Pet Foods Recommended by NZYMES
IMPORTANT NOTE: For Dog or Cats with Candida Yeast Problems (itchy skin & ear symptoms), the list of food options is more restricted since feeding incorrect foods can dramatically worsen that condition. Please use the Link Above.
WHY? When trying to solve Yeast Candida issues using the NZYMES Heathy-Skin Program, it is highly important to use foods that will NOT contribute to growth or expansion of the Yeast fungus; hence, food choices are more restricted - to reduce intake of starchy ingredients that quickly convert to sugar and thereby feed the fungus growth.
WHY SHOULD I CHANGE FOODS?
Over 10 years of high-intensity involvement in the pet health industry, including dealing with 10's of thousands of pet health issues, and our close involvement with
Linda Arndt, the pet nutrition specialist, has shown us - that a very high proportion of Pet Health Issues are directly related to the poor quality pet foods found in the larger, volume oriented stores. Such foods do not provide your pet with the sort of nutrition they actually NEED. Most are Corn or Wheat based, and even when they list a meat - such as Chicken - this will not truly be the main ingredient after water is extracted. All Premium quality foods will list some sort of MEAT MEAL as the primary ingredient - meaning the meat has been weighed only after water has been extracted.
NZYMES as no direct relationships with specific pet food manufacturers or suppliers; and, we only recommend foods that are Super-Premium or Holistic. Such foods are manufactured to higher quality standards. This means being 'meat based' as well as more nutritious and better balanced, including a 'vitamins and minerals' package designed to be more thoroughly absorbed by a pet's body. These higher-quality foods will also normally be devoid of by-products as well as dangerous
preservatives and additives. Pet foods of this quality will NOT be found in supermarkets or large chain-stores, including the large corporate Pet stores or Discount chains. Instead, they will be found in local small pet stores within your community. Store-finder links on this page can help you locate such dealers. KNOW WHAT YOUR DOG IS EATING!
