Always consult your physician before beginning any new diet, exercise,
5
00:00:13.039 --> 00:00:30.039
or treatment program. And then now it's time for Pet
6
00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:32.920
Health Cafe where your Pet has a Voice.
7
00:00:33.119 --> 00:00:43.759
And here's your host, Bill the Pet Health Guru. Welcome
8
00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:45.399
to the Pet Health Cafe, the show where your Pet
9
00:00:45.399 --> 00:00:48.280
has a Voice. This is Bill the Pet Health Guru.
10
00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:50.880
I'm going to be starting to show all by myself
11
00:00:50.920 --> 00:00:54.439
and I will be joined with a special guest a
12
00:00:54.479 --> 00:00:58.799
little bit later in the show. But tonight, for tonight's show,
13
00:00:59.200 --> 00:01:04.159
we've got a good topic, something that might enlighten all
14
00:01:04.200 --> 00:01:07.480
those pet owners and actually the pet parents as well,
15
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:12.079
on novel foods and the true values of foods and
16
00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:14.799
things of that nature, which is very very important when
17
00:01:14.840 --> 00:01:20.439
we look at the overall balance of the body. Before
18
00:01:20.480 --> 00:01:23.040
we get started, of course, as always, I would love
19
00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:25.200
for you to share this with as many people as
20
00:01:25.200 --> 00:01:29.680
you can like it, if you're watching on YouTube or
21
00:01:29.719 --> 00:01:32.920
Facebook or Spotify or any of the other social media
22
00:01:32.959 --> 00:01:37.760
program platforms. That's very very important for our algorithms. Go
23
00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:41.319
ahead and share it, like I said, and subscribe so
24
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.959
you don't miss a single episode of it. The chat
25
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:48.560
room will be open. It is open actually, so if
26
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:54.079
you've got any questions, concerns, comments, We're always glad to
27
00:01:54.120 --> 00:01:56.480
see them and try to address them as much as
28
00:01:56.480 --> 00:02:01.920
we can on the show. Been an interesting week as
29
00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:04.799
far as clients are concerned and the questions that come
30
00:02:04.879 --> 00:02:07.079
up with, which is why we end up doing some
31
00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.960
of the topics we do. When I'm talking about novel
32
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:16.039
foods and how it actually fits in with the overall
33
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:21.199
health of our animals and ourselves, it's kind of interesting
34
00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:25.000
because first off, first and foremost, I talk a lot
35
00:02:25.039 --> 00:02:29.439
about the nature of food itself. First off, of course,
36
00:02:30.319 --> 00:02:34.120
we start out with a species appropriate and specific diet,
37
00:02:34.840 --> 00:02:38.000
which means this is what this animal including humans should
38
00:02:38.000 --> 00:02:40.439
be eating in the wilder would be eating in the
39
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:45.280
wild based on the scientific evidence of the digestive tract
40
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:49.719
and what we get digest most easily and we get
41
00:02:49.719 --> 00:02:54.199
the most nutrition out of our Dogs and cats, of
42
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:59.599
course are carnivores, and a cat being an obligate carnivore,
43
00:03:00.439 --> 00:03:04.560
and of course dogs being more opportunistic, which means that
44
00:03:04.599 --> 00:03:07.159
they are more of a scavenger. They will eat a
45
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:13.840
lot of things that are considered inappropriate for a carnivore
46
00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:16.599
just to balance out their body. And that's exactly what
47
00:03:16.639 --> 00:03:21.719
they're doing when they do eat inappropriate things, they are
48
00:03:21.840 --> 00:03:27.520
just trying to balance out what's actually lacking in their diet. Now,
49
00:03:28.879 --> 00:03:34.759
when we look at food like itself, we are often
50
00:03:34.800 --> 00:03:39.680
told by health professional nutrition as dietitians, that's something that
51
00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:42.000
you know, we're going to feed you this food because
52
00:03:42.039 --> 00:03:52.919
it is rich in whatever, iron, magnesium, protein, carbohydrate. And
53
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.759
we're focusing at that point in time on a very
54
00:03:56.960 --> 00:04:03.080
microscale of trying to get certain elements of nutrition into
55
00:04:03.120 --> 00:04:10.599
the body problems as food is much more complex. You know,
56
00:04:12.000 --> 00:04:14.120
one of them that we use, of course a lot,
57
00:04:14.280 --> 00:04:18.759
in our canines and our feelines is liver, and of
58
00:04:18.839 --> 00:04:21.759
course we hear this on the human side too, very
59
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:24.959
very rich in iron. So therefore, if you're a knemake
60
00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:28.000
of your animals and makes, we need to get iron
61
00:04:28.079 --> 00:04:35.800
into the body. But liver isn't just iron. Liver contains
62
00:04:35.839 --> 00:04:40.639
a whole plus or of other elements in it that
63
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:44.480
are equally important, and if they weren't there, you would
64
00:04:44.680 --> 00:04:50.040
not be able to utilize the iron Thatt's in that liver,
65
00:04:51.079 --> 00:04:54.759
you know, things like copper, things like B vitamins in liver.
