Kibble

Food is so much more than just fuel for our body: the food you eat speaks to your cells instructing your DNA’s functionality.

That’s why we always hear our doctors tell us that eating processed food is not good for us. Some of us still eat those things but we try to eat it in moderation and squeeze in some healthy fruits and vegetables daily too.
So it is only natural to see food as the same for our dogs. Unfortunately, the food that many professionals today are still recommending is a highly processed kibble

It’s because we have been led to believe that it has all of the right ingredients needed for our dogs to live happy healthy lives

Ever notice how kibble has a long shelf life? That’s because there’s nothing in there that is even close to fresh ingredients.

Well how about the vitamins that they add into pet food? Unfortunately most of those vitamins are lost in production.

So then what should we feed our dogs?

Why fresh foods of course!

But that doesn’t mean you have to go ahead and throw away that kibble and never use it again. You can start off with something simple like replacing your dog’s processed treats with fresh fruits and vegetables like strawberries, apples, and cucumbers.

Or you can add toppers to their kibble. Studies show that just taking away 10% of the kibble and replacing it with fresh foods will have wonderful benefits to their health.

Tomorrow we will talk more about carbohydrates and how to determine the amount in your dog’s kibble.
