Last year has proved to be the worst in the history of pet food recalls. Although there is no way to be 100% sure that food is not contaminated or remember, there are red flags to look for when selecting your cat or dog food. Avoid these common ingredients of pet food can greatly improve your chances in buying a healthy, safe food for pets.

Judge the safety or nutritional value of food for pets begins by ignoring the advertising, the price of food for pets, and ignoring the front of the bag. Signs genuine safety of a food for dogs or cats are on the back or side of the bag or can in the “List of ingredients. Regardless of what marketing terms (‘choice’, ‘premium’, and so on) are on the front of the bag or box of food for pets, a pet owner can not determine the quality or safety of these foods is less they look at the ingredients. For dry foods, it may be 90 different ingredients (or more), with canned foods can be no more than 50 different ingredients. But do not panic … you do not understand hundreds of different food ingredients pet! You just need to be aware of a few key ingredients … food ingredients pet that you do not want a dog or cat food (or treats).

“Wheat gluten,” “corn gluten” or “rice gluten”. These three ingredients were the bad boy of feed ingredients in 2007. Tainted glutens were found to the cause of thousands of dogs and cats becoming sick and dying. It is not that glutens themselves are toxic to pets – these ingredients have been used in pet foods for years. The problem was the source or manufacturer of gluten – imported from countries with far less quality standards than the United States. (The majority of the gluten used in pet foods in the United States comes from imported sources.) These imported glutens contained added chemicals to cause the formation of crystals in the kidneys of dogs and cats.

Not only is it important to avoid dog food and cat food (and dogs and cats) that contain gluten because of the possibility of dangerous chemicals added, it is important because they bring no real nutritional quality of food. Glutens are used as thickener and as a protein source in feed for pets. Dog Food Adult Maintenance must provide a minimum 18% protein, adult maintenance cat food should provide a minimum 26% protein. If the source of the meat food for pets does not provide enough protein, gluten is often added to increase the protein content of feed. The best diet for your pet from a meat protein feed rather than a protein gluten. Avoid dog foods and cat foods (and treats) that contain “corn gluten”, “wheat gluten” or “gluten soy.

“Through products. By-products have never been to a recall of pet food, but they are definitely ingredients you want to avoid feeding your pet. To give you an understanding of by-products, I would look for this ingredient feed pie – you know, the dessert! How many types of pies you can think of? There are apple pies, clafoutis, chocolate pies, meringue pies, meat pies, pies, pies in math, cow pies (yuck!) – I think you understand my point. Now, imagine if you bought yourself a ravioli dinner prepared at the grocery store and you looked at the ingredients and you see ‘pie’ listed as the first ingredient of your dinner. Hmmm, pie in ravioli – what kind of cake? You do not know if she was the apple pie or mud pie or even cow pie. All you know that your dinner contained ‘pie’. Whereas “cake” might be something apple pie to cow pie – I guess you would not have dumplings for dinner. Same with animal by-products food.

AAFCO (American Association responsible for supervision of animal feed – the body responsible for all manufacturing rules of feed and regulations) defines by-products as “meat by-products is the non-rendered, clean parties, other than meat, derived from slaughtered mammals. It includes, but is not limited to, lungs, spleen, kidney, brain, liver, blood, bone, partially defatted low temperature fatty tissue and stomachs and intestines freed of their contents. It does not include hair, horns, teeth and nails. It must be adapted for use in animal feed. If it bears name descriptive of its kind, it must correspond to that effect. “

So in regard to pet food – a by-product is a catch-all ingredient name. All left over materials from the meat industry of human food are aggregated into a single name of the ingredient – a by-product. Not sure what you are feeding – one batch of feed might be more intestine by-products when the next batch of feed may be more liver or bone by-products. There is no way of knowing what is actually contained in food ingredients pet-product (the manufacturers of feed themselves could not tell you exactly). Avoid dog foods and cat foods (and treats) that contain byproducts of any kind … Chicken by-products, by-products of beef, chicken byproducts meal, meat by-product meal, and so forth.

