Long shelf life – if the packaging is sealed and stored according to instructions
5. Naturalness, fewer additives and lower risk of allergic reactions
-
Pets often have allergic reactions to certain food ingredients: artificial colors, preservatives, and grains in highly processed foods. Freeze-dried food does not contain these additives.
-
Short, clear composition
-
Less heat treatment = fewer potentially harmful compounds, such as Maillard reaction products (which are formed when carbohydrates are processed at high temperatures) and no loss of valuable amino acids
