Since 2014, a non-profit organization called KetoPet has saved dozens of dogs from kill shelters. These dogs were placed there due to terminal cancer diagnoses, and were given only weeks to live. Today, more than half the dogs are still enjoying life going for long walks and barking excitedly over the arrival of dinner and many are also now cancer-free.
KETO DIET TRANSFORMS CANINE HEALTH
Inspired by KetoPets work, a group of self-described lifelong nutritional nerds did the research and found that feeding dogs a ketogenic diet often gives them a new lease on life. As pet parents themselves, they set out to find ketogenic food for their own dogs, but came up with nothing. So they decided to create their own under the banner of Visionary Keto Pet Foods. While they wouldnt call the keto diet a cure, they witnessed first-hand nothing less than a transformation for many dogs with cancer, as well as other serious health conditions, while also creating good health in dogs that werent sick.
CARBS ARE OUT; FAT AND PROTEIN ARE IN
A keto diet is high in protein and fat and low in carbohydrates. Unfortunately, much of todays dog food is very high in carbs because theyre cheaper than high quality ingredients.
THE BENEFITS OF A KETO DIET
Pet parents feeding their dogs Visionarys line of foods report softer and shinier coats, rapid relief from allergies, better digestion, and improved skin issues. Poops are more solid and less frequent, and they also report increased energy and endurance, no bloating or gas, and much more. These low-carb diets have additional benefits, such as:
- Lowering your dogs average blood glucose
- Decreasing his insulin response
- Allowing him to use fat as his primary fuel source
- Improving your dogs overall health with their anti-inflammatory qualities.
THE INSIDE SCOOP
Visionarys foods are grain- and gluten-free, and made and sourced in the U.S. The first ingredient in all their foods is 100% real meat. All the companys recipes have been validated as ketogenic, and contain a macronutrient breakdown of roughly 60% to 70% fat, 30% to 40% protein, and less than 1% carbohydrates as a percentage of their total calories.