“Meat meal”, “meat meal and bone meal ‘, or’ Animal Digest ‘. These three ingredients are similar to sub-products. AAFCO defines meat and bone meal as “the product delivered from mammalian tissues, including bone, exclusive of any added blood, hair, hoof, horn, hide trimmings, manure, stomach and rumen contents except in such amounts as may occur unavoidably in good processing practices. “Again, a catch-all ingredient name for the left over parts of animals used for human food. Lack of consistency in what is contained in these ingredients (all three of these definitions for animals Food ingredient company are similar) – no way of knowing what is really in your pet’s diet. Avoid dog foods, food for cats and dogs and cats’ meat contain “meat and bone “or” animal digest “.

“Animal fats. In 2002, the FDA tested many brands of dog food (cat food has not been tested) for the presence of the drug pentobarbital. Many brands of dog food tested positive to contain drugs. Pentobarbital is the drug used to euthanize dogs, cats, cattle and horses.

How the drug that is used to euthanize animals are found in pet food? The answer – euthanized animals are rendered (cooked) and the end ingredients are placed in pet food. It has long been rumored that euthanized dogs and cats (from animal shelters and veterinarian offices) is the main source of pentobarbital in pet food. However, nobody has been able to confirm or deny this rumor to date. FDA / CVM (Center for Veterinary Management) developed testing methods twice to determine the source of cash for drugs. No results have never been determined. Food manufacturers pet categorically deny they use rendered dogs or cats – but no clinical signs have been published to confirm the pentobarbital euthanized cattle and horses in pet food that ‘they claim.

However, the only thing the FDA / CVM has determined through their test is “animal fat” food ingredient pet is the most common ingredient to contain pentobarbital. In other words, if you are breast feeding a dog food or cat (or trafficking) to animal fat “of the ingredient in the ingredient list – you (more than likely) feeding your pet euthanized animals . Not all batches of feed tested that contained “animal fat” the principle has proved to contain pentobarbital – but why would any pet owner to take this opportunity? Avoid dog foods, food for cats and dogs and cats that contain “animal fat” principle.

‘BHA’, ‘BHT’, ‘TBHQ “and” ethoxyquin. These ingredients pet food are chemical preservatives and you may have to look through the list of ingredients together to find them. It is worth looking at because there is much clinical evidence to associate all four of these chemical preservatives with cancer and tumors (simply do a Google search on any of these chemicals). All four of these chemical preservatives are rarely used to keep human food and if so, are used in quantities far less than what is allowed in food for pets. Avoid any dog ??food, cat food or dog and cat treatment that contains’ BHA ‘,’ BHT ‘,’ TBHQ “and” Ethoxyquin on the label.

“Corn”, “wheat”, “Soy.” Although there is no scientific evidence showing that these ingredients are dangerous for animals – they are potentially hazardous ingredients associated with recalls in the past (1995, 1999 and 2005). These grains are exposed to a deadly mold (aflatoxin). It is suggested (by AAFCO) that all food grains pet manufacturers test for mold, but remember that the past have proven – not always the case. I do not think these ingredients are as risky as others mentioned above, but they are the ingredients I avoid for my own pets.

There is more to selecting a real animal healthy food for your dog or cat to avoid the ingredients mentioned above. This is just the beginning – based on the history of pet food, the AAFCO ingredient definitions, science and opinion of many experts in food for pets including myself. There are many quality pet foods available that do not use the above ingredients that add health promoting ingredients of their food and treats. Continue to learn as much as you can about what you feed your pet and always read the labels!

About 25 years ago I began formulating pet foods at a time when the entire food industry pet seemed quagmire and focused on things such as protein and fat without any regard for real ingredients. Since boot leather and soap could make a pet food with the “ideal” proportions, it was clear that the percentages of analysis does not end the story of the value of feed. I was convinced then, as I am now, a food may be no better than the ingredients of which it consists. Since this idea was an ingredient in the food industry for companion animals, he took a commercial life that distorts and perverts the meaning of the underlying philosophy of food quality and proper feeding practices. Is reducible to health, the ingredients of a commercial product or not? As contradictory as it may seem that I have said, no it is not. Here’s why.

AAFCO Approval
The official publication of the American Association of Food Control Officials (AAFCO) provides a wide latitude for ingredients that can be used in foodstuffs of animal origin. As I noted in my book, The Truth about pet food, approved ingredients may include *:
Dehydrated garbage
unseasoned products processed from animal waste
replacement of forage polyethylene (plastic)
hydrolyzed poultry feathers
Hair hydrolysis
flours hydrolysis
hatchery byproduct
reservoirs of meat
peanut hulls
ground almond shells
(* Association of American Feed Control Officials, Official Publication 1998)

Simultaneously, the same regulatory body banned the use of many proven benefits of natural ingredients that can be found readily available for human consumption such as bee pollen, glucosamine, L-carnitine, spirulina and many other nutraceuticals. It would be easy to conclude that reason does not rule when it comes to what may or may not officially be used in foods for pets.

