Inside the soupy goodness that works dog health magic.
Fact: Bone Broth is one of the purest and richest sources of all-in-one nutrition you can give your dog. It’s naturally made, retains the complex states of its nutrients better than most other forms, and tastes absolutely delicious (especially to your fido).
You may already be familiar, given that the centuries old recipe has recently made a surgence on the human health scene. But how will it actually benefit your dog?
What’s Bone Broth made of?
Bone Broth is a mineral-rich stock that’s made by boiling animal bone (we use beef bones), apple cider vinegar, and water. The result is a rich broth that’s jam packed with calcium, collagen, and essential amino acids.
At Maev, we make our Bone Broth in jars of frozen cubes — the perfect meal topper, dessert, or midday pick-me-up for your dog.
What’s the benefit of Bone Broth to my dog?
We literally call Bone Broth the “superhero of superfoods” because there’s seemingly no part of the body that doesn’t benefit from its soupy goodness. In dogs, Bone Broth builds immunity, detoxes the liver, supports joint health, and strengthens your dog’s skin, coat, and gut.
What are the macronutrients that fuel these benefits?
Our Bone Broth.
Bone Broth is naturally rich in collagen, the most abundant protein in any mammal’s body. In dogs and humans alike, collagen is credited for improving joint mobility, restoring liver health, reducing inflammation throughout the body, and keeping their skin bouncy and youthful.
The soupy goodness is also one of the richest sources of glycine — an amino acid that’s clinically proven to repair intestinal and gut health — on the planet. For that reason, Bone Broth is widely known as a natural remedy for leaky gut and inflammatory bowel diseases that make digestion painful for dogs.
And of course, since our bones are in part made and reinforced of calcium, the broth that’s extracted is full of it as well. Especially during the colder months when your dog’s joints tend to be stiffer and more susceptible to inflammation, you can’t go wrong with a calcium boost via Bone Broth.
