With our new Beyond Nature's Protein dry pet food, we are offering a complete nutritious alternative to conventional dog and cat products, while taking care of the planet's precious resources by diversifying the protein sources. Nestlé Purina Petcare EMENA CEO Bernard Meunier said: 'Every ingredient in our food serves a purpose. The protein sources were blended to deliver all essential amino acids dogs and cats need, with different levels of insect proteins for each. The new pet food was developed taking into consideration the different nutritional requirements of cats and dogs, as well as their different taste profiles. All the ingredients are steamed to maintain nutrient quality. The millet and fava beans provide protein, energy, and fibre to aid digestion. The insect protein comes from black soldier fly larvae, which are already in use in animal feed in Europe. Both recipes are available for dogs and cats. Veterinarians and nutritionists at Purina have put together two recipes: one based on chicken, pig's liver and millet the second using insect protein, chicken and fava beans. Purina Beyond Nature's Protein will first be sold in Switzerland from November. The new line includes insects as well as plant protein from fava beans and millet. Nestlé Purina is launching pet food that builds on alternative proteins to make better use of the planet's resources.
