From the pristine surrounds of the Noosa Hinterlands of Australia comes a new benchmark in functional pet foods & treats. DAYA Pet Food Co., founded by award-winning Australian nutritionist and author Honor Tremain, has officially launched an innovative freeze-dried raw supplemental kibble and treats range.

Designed for discerning, health-conscious dog owners, the collection bridges the gap between evidence-based nutrition and unique sustainable superfoods. Built around a “Food as Medicine” philosophy, the range focuses on supporting the gut microbiome & reducing systemic inflammation two pillars now recognised as central to longevity and wellbeing in both humans and pets.


The science of raw, reinvented


While conventional cooked kibble has long dominated the market, many nutritionists query its digestibility and long-term health impacts. DAYA’s Raw freeze-dried kibble preserves up to 98% of the nutritional value of their raw, whole-food ingredients delivering peak bioavailable nutrients in a convenient, gentle, shelf-stable format.


The formulations extend the principles introduced in Tremain’s acclaimed Longevity Books for humans & recently released Recipe Book for Dogs, translating scientific health discoveries into ready-to-serve meals and products.


Each formula in the DAYA range is crafted around:

  • Single-animal proteins paired with hypoallergenic superfoods

  • High concentrations of essential Omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins and minerals

  • Multi-functional versatility served as crunchy treats, nutrient-dense raw-style kibble, or rehydrate to expand up to four times in size as a wet food.


Innovation spotlight: SeaO₂ Nanno™


A defining feature of the range is its integration of SeaO₂ Nanno™, an Australian-grown, Byron Bay–based producer of premium wholefood nannochloropsis microalgae, that signals a new frontier in sustainable pet nutrition.


This nutrient-dense ingredient delivers:


  • One of the richest, natural, plant-based, whole-algae sources of EPA Omega-3

  • Omega-7, carotenoids and beta-glucans

  • 50% complete protein with a full essential amino acid profile,

  • Comprehensive support for cardiovascular, cognitive, gut, inflammatory and metabolic health


“I’m proud to extend my passion for anti-inflammatory superfood ingredients into the pet world,” says Honor Tremain. “Collaborating with premium Australian producers and manufacturers allows us to innovate not just premium pet formulas for food & treats, but how we process and preserve them eco-consciously for maximum benefit.”


Sustainability with substance


Recently awarded Best Health-Conscious Dog Food Brand 2025 – Australia, DAYA Pet Food Co. embeds social impact into its business model. Through its partnership with Tap4Change, the brand supports leading charities across animal welfare and sustainability initiatives.


DAYA’s new Raw range includes:

  • Sardines with Extra Omega-3 – Targeted support for skin, coat and joint health

  • Organic Whole Chicken & Brown Rice – A gentle, nourishing option for sensitive digestive systems
