All our ingredients are consciously chosen with a focus on quality, safety, and sustainability. Our recipe contains natural, USDA-inspected chicken, rich organ meat, and superfoods bursting with polyphenols, antioxidants, and phytonutrients like pumpkin, broccoli, blueberries, turmeric, parsley, oregano, and cinnamon. Packed with animal protein and fatty acids (Omega 3 and Omega 6), it supports high energy, a healthy skin coat, healthy digestion, strong bones and teeth, and a healthy immune system. Humankind also contains natural sources of taurine (lots of human-grade chicken to support heart health).

This is real, nutrient-rich human-grade food - not animal feed-grade ingredients.

Formulated by Leading Fresh Food Experts and Veterinarians far exceeds nutrition requirements

Natural Chicken

Delicious chicken is our first, second, third, and fourth ingredients and consists of USDA-inspected, 100% human-grade deboned chicken, chicken hearts, chicken breast, and chicken liver sourced from U.S. farms. Each cut provides a rich source of nutrients, including a natural source of taurine, iron, vitamin B, niacin, and amino acids (building blocks of protein). Chicken is a good energy source, helps build strong bones and muscle, promotes healthy skin and shiny coat, and taurine promotes a healthy heart. Equally important, it is rich in lean protein that your pet craves.

Fresh beef liver

A nutrient-rich food packed with essential vitamins and minerals, including iron, potassium, copper, Vitamin A, C, B12, and phosphorus. The benefits of beef liver include promoting healthy blood and muscle function (iron), important to help keep eyes and skin healthy (Vitamins A and K) the essential fatty acids support brain and joint health. Zinc in beef liver also helps with the immune system.

Freshly Harvested Pumpkin

A natural source of numerous vitamins and minerals like manganese, vitamins A, C, E, and K, Zinc, and phosphorus. It is also a great source of fiber and can help improve digestion (soothe the stomach), and help with constipation and diarrhea.

Blueberries (whole fruit)

Rich in Vitamin K, manganese, and antioxidants, blueberries promote the healthy metabolism of fats and carbohydrates, and help combat inflammation.

Broccoli

Filled with folic acid, vitamin C, vitamin K, and chromium, broccoli supports healthy cells and acts as an antioxidant.

Flaxseed

Flaxseed, a type of lignans, fiber and a great whole food source of the required essential fatty acid alpha-linolenic acid (ALA), which supports a healthy skin and coat.

Natural Egg Shells

A sustainable, upcycled, whole-food source of calcium carbonate, essential for healthy bones and teeth. Also contain eggshell membrane, which benefits joints, tendons, and ligaments.

Natural Vinegar

Natural buffered vinegar contains many flavonoids, phenolic acids, and aldehydes. Vinegar is a natural way to kill bacteria and prevent mold growth in foods.

Natural Cinnamon

Cinnamon contains potent antioxidants and anti-fungal and anti-inflammatory properties. It also helps promote heart health and helps regulate blood sugar levels.

Natural Rosemary

The herb is a natural antioxidant and preservative. It also supports your pet’s immune system and digestive tract. It contains antimicrobial qualities that can help balance the healthy bacteria in the gut.

Organic Kelp

Because it absorbs the nutrients from its surrounding marine environment, kelp is rich in vitamins, minerals, and enzymes. It’s often considered a “superfood” due to its mineral content and is especially concentrated in iodine which is important for optimal thyroid function and metabolism.

Natural Parsley

Parsley is one of the most popular herbs in the world as it contains a natural source of vitamins A, B-12, C, K, and essential fatty acids. Vitamin C helps to provide immune support. Vitamin A is important for the development of your pet's vision and immune health.

Natural Oregano

The herb has significant antibacterial, antifungal, and antioxidant action with loads of vitamin K.

Natural Turmeric

Another holistic “superfood” due to its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The active ingredient in turmeric, curcumin, helps boost the immune system, aids in digestion and helps with pain associated with joints.

Organic Wildflower Honey from certified organic beehives and wildflower blossoms

Full of antimicrobial, antifungal, and antiviral properties that can help reduce infection while promoting healing. Pets love the sweet taste, and it helps improve the texture of the product.

Natural Vitamin E

Vitamin E is an essential nutrient that promotes a healthy immune system and healthy skin and coat in dogs. One of vitamin E's most important functions is as an antioxidant to protect against oxidative damage. This vitamin is also essential to cell function and fat metabolism. Natural Vitamin E is much better absorbed in the body than synthetic versions, which are more commonly found in pet foods.

Vitamins and Minerals

Almost all our nutrients (99.9%) are from whole foods and herbs. There are two supplements we needed to add to obtain the desired levels for a healthy dog: Zinc amino acid chelate and Vitamin D3 supplement.
