    FLAX SEEDS

    FLAX SEEDS

    Did you know that we include flax seeds into every single biscuit we bake? There are many benefits to adding flax seeds into our dog's diets.

    WHY ARE FLAX SEEDS GOOD FOR OUR DOGS?

    OMEGA-3 FATTY ACIDS
    Flax seeds are a good source of omega-3 fatty acids, which can help improve skin and coat health and reduce inflammation. Omega-3 fatty acids are essential nutrients that have a number of potential health benefits for dogs. Some of the potential benefits of omega-3 fatty acids for dogs include:

    Improved skin and coat health: Omega-3 fatty acids can help to improve the condition of a dog's skin and coat by providing essential fatty acids that can help to keep the skin moisturized and the coat shiny and healthy.

    Reduced inflammation: Omega-3 fatty acids can help to reduce inflammation in the body, which may be helpful for dogs with conditions such as arthritis or allergies.

    Improved cognitive function: Some studies have suggested that omega-3 fatty acids may help to improve cognitive function in dogs, particularly in senior dogs.

    Cardiovascular health: Omega-3 fatty acids may also help to support cardiovascular health in dogs by helping to lower cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of heart disease.


    FIBER
    Flax seeds are high in fiber, which can aid in digestion and prevent constipation

    Fiber is an important part of a dog's diet, as it helps to maintain healthy digestion and prevent constipation. There are two types of fiber: soluble and insoluble. Soluble fiber dissolves in water and can help to slow down the digestion process, which can lead to a feeling of fullness and may help with weight management. Insoluble fiber does not dissolve in water and helps to add bulk to the stool, which can help to prevent constipation.

    Some sources of fiber for dogs include:

    • Whole grains, such as oats and brown rice
    • Vegetables, such as broccoli, sweet potatoes, and pumpkin
    • Legumes, such as beans and lentils
    • Fruits, such as apples and berries
    • Flax seeds and chia seeds

    It is important to note that while fiber is an important part of a dog's diet, it should be given in moderation. Too much fiber can interfere with the absorption of nutrients and cause digestive issues

    JOINT HEALTHY
    The omega-3 fatty acids in flax seeds may also help with joint inflammation and mobility.

    Omega-3 fatty acids can help to reduce inflammation in the body, which may be helpful for dogs with joint issues such as arthritis. Inflammation can cause swelling and pain in the joints, and the anti-inflammatory properties of omega-3 fatty acids may help to reduce these symptoms.

    In addition, some studies have shown that omega-3 fatty acids may help to improve joint mobility in dogs, possibly by reducing inflammation and increasing lubrication in the joints.

    WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
    Flax seeds are high in fiber, which can help with weight management in dogs by helping them feel full and satisfied after meals. The fiber in flax seeds can also slow down the digestion process, which may help to prevent overfeeding.
