Why Cold Pressed? The Science Behind Better Nutrition
Understanding how low-temperature processing preserves the nutrients your dog needs for a healthier, longer life.
When it comes to dog food, how it's made matters just as much as what goes into it. Traditional kibble is extruded at temperatures exceeding 150°C, which destroys many of the nutrients that make real ingredients valuable in the first place.
What Makes Cold Pressing Different?
Cold pressing uses low temperatures – much gentler than standard kibble. This gentle process preserves:
- Natural enzymes that aid digestion
- Heat-sensitive vitamins like vitamin C and B-complex
- Amino acids that support muscle development
- Natural flavours that make dogs actually want to eat
The Digestion Difference
Cold pressed food breaks down more slowly in the stomach, releasing nutrients gradually. This means no energy spikes and crashes, and better nutrient absorption overall.
For dogs with sensitive stomachs – like our May – this gentle processing can make all the difference between digestive distress and a happy, comfortable pup.
