The range of cold pressed dog food has increased and I am still the cheapest in the country for SALUBRIOUS, sample bags are now here and I can put them free into orders or send out for the £3 postage. read below about the benefits or Cold Pressed over Kibble , AND you feed 25% LESS
og food that's made by a cold pressed extrusion method thats 36% meat and crammed full of herbs and nothing artificial and contains ZERO cancer causing Acrylamide!!
YOU FEED 25% LESS OF THIS BECAUSE THE DOGS BODY UTILISES FAR MORE BECAUSE OF THE BELOW
THE COOKING PROCESS
Standard extruded kibble is cooked at very high temperatures. The food is then baked (around 250+ degrees Celsius) to remove the moisture from steam cooking, resulting in losing many of the ingredients and to get these important ingredients back the kibble then gets sprayed with flavourings, additives and artificial colours.
Have you ever noticed after reaching inside a bag of extruded kibbled dog food you get a residue left on your hand? This is the result of having to spray back the important ingredients that they have lost with high temperature cooking.
Cold pressed dog food is made by gently cooking the ingredients used at lower temperatures (45 degrees Celsius), ensuring that no natural ingredients lose their nutritional value.
THE BENEFITS
THE BENEFITS OF FEEDING COLD PRESSED OVER NORMAL EXTRUDED DOG FOOD
DOGS DEPEND ON US!
WHAT COULD HONESTLY BE MORE IMPORTANT THAN NUTRITIONAL HEALTH?
1. Cold pressed pellets retains all the natural nutrients, vitamins and minerals present in the ingredients used after processing into pellets
2. Cold pressed pellets retains all the natural smells and flavours of the ingredients used, so no need for artificial smells, flavours and colours.
3. Low temperature cooking does not lead to the denature of proteins, Rendering the essential amino acids as undigestible. Amino acids are essential in the diet for maintaining the immune system, repairing body cells and producing hormones.
4. Low temperature cooking of the starch in the ingredients will not produce a chemical called Acrylamide, which converts to a compound called glycidamide, which causes mutations and damage to D.N.A, resulting in cancers when too much is eaten over a long period of time.
5. Low temperature cooking of proteins does not produce a chemical called cyclic-carbo amines, which is carcinogenic. Cyclic-carbo amines and acrylamide are produced when temperatures exceed 100◦C. Hot extruded kibbles are produced in excess of 130°C inside the extruder and up to 220°C inside the dryer to remove the excess water from the injected super heated steam, used to expand kibbles. This baking causes the maillard reaction which browns the kibbles as a result of the starch (sugars) and proteins being exposed to excessive heat. The browning is charring (imagine burnt toast), charred and carcinogenic.
6. Cold pressed pellets are dry to touch because we have no need to apply sprayed coatings to add back vaporised away, natural vitamins, minerals, smells and flavours. Kibbled dog foods all have a coating of artificial flavourings and smells so the dogs can recognise it as food and that's the residue left on your hands when you handle it.
7. Cold pressed pellets are best fed dry, straight out of the bag, with no need to soak them. If you do soak them in water or gravy you will notice that they do absorb moisture but don't expand, which is kinder on the dogs stomach. Kibbled dog food can more than double in volume by absorbing moisture, which can cause bloating and upset stomachs.
8. Manufacturing process to create cold pressed dog food pellets uses 80% less energy than that required by hot extrusion techniques, meaning a LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT.
9. Only uses ingredients grown and produced in the UK. LOW CARBON FOOTPRINT.
