Why linPET?
linPET is a unique blend of flax and pulses manufactured with our advanced patented technology process. The resulting product provides outstanding nutrition and health benefits to pets, significantly improving overall pet performance.
How Dry Extrusion Works
- Flaxseed cell wall ruptures
- Protein structures change
- Starches from the dried pulses gelatinize
- Homogenization of ingredients (flaxseed and pulses)
Omega-3s Benefits to Pets:
- Boost the immune system in the pet
- Anti-Inflammatory
- Support digestive health
- Soften and shine the pets
It has been proven that Omega-3 fatty acids support pet gut health, foster brain and vision development, improve digestion, and reduce inflammation. Omega-3s are vital for a pet’s overall health, as their body cannot produce these essential fatty acids. Therefore, they need to come from a pet’s diet.
The Benefits of Flaxseed
Flaxseed is a sustainable oilseed, rich in Omega-3s that is frequently incorporated into pet foods. For the oil to be incorporated, the seed must be crushed or ruptured to make its rich polyunsaturated Omega-3 fat source available, which in turn will introduce oxidization concerns. Polyunsaturated fats oxidize extremely fast so once the flaxseeds are ruptured/crushed their useful life is limited. This shelf-life limiting factor is a critical issue for the pet food, and an opportunity for linPET to help support.
