Let’s look at the toxic dog food ingredients that could be ruining your dog’s health.
1. Ground whole grain corn
This is derived from dent corn, also known as field corn. This GMO corn contains traces of glyphosate, an herbicide linked to cancer. Dent corn may also sit for a year before turning into dog food, developing a deadly aflatoxin, also known to cause cancer.
Dogs are not meant to consume high amounts of grain! This highly refined starch is just hidden sugar that does not have to be listed on the label. The average dog food is about 48% carbohydrate, which can create metabolic issues, a fatty liver, and obesity.
2. Meat and bone meal
This “meal” is typically sourced from dead, dying, diseased, or disabled animals. Euthanized dogs can even be used to create meat and bone meal!
3. Soybean meal
Dogs are not meant to consume soybeans, especially highly processed GMO soy. Soybean meal is processed with chemical solvents like hexane and contains phytonutrients that can affect the thyroid, hormones, and offspring if your dog is pregnant.
4. Animal fat
This sounds healthy, but it is usually combined with highly oxidized seed oils preserved with chemicals such as BHA or BHT—carcinogens banned in Europe.
5. Corn gluten meal
This ethanol byproduct contains a corn protein called zein, which is incomplete and poorly absorbed.
6. Chicken byproduct meal
This ingredient also includes dead, dying, diseased, and disabled animals (4D’s), which may also contain antibiotics.
7. Red 40, Yellow 6, Blue 2
Dangerous dog food additives like food coloring can cause neurological issues and contribute to tumor formation.
8. Animal digest
This is slaughterhouse waste!
9. Wheat middlings
This wheat industry waste product contains ethoxyquin, a carcinogenic ingredient banned in Europe. It can also form acrylamide when cooked, which can trigger cancer and liver problems.
