The Food We Choose Changes Everything—For Us and Our Pets
My journey into nutrition started in 2017 when I was diagnosed with my first autoimmune disease. That moment changed everything for me. I dove deep into researching nutrition, started a blog, and began writing about how food impacts health. Through this journey, I realized how much what we eat affects every aspect of our well-being, from energy levels to sleep quality.
Last year I purchased an Oura Ring, which has been one of the best investments I’ve ever made for my health. It tracks how your body responds to food, shows how even one bad meal can impact sleep, heart rate, and overall well-being. I only wish we had something similar for our pets!
Now that we sell pet food, I’m diving into the world of dog and cat nutrition with the same passion. It makes a difference, just like it does for us. We can make better choices for our pets while still keeping costs affordable.
Over the next few months, I’ll be sharing a series of posts and videos explaining how to choose the healthiest pet food options—without breaking the bank. Below are some of the top brands we carry and why they stand out:
Canine Caviar
Canine Caviar is a holistic, alkaline-based pet food brand designed to improve digestion and overall health. Founded by Jeff Baker, the company’s mission is to provide simple, limited-ingredient diets that promote longevity. Their recipes focus on single-protein sources, making them an excellent choice for pets with sensitivities. As of now, Canine Caviar has had no recalls, reinforcing their commitment to safety and quality.
Zignature
Zignature offers a grain-free, limited-ingredient diet that prioritizes animal proteins. Their formulas are designed to provide optimal nutrition for dogs with food sensitivities. The company sources high-quality meats such as lamb, duck, and salmon while avoiding common allergens like chicken, corn, wheat, and soy. Zignature has maintained a recall-free record, demonstrating its commitment to pet health.
