Chicken is the most common animal protein source in pet food for a number of good reasons. First of all, it is abundantly available globally and a relatively trouble-free animal species in terms of export health certifications and religious sensitivity. Animal welfare initiatives with regard to chicken, such as slow-growing breeds and increased outdoor access, are adopted globally. Chicken’s carbon footprint is relatively small while by-products, such as chicken meal, chicken MDM, and chicken plasma, have an excellent nutritional profile or functional properties.
In human cuisine, broths are famous for being a tasty source of collagen. Broth or bone broth is also regarded as a premium pet food ingredient. It is mostly used in wet pet food recipes and also applied as a liquid topper to pour on extruded kibbles. The collagen found in broth can help improve the skin and coat condition of pets, and reduce mobility problems related to bones, muscles, and cartilage. Chicken broth powder is produced by cooking the animal’s bones and defatting the derived soluble proteins. The liquid product is concentrated and then spray dried to form a broth powder. IQI pure chicken broth is of European origin and produced in a human-grade facility.
