There is undoubtedly a decline in pet health. But modern science shows that by changing even 1/5 of the bowl to real food, you can significantly decrease the markers for disease. So, why is kibble so behind the times?
We Follow The Science
Study after study shows that whole food nutrition improves outcomes for our animals.
– Case studies indicate that a ketogenic diet improved cancer patients’ prognosis.
– Research suggests that a higher protein diet may improve immune metabolic health and satiety in overweight dogs.
Scientific evidence also supports nutraceuticals and synthetics when appropriate.
– Glucosamine protects the bladder wall
– Chitosan is a natural phosphorus binder
And Use It To Make Breakthroughs
We’ve created the first ever therapeutic, freeze-dried whole food diets for sick pets.
The recipes were formulated and reviewed by veterinarians, Independent Veterinary Specialists, and Independent Nutrition Consultants.
Above that, each diet went through complete, comprehensive 3rd party testing. Several rounds of AAFCO Nutrient Profile testing ensured that both macro and micronutrient levels are tending to your pet’s specific nutritional needs.
Proof By The Numbers
A look at the Nutritional Analyses for Medicus and the leading science diets on the market, and the numbers are comparable, if not better, which means that you can provide therapeutic nutrition with whole food without using meat meals, cellulose, or a lengthy list of synthetics.
*Note – Low phosphorus to limit the nutrients the kidney has to process, with moderate levels of highly digestible, quality meat proteins to nourish the body.
*Note – High-quality novel proteins and high levels of Omega 3 fatty acids, with an Omega 6:3 ratio of 0.55:1.
*Note – Low fat, with easily digestible single carbohydrate source and high-quality animal based protein.
*Note – High fiber with highly digestible carbohydrates and clean, high-quality meat proteins.
*Note – High protein from meat-based proteins, low carbohydrate, and high levels of Omega 3 fatty acids.
*Note – Low phosphorus to limit the nutrients the kidney has to process, with moderate levels of highly digestible, quality meat proteins to nourish the body.
*Note – Reduced levels of calcium and phosphorus, which make up struvite crystals.
*Note – High protein from meat-based proteins and low carbohydrate for metabolic health.
