5 Reasons Dogs Should Eat Papaya
Yes, The Wong Dogs
took a break because their dear daddy needed to work long hours. However, no
worries! It is the Christmas season and I am back with a truckload of blog
posts so do keep a look out on some festive ideas you don’t want your pet to
miss out!
But as it is a lazy
day, I decided the boys can do with some fruity treats and got down to slice
some papaya cubes for them. We all know they can consume this nutritious fruit
that is low in calories and high in vitamins. But what does all that mean? Here
are five loaded reasons why your canine should be considering papaya as one of
their treats.
1.SUPER SOURCE OF FIBRE, VITAMINS, FOLATE AND
POTASSIUM
Besides
not needing to worry about constipation problems, your canine will get vitamin
A, C, E along with carotenoids folate and potassium! Also, Papaya is known to
be beneficial in aiding against indigestion, especially if someone has been
having too many huge meals recently! Just remember that excess can lead to
watery stools!
2.PREVENTING HEART PROBLEMS AND OBESITY
It is
definitely not a cure. But due to Papaya thickening the artery walls, it can
aid good heart health. Also, it has been proven to strengthen their immune
system. Preliminary studies have also shown that certain allergies (and even
Colon and Prostate Cancer) can be treated or prevented while muscle injuries
(age-related degeneration) have shown improvement due to the consumption of
Papapya. Due to the fruit being relatively low in calories, it can help with
managing our pet’s weight. After all, what is better than giving our furkids a
guilt-free treat, right?
3.A PARASITE REMEDY!
If
you have seen videos of worms from a dog’s gut, you would totally get what I
mean! However, Papaya has been known to irritate and destroy worms within the
Gastrointestinal Tract!
4.ICY TREATS
There
are many ways to give it to your pet. But I love freezing them overnight and
giving it to Cory and Cole. I realise they tend to relish this version the
best. Also, all the nutrients are still intact unlike Papaya soup where some
nutrients could have been destroyed in the boiling process.
5.IN DAILY DIETS!
If you
look closely at the ingredient list on the packaging, some kibble brands such
as Timberwolf Organics (which Cory and Cole are currently on), Holistic Select
and Canine Caviar are just some of the brands that contain Papaine, an naturally
occurring extract derived from Papaya.
I am
sure there are many more reasons why this super fruit should be given to our
precious dogs. Now, start dishing out those treats! Fido is waiting... In our case, Cory and Cole are waiting... Impatiently!
