image for: Why Feed Cats and Dogs Freeze Dried Beef Spleen For Pets

Did you know feeding your aging cat or dog freeze dried beef spleen treats for pets may improve their health?

In fact, beef spleen treats aid:

  • Diarrhea
  • Weight loss
  • Muscle atrophy
  • Loss of strength
  • Sensitive Stomach

Additionally, beef spleen treats are an excellent source of certain vitamins and minerals.

Why Does Your Cat Or Dog Need Beef Spleen Treats?

Beef Spleen Treats are an excellent source of:

  • Pantothenic Acid (Vitamin B5) – converts food into glucose, used to produce energy
  • Potassium – prevents muscle loss
  • Riboflavin – benefits energy production
  • Niacin – lowers high cholesterol
  • Vitamin B12 – regulates the nervous system, reduces depression and stress
  • Iron – boosts red blood cells and fights anemia
  • Zinc – benefits the skin and prevents dandruff
  • Vitamin C – boosts the immune system

Beef Spleen In Eastern Medicine

In TCVM, the Five-Element Theory explains the relationship between the five naturally occurring elements in the environment.

Furthermore, according to the Five-Element Theory, the spleen is representative of earth.

The attributes of Earth are qualities of patience and stability.

Giving your pets spleen treats strengthens the Earth attributes.

Additionally, beef spleen treats are an amazing natural solution for pets suffering from diarrhea, weight loss, and muscle atrophy.

In Eastern veterinary medicine, the spleen/stomach oversees the body’s food intake, digestion, and assimilation of food into energy.

The spleen also serves to distribute energy throughout the body so it can be utilized effectively and efficiently.

About Freeze Dried Beef Spleen Treats

What do all these benefits mean for you?

Your ailing pet will begin to feel like his old self again!

How Are Beef Spleen Treats Freeze Dried?

Freeze drying starts with flash-freezing beef spleen in a vacuum chamber at -50 to -60 degrees Fahrenheit.

About 98% of moisture is removed through the process of applying low-level heat.

Why Freeze Dry Beef For Pets?

Flash-frozen foods stay fresh without preservatives, additives or chemicals.

Freeze dried meat retains its vitamin, mineral and fat content.

The process of freeze drying does less harm to the meat than heat-based preservation methods.

Conventional cooking reduces amino acids, denatures peptides, alters flavors and aromas, and decomposes vitamins and fatty acids.

Freeze dried meat retains many of the properties of raw meat.

The freeze drying process decreases oxidation, so freeze dried meat is shelf-stable for a longer period of time than other preserved products.

How Long Do Freeze Dried Treats Stay Fresh?

PET | TAO Freeze Dried Beef Spleen Treats list 18 months on the bags, as long as the unopened bag is kept at low humidity.

But, they may last much longer if kept under the right conditions.

Like beef jerky, as long as moisture can’t get to them, they will last a long time (years).

Can You Reconstitute Freeze Dried Treats In Water?

Freeze drying usually yields 25% of the original wet weight of the meat.

If you rehydrate the treats, they should quadruple in weight.

Thus 3 oz. should turn into 12 oz. when rehydrated.

Looking for an all natural freeze dried beef spleen treat for your pet?

PET | TAO Freeze Dried Beef Spleen Treats contain one ingredient only – beef spleen – and are additive-free and hypoallergenic by nature.

Each bag contains 3 ounces of flavorful, nutritional goodness for cats and dogs!
