Things I hear often: “I feed my pets a prescription diet recommended by my vet, this means the food is the best and healthy for my pet” This is not true, I know this after years of research and seeing it in the patients I have helped for the last 40 years. We all have our belief systems. A belief is simply a thought you keep repeating, but it doesn’t make it right or wrong. We derive our beliefs from observing our family, from our teachers, and even from the media if we choose to believe what they are saying. The more I learn about the body’s biology and I study how nature creates sustainable systems, the more my “beliefs” have shifted to help me understand how to create a true “health” program that supports the body's innate intelligence and enables our pets to live the longest healthiest life possible. A 100% balanced nutrient rich grass fed, grass finished species-appropriate diet consisting of meat, fat, bone and organ meat is what our pets should be eating. This should include the highest quality macronutrients combined with the essential micronutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids and fatty acids) This is not as a daunting process as you may think!

We are #superpowering #meat! By properties no other meat has ... Instead of gobbling fatty burgers with zero additional benefits apart from protein, let’s have a sneak peak at one of Mewery’s superpowered ingredients💚. #FIBER is a compound you almost can’t go wrong with. Perhaps because our bodies are programmed to eat mostly fiber-rich stuff. Remember, we all come from gatherers used to eat lots of fruits🍇, vegetables🫛, whole grains🌾, legumes🫘, and nuts🥜. 🌱 It lowers #cholesterol and protects the heart (soluble fiber) 🌱 Improves #digestion by adding bulks into stool preventing #constipation (insoluble fiber) 🌱 Eating fiber makes you feel full and thus #prevents #overeating and #weight problems 🌱 It controls blood sugar absorption and thus #prevents #diabetes (soluble fiber) The human’s #gut #microbiome thrives on fiber-rich food. A happy microbiome is a key to … well almost everything that’s going on in our bodies🏋️♂️ and minds🧘♀️. BUT #Meat 🥩 products typically #do_not_contain_fiber🌱, only protein and fat. Why should cultivated meat be any different? Thanks to our unique co-cultivation processes with #microalgae, Mewery burger patties contain 1/3 RDD (Recommended Daily Dose) of fiber for women and 1/4 RDD for men. That makes a difference between cultivated meat and #Mewery_cultivated_meat.🤸♂️

Should we feed the fish the best ingredients to get healthy food — or just eat what is healthy on its own? Now the fish farming industry seems to be acquiring a taste for ginger, one of my favourite ingredients, especially for winter dishes. Research has shown that ginger in feed can ‘improve growth performance, modulate immunity, and enhance disease resistance’ in farmed fishes due to its ‘anti-stress, antibacterial, antiviral, and antiparasitic’ properties. However, I personally prefer the daily intake of ginger directly in my meal and avoid farmed fish, even the ginger-fed. ——— Study: https://lnkd.in/dqx9f_xK ——— Picture: Ginger Zingiber officinale (credit: ritirene / Wikimedia Commons)
