I am the proud mommy of 5 furry pets. After the recent pet food poisoning scare I decided to do some research. I was absolutely horrified to find out I was poisoning my dogs.Many pet foods claim to be “100% nutritionally complete and balanced. This claim legally can be made and printed on commercial products based on information studies using isolated nutrients and not whole foods.
These tests ignore important nutritional issues and give consumers a false sense of knowledge and security.There are more than forty known, essential nutrients… thus, making sure a food contains appropriate amounts of only a dozen of these nutrients can’t possibly assure that a food is complete.
You see, the major dog food companies fill their processed food with preservatives to increase it’s shelf life and maximize their profits. They know these preservatives kill millions of pets every single year but without them, their profits would not be as large,and that is the bottom line.
In fact, through my own research I discovered dog food contains at least 6 deadly chemicals that have been banned from human foods because they cause:
Kidney cancer
Bladder cancer
Skin cancer
Stomach cancer
Spleen cancer
Leukemia
Liver dysfunction
Major organ failure
Immune system collapse
Severe allergic reactions
Birth Defects
Blindness
Chronic Diarrhea
Hair Loss and
Behavior problems, including increased aggressiveness –> very dangerous if your dog is around children And if you think, like I did, that buying foods labeled as chemical and preservative free makes them safe, think again.
I can’t believe that they are allowed to get away with this! I am relieved to say that I have found a much healthier way to feed my babies. If you would like more info on these dog food secrets check out the links below.
