Sweet Potato Superfood
Sweet potato for dogs and cats can be considered a superfood, meaning that it naturally offers multiple benefits from a single source!
For starters, sweet potato is high in soluble and insoluble fiber. Soluble fiber may lower cholesterol and balance glucose levels, while insoluble fibers help keep pets regular and their guts healthy.
Sweet potatoes also offer a diverse range of phytonutrients (nutrients that naturally occur in plants). For example, its iconic orange-yellow color comes from beta-carotenes, which are pigments that may help promote healthy eyes, skin, and joints.
Sweet potatoes are also rich in vitamins A and C, and the minerals manganese and copper, which are essential nutrients for pets.
Made from Rescued Sweet Potatoes
As part of our commitment to reducing our environmental impact, we’ve partnered with suppliers to turn rescued sweet potatoes into delicious and nutritious pet chews.
What are rescued sweet potatoes? Slightly misshapen or discolored produce often gets left to rot because people don’t tend to purchase them despite the fact that they are every bit as nutritious as their perfect-looking counterparts! By embracing these natural variations, we provide pets with tasty snacks while doing our part to reduce the carbon footprint and water waste.
