Nature’s Boost: Superfoods that Matter

When it comes to nourishing your dog or cat, the ingredients on the label matter—but so do the tiny additions that make a big difference. At ZEAL, our recipes are filled with more than just high-quality meat. Every bite is purposefully enhanced with natural superfoods that support real health benefits, from joint care to digestive strength to immune resilience.

What Makes a Superfood “Super”?

Superfoods earn their name by offering concentrated nutrition. They deliver essential vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and functional compounds-naturally. When included in a pet’s daily diet, these ingredients can reinforce systems like immunity, digestion, and mobility in ways synthetic additives can’t replicate.

ZEAL New Zealand Wet Food: Thoughtfully Formulated with Purpose

In our wet food range , every ingredient is there for a reason. You’ll find:
  • Green-Lipped Mussel – Native to New Zealand and prized for its natural content of glucosamine, chondroitin, and omega-3s to support joint function, reduce inflammation, and improve mobility.
  • Salmon Oil – A clean source of EPA and DHA that promotes a healthy coat, supports brain function, and helps manage inflammation.
  • Egg Yolk – Rich in biotin and lecithin, helping nourish skin, coat, and cognitive health.
  • Dried Kelp – A natural source of iodine and trace minerals that support metabolism and thyroid function.
  • Peas & Yeast – For natural fiber and B-vitamins, supporting gut health and energy metabolism.
All paired with high-meat inclusions (94%) and crafted in small batches, ZEAL’s wet food delivers daily nourishment with integrity.

ZEAL Canada Air-Dried Food: 96% Meat with a Functional Edge

Our air-dried recipes go further by blending ethically sourced meats with a vibrant mix of functional fruits, roots, and botanicals—each selected for its health-boosting properties:
  • Pumpkin – A gentle fiber source that supports digestion and gut health.
  • Ginger Root – Naturally soothing to the stomach and known for its anti-inflammatory effects.
  • Turmeric Root – A powerhouse for joint health and immune modulation thanks to curcumin.
  • Yucca Schidigera Extract – Helps reduce stool odor and supports a healthy intestinal environment.
  • Kelp – Just like in our wet food, it helps nourish metabolism with bioavailable minerals.
  • Organic Fruits & Vegetables – Including cranberry, beet, tart cherry, spinach, apple, tomato, shiitake mushroom, and more—each adding phytonutrients, antioxidants, and trace minerals.
We even include green-lipped mussel in our Canadian air-dried range—sourced from the same pristine New Zealand waters—bringing joint benefits across both product lines.
Why Superfoods Matter More Today
Modern pets often experience stressors their ancestors didn’t: ultra-processed diets, reduced physical activity, and indoor lifestyles. Superfoods bridge the gap between what’s convenient and what’s biologically supportive. At ZEAL, we’re not just feeding pets—we’re helping restore the benefits of whole-prey, species-appropriate eating, enhanced with nature’s most intelligent ingredients.
