The Only Dog Food with Antioxidants From Real Food

Carna4 recipes all contain whole produce including peas, sweet potatoes and carrots, which are excellent sources of antioxidants. Sprouting a seed can increase its antioxidants by up to 9,600% after germination, giving our foods an even more significant boost in natural antioxidants, including Vitamin C and E.

This is important because antioxidant levels play a key role in safeguarding your pet from free radicals, which are natural products of metabolism (energy production in the body) as well as environmental impurities inhaled and ingested during daily activities. Free radicals age and weaken the body,  hastening damage and disease, leading to serious conditions like arthritis and contributing to cancer cell growth. Antioxidants protect your pet by attacking and neutralizing these free radicals.

Highly processed foods contain higher amounts of free radicals because they form during the intense extrusion heating process. The synthetic antioxidants typically added to these foods after manufacturing are quickly used up and don’t get a chance to work in your pet’s body.

One of the beauties of Carna4 is that the naturally-occurring antioxidants so abundant in our blend of sprouted seeds keep our food pure and fresh without man-made preservatives by protecting Carna4’s polyunsaturated fats from oxidation.  Furthermore, since Carna4 is only minimally processed, there are many fewer free radicals in the food to begin with, leaving more antioxidants to preserve the freshness for you. Some of our customers think our bags are vacuum-packed because they can look like wrinkled bricks on the shelves, with all the air sucked out…but they’re not. What our customers are seeing is the effect of the LIVE PROBIOTICS eating up all the oxygen in the bag after sealing!
