About

Just like the protein coming from animal meat and offal sources, whole egg is a highly digestible, source of complete protein.

In particular, methionine and cysteine are two important essential amino acids that eggs are a rich source of. For dogs, these amino acids are needed in adequate amounts as the building blocks for the amino acid taurine which is not essential but “conditionally essential”. A conditionally essential amino acid is one that is critically important for health but can be made by the body, providing its amino acid building blocks are plentiful enough in the diet. In the case of taurine, dogs need enough methionine and cystine in their diet to make this important amino acid that is critical for heart health. This makes these amino acids extremely important for dogs to obtain consistently and in good amounts from their diet. In addition to their importance in the manufacture of taurine, methionine and cysteine are also important for maintaining a healthy skin and coat. In cats, methionine, cysteine, and taurine are all essential and must be provided in adequate levels from the diet.

Egg is also a rich source of the nutrient choline. Choline is essential for healthy liver function, helping the system process and utilise fatty acids from the diet.

Egg shell is a source of calcium, important for healthy growth and development, bones, and teeth.

Several articles have shown that daily supplementation of eggshell membrane into a diet can, and has, reduced joint pain, stiffness, and arthritis. Inclusion of whole egg in the diet means that pets can benefit from the eggshell membrane to help joint health through their life.

In addition to these benefits, egg yolk is a good source of vitamin A, B2, and B5.
