Beyond the Bag: Uncovering the Real Cost of Convenience Pet Foods

What if everything you thought you knew about pet food was designed to sell products, not support health? DeDe Murcer Moffett and veterinarian Dr. Judy Jasek pull back the curtain on commercial pet food, revealing shocking truths about what's really in that bag of kibble.

Drawing from 25 years of raw feeding experience, they explain how the starches in corn-based kibble break down into sugars through enzymatic processes—essentially feeding your pet "cakes, cookies, and chemicals." The conversation takes a fascinating turn as they connect the dots between human health statistics and pet health outcomes. When 40% of children now have chronic diseases while consuming 70% processed foods, is it any surprise our pets suffer similar fates on processed diets?

The hosts break down problematic ingredients hiding in commercial pet foods: wood pulp masquerading as fiber, mysterious "animal digest," inflammatory seed oils, and synthetic vitamins that poorly substitute for real nutrition. They explore how environmental toxins compound these issues, with pets absorbing chemicals from treated lawns and parks through their paws.

What makes this episode particularly valuable is how it balances hard truths with practical solutions. Raw feeding doesn't require elaborate preparation—it can be as simple as defrosting some meat or providing appropriate raw meaty bones. Dogs are naturally equipped with teeth designed for tearing meat and crushing bones, able to process raw foods in ways their bodies simply can't with processed alternatives.
