Premium Dog Food Supplements: Natural Dog Treats with Superfoods for Optimal Health

In recent years, pet owners have become increasingly conscious of the ingredients in their pets' food and treats. As a veterinarian and expert in animal nutrition, I've seen a growing demand for sustainable, healthy, and natural options. This shift has led to the rise of insect-based dog treats, particularly those using "Hermetia Illucens" or commonly known as Black Soldier Fly Larvae (BSFL) protein. Note: We source our BSFL Protein Meal from the best sustainable farms from Veolia who has been EU Certified. In our blog page you can find more information about the truths and myths about animal protein "meat" in dog food and treats. I invite you to read this article first and take your own conclusions.

These mono-protein insect-based treats are not only hypoallergenic but also packed with essential nutrients, super digestible, making them an excellent choice for health-conscious pet owners. And recent studies showed that this ingredient reduces bad mouth breath odor and are anti-microbial !!

Why Insect-Based Protein is a Game Changer for Dog Treats

Traditional sources of protein, such as chicken or beef, are often associated with allergies and environmental concerns. In contrast, insect-based proteins, especially BSFL, offer a sustainable and hypoallergenic alternative. In my practice, I have seen how dogs with food sensitivities thrive on these novel protein sources. Insect protein is highly digestible, rich in amino acids, and has a lower environmental footprint, requiring fewer resources to produce compared to conventional livestock. Also I want to let you know that normally, usually, most often... animal protein comes from by-products, with all health guarantees of course. But are processed to remove the water content and fat content, then grinded and dried to make a protein meal powder from them to be included with other ingredients to manufacture the dog food dried kibbles, treats and other pet food products. What I mean is that even the protein from your dog pet food or treats are coming from animal protein, that is processed into a protein meal powder. The same as the protein meal powder we use, but ours is much more digestible, hypoallergenic, nutricional and with the bonus of sustainability.

Health Benefits of BSFL Protein for Dogs

BSFL protein is not just a sustainable choice; it is also a powerhouse of nutrition. These larvae are rich in essential amino acids, Omega 3-6-9 healthy fats, and valuable minerals that are vital for a dog's health. As an expert in alternative proteins, I've observed that dogs consuming BSFL-based treats exhibit improved coat health, increased energy levels, and better overall well-being and boost their immune system. The high protein content supports muscle maintenance and growth, while the Omega 3-6-9 natural fats contribute to a healthy coat and skin.

Natural and Functional Ingredients in Dog Treats

Beyond protein, the best dog treats incorporate a variety of natural and functional ingredients. Ingredients like sweet potato, blueberries, and other superfoods such as chia seeds, quinoa, Kale, ginger, provide many additional health benefits. Sweet potatoes and the other superfoods ingredients offer many vitamins and fiber, supporting digestive health and dental hygiene. Superfoods are packed with antioxidants, promoting a robust immune system. As a pet industry entrepreneur, I emphasize the importance of these ingredients in creating a balanced and nutritious treat. It is the right combination and synergies between ingredients that gives a exponential improvement in health, cognitive capabilities and prevention of diseases. Because all we want is to extend the life of our dogs.

The Environmental Impact of Insect-Based Dog Treats

One of the most compelling reasons to choose insect-based dog treats is their minimal environmental impact. Producing BSFL protein requires significantly less land, water, and feed compared to traditional livestock farming. Additionally, insects can be raised on organic waste (high quality waste as supermarkets fresh but not physically approved to sell for our spoiled consumers societies), contributing to a circular economy. In my work with sustainable pet products and studying alternative proteins, I've seen firsthand how this approach not only benefits the environment but also aligns with the values of eco-conscious pet owners. Is it not a nice Bonus ?

Why Vet Recommended Treats Matter

As a veterinarian, I cannot overstate the importance of choosing vet recommended treats. We formulate the dog treats, we follow the most strict quality control practices as GMP, HACCP and we are not depending on the big companies pushing for sales and margins for them...we care about pet parents and their dogs. These products are formulated with the health and safety of pets in mind. Insect-based treats that have been vetted by professionals ensure that they meet high standards for quality and nutritional value. When I recommend a treat, it's because I trust that it will support the health of the pets under my care.

Affordable Premium Dog Treats: Quality Meets Value

Premium ingredients often come with a premium price tag, but this doesn't have to be the case with insect-based treats. Even high quality insect-based protein meal is expensive: 3 times more expensive than chicken, beef, lamb ... We choose committed suppliers and we are good in negotiating but also in formulating. By using sustainable and efficient production methods, these treats can be both high-quality and affordable. This makes it easier for pet owners to provide their dogs with the best nutrition without breaking the bank. In my entrepreneurial endeavors, I've focused on making top-tier, healthy dog treats accessible to a all pet parents. We love to see that Go-To Bites® is a smart choice to add a nutritional healthy treats routine that dogs love and extends their life.
