100% Pasture-Raised Turkey made with Organic Sweet Potato, Pumpkin, & Beet

• Pasture-Raised Turkey: In addition to protein, turkey is full of B vitamins which support energy production, amino acid formation, the production of neurotransmitters, and the formation of red blood cells. Turkey is also a great source of selenium (supports thyroid function and metabolic health), zinc (supports immunity, gene expression, and a number of enzymatic reactions in the body), and phosphorus (supports bone health). Our turkey is carefully sourced and pasture-raised. Read more about the benefits of pasture-raised meats over conventional meats from one of our suppliers, White Oak Farms.

• Organic Sweet Potato: Rich in fiber, antioxidants, and beta carotene, a form of vitamin A that can support vision and immunity.
• Organic Beet: Beets are full of fiber and a number of vitamins and minerals, like folate, vitamin C, and magnesium. They also contain dietary nitrates which convert to nitric oxide in the body and help improve blood flow.
• Organic Avocado Oil: While many oils are inflammatory and damaging to your health, avocado oil has a relatively low level of omega 6 fatty acids (read more on why you want to keep your omega 3:6 ratio low here!). It also has a high smoke point, meaning it can tolerate a higher heat in cooking and avoid dangerous oxidation.

Fun fact: when it comes to our Bone Broth Recipe Collection, we call them “toddler purees” because they especially appeal to an older palate, but any baby six months and up can enjoy them!