From the perspective of regulators, they operate from the simplistic idea that the nutritional value of food has to do with percentages, and there is no particular merit to a particular ingredient. They deny the tens of thousands of items of scientific research showing that the type of ingredient and its quality can make all the difference in health. They are also silent about the harmful effects of food processing and the impact of weather, light, heat, oxygen and packaging on nutritional status and health value.

Thus, the regulators are certainly not the place to go to determine how to feed pets to health. To their thinking, as a packaged food reaches a certain percentage, regardless of the ingredients, the manufacturer may ask the food is 100% complete. Pet owners, then making such foods with confidence guaranteed food for every meal all the time thinking they are doing the right thing for their pet. This nutritionally old school is a common practice in hospitals where man and dieticians official power hungry and sick patients metabolically a rate of jello, instant potatoes, powdered eggs, white flour buns and margarine because their cards say these plans contain the exact percentages of certain nutrients. Hospitals are a good place to go if you want to get sick!

The 100% complete Myth
Consumers are increasingly attentive to the value of natural foods. Everyone knows intuitively that the more power is real, fresh food, healthy, the better the chances that good health could result. Unfortunately, people do not apply this same common sense to feed pets. Instead they buy “100% complete” processed foods, maybe even going the extra mile and selecting “super premium” or “natural” brands, thinking they are doing the best we can do . They surrender their minds to a marketing ploy (100% completeness) and do for their pets that they would never do for themselves or their families – eating the same product packaged with every meal, day after day . No processed foods may be “100% complete” because there is not a person on the planet that has 100% knowledge of nutrition. The request is absurd on its face. Understanding this simple principle is more important any formulation of pet foods whatever the merits of its ingredients. Everything that follows will begin with this premise, ie, no food should be fed exclusively on a continuous basis, no matter what claims of completeness or ingredient quality.

Genetics is the Key
Pets need food, they are biologically adapted to. It is a matter of context. Like a fish needs water to be in good health, a pet needs its middle natural food to be healthy. All creatures must remain faithful to their conception. What could be more obvious or simple? For a carnivore good genetic match is a prey, carrion and accessories fresh plant material, and even fur and feathers, and the occasional surprise of unmentionables found in decaying matter. It’s not a pretty picture suggests that “FiFi” with his bow and pink nail polish would stoop to such a price, but it is precisely the food that is designed to eat. Since this design, pairing in this model (minus the most disgusting and unnecessary) is also the key to its health.

Disease Price
We may prefer to feed a packaged, sterile, steam cleaned, dried, piece of flour cleverly shaped pork chop, but do not be fooled, this is not the food of an animal is designed for …. regardless of claims about ingredients on the label that makes you think it costs five-star restaurant. Pets can tolerate food for an hour, but in nature to end calls into account. The price of health is lost in the form of susceptibility to infections, dental disease, premature aging, obesity, heart disease and organs, diabetes, cancer, arthritis and other treatments cruel and painful chronic degenerative diseases. Because our pets are not in the rigors of nature where they would quickly succumb to such conditions and at the end of their misery, they languish in our homes protected under veterinary care that usually heal, but treats only the symptoms and prolongs the suffering. This pain starts with how we feed our pets, not the ingredients in a pet supposed to make up to 100% food.

The Perfect Food
What is the solution? It is simple and something that I preached for 25 years. animals return to their roots of the environment. They need – a day – an interesting activity, fresh air, clean water, frolicking in nature, much love and food as close to the form they would find in nature as possible . Fresh, whole foods worthy of a carnivorous and fed in variety are as good as it can get. Nothing less than this is a compromise. The least compromise if health is the goal. (Same principle applies to you and your family.) For a packaged food as close to this goal requires the right starting philosophy of food (described above) and the expertise to design and the manufacture of such foods.

