Why Paw-der?
RICH IN NUTRIENTS
Wheatgrass contains vitamins A, C, E and K, as well as B vitamins, calcium, iron, magnesium and amino acids. These nutrients contribute to your pets immune health, energy levels and overall vitality.
DETOXIFYING
Wheatgrass is known for its detoxifying properties. It contains chlorophyll, which may help to cleanse the liver and remove toxins from a pet's body, potentially reducing the risk of disease.
Improved Digestion
Wheatgrass can aid digestion, which is helpful for pets with sensitive stomachs or those prone to digestive issues. The fiber in wheatgrass supports healthy gut function and can relieve mild constipation.
antioxidant benefits
The antioxidants in wheatgrass help fight oxidative stress and inflammation, which may protect pets from cellular damage and support a healthy immune system.
Natural Freshener
Some pet owners find that wheatgrass helps with bad breath, as its chlorophyll acts as a natural deodoriser.
Supports Fur and Skin Health
The vitamins and minerals in wheatgrass contribute to a pets coat and skin health, promoting a shiny, healthy appearance.
Sulforaphane: A Nutritious Miracle
What is it?
Sulforophane is a naturally occurring compound found in cruciferous vegetables, such as broccoli, kale, cabbage and brussel sprouts. It is a type of isothiocyanate, which is a sulfur-containing compound known for its potential health benefits.
How is it produced?
Sulforophane is produced when a compound called glucoraphanin interacts with the enzyme tyrosinase, which is activated when the plant tissue is damaged (e.g. chopped or chewed).
Why should I consume it?
There are many health benefits to sulforaphane:
- Antioxidant and Anti-Inflammatory: Sulforaphane helps neutralise free radicals and reduce inflammation.
- Detoxification: It supports the body's natural detox processes by enhancing the activity of phase 2 detoxifying enzymes in the liver.
- Cancer Prevention: Studies suggest that sulforaphane may have anti-cancer properties ny promoting apoptosis (cell death) in cancer cells and inhibiting tutor growth.
- Brain Health: It has neuroprotective effects and may reduce the risk of neurodegenerative diseases.
- Heart Health: Sulforaphane may help improve blood pressure and reduce the risk of cardiovascular diseases.
Where does it come from?
High levels of glucoraphanin (and therefore sulforaphane) are found in microgreens (10-14-day-old broccoli plants), which contain much more sulforaphane than mature broccoli.
Maximise Efficacy
To maximise sulforophane production, consume cruciferous vegetables raw or freeze dried to preserve the myrosinase enzyme. Cooking at high temperatures can deactivate tyrosinase reducing sulforaphane availability.