66
00:04:56.040 --> 00:04:58.759
I use liver primarily for the B vitamins because it
67
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:01.720
is a whole complex. But they are water soluble, and
68
00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:08.360
a lot of people object to the should I say,
69
00:05:08.399 --> 00:05:11.800
the mess that can sometimes occur when we give too much,
70
00:05:12.480 --> 00:05:14.839
because it will come out as loose stool, harder to
71
00:05:14.879 --> 00:05:17.560
clean up in the yard or in the house. But
72
00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:22.319
it's essential for the body to get not just that iron,
73
00:05:23.839 --> 00:05:25.720
but all the things they go along with it and
74
00:05:25.839 --> 00:05:28.639
more synergistically. This is one of the reasons why most
75
00:05:28.680 --> 00:05:34.560
supplements don't work, is because they're again trying to isolate
76
00:05:34.600 --> 00:05:36.800
on one thing. But when you throw in one thing,
77
00:05:37.439 --> 00:05:40.959
you throw off the balance of all the other things
78
00:05:40.959 --> 00:05:45.959
that are with it. As I said, they're full of
79
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:52.319
all kinds of different minerals and vitamins and biochemicals. Actually,
80
00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:55.399
and when they're still in a raw form, obviously, when
81
00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:59.639
we cook foods or processed foods add things to it,
82
00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.560
we are fundamentally changing these foods around a lot, and
83
00:06:03.560 --> 00:06:11.839
it can have a devastating impact on our body. An
84
00:06:11.879 --> 00:06:18.759
interesting side note on this, I was watching a hun
85
00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:23.920
a with a researcher this morning and talking about obesity,
86
00:06:24.040 --> 00:06:27.519
talking about diabetes and how all of this has been
87
00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:33.240
linked to sugar in humans. And you know, sugar has
88
00:06:33.279 --> 00:06:40.519
been vilified to a great and blamed for all these problems. However,
89
00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:47.480
this researcher actually did a statistical analysis of sixty five
90
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:59.160
years of data and charting it against what is happening
91
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:03.000
in about body, you know, the disease load, the obesity load,
92
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:09.560
the diabetic load, everything else, comparing with this juice of sugar. Now,
93
00:07:09.560 --> 00:07:13.480
we think that sugar is very, very perverse and all
94
00:07:13.480 --> 00:07:17.319
over in our diet and everything else. But the statistical
95
00:07:17.399 --> 00:07:22.680
evidence showed that in the last sixty five years, the
96
00:07:22.879 --> 00:07:29.879
average uptake of all types of sugars in the human
97
00:07:29.959 --> 00:07:36.639
population over the last sixty five years has remained almost constant.
