Holistic, Whole Health Ingredients "Holistic": An ingredient-based,
nutritional approach to the overall, "whole" health of the pet. It promotes
the use of quality ingredients and nutraceutical ingredients that have a
positive effect on pet wellness. It avoids use of ingredients that may do
harm, i.e., ingredients that cause allergies, so that traditional medicine, in
this case shots, can be minimized.
Free Range
Certified Organically Grown Chicken...an Eagle Pack Exclusive
Eagle Pack uses all-natural, certified organically grown meat from free range
chickens. Raised on a feed formula containing no herbicides, pesticides,
poultry by-products, fish meal, or protein supplements, the birds are given no
hormones, antibiotics, or growth stimulants. No chlorine or fluorides are
added to the pure, clean spring water provided the chickens. Our suppliers—a
Mennonite/Amish family-owned poultry business—have perfected a full,
rich-flavored chicken and earned a coveted certification from the Natural
Organic Farmers Association. They ship from USDA-approved plants to
supermarkets and grocery stores nationwide, stocking meat and butcher cases
for human consumption. No other pet food but Eagle Pack is made with this, the
purest of human-grade chicken.
Alfalfa
(Sun-Cured)
Alfalfa aids in many ailments, such as: healing allergies, stomach ailments
and bad breath. It cleanses the kidneys and removes poisons from the body,
neutralizes acids, is an excellent blood purifier, improves the appetite and
aids in the assimilation of protein, calcium and other nutrients. Eagle Pack
combines alfalfa with an enzyme supplement to improve digestion and pet's
ability to utilize nutrients. Older pets will appreciate alfalfa's
anti-inflammatory properties.
Dandelion
"By the nineteenth century, dandelion had also become a potherb in Europe and
America." Of herbal medicinal value, the juice of the dandelion root has been
used by herbalists to treat diabetes and liver diseases. "Dandelion is both a
nutritive herb and one of the best herbs for building up the blood as well as
for curing anemia, contends one herbalist. It is said to act as...an aid in
digestion, and as an appetite stimulant".
Garlic Garlic has anti-viral properties,
which can be of benefit to your pet's respiratory system, since they are
vulnerable to colds. In addition, garlic is an antibacterial, anti-septic, and
encourages sinus drainage.
Peas, Carrots, and
Sweet Potato
"Many holistic veterinarians suggest a diet with fresh veggies, particularly
grated raw carrots, beets and celery, and whole grains to help ease
arthritis."(2) High in vitamin A and beta-carotene, peas also provide a good
source of natural niacin and other B vitamins.
Amaranth Easy to digest, Amaranth also has
high levels of lysine, a nutritionally critical amino acid, high in linoleic
acid, necessary for human nutrition, and high protein for extra energy.
Amaranth is less likely to cause allergies since it is unrelated to other food
crops that are commonly consumed.
Organic Quinoa
(keen-wa)
OCIA Certified
For thousands of years, the Inca Indians have called this herb "the grain of
the gods". Considered one of the most perfect foods, it is now grown in North
America. Also considered at least equal to milk in protein quality, it has
high levels of energy, calcium, phosphorus, iron and B vitamins. You will find
Quinoa in most health food stores, and is included in our Holistic Select
Feline formula.
Oatmeal A good source of carbohydrates and
fiber and is high in iron. Oatmeal has natural anti-itch properties;
therefore, in 1967, the veterinary dermatology group recommended using oatmeal
on dogs with skin allergies.

urinary tract, urinary pH, and acts as a taste stimulant. (cat formulas)
