Ginger And Parsley Biscuits
Why do dogs love 'em?
We attribute the love of our biscuits to the fact that we use a whole buckwheat flour. On livestockfarms, buckwheat "middlings" (the middle part of the buckwheat milling process after the white flour has been sifted out) are used as feed because of it's super high protein content and very sweet taste. Even the most picky of dogs can not turn them down!
Health Benefits
Ginger: Ginger's health benefits have long been known of from ancient Chinese culture to modern day western medicine. Ginger is regularly given to help alleviate gastrointestinal distress (gas) , nausea, and inflammation of joints and glands.
Parsley: Parsley contains a great amount of vitamin K, which was shown in scientific studies to help reduce tumor formation, particularly in the lungs. This leafy herb is also used as a breath freshener to keep those puppy kisses even more enjoyable!
Buckwheat: With a generous amount of magnesium (86mg in 1 cup) buckwheat relaxes blood vessels and increases blood flow and nutrient delivery. Buckwheat also has been shown in studies to contribute to blood sugar control. For more info on the vast amount of benefits of buckwheat, visit here.
Eggs, Oil, and Honey: The Omega3 fatty acids in the eggs and safflower oil lend a nice shiny coat to your dog. A healthy coat not only looks great, but it feels better for the dog, and they could be less prone to shedding. The honey is added in for a nice touch of sweetness.