Enter The Profiteers
The elements of these principles (often distorted or misunderstood) were taken by an endless line of pet food entrepreneurs. The low-fat craze resulted in low fat foods for pets. The craze has led to high fiber foods high fiber pet. The “no corn, wheat or soy” craze has resulted in no corn, wheat and soybean feed. The omega-3 “craze has led to food for pets with fish oil. The” variety “craze led to pet food supposedly offers a variety.” Four food groups ” enthusiasm has led to the four grouped in a package. The “raw” craze has resulted in frozen raw pet foods. The list is endless competition for dollars and the animal owner is fever pitch.

One can only feel sympathy for an owner concerned for pets that walk along the wide range of options to feed into the aisles of pet food. Unfortunately, armed only with sound clips and traditions they have heard from a friend, breeder, vet or on a commercial basis, they make choices that not only does not serve the health of their pet, but can directly contribute to impaired immunity and disease.

The first thing consumers should keep in mind is the ideal diet for pets as described above. No packaged product, regardless of its wild claims never going to equal that. The best thing is to prepare fresh meals at home. (Contact Wysong recipes and instructions.) If it is not always possible, so that the products should be selected which are as close to perfect as possible. (More suggestions below.)

Raw Frozen Pet Food Dangers
At first glance, given the perfect eating pattern I just described – first, natural, all – the best food may seem like an early frost feed now claiming to capture the “raw” craze. I’m sorry to say that some of these providers even use my books and literature to convince pet owners that their products are frozen on the right track. They take pieces of good information and distort it into something that is missing at about the point and misleads consumers. In addition, these frozen blends exotic ingredients of origin, manufacture unknown and freezing conditions are certainly not economical, nor the best choice. They may, because of water content and the raw, be downright dangerous.

[The Case Against Raw Frozen Pet Foods]
http://www.wysong.net/PDFs/caserawfrozen.pdf

Natural Organic
At second glance, then, it may seem that the best thing would be one of many “natural” “organic” and “man of quality” brand dried or canned, which are now flooding the market. Between these and frozen food, ingredient labels are starting to look downright ridiculous. For example, these labels are typical of certain:
Every manner of “mashed” vegetable
Organic beef, rabbit, chicken, turkey, goat, lamb, duck, pork
Organic eggs
Organic honey
Organic papaya, persimmons, blueberries, oranges, apples, pears
Organic yogurt
Organic alfalfa, millet, quinoa and barley sprouts
Wheat grass
Nettles
Bok Choy
Culture kefir
cod liver oil
Capsicum
Watermelon ….

Everything but the kitchen sink is set so as not to risk losing a customer … and that would be too if a new myth has emerged about the health of the special attributes of the porcelain. I say the list is ridiculous not because these ingredients can not be wonderfully nutritious, but because the consumer does not really know what part of the ingredient is used in what form, how it is protected against the formation of Toxin degradation, and as you can see below, the economic calculation does not make sense. In addition, diet complex mixtures of food products (cereals, meat, vegetables, fruits, dairy products, etc.) at each meal is a digestive stress. Pets need a break from time to time and should have only one meal of meat, a slice of watermelon or whatever suits their fancy, all alone, so their digestive tract can concentrate and they can savor the flavor a real food.

Although the idea of ??organic farming is excellent, the use of the term “organic” to name but marketing is not. Something can be labeled organic, to attract customers, but contain only a small percentage of organic matter (see below). However, it is possible that the organic ingredients may be particularly low nutritional value – “. Organic” chicken heads, feet and feathers can be whatever, even if the food is 100% organic rib first, this is not an argument for the exclusive supply of food to pets.

Man Grade
Then there are the claims about “USDA approved” ingredients “of human quality” ingredients and ingredients purchased right out of the meat counter at the grocery store. Again, at first sight – and the superficiality is what marketers like to be treated – it may seem that these foods have the advantage over others. But these labels to create a perception of quality. People do not consider pet food are designed for the wild – all in the first prey and carrion -. “USDA approved” year of the man ‘or’ Cause something is not “human quality” does not mean it is not healthy or nutritious. For example, the viscera of chicken is no “human quality” but is more nutritional value of a clean white chicken breast. Americans think chicken feet would not fit for human consumption, but many countries in the Far East enjoy them. On the other hand, “human quality” steaks of beef fed to pets could cause severe nutritional imbalances and disease if fed exclusively. Pet foods that create the perception of surface quality (USDA, quality of man, etc.) with the intent to obtain pet owners to feed a particular food is not only what health about.

There are also concerns most important food resources of the Earth decreases and the swelling population. If “human quality” food products are taken from the mouths of humans, animals fed all of the excellent nutritional no “human quality” ingredients put in the trash?

