The importance of proteins in insect based dog food

  • What are proteins?
    Proteins consist of 22 amino acids that are the building blocks of the dog's body. A dog can synthesise 12 amino acids itself and thus needs 10 additional amino acids from the daily diet. Imby's insect based dog food provides each of these amino acids in abundance.
  • The function of proteins
    Proteins help build and repair body tissue and muscle mass. They also have a crucial role in making new skin cells and hormones. Finally, proteins contribute to a stronger immune system and, like carbohydrates, provide the necessary dose of daily energy.
  • Which proteins does a dog require?
    The origin of proteins plays a role mainly because of the underlying amino acid compositions. Imby's insect dog food is designed to contain all the essential amino acids in frequent form to provide your dog with his daily dose of energy.
  • The proteins in dog food made from insects
    Proteins in dog food are often of animal origin. At Imby, the proteins come from insects. These have the advantage of being enormously rich in amino acids, making them a perfect meat substitute. They are supplemented with sweet potato, blueberries, brocolli and cranberries, among others. You can consider them one of the best insect dog foods in UK.

Feedback from veterinarians

Dogs’ digestion improves with this food and dogs like it. We have put a few dogs with gastrointestinal problems on the food who have been doing significantly better since then! We are very happy to have Imby in our veterinary clinic)

Fan of Imby! As this food contains only one hypoallergenic protein source (insect), it is an ideal food for many food-allergic dogs. The results are remarkable, even the dog’s overall health improves. The hypoallergenic snacks are also well tolerated and very eagerly eaten!

Do dogs not require meat in their diet?

Dogs are omnivores, not carnivores. So they can survive just fine on dog food based on insects and vegetable ingredients. Imby’s food has the advantage that insect proteins are perfect meat substitutes and thus provide all the nutrients dogs need. Moreover, unlike chicken, beef or lamb, the chance of an allergic reaction is very low with insect dog food. This is also why many vets recommend our food to their patients.

Sustainable dog food for a healthy planet

Insect protein dog food is much more sustainable and obviously animal-friendly than meat production. 20% of global meat production is consumed by our pets and this has a huge negative impact on our climate. Specifically, it has a negative impact on greenhouse gas emissions, water consumption, land use and biodiversity. Insects and plants have a much lower impact on the environment than meat. At Imby, we try to source all our ingredients as locally as possible and produce in Belgium to minimise our footprint and support the local economy. Thanks to our carefully formulated recipes developed by veterinarians, our insect based dog food is also considered complete and is also a very good food to avoid allergies in your dog.

Insect food for dogs is hypoallergenic

Our insect based dog food is free from traditional animal proteins, wheat and barley. Consequently, it fits squarely into the category of hypoallergenic dog food. Besides insect protein, our food contains a wide range of natural ingredients. These provide all the essential amino acids and nutrients your dog needs. The plant-based ingredients include sweet potato, pumpkin, algae oil, blueberries, cranberries, spinach, olive oil and other plant-based ingredients. It has a low risk of an allergic reaction and is an ideal solution for dogs who value animal welfare and global warming. Ever wonder where to buy the best insect dog food in UK?
