The 5 benefits of feeding your dog/cat natural fresh food and avoiding industrial foods?

Updated: Jun 13, 2023

As pet owners, we all want to provide the best care for our furry companions. One of the most important aspects of pet care is their diet. Feeding your pet, fresh, high-quality food is essential to their overall health and well-being. In this blog post, we'll explore the benefits of high-quality food compared to industrial food.

Studies have shown that fresh food is more nutritious compared to processed food, which often contains low-quality ingredients, additives and is heavily processed.


The Journal of Nutritional Science showed in one study that fresh food contained more essential nutrients such as vitamins and minerals compared to processed food. Additionally, fresh food is easier for pets to digest compared to processed food, which often contains fillers such as corn and wheat which can be difficult to digest.


Another study published in the Journal of Animal Science showed that fresh food is associated with better nutrient absorption compared to processed food. Feeding your pet fresh food can therefore help reduce the risk of diseases associated with the lack of nutrients which can result from consuming processed food.


Another study published in the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association found that dogs and cats which were fed a fresh food diet had a lower risk of developing urinary tract diseases compared to those fed a processed food diet.


Here are some of the reasons why feeding your pet fresh, high-quality food is better than industrial food:


  1. Better nutrition: Industrial pet food often contains low-quality ingredients that are less nutritious than fresh food. Fresh food contains essential nutrients that are often lost during the processing of industrial pet food (cooked at high temperatures of +180C).

  2. Improved digestion: Industrial pet food often contains fillers, such as corn and wheat, that can be difficult for pets to digest.

  3. Healthier skin and coat: A diet of fresh food can improve the condition of your pet's skin and coat compared to industrial pet food. The high-quality ingredients can help reduce inflammation and promote a healthy and shiny coat for your furry friend.

  4. Reduced risk of disease: Industrial pet food often contains preservatives and additives that can be harmful to your pet's health in the long run. By feeding your pet fresh food, you are reducing their risk of developing diseases associated with consuming unhealthy and processed pet food.

  5. Better weight management: Industrial pet food is often 4 to 8 times more caloric than fresh food and that can contribute to weight gain and obesity in pets.


Overall, feeding your pet fresh food is a much better option for their health and well-being compared to feeding them processed food.
