For many pet parents (and vets), processed dry food is no longer the norm. To evaluate the true benefits of these types of recipes, we talked to two prominent Southern California veterinarians: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.westernu.edu\/veterinary\/about-us\/message-from-the-dean\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. John Tegzes VMD Dipl. ABVT,<\/a> board-certified in veterinary toxicology, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/dr-oscar-chavez-realtor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Dr. Oscar Chavez, BVetMed MRCVS MBA<\/a>, professor in veterinary clinical nutrition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-medium\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"228\" src=\"https:\/\/osfbl01.justfoodfordogs.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Drs-Feature-Img-300x228.webp\" alt=\"vets\" class=\"wp-image-10843\" srcset=\"https:\/\/justfoodfordogs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Drs-Feature-Img-300x228.webp 300w, https:\/\/justfoodfordogs.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Drs-Feature-Img.webp 330w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-amp-a-with-veterinary-experts-about-fresh-dog-food\">Q &amp; A With Veterinary Experts About Fresh Dog Food<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What\u00a0are\u00a0fresh,\u00a0whole-food\u00a0recipes\u00a0for\u00a0pets?<br><\/strong>Dr. Chavez: A response to inedible, processed, and possibly toxic ingredients that are allowable in \u2013 or make it into \u2013 commercial dry and canned food. They consist of lightly cooked, nutritionally balanced, homemade recipes made using ingredients from the grocery store, the same you eat yourself. Modern companies prepare them too \u2013 like fresh doggie take-out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What is the concern in feeding standard kibble or canned dog food?<br><\/strong>Dr. Tegzes: The primary issue is the use of processed \u2018feed grade\u2019 ingredients. They include meat \u2018byproducts,\u2019 meat and fish \u2018meals,\u2019 potentially <a href=\"https:\/\/justfoodfordogs.com\/blog\/symptoms-of-mycotoxin-poisoning-in-dogs.html\">moldy corn<\/a>, and other low-quality ingredients that were rejected for use in human food. The pet food industry says these ingredients are perfectly fine to feed to our pets; <a href=\"https:\/\/justfoodfordogs.com\/blog\/the-humanization-of-pets-or-the-discovery-of-our-own-humanity.html\">we don\u2019t agree.<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Have there been real life, recent examples of contamination or concern?<br><\/strong>Dr. Tegzes: They occur weekly, recalls are tracked and posted on the FDA website. A recent recall found pentobarbital, a drug used to euthanize animals, in large quantities in cans of food. At least one dog died, and others became ill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How does feeding fresh, whole-food recipes limit these risks?<br><\/strong>Dr. Tegzes: We believe these risks are greatly reduced when you feed your pets food that is made with human edible ingredients: meats and vegetables that are certified by the USDA and approved for human consumption. They are produced with much more stringent rules and regulations than anything made by the <a href=\"https:\/\/justfoodfordogs.com\/blog\/10-years-later-the-pet-food-industry-a-decade-after-the-melamine-recall-of-2007.html\">pet food industry<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Have there been documented benefits to\u00a0fresh whole-food recipes?<br><\/strong>Dr. Chavez: Yes! <a href=\"https:\/\/justfoodfordogs.com\/blog\/5-facts-about-fresh-dog-food.html\">Early research<\/a> that we have been a part of showed a beneficial effect on levels of antibodies in the blood of animals that transitioned to fresh whole foods over a year. Past research has shown that dogs that ate fresh fruits and veggies at least three times a week had a reduced risk of bladder cancer. Another study showed that aged beagles fed fortified diets experienced better cognition scores.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-diy-dog-food\">DIY Dog Food<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>What advice do you have for people that choose to cook at home?<br><\/strong>Dr. Chavez: It\u2019s important that they get the nutrition right \u2013 which means working with a <a href=\"https:\/\/justfoodfordogs.com\/blog\/instant-pot-fish-dog-food-recipe.html\">reputable recipe<\/a>. Ideally designed by a veterinarian focused in nutrition. They will need to supplement the recipe with a vitamin and mineral nutrient blend to ensure proper levels of calcium, phosphorus, iron, vitamin D, and about 40 or so other essential nutrients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Are there commercial options for people that would like to feed fresh whole-food but\u00a0don\u2019t want to cook?<br><\/strong>Dr. Chavez: Yes! This is probably the most exciting part of veterinary nutrition today \u2013 the evolution of how we feed our pets. Various companies have started up, but only some seem to know what they are doing. And few are doing it right. We recommend choosing a company that has vets on staff, has prescription recipe options, and trained consultants you can talk to (as opposed to a recording or operator). JustFoodForDogs is the first such company to exist. They invented fresh whole-food and they\u2019ve been in business the longest. They have live kitchens you can visit and watch your food being made.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two prominent Southern California veterinarians evaluate the benefits of feeding fresh whole foods to pets.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":10844,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","_jffd_show_updated":"1","footnotes":"","_ppma_block_editor_authors":""},"categories":[70],"tags":[],"ppma_author":[280],"class_list":["post-10842","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-nutrition"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v28.8 (Yoast SEO v28.8) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Modern Topics in Nutrition: An Interview with the Experts | JustFoodforDogs Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"An interview with Dr. John Tegzes VMD Dipl.
