I am always saying this, but people refuse to hear.

I’m editing this because it appears that some people are correlating feeding a raw or cooked diet to having a dog with GI issues. This is a post (not an article regarding GI issues) the other statement regarding pasta and rice not having any nutritional value (stop confusing the statement “can they eat it vs should they eat it”).

I’m not saying I’ll have a visceral reaction to a thread of people regurgitating “feed rice and chicken” …. Ok yes I absolutely will! Please for all that is good. Stop! Let’s talk about why?

🐸 Rice is a grain

☕️ Both rice and pasta have no nutritional value for pets

🐸 Rice and Pasta are naturally inflammatory on the joints and GI

☕️ Dogs and cats bodies do not digest rice and pasta well and it takes a lot of work for the body to break down, and ends up converting it into sugar. (Sugar feeds yeast and cancers)

🐸 White rice has a high glycemic index and therefore it will cause a rapid spike in blood glucose levels ( imagine doing this for puppies who can’t regulate their blood sugars readily yet or sicker canines)

☕️ Rice is too starchy, and will only cause more inflammation in your pets GI tract.

🐸 Rice absorbs moisture and may cause blockages.

☕️ Rice and pasta should NEVER be recommended to pets that suffer with food allergies. Yeast thrives on sugar. The rice and pasta will trigger an allergic reaction that can alter the natural fora and allow an unnatural growth of yeast causing severe itching,hotspots, ear infections and a foul odor.

But Bronwyn why do our vets tell us this and why does it work? Vets suggest this bc it’s a quick and easy fix. Rice contains a carbohydrate that slows down digestion and can also absorb water in a way similar to a sponge. Methamphetamines work too, that doesn’t mean we should all run out and take them! You have healthier better options!
