ORIJEN ADULT Biologically Appropriate for all Breeds
ORIJEN ADULT is formulated with a biologically correct ingredient ratio (70/30/0) of 70% meat, 30% fruit and vegetables (and 0% grain) - all low temperature cooked at 90c/195F to retain their natural nutrients.
With 7 sources of veterinary inspected meats from Canada's prairie farms, northern lakes and pacific seas, ORIJEN is nutritionally diverse and biologically complete with amino and fatty acids balanced to optimally nourish your dog. Made without grain, and with very little carbohydrate, ORIJEN is easily metabolized by all dogs.
Instead of grain, ORIJEN contains a full complement of regional fruits and vegetables (minimum 30%) that supply important natural antioxidants and phytochemicals.
Chicken, flax, sunflower, salmon and anchovy oils provide the essential fatty acids that dogs cannot produce themselves (including DHA and EPA) and are so important to nutritionally support the development of cell membranes, immune systems and a vibrant skin and hair coat.
Bridging the gap between good nutrition and total physical well-being, ORIJEN Adult contains native botanicals that include marshmallow, burdock and chicory root, stinging nettle and milk thistle,— all of which replicate the natural canine diet and help to soothe, nourish and tone the digestive tract, strengthen the liver and control insulin levels.
