Pet Nutrition

If you ask a conventional veterinarian or even a board-certified veterinary nutritionist if you should feed your dog or cat biologically appropriate pet food, you're bound to get a rapid response that it's not scientifically proven to be superior. But here's the dark secret they're not telling you.

The big players in the ultraprocessed pet food industry seem confused as to whether biologically appropriate nutrition is important for dogs and cats

Sales of biologically appropriate, fresher food commercial diets are increasing because a growing number of pet parents are searching for better ways to treat the epidemic of chronic illness in dogs and cats

There is much less research into fresher, biologically appropriate diets, compared to ultraprocessed pet foods, however, existing studies do show that given the choice, both dogs and cats will choose to eat food very low in carbohydrates, and that fresher foods offer vast microbiome benefits

While pet food industry giants and the conventional veterinary community continue to insist carb-heavy, highly refined, biologically inappropriate diets are just fine for dogs and cats, it will remain the job of pet parents to use common sense and seek better nutrition for their animal companions
