At Raw Performance, we prioritize your pet’s health by providing optimal nutrition through our raw food blends. Protein, a cornerstone of your pet’s diet, plays a vital role in their overall well-being. In this blog, we’ll dive into why protein is crucial, how it supports your pet’s health, and what sets our protein sources apart.
Protein is an essential macronutrient that supports numerous functions in your pet’s body:
Muscle Development and Maintenance: Protein provides amino acids that are necessary for building and repairing tissues, supporting your pet’s active lifestyle.
Energy Source: While fats are the primary energy source in raw diets, proteins offer a secondary energy supply, especially beneficial for highly active pets.
Enzyme and Hormone Production: Proteins serve as the building blocks for many enzymes and hormones, facilitating vital bodily functions.
Immune Support: Proteins help generate antibodies and bolster the immune system, keeping your pet healthy and resilient.
Our raw food blends are crafted with high-quality proteins sourced from human-grade, ethically raised ingredients. They cater to your pet’s unique needs and preferences while ensuring optimal health benefits.
Pure Blends: Single-source proteins such as Pure Beef, Pure Turkey, and Pure Salmon are ideal for pets with allergies or food sensitivities.
Mixed Blends: Blends like Beef & Salmon or Duck & Lamb offer a balanced variety of nutrients and amino acids, suitable for pets without specific dietary restrictions.
The protein content in our blends is carefully calculated to reflect:
The Weight of Raw Ingredients: Ensuring accurate representation of the protein levels.
Moisture and Fat Levels: Maintaining the balance between protein and other macronutrients.
No Fillers or Additives: Our blends are free from unnecessary fillers, so every bite is packed with real, high-quality nutrition.
This chart offers a visual guide to the protein content across our blends, helping you choose the best option for your pet’s specific needs.
Each blend is designed to offer a specific protein-to-fat ratio to suit different energy needs:
Active Pets: Blends like Pure Turkey and Beef are excellent for supporting muscle repair and sustained energy.
Sensitive Pets: Single-source protein blends, such as Pure Salmon or Pure Duck, help minimize allergens and digestive issues.
Balanced Nutrition: Multi-protein blends provide a diverse range of amino acids, ensuring complete nutrition for most pets.
Not all proteins are created equal. At Raw Performance, we focus on:
Ethical Sourcing: We partner with Canadian suppliers who meet stringent government standards.
Wild-Caught and Free-Range Options: Our proteins, such as salmon and duck, are responsibly sourced for superior quality.
Human-Grade Standards: Providing your pet with safe and nutritious meals.
