Why can’t I just feed my dog carrots I buy at the store?

Why Olewo Carrots for Dogs?

Carrots are often fed to dogs, but not in the correct form for our furry friends to properly digest and reap the healthy benefits. Olewo Carrots are prepared in the correct form to benefit our dogs. The fiber is already broken down for our dogs to easily digest, absorb and utilize the vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients to benefit their health.

Olewo Carrots for dogs are made from 100% non-GMO carrots and are preserved through gentle dehydration. Our carrots are super nutritious because the vegetables go directly from field to preparation to preserve their valuable nutrients.

Olewo Carrots function as a natural dog multivitamin providing essential whole food vitamins, minerals, as well as phytonutrients and healthy fiber for dogs they need to thrive. Our carrots for dogs boost immunity, provide dog digestive support for regular, normal bowel movements and stool consistency, and promote healthy skin and coat for amazing looks.

Reasons Store-Bought Carrots won’t Produce the Same Results

Already Depleted of Nutrients

Carrots, like all root vegetables, start losing vitamins and other valuable nutrients as soon as they come out of the ground at harvest and are exposed to light, air, and moisture.

In the produce section at the grocery store, the carrots are exposed to all those conditions causing further nutrient loss. Even the fresh bundles of carrots with the green tops are losing valuable nutrition. With the bagged carrots, there is no telling how long ago those were harvested.

Dogs Cannot Digest Raw Carrots

Dogs are not able to digest raw carrots because they lack the necessary enzymes. Therefore, the chewed up pieces of carrots pass through their system undigested, without the nutrients being absorbed.

Shredding carrots, or running them through a food processor helps some to make the vegetable more digestible, but since the store-bought carrots already lost much of their valuable nutrition, our dogs will not reap the same benefits compared to feeding Olewo Carrots.

Dogs Cannot Fully Benefit from Cooked Carrots

Cooking vegetables can cause loss of nutrients, especially water-soluble vitamins. When starting out with store-bought carrots that are already depleted of nutrients, and further depleting nutrients during the cooking process, our dogs will not reap the same benefits compared to feeding Olewo Carrots.
