Why is the diet all meat and why doesn’t it contain grains or vegetables?
AFS Meat Eater Diet, though predominately a meat diet, and targeted primarily for dogs, has a small percentage of cereal food fines included. Because some dogs are very active, they consume increased quantities of food and extract and burn more calories from their food. AFS has included this carbohydrate source to satisfy this demand. Also, the extreme digestibility factor of this food supplies extra fiber for stool formation. AFS Carnivore Diet, targeted for cats, does not need the added carbohydrate due to the sedentary life-styles of most cats. Cats and dogs that consume cooked grains as their primary food too often manifest very apparent nutritional deficiencies, i.e. weight, skin, and odor problems. Vegetables, though not most carnivores preferred choice of food, can be successfully added to meat diets, but should be emulsified and fed raw to protect their natural digestive enzymes for better assimilation. AFS Rin Tin Tin products have added fruits and vegetables.
