The Perils of Commercial Pet Food – A Personal Encounter January 30, 2012

Posted by admin in : Articles , trackback

My first cat, Venus, get, when I was young and naive, began a diet of commercial feed with a lot of meat and fresh fish, eggs and cheese, and 15 years later added, like an old lady, she was very partial to his “crunchies.” So I come from the cat food dry best on the market for them. A Canadian brand will be promoted by veterinarians worldwide leader makes a lot of high-quality ingredients and preserved only with natural compounds such as vitamin C. To be honest, the list of ingredients, how to read a gourmet tasting menu, including delicious things, like real chicken and salmon, chicken liver and chicken fat, eggs, turkey, whitefish, alfalfa, kelp, pumpkin and other fresh vegetables and whole herbs.

Unfortunately, Australia’s quarantine laws required that food be irradiated before the entrance into the country. Some human foods such as herbs and tropical fruits are spent on imports, but a lot of imported feed are given huge amounts of radiation – about 5 to 10 times the human dose! The irradiation Venus incorporated in such a way that it changed extremely toxic to cats. A number of cats eating Australian developed irreversible neurological disease and had to be euthanized. A reminder of food followed.

At that time, approximately 40% of the diet consisted of the Venus of gourmet dry. Consequently, it was one of the cats with an irreversible neurological disorder. She lost a lot of weight, developed wobbly hind legs, had difficulty swallowing his food, and could not urinate or defecate properly. She even began breathing problems. She has not responded to treatment and had his euthanasia.

I am still enthusiastic about the benefits of preparing a natural balance, home-cooked food for the animals. Since then I have further researched in the commercial feed and found very few that I recommend my patients vet, but there is evidence that real home cooked food is undoubtedly the best option.

Many veterinarians recommend feeding “premium” dry processed food prepared at home on diets and all the best option for your pet, but I’ve learned firsthand that this is far from the truth. Many of the commercial feed is available, and “premium” label can be very harmful to the health of your pet.

Although it is marketed as a creative perfect food for your pet, which is far from the truth. In the time since the food was available, we have witnessed a dramatic decline in the health of our pets. There are many factors that led to the disappearance of the health of our animal companions, including bad genetics, lifestyle and inadequate vaccination, but the plan is undoubtedly one of the most important. Skin diseases and dermatitis, allergies, ear infections, tooth and gum disease, poor digestion, pancreatitis, obesity, diabetes, arthritis, kidney failure, blockages anal glands, epilepsy and cancer are now among animal populations is endemic, and can all be linked to poor nutrition. It is no coincidence that diseases such as these become more common as the treated feed was available.

When you return to your pet as healthy as possible want is a balanced, natural, true-diet is crucial. My animals beef eat now very easy to foods that are rich in delicious, health-promoting ingredients, such as raw chicken neck or wing for the cat, or whole carcasses of raw chicken meat for dogs, bone lamb prepare raw, raw meats (lamb or chicken liver, heart and kidneys), raw fish, sardines or mackerel, raw eggs, yogurt, cottage cheese and a little cream or here and there. It is also important to make the green offer every day, so I chewed homegrown parsley or cabbage or wheat grass, and all the vegetables I have on hand, such as broccoli, carrots, celery, beets, cauliflower, sweet potatoes or pumpkin and the occasional piece of fruit such as apple, pear or pineapple. I provide important minerals such as kelp seaweed powder or flakes of nori. All food is provided, human kindness and organic if possible.

Enter a natural food for my animals, despite my busy life, proved to be simple, fast, inexpensive and rewarding. I am now confident that my animals, natural, nutritious food that promotes health and vitality, rather than ozone.
