Description

Obesity is the most common preventable disease in dogs in North America. The scientific evidence all points to one thing...when dogs are fed more carbs, they gain more weight.  
Peer-reviewed studies have linked carbohydrate consumption to all manner of health problems in dogs, including inflammation, obesity, diabetes, elevated insulin and blood sugar level, cancers, and even overall mortality.
Today's dog kibble, even the premium brands, has at least 40% carbs yet dogs ate zero carbs for 99% of their evolutionary heritage. 
So, let's dive into all the facts behind why and how carbs contribute to the modern epidemic of dog obesity!
