Nutrition
We have simplified the science of dog & cat nutrition. We
believe that there three factors which determine the quality
of a pet food:
1.) The quality of the recipe. Every ingredient
in our food serves an important purpose. 2.) The
quality of the raw materials. We only use 100% all-natural
ingredients, chelated vitamins and fortified minerals. 3.)
The quality of the manufacturing. Great care is taken
to ensure superior taste and digestibilty.
For your pet's health, we use:
- High quality animal proteins from Meat and Fish
- Rice for energy
- Fresh vegetables including Carrots, Lettuce, Celery, Spinach,
Garlic and Parsley
- Oatmeal for its unique nutritional benefits
- Beet pulp to furnish the highest level of nutritional
fiber with the best balance of soluble and insoluble fiber
- Methionine and Lysine (essential amino acids)
- Poultry fat, lecithin, vegetable and fish oil to condition
the coat and for energy
- Natural vitamins, including vitamin E for freshness
- Fortified vitamins
- Natural minerals
- Natural tocopherols (Vitamin E) for freshness
Perhaps equally important is the list of things you won't
find in Pet Chef Express food:
- Artificial colors or flavors
- Chemical preservatives such as ethoxyquin, BHA or BHT
excess
- Crude Fiber such as peanut hulls, rice bran, soy hulls
or wheat bran which can damage the digestive tract
- Undigestible fillers
Are you concerned about what your pet is eating?
If so, study the labels on the foods that you are currently
feeding your pet. See for yourself the difference between
our pet food and the national leading brands (these can be
found on the web or you may contact us for information).
On food labels, ingredients are listed in order of their
volume percentages. For example if Soybean is the first ingredient
listed on the label, then Soybean is the major ingredient
in your pet's food. Listed below are some ingredients we would
like to bring to your attention.
Animal by-products
These are parts of the animal not fit for human consumption
and can include intestines, chicken heads, duckbills, chicken
and turkey feet, feathers and bone. Ingredients listed as
Chicken, Beef and Poultry by-products are not required to
include actual meat.
Ethoxyquin, BHA and BHT
Chemical additives used as preservatives. Ethoxyquin is regulated
as a pesticide and cannot be added to human food.
Fillers
These are ingredients such as feathers, soy, cotton hulls,
corn cobs and peanut hulls. Food company's claim these ingredients
to be all-natural, and technically they are. The down fall
is that your pet gets NO nutritional value from these fillers,
and it creates more work for the POOPER-SCOOPER.
We are proud to say that we only use all-natural
ingredients. We are equally proud to say that we don't use
animal by-products, artificial preservatives or fillers. Our
products also contain supplements (like glucosamine) and we
deliver it to your door for FREE!
This is why we believe we have the best pet food
available today.
