Food Sensitivity and Diet Support
Today’s pet parents are dealing with two key food related challenges: pet obesity and food sensitivity.
According to the Association for Pet Obesity Prevention (APOP): “Pet obesity in the U.S. continues to steadily increase in 2016, affecting nearly 59% of cats and 54% of dogs.”
Pets are often battling obesity issues and/or are plagued with food sensitivity (intolerance) problems.

Pet parents can now give their cat or dog an affordable (under $300) food intolerance test, developed by a veterinarian, to determine what ingredients are contributing to their pet’s chronic gastrointestinal problems.
Our team works with pet parents and their vets to introduce the food and lifestyle changes that reduce weight and result in healthier pets.
