Understanding the Freeze-Drying Process in Dog Food: COYA's Freeze-Dried Raw Range
In the quest to provide the best nutrition for our canine companions, many UK pet owners are turning to freeze-dried dog food. COYA’s range of Freeze-Dried Raw food, treats, and toppers offers a convenient and nutritious option for your dog. But what exactly is freeze-drying, and why is it beneficial?
Freeze-drying is a preservation method that removes moisture from food while retaining its nutritional value and flavour. The process involves freezing the food and then slowly reducing the surrounding pressure, allowing the frozen water content to sublimate directly from solid to gas. This method maintains the structure and nutrients of the food, unlike traditional cooking methods that can degrade vital nutrients.
Benefits of Freeze-Drying for Dog Food
-
Nutrient Retention: Freeze-drying preserves up to 97% of the nutrients in the raw ingredients. This means your dog gets all the benefits of a raw diet, including essential vitamins, minerals, and enzymes that support overall health.
-
Enhanced Flavour and Aroma: The freeze-drying process locks in the natural flavours and aromas of the ingredients, making the food more palatable for dogs. This is particularly beneficial for picky eaters who may be hesitant to try new foods.
-
Convenience and Shelf Stability: Unlike fresh or frozen raw diets, freeze-dried foods are lightweight and do not require refrigeration or freezing. They are easy to store and have a long shelf life, making them ideal for busy pet owners.
-
Easy Preparation: Preparing a freeze-dried meal is simple. Just pour into a bowl and serve. This convenience makes it easy to provide your dog with a nutritious raw diet without the hassle of thawing or preparing fresh ingredients.
