Barkwheats Dog Biscuits are hand crafted in Maine using organic, locally produced, grain-free and gluten-free ingredients. They are baked with certified organic buckwheat flour which is NOT a grain, but a berry, so it's safe for dogs with grain allergies. Nearly 100% of the ingredients are sourced from neighboring small scale, organic farms.
Barkwheats come packaged in a sustainably-harvested, biodegradable bag and sturdy 100% recycled paperboard box that you can easily toss in your compost bin.
Ingredients Health Benefits:
Buckwheat: Despite the name, buckwheat is not a wheat, not a grain - it is a berry. Buckwheat is also a very low glycemic food, meaning it won't cause a spike in blood sugar when eaten, which can aggravate or potentiate ailments like canine diabetes. Buckwheat contains magnesium, which relaxes blood vessels, improving blood flow and nutrient delivery.
SeaVeg: With its ability to scavenge heavy metals from the body, sea vegetables (also known as bladderwrack or rockweed) help protect dogs from illness.
Ginger: This root is known to alleviate joint and gland inflammation and aid in digestion.
Parsley: In addition to freshening breath, parsley is high in Vitamin K which has been shown to reduce tumor formation in animals.
Pumpkin: Pumpkin is full of beta-carotenoids which have been shown to fight free radicals that can cause cancer and other diseases.