Think about the human aspect of the conversion of all food for pets “human quality”. Millions of tons of feed are produced annually. If cows, pigs, sheep, fish, chickens and other intelligent creatures being raised and killed for these foods? Or does it perfectly good and nutritious by-product of meat processing human use rather than waste? Why attentive and sensitive pet owners and producers want to feed other creatures – which are themselves likely to be pets -? Needlessly bred in factory farms and slaughtered in other sources of meat are available

Pet Health Nutrition is serious Science
Animal nutrition is not about marketing and who can make the most money quickly. Unfortunately, a tycoon food pet cadet in the street can go to any number of private label manufacturers and made a new mark. These manufacturers have investment options that can be slightly modified to fit the current market trend. Voila! A new brand pet food is wonder created.

Pet foods are nutrition for pets, and nutrition is a serious health problem. There is an implicit ethics by going to market with products that can impact on health seriously. But ethics is largely absent in the food industry for companion animals. From the application of 100% and all brands craze that led to glut the shelves, health is not served. No one but our organization is to teach the principles of which I speak. Instead, companies run by people with no real technique, food processing, nutrition, health or skills are put to the public as a serious health … because that is what the public wants and what sells. No matter if the producers really understand or can implement sound principles. The facade and selling the game sells ingredients are important, certainly, but no less important than the expertise and principles of the producer is to choose, prepare, store, process and packaging. Consumers pay a lot of trust any processed nuggets are what consumers are led to believe they are. More slippage can occur between the cup and the lip. There are many layers that can occur between the cut of trade receivables and what ends up in the mouth of the bowl food for pets.

Consumer Blame
The consumer is not without guilt in this unfortunate – regular supply of feed processed – an approach to food for pets. They want everything to be easy and inexpensive. They do not want to learn or having to spend too much effort, and they want something simple to decisions on the basis of gender, “corn, wheat and soy are bad,” or “approved USDA, “or” human grade “or” organic is good. “They want something for nothing and think they can get it in food for pets. People want food of choice meats, fresh organic and all wrapped in a tidy package easy to open, easy to pay, I hope for 50 cents a pound. They can even pay $ 1 or slightly more if the producer can not convince them about how spectacular their product is or how many cancers their pet will get if they choose another brand.

Make The Math
Now when I go to the grocery store or health food store and find these ingredients in raw, unprocessed, fresh package, I do not see $ 1 a pound, much less than 50 cents. Some of the organic meats are more than $ 15 a pound! Something’s arrest. But people are just not put the two together. How does a producer to buy these expensive ingredients (as they lead the public to believe they do) carry them to their “man of quality” factory, grinding, extruding, retort, frozen, pack, ship, advertise and to pay vendors and heavy margins of distributors, dealers and retailers and then sell them at retail for less than the cost of starting materials naked? They can not. So, obviously, manufactured feed making Such claims are misleading (to put it nicely). They may have the filet mignon and caviar organic foods, but it must be a consequence sprinkle at best. Consumers should do the math and be realistic in their expectations.

Are byproducts of Evil?
In the transformation of human food there are thousands of tons of by-products that can not easily be sold to humans. Does that make it useless or even less? N These by-products could include trimmings, guts, organs, bone, cartilage and anything else that humans do not desire. If these nutrients well be buried in a landfill? As I mentioned above, while the Earth’s resources continue to decline and people are dying of hunger in the world, should we feed our pets than “human quality” of food and leaving perfectly edible – and sometimes even more nutritious – by-products get lost? How conscionable or justifiable to the consumer or producer?

Road Kill and euthanized Pets
This shift from “human grade” food for pets is partly due to a variety of myths that have got a lot stronger than the legs they deserve. Lore has spread on the market that animals euthanized road deaths and are used in foods for pets. I’ve never seen evidence of this assertion outrageous and after twenty years of surveying suppliers of ingredients, I never found a supplier of such. However, myths fantastic easy life and fantasy, the more they are more life they have. This is how intellectual sloth and what lies at the root of so much misery. Sloppy shallow thinking is what leads to racism, sexism, religious persecution and wars. People would like the world is sharply divided into true-false, good-evil, black and white. Marketers capitalize on this by trying to create clear distinctions for consumers to easily capture: grade of man = good / all others = evil = right organic / all others = bad, white rice = / = corn and buckwheat. These distinctions are simplistic and naive quick and simple for advertisers and salespeople use to influence public opinion. But no backing and using common sense would have ever thought that something as complex as health could never come to what is or is not processed in a food bag. Reality is not black or white, it is in shades of gray. Grisaille requires some knowledge, trial and discernment before making choices. It’s a little more work but what we all need to do if the world should never be a better place and people and pet health are improve.

