Pet Food Danger Gauge 66% - Dangerous and Toxic To Pets

This formula is made from beer/wine by-products. Really holistic, huh?

Inulin - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - aids in the fermentation process.

Lactobacillus Acidophilus Fermentation Product - Fermentation Products - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Sugars are the common substrate of fermentation, and typical examples of fermentation products are ethanol, lactic acid, and hydrogen. However, more exotic compounds can be produced by fermentation, such as butyric acid and acetone. Yeast carries out fermentation in the production of ethanol in beers, wines and other alcoholic drinks, along with the production of large quantities of carbon dioxide. Grain fermentation solubles are an inexpensive by-product of human food and beverage production which add little or no nutritional value to pet foods. Alcohols can cause the same damage to an animal's liver and brain as they cause in humans. But the effects can be deadly on animals since they are much smaller than us. The smaller the animal, the more deadly the effects can be. Even a small amount of alcohol may cause vomiting and damage the liver and brain.

Lactobacillus casei - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - most common application is industrial for dairy production.

Dried Enterococcus Faecium Fermentation Product - Fermentation Products - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Sugars are the common substrate of fermentation, and typical examples of fermentation products are ethanol, lactic acid, and hydrogen. However, more exotic compounds can be produced by fermentation, such as butyric acid and acetone. Yeast carries out fermentation in the production of ethanol in beers, wines and other alcoholic drinks, along with the production of large quantities of carbon dioxide.

The smaller the animal, the more deadly the effects can be. Even a small amount of alcohol may cause vomiting and damage the liver and brain. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Important clinical infections caused by Enterococcus include urinary tract infections, bacteremia, bacterial endocarditis, diverticulitis, and meningitis. What are these people thinking? This thing can't be killed with ampicillin and does not serve any useful purpose in a pet's diet. Why would these pet food producers add such ingredients as this to our pet's diets?

Bacillus subtilis - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - widely used as additives in laundry deteregents may contaminate food but rarely causes food poisoning.

Bacillus licheniformis - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - is a bacterium commonly found in the soil. Recently, studies have also shown that it is found on bird feathers, especially chest and back plumage, and most often in ground dwelling birds (like sparrows) and aquatic species (like ducks). Bacillus licheniformis, Bacillus subtilis, and Bacillus pumilus comprise the subtilis group, which has been associated with a range of clinical conditions, food spoilage such as ropy bread, and incidents of food-borne gastro-enteritis. B. licheniformis has also been associated with septicaemia, peritonitis, ophthalmitis, and food poisoning in humans, as well as with bovine toxaemia and abortions.

Aspergillus oryzae - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - to saccharify rice, potatoes and grains for fermentation in the making of alcoholic beverages as huangjiu, sake, awamori and shōchū.

Aspergillus niger - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Used in cider and wine clarification. One of the most common causes of otomycosis (fungal ear infections), which can cause pain, temporary hearing loss and, in severe cases, damage to the ear canal and tympanic membrane.

Animal Fats - Used to encourage a pet to eat ingredients they normally would not eat. Ingestion may lead to gastrointestinal upset or even pancreatitis. This can be a very painful condition for dogs. In addition, most companion animals do not need extra fat in their diets.

Beet Pulp is another cheap filler used by pet food companies. "Beet Pulp" sounds good, doesn't it? Well it's not. Just because Grandma told us we had to eat our beets as kids doesn't mean it is good for our dogs. Grandma didn't take the nutrients out of the beet and leave us just the dried fiber to eat, did she? Beet pulp is junk. Beet Pulp- From AAFCO - ("beet pulp, dried molasses" and "beet pulp, dried, plain") - the dried residue from sugar beets.

Flax Seed - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - used to make fabric, dye, paper, medicines, fishing nets and soap. Excessive consumption of flax seeds can cause diarrhea.

Tomato Pomace - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Tomato pomace is an inexpensive by-product of tomato manufacturing. Effectively, it is what is left-over after processing tomatoes for juice, ketchup, soup, etc. It is sometimes used in pet and livestock food manufacturing as a source of dietary fiber, as well as B vitamins, and (to a lesser extent) vitamin A. As the primary component of tomato pomace is the tomato skin, it has the potential for higher amounts of pesticide residues than tomatoes themselves. Tomato stems are very toxic to cats and dogs.

Niacin - - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - can produce liver toxicity at high doses. Niacin is referred to as Vitamin B3 because it was the third of the B vitamins to be discovered. It has historically been referred to as "vitamin PP."

Choline chloride is mass produced and is an important additive in feed especially for chicken where it accelerates growth. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Ascorbic acid - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - is easily oxidized and so is used as a reductant in photographic developer solutions (among others) and as a preservative. Ascorbic acid and its sodium, potassium, and calcium salts are commonly used as antioxidant food additives. Commonly known as vitamin C.

Potassium Chloride - used as the third of a three drug combination in judicial execution through lethal injection and used for making fertilizer.

Salt should not be added to a pet's diet. The meat source in the diet should be ample salt for the pet.

Potassium iodide - salt. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia - Potassium iodide is used in photography, in the preparation of silver(I) iodide for high speed photographic film. Potassium iodide is also added to table salt in small quantities to make it "iodized". Chronic overexposure can have adverse effects on the thyroid.

Sodium selenite is mainly used in the manufacture of colorless glass - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

Rice - causes dilated cardiomyopathy in cats and dogs. Rice in pet food interfers with taurine levels which enlarges the heart and eventually kills the cat or dog.

Brewer's Rice - From AAFCO - the dried extracted residue of rice resulting from the manufacture of wort (liquid portion of malted grain) or beer and may contain pulverized dried spent hops in an amount not to exceed 3 percent.
