Seriously, these animals are extreme carnivores, yet the big chow companies make grain-based pet food that is very high (over 50%) in carbs. So pet obesity (insulin resistance) is a problem, as well as kidney diseases and cataracts (related to high blood sugar).
I asked my LCHF doctor in Seattle about it and he agreed. He said “I feed my dog only meat”. Tim Noakes says that cats are even more sensitive to carbs than dogs are.
So how are your pets doing if you are feeding them grain-based dry foods vs meat?
