Additives In Pet Food

Now, what we have is extremely low level food, with contaminants galore. To compensate for
nutrient loss in the manufacturing process, they add some chemically isolated vitamins and minerals
with high tech names such as Pyroxidine hydrochloride, calcium pantothinate, iron carbonate,
potassium chloride and manganous oxide. Now, it should look pretty…so they add a healthy dose of
FD and C Red #40…unbelievable!

With holistic pet care for dogs and cats, etc. we are very concerned about these
chemicals, which include:

Propylene glycol – Normally this is used as a de-icing fluid for airplanes. It is put into pet foods to
maintain moisture and texture. It is added to prevent bacterial growth but also inhibits the growth of friendly bacteria within the intestines. Propylene glycol decreases the amount of moisture in the
digestive tract leading to constipation and cancer.

Ethoxyquin – This was originally designed as a rubber stabilizer and herbicide but before its approval,
it was considered a poison. At the outset, it was to be used as a grain preservative in feed for animals
not expected to live for more than two years before they are slaughtered. It has been reported to
cause liver cancer in dogs and malformations or even death in newborn puppies.

BHT and BHA – This has been very poorly tested. It is reported to cause liver damage,
metabolic stress, fetal abnormalities and serum cholesterol increases. It is added to preserve already
rancid fats in the food. Fats in this form are very difficult to digest and can lead to a host of health problems including diarrhea, gas, bad breath and vomiting.

Artificial Coloring – This doesn’t have to be labeled with any more definition than that. They are all
coal tar derivatives which have been implicated in anything from cancer to birth defects.

Sodium Nitrate – This converts in the body to nitrosamines, which are very carcinogenic.
They are added to retain the red color to make the meat look fresh. Yeah – Right!

Heavy Metal Toxicity – Because meat is high on the food chain, contamination with heavy metals
such as lead and mercury is very much a concern. Spot checks on cat food have revealed lead
levels ranging from .9 ppm to 7.0 ppm and dog food anywhere from 1.0 to 5.6 ppm It should never
be over .5ppm.

Thimerosal is a mercury containing preservative used in vaccines. Mercury is a known neurotoxin.
There is a vast amount of research/discussions going on globally at this point in time relating to
mercury in dental amalgams, vaccinations and the environment in general. Many researchers are
linking mercury to the tremendous increase in autism in children. If you do decide to immunize
your animal, please, for their sake, insist on thimerosal-free vaccinations. They do exist..but they
do not have the same shelf life, so many companies try to sell the vets on the preserved issues for..
you got it..profits!

ALSO Chocolate (dogs); aspirin & aspirin substitutes (cats), Lysol, Pinesol, Phisoderm,
hexachlorophene, Phenol-group Coal & Wood Tar derivatives (cats); all anti-freezes; pesticides;
some flea products; some fertilizers & vegetables; tinsel, ornaments, ribbons, wrappings &
Christmas tree water.
