"Pets, like humans, arevictimsof junk food," he told AFP.
Of the 600furrycorpseshe examined "those fed onprocessedfoods died three years earlier than those fed on food made in the home."
"Dry dog food and cat foodcroquettesare over-heated, which destroys vitamins, trace elements and other basic nutritional elements," he said.
"We don't know the origin of the proteins in the foods," he added. "And there's an excessive amount ofcereal, often genetically modified, and very little vegetables." "We're turning our dogs and cats intoruminants," he said.
"Dogs should not eat cooked or processed food," it adds. "Instead, your pet shouldconsumefoods that are similar to a dog's wild ancestors. This includes bones,fat, meat, and vegetable materials."
"It's only in the last 100 years we have been led to believe that dogs cannot survive without packaged food. We are told it would be harmful if we were to give them thescrapsfrom our own home cooked meals. This is purepoppycock!"