98
00:07:37.040 --> 00:07:41.000
It has not increased substantially. The types of sugars that
99
00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:43.759
we eat has changed a little bit, which does cause
100
00:07:43.800 --> 00:07:49.600
some of the fluctuations, but not a whole lot. You know,
101
00:07:49.720 --> 00:07:53.800
we look back in history, our sugars came from more
102
00:07:53.920 --> 00:07:57.800
natural sources, either pure cane sugar of course a lot
103
00:07:58.000 --> 00:08:02.800
a lot more, honey a lot more, or maple syrup,
104
00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:07.319
you know, the pure stuff, and of course a lot
105
00:08:07.399 --> 00:08:12.120
more just out of our fruit and even some of
106
00:08:12.199 --> 00:08:16.600
the vegetables that we would normally eat. An interesting part
107
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:18.959
of this is if you go back fifty one hundred
108
00:08:19.040 --> 00:08:22.519
years ago, whenever there was any kind of a gathering,
109
00:08:24.399 --> 00:08:28.079
you know, a social event of family outing or whatever,
110
00:08:28.879 --> 00:08:33.200
and everybody is bringing something to contribute to the meal.
111
00:08:35.320 --> 00:08:40.120
Everybody came with cakes and cupcakes and pies, all filled
112
00:08:41.559 --> 00:08:47.360
with sugar, and yet our sugar in has not increased,
113
00:08:47.399 --> 00:08:51.799
and it had no bearing on the statistical analysis of
114
00:08:51.840 --> 00:08:59.200
the diabetes or the obesity. However, that same chart showed
115
00:08:59.240 --> 00:09:11.679
that when we started adding refined processed vegetable fats, vegetable shortening,
116
00:09:12.519 --> 00:09:18.360
vegetable oil to our diet, that increase in obesity, that
117
00:09:19.399 --> 00:09:26.519
increase in diabetes followed that same increase in the usage.
118
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:31.559
So it's really not the sugar that was causing the
119
00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:35.159
obesity and coming into these with these foods because we're
120
00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:38.879
looking at novelty foods, but it's part of that processing,
121
00:09:39.000 --> 00:09:43.120
and we use these oils in so much of the
122
00:09:43.159 --> 00:09:50.440
processing of food, including stupid things like you know, one
123
00:09:50.440 --> 00:09:53.320
of those things that they showed in this particular research
124
00:09:53.840 --> 00:09:56.960
was a packet of amends that you would normally get
125
00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:00.519
on a flight on an airplane that was top elementary,
126
00:10:01.200 --> 00:10:04.080
and when they flipped it over, those almonds contained four
127
00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:15.320
four different oil combinations that were added to those almonds.
128
00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:21.399
Why and you wouldn't suspect that it's even there. And
129
00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:24.159
then you're wondering why you can't lose weight, why you're
130
00:10:24.200 --> 00:10:27.399
pre diabetic, why all this stuff is out of whack.
131
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:35.960
And it's the fats. It's the wrong fats. The cooking
132
00:10:36.080 --> 00:10:40.200
and vegetable oil, the use of vegetable oils. So we're
133
00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:44.360
bringing in with what looks like a good healthy item,
134
00:10:44.919 --> 00:10:47.960
especially for those that want to be more vegetarian or vegan,
135
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:52.440
and yet we are creating havoc within the body itself
136
00:10:53.919 --> 00:11:01.080
because you're bringing a lot of different chemical compounds with it, vitamins, minerals,
137
00:11:01.519 --> 00:11:07.799
and toxins. You know, those vegetables in that vegetable oil,
138
00:11:08.000 --> 00:11:11.440
in the corn and in the soy, in the canola. Okay,
139
00:11:11.440 --> 00:11:18.440
they're all fertilized with synthetic fertilizer. They're all sprayed with insecticides, pesticide, mildicides,
140
00:11:19.519 --> 00:11:22.279
and everything else which is now inside the plant and
141
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:26.960
inside the grain itself. It is then harvested using clydefass,
142
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:31.399
which is round up, and when it's in storage, you
143
00:11:31.519 --> 00:11:39.200
take the seeds. Of course, when they're being stored, they
144
00:11:39.240 --> 00:11:42.440
have a propensity to start to break down, to be
145
00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:51.799
invaded by insects and funguses and bacterias while they're in storage.
