What is a Raw Diet?
A varied diet is crucial for both humans and pets. A raw food diet provides a wide range of nutrients necessary for pets. Nutrients like proteins and fats are essential for energy needs, while carbohydrates lack essential components and can be synthesised from amino acids.
Pet food companies often promote the idea of balance to sell their products, but a raw food diet offers nutrients in their natural form, including enzymes and antioxidants, which are crucial for health. Cooking food destroys many of these vital enzymes, requiring the body to produce more for digestion. So, what are some more benefits of a raw diet?
Species Appropriate
Raw food, especially a SARF™ diet is the most natural diet your dog can consume. Food that is whole, fresh, and uncooked helps the body fend off ageing, improve cell oxygenation, metabolism, and renewal, helps fight off diseases.
Strengthens Immune System
A SARF™ diet strengthens your pets immune system by reintroducing a good balance of enzymes, essential fatty acids, proteins, natural fats, calcium and other minerals along with pre-digested plant matter resulting in naturally healthy dogs.
Improved Degenerative Disease
People who switch their older dogs to a SARF™ diet often find that whatever degenerative disease their pet has contracted, becomes far less of a problem. This can happen quickly or over a few months.
Healthier Skin and Coat
Usually some of the first changes you will notice when you start feeding a SARF™ diet are skin conditions improve or even disappear. You will also notice a rich coloured, soft and sweet smelling healthy coat with your SARF fed pet!
Reduce Stool Volume and Odour
A raw diet provides your pet with natural nutrients their body can use. Commercial dog food contains ingredients such as grains, corn, soy & man-made nutrients which your dog would not eat naturally and are not good for digestion – the waste product is unnatural, smelly and takes considerably longer to decompose.
Lean Body Mass
By feeding a SARF™ diet, your pet will lose fat and gain that much desired muscle mass. Your dog will look better than ever. This will also increase their activity levels and life-span. You can increase this effect with routine exercise.
Improved Arthritis
After a few months you can expect to see much greater mobility in your pet. This is why so many older pets have a new lease of life when switched to a SARF™ diet.
