Dill Benefits:
Each ingredient in our treats is passionately researched and meticulously chosen to create the perfect and harmonious savory treat for your dog. Here are a few benefits for dill for your dog:
Digestion
If your dog is a living vacuum cleaner – picking up any food seconds after it falls on the ground – or if the garbage can is his idea of a buffet, it’s a good idea to keep some dill on hand. It’s known as an overall digestive aid, helping with gas, nausea, cramping and appetite.
Dill has antioxidant flavonoids which have several health benefits.
Kaempferol: This has anti-inflammatory properties and helps prevent diseases such as cancer and diabetes. It also protects your dog’s heart and acts as a neuroprotective agent
Vicenin: This helps protect your dog’s cells and chromosomes from radiation, oxygen-based damage, and damaged caused due to free radicals which cause chronic and severe diseases such as cancer, organ diseases, and joint problems
“One teaspoon of dill seeds contains calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium (trace amount), zinc, thiamine, riboflavin, niacin, Vitamin A, a variety of amino acids and dietary fiber. It also offers anethofuran and limonene, which increase the production of cancer fighting enzymes like glutathione S-transferase. The latter reacts with certain types of carcinogenic chemicals, eliminating them from the body. In fact, it is a chemoprotective food, just like parsley, and has also been shown to have antibacterial qualities like garlic. Dill is not an allergenic food, and does not contain measurable amounts of oxalates or purines.” AnimalWellnessMagazine
