The unknown sugar in pet food
Selecting the right food for your canine companion is crucial for their health and wellbeing. As a pet owner, you want to provide your dog with nutrition that supports their vitality and longevity. However, not all dog foods are created equal. In fact, some brands have been consistently rated poorly by experts and consumers alike due to concerns over ingredients, nutritional adequacy, and overall quality. Commercial dog food, especially dried dog food, is made largely from the waste products of the food industry, everything that doesn’t pass the standards needed, to be put in human food. Instead of throwing these waste products out, companies recycle them into dog (and other animal) food, using bones, gristle, rotting fruits and vegetables, and worst of all: dead, dying, and diseased animals to make the food your dog eats. To keep this subpar food from noticeably rotting, dog food companies use chemicals and preservatives to keep it seeming fresh, selling what would be trash to dog owners for a profit.
