The Truth about Ingredients (part 2) Part 2 But what about cat foods? (errrrrrh). Yes, most cat foods are even worse, especially when it is taken into consideration that this species is considered an obligate carnivore. They eat meat. The biggest decision of the free-roaming domestic cat...

Hi Everyone, The article below is something I just put together after a week of discussing this vital (and unsettling) subject matter with clients in the exam room. Their reactions compelled me to put it all in writing. I hope this helps and motivates change. Please give this information to...

Not a fan of EVO "EVO- The Ancestral Diet Meets Modern Nutrition" I "love" that slogan. Now which part...the ancestral or the modern...does the cottage cheese fall into??? Did the ancestors of the modern day dog get cows to lay down and let them suckle them? LOL Which is better...ancestral...

He's thinking! This from Dr. Michael W. Fox: http://tedeboy.tripod.com/drmichaelwfox/id74.html

Part 2 Now, I must ask the reader- Is a little ol' veterinarian from Alabama really the only one who understands all of this stuff or do the research and development departments of the pet and human food giants know most of what I just wrote? Are the people responsible for making the decisions...

Does that question seem like a totally absurd notion? Is it possible that the manufacturers of our pet's food are so out of touch with the animal's nutritional requirements that they make their formulary blunders by accident ? After studying the effects of gluten, dairy, soy, and corn on the...

What to feed, what to feed??? That's a great question...quite involved, but a good question. We should feed the pet as close to a natural diet as possible. "As possible" means 1) As close to what we understand "natural" to be; 2) As close to natural as we can afford; and 3) As close to natural...

The Cons Here is a great article put together by Jeannie Thomason of Animal Talk Naturally and The Whole Dog. This is right on. Although it is contrary to what we have ALL been told at some time in the past (including me), there is no doubt in my mind that early spaying and neutering is not...

Hi Everyone, I am formally inviting all of you to the podcast that I will be doing tomorrow on Animal Talk Naturally. I have been doing a monthly podcast with Kim Bloomer and Jeannie Thomason for over a year now and tomorrow we will be doing one on implications of the pet food recall. We're...

Update Here is a comment I received: They've been reporting that Aminopterin levels of at least 40 ppm were detected in the tainted cat food. According to a relative of mine (who is a chemist in the pharmaceuticals industry), this is a high- and extremely dangerous- quantity of this...

Hi Everyone, I have very mixed feelings here. Of course, I am saddened by the death of the affected pets and the trauma this has caused the owners. BUT, this is the absolute best thing that could happen TO the pet food companies. I could not be more excited about the potential for seeing the...

Evidence Evidence: Here is an easy way for those of you who are interested to find some of highlights of what I have found in the 6.5 years I have been researching this topic: Put- "virus cancer" "breast cancer virus" "celiac disease cancer" "cancer air pollution " "environment...

My reply Here was my reply: I am very sorry to hear about your friend. But why would you take offense? Do you think I am saying that we deserve to die of cancer, especially at an early age? Absolutely not. I am saying that it happens for explainable reasons. I am angered by the fact that we...

One reader's reply Here was one reply- "Are you saying that our lifestyles can dictate whether or not we get cancer? I take offense, and have a good friend who was the healthiest living person I know, ate right, lived right, and died at a young age from cancer. Where's the evidence to your...

Got your attention??? :) :) :) The following is a post that I placed on the Gluten Sensitivity/Celiac Disease forum of BrainTalk Communities and a number of pet forums as well as sent to a number of colleagues in medicine, both human and veterinary...both allopathic and holistic. I hope...

Here is a letter that I just wrote to a well-known colleague. What do you guys think about it? Hey Jean, I would love to talk to you about this some time when you have the time. I'm now a believer that the female (person or dog) is always better off with their ovaries UNLESS they are...
