Continuation of Product Description:

ORIJEN Senior dog food takes the changed metabolism of older dogs into special consideration for a long and healthy canine life. ORIJEN dog food is different from other pet foods:

• Higher protein content from fresh meat
• Contains no cereals
• Few carbohydrates
• Rich in fruits and vegetables
• Herbs and probiotic bacteria to promote health

1. High-Protein from Fresh Meats: Dogs are naturally not vegetarians; their short digestive tract is designed to consume and metabolize a meat-based, protein-rich diet low in carbohydrates. Dogs are very effective at utilizing protein as a source of energy. Only a meat-based food ensures the optimal health and vitality of your dog. ORIJEN dog food contains at least 70% meat, featuring regional Canadian ingredients that arrive at the factory fresh - never frozen or dried.
   • Fresh grain-fed Canadian chicken
   • Fresh wild-caught Whitefish (Coregonus clupeaformis) from Canadian lakes
   • Fresh whole eggs from Canadian farms

2. No Cereals, Low Content of Carbohydrates: Grain is used as a cheap source of caloric energy and protein in dog foods, although dogs are simply not evolved to eat processed cereal grains. Biologically, dogs only require a very small amount of carbohydrates. Numerous veterinarians consider grains in food as the source of a host of health problems including obesity, diabetes, and digestive problems.

3. Healthy Fruits & Vegetables from Canada:
   • Apples: provide plant fibers for healthy digestion and are rich in phyto-nutrients with antioxidant, cell-protecting characteristics.
   • Cranberries: can prevent urinary passage problems and contain anthocyanins that improve sight, reduce chance for infections, and work to protect blood vessels.
   • Spinach: contains vitamins A and C, as well as Lutein and Flavonoids which help protect cells and prevent cancer.
   • Steamed Potatoes: are highly nutritional and contain B-vitamins and vitamin C as well as minerals.
   • Tomatoes: contain healthy vitamins and strong antioxidants such as beta-carotene and lycopene
   • Carrots: contain beta-carotene which is converted to vitamin A in the body
   • Kelp: contains 12 vitamins, 21 amino acids, and over 60 minerals and trace elements

4. Health-Promoting Botanicals: Dogs have the instinctive ability to choose to eat grasses and plants that enhance their vitality and well-being. The vitamin and mineral-rich botanicals featured in Orijen dog food are carefully-selected by holistic veterinarians.
   • Marshmallow Root, Chicory and Psyllium: supply soluble fiber that soothes and nourishes the digestive tract, optimize nutrient absorption, and reduce insulin levels, especially in dogs. Marshmallow Root is also an anti-inflammatory
   • Burdock and Milk Thistle: defend and strengthen the liver. Burdock also provides an excellent source of fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS), acting as a prebiotic to support healthy intestinal flora
   • Fennel Seed and Chamomile Flowers: soothe and tone the digestive tract. Fennel has additional influence as an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant, and chamomile contains essential oils that have strong cutaneous and anti-itch effects
   • Marigold Flowers: are a rich source of lutein and provide a significant antioxidant effect. Marigold also has a hypoglycemic effect by reducing blood sugar variances, helping to slow gastric emptying time and enhance digestion

5. Probiotics: favorably alter the intestinal microflora balance, inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria, promote good digestion, boost immune function, and increase resistance to infection.

6. Essential Fatty Acids: from chicken fat, salmon oil and sunflower oil ensure healthy skin and glossy fur

7. Proteinates: minerals and trace elements in natural, organically bound form for better biological availability

8. Glucosamine and Chondroitin: aid in protection of the cartilage thus ensuring healthy joints

9. L-Carnitin: for an optimal metabolism.

ORIJEN Senior dog food is ideal for older dogs of all breeds and sizes. It does not contain any proteins from vegetable sources or animal by-products. ORIJEN: nourish as nature intended.
