Wholesome Ingredients for a Healthy Life

View All Ingredients

  • Beef

    Beef is a protein source that supports muscle development and energy.

  • Brown Rice

    Brown rice is a natural whole grain that provides pets essential B vitamins and minerals, and high-quality complex carbohydrates for energy and fibre.

  • Carrots

    Carrots are an excellent source of beta carotene, fibre, vitamin K1, potassium and antioxidants.

  • Blueberries

    Blueberries are an excellent source of vitamins A & C, potassium and fibre, and support antioxidant enrichment.

  • Flaxseed

    Flaxseed is a rich source of essential omega 3 fatty acids and is a great source of fibre that aids in digestion and promotes healthy skin and coat.

  • Chicken Meal

    Chicken meal is an extremely rich source of protein, providing pets with supplemental energy and nutrients while aiding in digestion.

  • Cranberries

    Antioxidant-rich cranberries are a great source of vitamins C, E and K, as well as manganese.

Exclusive Antioxidant-Rich LifeSource Bits™

BLUE's exclusive LifeSource Bits are a precise blend of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals carefully selected by veterinarians and animal nutritionists that help support:

  • Immune system health
  • Life stage requirements
  • Healthy oxidative balance

And LifeSource Bits are cold-formed to help retain the potency of their ingredients. This means that we minimize the amount of heat that LifeSource Bits are exposed to during the manufacturing process. It’s the same concept as when you cook vegetables at high heat — the longer you do, the more heat-sensitive nutrients are lost.