146
00:11:52.200 --> 00:11:56.879
And these storage bends are periodically And I remember my
147
00:11:56.960 --> 00:11:59.399
father working in a grain mill let flour mill that
148
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:02.840
made special the flowers, and once a month they would
149
00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:07.279
shut down the mill to fum a gate to basically
150
00:12:07.399 --> 00:12:13.159
pump things like arsenic and fodzene and all kinds of
151
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:21.679
other chemicals into this grain to kill those bugs. And
152
00:12:21.720 --> 00:12:23.879
oh yeah, by the way, when they grind the flower
153
00:12:24.000 --> 00:12:30.360
and make the oil, those dead bugs are still in
154
00:12:30.440 --> 00:12:34.200
it and are part of that finished product, whether you
155
00:12:34.360 --> 00:12:39.600
like it or not. Now, when we're going to going
156
00:12:39.639 --> 00:12:44.639
through problems with our pets and our animals and even ourselves,
157
00:12:44.720 --> 00:12:47.960
like I say, and you're going to a health professional,
158
00:12:47.960 --> 00:12:52.679
whether the dietitian, a nutritionist, a doctor, a veterinarian, sometimes
159
00:12:52.679 --> 00:12:55.919
they talk about, you know, when we're looking at gastric problems,
160
00:12:57.600 --> 00:13:02.159
upset tummies, ibeds, rea, vomiting, all that stuff, First off,
161
00:13:02.200 --> 00:13:08.039
diarrhea vomiting is nothing more than housekeeping. It's getting rid
162
00:13:08.080 --> 00:13:11.039
of chemicals and compounds that are already in the body
163
00:13:11.080 --> 00:13:15.360
that the body cannot use. And the degree of the
164
00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:22.279
of the basically the looseness of the stool, the diarrhea,
165
00:13:22.799 --> 00:13:27.639
the mucacy parts of it, that's actual proof of the
166
00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:33.360
toxin itself. However, it just depends on how fast the
167
00:13:33.440 --> 00:13:37.440
body wants to get rid of this, and so that's
168
00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:40.159
why we're going to get varying degrees in vomiting, in diarrhea.
169
00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:42.039
But it's a good thing once it comes out. Is
170
00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:45.240
anybody's ever been sick knows that you always feel better
171
00:13:45.279 --> 00:13:50.039
after you get sick than before. And yet again we,
172
00:13:52.399 --> 00:13:55.159
you know, are told that this is horrible, you're sick,
173
00:13:55.279 --> 00:13:58.720
and basically everything that has prescribed is to plug it up,
174
00:13:59.240 --> 00:14:01.440
keep it within your body. And I don't know about you,
175
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:04.679
but I don't want poisoning kept inside my body. So
176
00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:07.200
when we're looking at these foods, sometimes I'll turn around
177
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:10.279
and look at novel proteins, novel food. So we look
178
00:14:10.360 --> 00:14:14.159
at feeding, especially when it's a carnivore. We'll look at
179
00:14:14.360 --> 00:14:19.600
clean feeding meats that you normally would not find in
180
00:14:19.600 --> 00:14:22.559
that region. So you know, we're going to take them
181
00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:24.919
off the chicken because we seem to have an issue
182
00:14:24.960 --> 00:14:27.120
with the chicken. But it's not the chicken, it's everything
183
00:14:27.120 --> 00:14:29.399
that the chicken has been treated with and fed for
184
00:14:29.440 --> 00:14:33.120
its lifetime. So we're gonna switch them over to pheasants,
185
00:14:33.639 --> 00:14:36.919
which is a much more natural animal. We'll try that
186
00:14:37.039 --> 00:14:40.679
and see if that works better. On the red meat side,
187
00:14:40.720 --> 00:14:44.840
we might go to bison, we might go to venison, elk.
188
00:14:46.440 --> 00:14:49.519
You know, there's diets out there with using kangaroo meat
189
00:14:50.679 --> 00:14:56.320
and other various what we would consider to be game
190
00:14:56.440 --> 00:15:00.440
meats because the theory is, of course that they are
191
00:15:01.799 --> 00:15:08.360
cleaner meats. Well, why is it cleaner because we haven't
192
00:15:08.360 --> 00:15:11.679
manipulated their diet like we do with our cattle and
193
00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:15.759
our sheep, our chickens, and our turkeys and our hogs.
