Healthy Dog Food

Just as 'Premium Dog Food', is a higher quality dog food, so is 'Healthy Dog Food'. The ideas behind 'Healthy Dog Food' are much the same as those behind 'health food stores' for people:

• No artificial preservatives, flavours or colours
• Grains (such as brown rice and barley) are whole grain
• Whole and fresh fruits and vegetables
• Usually fortified with additional vitamins and minerals

The main differences between healthy dog food and ordinary dog food are the avoidance of chemicals, the use of whole and fresh ingredients which have a minimum of processing, and particular attention to added vitamins/minerals (especially those believed to aid in avoiding illness and slowing aging).

The scientific evidence behind Healthy Dog Food is much the same as the scientific evidence behind the products of human health food stores. If you are a supporter of one, then you are likely a supporter of the other.

Even if you are not a supporter of the health food principles, the generally higher quality of ingredients used in healthy dog food make it worth considering.
