i’ve been down the dog food rabbit hole so many times, i’m sick of myself talking about it. obviously i’ve combed this forum and understand that hills, royal canin and purina have research for years (though i am skeptical because who pays for this research? feels a bit fishy). however, this doesn’t answer a question i’ve had about extruded vs. gently baked food. specially, what happens when food is charred during the extrusion process.
we lost my soul dog to cancer two years ago. she was a mixed breed with no health issues and was only 8 when she was diagnosed with hemangiosarcoma. she wasn’t on a grain free diet, but was on limited ingredient foods from various manufacturers (not one of the big three). it was traumatic, and that caused us to go down the rabbit hole of raw food benefits vs. kibble. we’d love to do raw right, but we have a toddler and the time just isn’t there.
so i guess my question is is there research out there for what the extrusion process does to the food and cancer correlations?
edit: while i’m here, another question is about the ratios of protein, fat, carb, water. yes, i’ve been down the ketonaturals worm hole too. are there any foods from the big three that reach keto ratios?