Summaries, meals and other Boogeymen
Many producers try to sell their products by claiming they do not contain “digests” or “meal”. The idea is that these ingredients are bad and consumers should stay away from all products that contain them. A summary is a product created when enzymes break down food. After eating a meal and is subjected to acids and enzymes in the digestive tract, it becomes a “digest”. Fermented (digested) foods containing soy, dairy products and vegetables are among the most nutritious of all foods. Some “primitive” peoples bury food in the ground to rot and ferment and then find out later to eat with great flavor and nutrition benefits. Scavengers survive and survive very well on the fermentation, decomposition and digestion of food. Meat, organs and the fillings can also be digested in tanks in creating both liquid and dry forms of commercial digested food for pets. Be predigested, they are highly concentrated and the nutritionally effective. If we’re listening to the taste buds of pets to vote in favor of the digest since they are very palatable.

A “meal” is a food product that has been shredded, mixed and dried. Meals are often used in pet foods because they are stable, easily transported, stored and handled. Dried food for pets are themselves on the ground, dried and mixed meals. So that’s an interesting dilemma for those who are promoting their products as not having a meal. Regarding ingredients pet food to go, meals and digests may have their merits. There are degrees of quality because there are any other ingredient. There may be better options such as using whole fresh ingredients, but focusing on the search for a product or no digested meals and food is not the only key to health. Given the sufficient dose, anything can be toxic and dangerous, even water and oxygen. A healthy diet is a mixture of variety, form, preparation, quality, balance … and reason, not fear mongering or sensationalism.

4D
Concern is dead, dying, shot down (off) or sick (4D) animals used in food for pets. Besides the fact that this is simply not “sound” like healthy foods, it is feared that these animals may contain drugs or pathogens transmissible (although this may be true of “human quality” ingredients as well). My point here is not to defend meat unhealthy or dangerous, but to give an idea. In the course of learning in this paper, almost all angles of marketing used by food manufacturers pet is more sensational than it is the substance. What is a carnivore eats in the wild? Is diet the strongest, toughest, quickest, healthiest prey and more elusive? Of course not. They are looking for and feed mainly on dead, dying, diseased and down – prey 4D.’s exactly what humans are alone in nature, given the survival try this. Also, think about it, one of the largest markets for meat 4D is racing greyhounds. Not only 4D fed meat, they are fed raw. kennels do make their living on athletic performance their animals eat the foods that their superstars ill or do not create results? These homeowners can buy commercial concoctions containing no meat 4D at the same price or less, but they do not. There’s a Reason.

If a cow breaks a leg in the area and has failed, it must be killed and transported to a landfill? What is a chicken breast that was bruised on the processing line? Should they all be taken to a landfill, because they might be called “4D”, “byproducts” or “non-human grade?” What is ethics in the discharge of a creature that, in essence, sacrificed his life for food? This is not the way nature does. Nothing wasted.

But the supposed wickedness “4D” is fodder marketing and soap boxes for some who need a cause or a conspiracy to promote. People do not like the sound of “4D”, “byproducts” or “non-human note.” The producers know this and play it. So begins the race to see who can put on the market first with “USDA approved” and “man of quality” food for pets. If it has something to do with health is not important . Perception and propaganda create profits.

(To put this fear mongering into perspective, consider that over 500,000 people [proportional number of animals], the equivalent of more than five per day of our larger vessels packed jet, die each year because of medical [Modern doctors, medicines, hospitals]. Yet we hear more fear and agitation on food ingredients boogeyman that rarely, if ever, take a life. You figure.
[Why modern medicine is the greatest threat to life]
http://www.wysong.net/health/hl_884.shtml

Again, none of this is intended to diminish the need for healthy and nutritious ingredients for animals or humans. But the buzzwords currently overused – the “human quality”, “4D”, “byproducts”, “USDA approved” and others – do not provide appropriate criteria for decision making and only mislead mislead the consumer into thinking about health and nutrition are just words on a package away.
