What are the advantages of cooking?
The gentle cooking process allows the BARF to be optimally utilized by the dog, while vitamins and minerals are retained. Cooked meat is often easy to digest, especially for older dogs, as cooked meat is already partially denatured, making digestion a little easier for the stomach as the structure of the proteins is broken down during cooking. Cooking also preserves the natural flavor of the food. It is particularly good for sensitive foods such as fish or certain vegetables, as the mild heat does not dry them out or overcook them.
