What Makes Azmira Formulas so Different?
USDA MEATS & WHOLE GRAINS
Azmira uses the finest Grade A meats and Grade 1 whole grains. The meats in dry foods are in a meal form to provide more "concentrated" nutrition. The grains are only whole grains, and all are pressure cooked to preserve their nutritional value and enhance digestibility.
Whole Ground Barley - full of essential nutrients and easy to digest
Oatmeal - a heart smart food that is an excellent fiber and is clinically proven to lower cholesterol
Whole Ground Grain Sorghum - rich in amino acids, gluten free, and is alkalizing to the stomach
CHELATED MINERALS
Because minerals are hard for the body to absorb, Azmira’s uses minerals that are chelated or "attached" to easily absorbable amino acids, for better digestion. As a result, the minerals are over 100% more readily absorbed than commonly used inorganic minerals.
ESTER-C®
Like a chelated mineral, this patented form of Vitamin C is up to four times more bio-available than ordinary Vitamin C.
BARRIER PACKAGING
These bags are superior to paper and even zip lock bags in many ways. Clinical tests proved no rancidity for well over nine months! This resulted in food being kept as fresh as the day it was made. Vitamins remained potent, thus making them more effective. All the other ingredients also retained their "farm freshness", making them taste better, more bio-available and all around better for your dog.
To get technical, traditional multi-ply paper bags have over 1200 cc’s of air moving in and out of the bag - daily - resulting in spoilage (rancidity). If you had put that food into zip lock baggies there would be well over 600 cc’s of air transfer. In our barrier bag there is only 3 cc’s of air being transferred - not enough to effect rancidity. Of course, the primary goal is to get the food into your pantry as soon as possible after it is made. But isn’t it nice to know it will stay fresh regardless of when you buy it. Also, by storing your food in Azmira’s barrier bag with the open end folded down (with three folds), your food will remain fresher, longer.
ALL LIFE STAGES
Azmira has formulated both Azmira animal nutrition's dry and canned formulas to be a healthy, nutrient rich diet for cats and dogs of all life stages and lifestyles. By varying the amount you feed accordingly, your pet will get all of the necessary nutrients in every bite.