194
00:15:16.559 --> 00:15:19.679
You know, we're making up their diet and then we're
195
00:15:19.720 --> 00:15:24.559
saying that it's not a clean food. But you are
196
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:28.120
what you eat. So these animals are made dirty, if
197
00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:35.799
you will, by feeding the inappropriate things that they should
198
00:15:35.799 --> 00:15:38.559
not be eating. They're not eating these species appropriate diet.
199
00:15:38.559 --> 00:15:42.320
Our food animals are not doing that. A good example
200
00:15:42.399 --> 00:15:46.000
is that when we feed ruminants, which is bison and cattle,
201
00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:51.720
sheep and venison and things of this nature. When we
202
00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:54.519
feed them a natural their diet, the diet that they
203
00:15:54.519 --> 00:16:00.000
would eat in nature, which would be grasses and other florias,
204
00:16:01.279 --> 00:16:05.519
basically small branches of bushes and trees, things of this nature,
205
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:10.039
the body balances itself out and actually heals itself and
206
00:16:10.080 --> 00:16:16.200
makes uh converts the fats in the body into those good,
207
00:16:16.279 --> 00:16:19.360
healthy fats that are bodies that our bodies need you
208
00:16:19.399 --> 00:16:23.799
Omega threes and nine. But when we start feeding them grain,
209
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:27.000
and you know, I mean, I'll condemn even some of
210
00:16:27.000 --> 00:16:29.799
the hunters that are out there that use you know,
211
00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:36.879
uh feeding stations of corn to attract more deer and
212
00:16:36.919 --> 00:16:40.080
that sort of thing, you are fundamentally changing that body
213
00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:42.960
because once they eat that grain, the bodies start to
214
00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:46.919
produce a different type of fat. It causes inflammation in
215
00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:51.919
that body. And now we have a meat product that steak,
216
00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:55.080
that ground meat, whatever it happens to be, that is
217
00:16:55.240 --> 00:17:01.480
much much higher, you know, Omega six. Because the body
218
00:17:01.639 --> 00:17:04.880
is trying to convert something it's not supposed to do
219
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:09.519
in it doesn't do it the right way. And this
220
00:17:09.640 --> 00:17:13.559
is one of the issues that we have and why
221
00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:16.799
it's so important that we eat the cleanest possible foods,
222
00:17:16.839 --> 00:17:20.680
that we feed the cleanest possible foods to our animals.
223
00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:27.799
You know, obviously, you know, in my little sphere of
224
00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:31.799
the universe here, any kind of meat or raw diet
225
00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:35.400
that you would feed your carnivore is going to be
226
00:17:36.519 --> 00:17:43.920
much much better than all the processes, ultra process kibbles
227
00:17:44.680 --> 00:17:50.799
and canned foods and the highly preserved soft moist foods
228
00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:54.039
and refrigerated foods that we see now on the market
229
00:17:54.160 --> 00:17:58.920
and that are going through again, we can look at
230
00:17:59.160 --> 00:18:04.119
that carnivore diet. Basically, in the wild, wolves don't eat
231
00:18:05.839 --> 00:18:10.480
fruits and vegetables and grasses unless they are out of balance,
232
00:18:11.759 --> 00:18:14.559
unless they're the animals that they are eating are out
233
00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:20.839
of balance. So therefore eating clean is very very important,
234
00:18:21.720 --> 00:18:28.359
and it's just one of those fundamental things we have
235
00:18:28.440 --> 00:18:34.960
to kind of work backwards from where we are eating unclean,
236
00:18:37.079 --> 00:18:42.960
improperly raised food animals to produce meat for both ourselves
237
00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:51.440
and for our carnivores. It sounds very simplistic, but when
238
00:18:51.480 --> 00:18:54.000
you walk into the supermarket, when you walk into the
239
00:18:54.000 --> 00:18:57.119
pet shop and you ask about diets and you look
240
00:18:57.160 --> 00:19:01.759
at diets, very little information is available where this stuff
241
00:19:01.880 --> 00:19:05.279
is sourced, where it comes from, how it was raised.
242
00:19:06.359 --> 00:19:08.599
It's one of the things that my sponsor with my
243
00:19:08.680 --> 00:19:14.559
palaeopaed and biocomplete diets does extensively is researched the farms
