When refined, rice germ oil is usually a tasteless oil that is intended to support muscle development in dogs. This is why it is often used in breeding or for performance dogs. Older dogs can also benefit from feeding them rice germ oil. This is due to the comparatively high amounts of essential oils, linoleic and palmitic acids, and gamma oryzanol. Mix about one to two milliliters per ten kilograms into your dog's BARF daily.
In order for the rice germ oil to help your dog, it is extracted from the bran of rice grains, which is rich in fat, protein and vitamins. If you want to use the rice germ oil for your BARF dog food , it is important that the oil is refined. In contrast to cold pressing, which is used for many vegetable oils, this is the only way to ensure that the ingredients remain stable.
Since the gamma oryzanol contained in the product is on the doping list in equestrian sports, we recommend checking the relevant tournament regulations in advance, even for performance dogs. This way you are on the safe side when feeding rice germ oil.
