{"product_id":"freeze-dried-herring","title":"Freeze Dried Herring","description":"\u003cp\u003eHerring is an extremely important dietary addition for carnivores because of its high levels of Essential Omega-3 fatty acids. Humans’, cats’, and dogs’ bodies lack the enzymes necessary to create Omega-3 fatty acids on our own, so since Omega-3 is vital to our health, we must consume foods rich in this nutrient to survive.  Marine animals are considered the best source for Essential Omega-3 fatty acids, with salmon, herring, mackerel, and sardines providing the richest amount. Some plants (flaxseeds, chia seeds and walnuts) contain Alpha-Linolenic Acid which the body can convert to Omega-3 but in a much less efficient process.  Seal and whale blubber and zooplankton are also high in Omega-3 fatty acids, but good luck finding them at your local supermarket or pet store.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Essential Omega-3 fatty acids found in herring assist heart function, promotes healthy skin\/hair\/fur, enhance fetal brain development and adult brain functioning, improves insulin sensitivity, aids eye and retina health, helps prevent anemia and contains vitamin B 12, Vitamin D, the hard-to-find mineral selenium and iron. Essential?  Absolutely!\u003cbr\u003e\nIn addition, herrings are rich in Omega-11 fatty acid, the little known but full of possibilities Cetoleic Acid.  Recent research has shown that Cetoleic Acid appears to boost the efficiency of Omega-3’s powerful benefits, making it a useful component in our pets and our own diets. If you want the benefits of a convenient, powerful source of Essential Omega-3 fatty acids in your pet’s diet, herring is a healthy choice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sunburst","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45663789547589,"sku":"8985274","price":1.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0747\/5766\/8933\/files\/original_d4d1ab8d-695a-46c6-b8ef-3191e7eede1c.jpg?v=1788155702","url":"https:\/\/kiwisdistinguishedpetgoods.com\/products\/freeze-dried-herring","provider":"Kiwi's Distinguished Pet Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
