    Nutrition is Key to Allergies

    Podcast Episode 70: Nutrition is Key to Allergies Allergy Myth:    - Allergies, especially protein allergies, are often overestimated as the cause of skin and coat issues.    - True protein allergies are rare; many problems stem from nutritional deficiencies. Nutritional Deficiencies:    - Lack of quality proteins and fats can lead to dry, flaky skin and inflammation, often mistaken for allergies.   - Opt for foods with specific proteins like chicken, beef, or fish; avoid fillers and by-products.   - Include omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids in the diet. Hydration:    - Adequate water intake is essential for maintaining healthy skin and coat. Dehydration can cause dry skin and a dull coat.

    66 - Transitioning a Cat To New Food

    Toni and Emily invite HPP assistant manager and certified cat lady: Lindsay onto the show to talk all things cats! Lindsay has 7 cats and knows the ins and outs of cat life. She has been through everything from picky eating to raw feeding and introducing a new cat. Toni and Emily talk in depth with Lindsay about how she recommends and handles transitioning cats and kittens to new food. Cats are very sensitive to textures, they even imprint on certain shapes, and textured foods. It can be very challenging to put a cat at any age on a new food!  Toni, Emily, and Lindsay summarize the number of cats Lindsay has, how she acquired so many cats, and what has led her to being such a fan of cats! They enjoy small banter about their experience with cats and the quirky stories about adding to cats to the colony, and Emily’s experience with her cat. They talk about how they started their cats on raw food, and rotating foods since they were kittens, and how it can be challenging to transition an older cat to a new food. Lindsay takes the time to talk with Toni and Emily about tips and tricks for transitioning your cat to a new food. They also expand on the importance and relevance of rotating your cat's proteins and textures. Just like dogs, cats need to be exposed to new proteins and textures to fill nutritional gaps, boost their immune system, and prevent the struggle of picky eating.   Direct any comments or questions to: Info@toniunleashed.com  Visit our websites: www.healthypetproducts.net / www.toniunleashed.com  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healthypetproducts/ https://www.instagram.com/toni.unleashed/  Facebook: Thttps://www.facebook.com/HealthyPetProducts / https://www.facebook.com/ToniUnleashed  Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAMxTEiHqRkpWNakn4OA__A  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healthypetproducts / https://www.tiktok.com/@toni.unleashed  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/HealthyPetProducts/ / https://www.pinterest.com/ToniUnleashed/

    65 - Learning About Synthetics

    In this episode of Toni Unleashed, we explore synthetic vitamins and minerals in pet food with Emily from Raw Dynamic. While these additives help make pet food complete and balanced, they can compete with natural nutrients for absorption. Emily explains that synthetic vitamins lack essential synergistic compounds found in natural ones and can lead to degraded cells and absorption issues. This competition may result in deficiencies or imbalances, affecting your dog's immune function, skin health, and overall well-being. To mitigate this, prioritize natural, whole-food sources in your dog’s diet and choose food made with real meat, fruits, and vegetables. Investing in your dog’s health by reducing synthetic additives can positively impact their longevity and quality of life.   Calls to action Direct any comments or questions to: CustomerService@healthypetproducts.net  Visit our websites: www.healthypetproducts.net / www.toniunleashed.com    Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/healthypetproducts/ https://www.instagram.com/toni.unleashed/  Facebook: Thttps://www.facebook.com/HealthyPetProducts / https://www.facebook.com/ToniUnleashed  Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAMxTEiHqRkpWNakn4OA__A  TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healthypetproducts / https://www.tiktok.com/@toni.unleashed  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.com/HealthyPetProducts/ X: https://twitter.com/HealthyPetPgh
