Sweet potato chips are made from fresh sweet potatoes. After being washed, peeled (or with the skin), and cut into strips, they are heated through boiling or steaming until fully cooked. The processing does not require complex additives. Just by being cooked at high temperatures, the potential microorganisms in the raw materials can be killed, reducing safety risks. At the same time, after being cooked, the sweet potato chips have a soft texture, which is easier for pets to chew and digest, especially suitable for pets with weak digestive functions (such as young puppies and kittens, and elderly pets), meeting the safety and palatability requirements of pet food raw materials.
Sweet potato chips can well retain the natural nutrients of sweet potatoes, and the nutrients are more easily absorbed by pets after processing. They contain vitamins A, C, and minerals such as potassium, which can provide basic nutrients needed by pets on a daily basis. The abundant dietary fiber decomposes more easily after being cooked, which can promote the intestinal peristalsis of pets and help maintain the normal function of the digestive system. The carbohydrates after heating are converted into a more easily absorbable form, which can serve as a stable energy source for pets and meet the nutritional needs of pets at different physiological stages.
