TORONTO — CULT Food Science Corp., a company involved in the development, and commercialization of cellular agriculture technologies and products, announces a partnership with JellaTech to launch a line of collagen enhanced pet foods under the Indiana Pets brand created by CULT.
With cell-cultured collagen, Indiana Pets can deliver nutrition to dogs, with lower environmental impact. Collagen is a vital protein that plays a significant role in maintaining the structural integrity of our bodies. It is found in our bones, skin, tendons, and cartilage, among other tissues, and provides support, elasticity, and strength. Collagen production decreases with age, leading to the loss of skin elasticity, joint pain, and other age-related ailments.
Collagen has been shown to benefit dogs with mobility issues, including osteoarthritis. This high purity, tier-1 collagen, is formulated specifically for active and senior dogs. As pets age, they may experience joint pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Supplementing their diet with collagen can help support joint health and improve mobility, allowing them to live a more comfortable and active lifestyle.
Producing collagen in a lab also offers significant environmental benefits compared to traditional animal-based sources. Animal-based collagen production involves slaughtering animals and processing their skin and bones to extract collagen. This process results in significant environmental impacts, such as greenhouse gas emissions, water use, and land use.
The partnership between CULT and Jellatech is expected to have a significant impact on the pet food industry and the environment.
The availability of Indiana Pet products will be announced in the near future.
