Ingredients Properties and Benefits
GOAT MILK Goat milk contains 13 per cent less lactose than cow milk. The milk-fat particles are small, making goat milk easier to digest than cow milk. Goat milk does not contain the protein b-lactoglobulin, that is responsible for many dairy allergies, and it is higher in vitamin A, calcium, potassium, and copper, than cow based products. Goat milk is often used for digestive problems.
CAROB Carob is rich in natural sugars and contains all the principle minerals and vitamins such as calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium, silicon, magnesium, vitamins B1 and B2, niacin, some vitamin A, plus protein.

Cinnamon also helps to treat nausea and flatulence. Even the oil found in cinnamon has antifungal and antibacterial properties.

TOMATO Tomatoes have the ability to lower the risk of some kinds of cancer. The secret to the tomato's success is lycopene, which is the chemical that gives tomatoes their bright red colour. Tomatoes that have been processed by cooking, actually contain more lycopene, because cooking breaks down the cellular walls of the tomato, allowing carotenoids to be more concentrated and to make tomatoes even more beneficial, add a little fat, like cold pressed olive oil. Believe it or not, this simple trick allows the lycopene to be even better absorbed into the body. Along with lycopene, tomatoes are also an excellent source of vitamins A and C.

HEMP The word is out. Hemp is not what you think it is!!! Hemp is one of the most powerfully nutritious foods you can feed to your dogs. Although Hemp is classified as Cannabis, it is a really distant cousin to Marijuana. There is a special definition for Hemp in the market place. As a food source, hemp contains less than .03% tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), which is recognized as the primary psychoactive ingredient in marijuana.
Hemp is a powerhouse of essential fatty acids. It contains Omega 3 in the form of Alpha Linolenic Acid, Omega 6 in the form of Linolenic Acid and Gamma Linoleic Acid, and Omega 9 in the form of Oleic Acid. In fact, Hemp's fatty acid profile is closer to fish oil than any other vegetable oil, including flax seed oil, and Hemp provides a healthy and environmentally friendly alternative to fish oil.
Hemp is also a valuable source of gluten free protein, is high in Vitamin C, Vitamin E, and chlorophyll, and it also has an excellent amino acid profile. Hemp can ease joint pain and inflammation, it support caridovascular health, can help improve the condition of your dog's skin and coat, and it also act as a digestive aid.
