Hi Friend,
How can you not like animals after seeing this picture...
How do you know whether or not your Home Diet is balanced?
In the age of pet food recalls, and concern over the health and quality of commercial food, more pet owners are feeding home diets.
Here are specific nutrients often lacking in home diets:
Inadequate levels of omega 6 fatty acids
Low calcium, and minerals, such as iodine, selenium, copper, and zinc
Inadequate levels of vitamins, such as vitamins E, D, and B12
There are real concerns over specific supplements- some human ones contain far too much Vitamin D, and certain childrens chewable multivitamins contain potentially toxic Vitamin D.
Veterinarians claim the ‘evils’ of feeding these home diets…
Chronic diarrhea
Skin disorders
Anemia
Pancreatitis
Depressed Immune function
Neurologic disorders
What can you do?
1. Ensure that he home diet you feed has these nutrients
Animal Protein
Omega 6 and omega 3 fatty acids
Minerals (calcium, iodine, copper, zinc)
Vitamins - water-soluble ( vitamin B12) and fat-soluble ( vitamins D and E)
2. Feed a varied diet- For example feed the home diet once or twice a week in combination with a ‘balanced’ commercial diet of dry and canned food
3. Supplement- Add in a species specific balanced supplement designed for dogs or cats
My supplements are designed to ensure that your dog or cat’s home diet is complete, and balanced.

P.S. While I was in veterinary practice, I lost track of HOW many times I was told about the ‘evils’ of feeding home diets to pets.
Hmmmmmmmm
Who really benefits from feeding ‘commercial’ diets?
Multinational Pet Food Companies..
They have a LARGE vested interest in YOU feeding their food.
And being ‘scared’ to NOT feed that ‘dangerous’ home diet.
Where in reality, we are likely putting are pets at MORE risk from feeding strict kibble…
Which is leading to epidemic levels of obesity, diabetes, FLUTD, and in my opinion cancer.
Just HOW healthy can it be if it is in a BAG, and lasts for MONTHS?
Equate it to your own diet- your dogs and cats are MUCH the same.
My suggestion..
Feed a Home Diet at least once a week
Ensure that it is balanced with my supplement. Get a 50% OFF trial here:
