The Pet Food Industry Today
By Eric Weisman Warning: This Is A Graphic & Informative Report Beautiful cuts of USDA choice beef, succulent whole chicken, fresh fillets of fish, the finest cuts of fresh veal. These are the images pet food companies want you to conjure up in your mind when you are buying pet food. The reality of the products that go into pet food are very different from this image. Virtually all Prescription, Premium and Regular Brand Pet Foods contain diseased animals, by-products (heads, guts, and allowable amounts of feces), and saturated animal fat. AFFCO (allows the use of these ingredients in all meat-based pet foods. Why does the industry insist on using low cost ingredients like chicken meal, lamb meal, fish meal, animal by products, meat and bone meal, etc.? A. To make cats, dogs, and ferrets sick so veterinarians can get rich. B. To make pet food smell worse than it already does. C. To raise funds for a new Mel Gibson Movie. D. They do it save money! E. All of the above. Seriously, you may wonder why veterinarians recommend foods that contain these ingredients. Veterianarians are indoctrinated by pet food company salespeople. Pet Food Companies pay veterinary schools to give them a captive audience: They even give free food to vet students win their loyalty. Also consider that veterinarians are propagandized by traditional vet college faculty into believing that slaughtering farm animals and running disease ridden cruel animal factory farms is necessary for dietary requirements of pets and humans. These people convince vet students that meat is not only necessary in the dog, cat, and diets, but also the human diet. There are some veterinarians and medical doctors that still believe that plant proteins are different from animal proteins, even though the name and molecular configuration for the respective protein is the same. This is not "Rocket Science"! There is no difference in the protein configuration. Only the source is different. 3 out of every 4 people that you know (don't forget to include yourself unless you are a strict vegetarian) will die from a disease that is related to eating flesh and dairy products. Fox News makes a big deal about some xyz# bird nasal virus that kills 10 people in Guan Dang China. Then the World Health Organization quarantines the whole city of Toronto, Ontario, Canada for 2 months because 5 Chinese people cough green puke with this same bird nasal virus. Then Fox News says that the World Health Organization is worried that this may be the next major epidemic and will kill millions of people. It may be a terrorist attack: Raise the ALERT to Fire Engine Red with triple X's running under the picture of Geraldo Rivera holding a microphone while chasing some down-and-out hooded She-ite Muslim Cleric in Bagdad, Iraq. The US may be under microbiological attack! Hello! We have an epidemic of unheard of proportions right here and right now! It has nothing to do with Asian Bird Nasal Virus or a Terrorist Attack. Millions of Americans and Canadians are dying from this epidemic right now. This is a shark attack! Not the aquatic shark that we are eating out of existance at Dead Lobster (Red Lobster Restaurant). I'm talking about the real sharks: Drug Companies, Chemical Companies, Meat, Poultry, Fish Industry, Health Insurance Companies and the Medical Industry. They are having a feeding frenzy. Virtually all heart attacks, strokes, and cancers are caused by the consumption of meat, poultry, and fish. The medical doctors will tell you that the causes are genetic. They will tell you that diet has little to do with these diseases. After all, medical doctors have an extensive formal background in nutrition: NOT! Only medical doctors can tell you whether any disease is caused by food or genes: NOT. Right? How can a medical doctor tell you about anything related to diet when they have virtually no formal training in nutrition or the dietary treatment of disease. You may as well ask Oprah or fat Dr. Phil: He's a pyschologist who doesn't have any formal nutritional training either. The very largest population studies conducted by a number of the world's leading universities proves that a meat-poultry-fish-dairy diet far outweighs the effect of genes when it comes to the cause of heart attacks, strokes, cancer and maturity onset diabetes. Flesh and dairy products shorten the lives of millions of Americans every year. Why don't medical doctors tell you not to eat flesh and dairy products? Most medical doctors like most veterinarians make the most money when they are treating illness: Not health. This same fact applies to the drug companies. 75% of the Antibiotics produced in the US go toward slaughterhouse animal production. 90% of the Steroid Growth Hormones produced in the US also go toward slaughter animal production. The same drug companies that make animals grow bigger, faster and more mutated are the same companies that make human and small animal medications. Drug companies do not want some of the business: They want all the business they can get. This is why you very seldom hear a medical doctor or veterinarian advocate a vegetarian or vegan diet. Cats, dogs, and ferrets die from many of the same diseases that kill humans. Heart attacks, strokes, and cancers are amongst the most common causes of pre-death conditions in small animals. Most pet guardians euthanize their pets because they do not want to deal with a pet illness from the cost or time standpoint. I will not debate this issue here. Diet plays a major roll in the quality of life of pets much like it does in the life of humans. Vets will tell you that the pathophysiology of heart, stroke and cancer diseases is different in small animals than it is in humans. Why do universities perform nutrition and drug studies on dogs and cats if they are so different from humans? They are not that much different from humans. Aside from their size and posture, there is very little genetic or physiological difference from humans: Yes, one says bow-wow, the other says meow-meow and both stand on all fours, but aside from the fact that humans stand on two feet and have what is considered higher intelligence, we are very similar physiologically. Eliminating saturated animal fat, cholesterol, animal meal, sick animals, animal by products and all the dryed blood, fecal matter, animal based mold and bacterial residues that come in pet foods is most important for the longest and healthiest life of your pet. Using "100% complete for all life stages " Evolution Diet will help extend the life of your pet(s) even further when you restrict caloric intake by 25-30% and hydrate the dry kibble. We have observed increases of 35%. You can accomplish life expectancy increases for your pet, but the sooner you switch, the greater the chance that life expectancy will be increased. Evolution Diet can not guarantee any increase in life expectancy. There are MD's and DVM's that are exceptions to the Drug Industry-Meat Industry Rules. Some of the best physicians and veterinarians in the country advocate vegetarian diets for humans and cats and dogs respectively. There are veterinarians that use no other foods except Evolution for there own pets. These same vets also sell Evoltuion Diet to their clientel. Evolution Diet does not go into veterinary colleges to brain-wash students. When I asked the University of Minnesota Veterianary College to speak to thier student body, I have been repeatedly refused. The drug companies and faculty do not want any alternative views being taught at their drug-flesh-dairy pushing vet school. Knowledge is a powerful tool for change. Drug companies and vet school faculties do not want change. Their moto should be, "Keep the disease business in the US alive and well". There are now tens of thousands of cats, dogs, and ferrets living very long and healthy lives on Evolution Diet Vegan Pet Food products. Some of the largest animal sanctuaries in the United States use Evolution Diet for their small animals. They include Farm Sanctuary in New York State, Wilderness Ranch in Colorado, Home at Last in Kentucky and many more. Even the North American Wolf Sanctuary used Evolution Diet exclusively for its' wolves. These organizations rely on Evolution because it increases the life - health expectancy of their animals and because all of our products are cleaner and cruelty-free as compared to virtually all other super, ultra and organic brands of pet foods. When I first started investigating what goes into super premium, premium and regular pet foods in 1987, I was shocked. When I told my veterinarian friends and associates that I was developing a vegetarian line of pet food products, they thought I was "Loosing It". "The elevator hadn't gone all the way to the top." "The caboose was loose." In the beginning, I felt like a stray dog in a vietnamese restaurant. They thought that dogs, cats, and ferrets could not exist on a strictly vegetarian diet. They thought that cats, dogs, and ferrets had to eat sick cows, fish, and other animals and animal parts or they could not survive. I thought to myself, "Eric you may become a cat, dog, and ferret killer by selling this vegetarian pet food. Eric you #%*@ vegetarian animal killer! You are going to cause the death of millions of cats, dogs and ferrets just because you are one of those communist pinko vegetarians. What is your problem?" After listening to enough veterinarians, I came to believe I was destined to become the "Ted Bundy" of small animals. I would go down in history winning the Guiness Book Of World Records as an "Infamous Pet Serial Killer." As "tenacious as an Old Bull Dog" I continued. Evolution was first manufactured and sold in 1989. I started to sell Evolution in local stores and a few local vet clinics. I kept waiting to hear about all the premature deaths of pets due to malnutrition. That never happened. I started to advertise in the classifed sections of national magazines like Vegetarian Times, Dog Fancy, Cat Fancy, Dog World, Ferrets USA, and Pet Product Industry News. We are still in these magazines today. We have used television ads on Animal Planet, Fox News, Bravo, TNT, NBC and ABC. I was convinced that cats, dogs, and ferrets could do just as well or better on a plant based diet than they could on a meat based diet. After twenty years of observations with my own animals and getting results from other clients that use Evolution Diet all over the US and Canada, I can absolutely assure you that a plant based diet for dogs, cats and ferrets is not just the equal of a meat based diet: It is superior in virtually all respects. When you buy meat-based pet food, you are supporting the "Houses of Hell" Factory Animal Farms and the Factory Slaughterhouses. You will never witness worse behavior by humans than at Factory Slaughterhouses or Factory Animal Farms. If you are buying products that come from a filthy slaugterhouse, you are paying people to brutaly torture & kill innocent farm animals. Virtually all farm animals in the US and Canada are butchered while they are still fully conscious. Why? Because it takes less time and costs less to kill animals in this horendous way. Why take the time to stunn an animal when you can just start butchering it while it is still conscious? For the slaughterhouse industry management there is only the bottom line: More profit. More blood money. These guys make Daracula look like Elmer Fudd. When you buy flesh products you support this monstrous industry. There is no need for you or your pets to consume flesh products. You and your pets can live much longer and healthier without them. The people, animals and our planet will do much better without the huge amount of pollution that comes from Animal Factory Farms and Organic Animal Factory Farms. Do not delude yourself. Any Animal Farm is cruel and environmentally destructive. Animal Farms are even more devastating to the human mind, which has to rationlize the raising and killing of innocent animals for the greedy tastes of those that do care about the suffering of others (that is asumming you have a mind) of course . Remember: The most important sign of mental illness is the lack of compassion for the suffering of others. When you say all you care about is the taste of shoving flesh in your mouth, you are saying you do not care about the suffering and genocide of others and that includes innocent non-human animals. Eric Weisman, Dr. of Health Sciences, CEO, Evolution Diet May 25, 2008 “Nothing will benefit human health and increase chances for survival of all life on Earth more than the Evolution to a Vegetarian Diet” Albert Einstein (1879-1955) “Never be afraid to do what’s right, especially if the well-being of a person or animal is at stake. Society’s punishments are small compared to the wounds we inflict on our soul when we look the other way” Martin Luther King, Jr. (1930-1968) “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated” Mahatma Gandhi (1869-1948) “All ancient philosophy was oriented toward the simplicity of life and taught a certain kind of modesty in one’s need. In light of this, the few philosophic vegetarians have done more for mankind than all new philosophers, and as long as philosophers do not take courage to seek out a totally changed way of life and to demonstrate it by their example, they are worth nothing.” Friedrich Wilhelm Nietzsche (1844-1900) “The world is a dangerous place to live; not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don’t do anything about it” Albert Einstein “The most violent weapon on earth is the table fork” Mahatma Gandhi “Logical discussion will not change the mind of a person who has dementia and most Americans suffer from this syndrome” Eric Weisman “Any participation in the creation of suffering and mayhem against non-human and human animals is society’s greatest crime. Silence about this barbaric aggression is society’s second greatest injustice” Eric Weisman "Americans were talked into robbing, raping and masacering over 15 million Native American Men, Women and Children between 1776 and 1900(only 200,000 were left alive in 1900 in The US). This fact proves that Politicians, the Church, Realestate Tycoons and Weapons Manufacturers can convince Americans to kill just about anyone for any made up reason." Eric Weisman Goebbels was Hitler's minister of propaganda and said "you can control any people, any time any place by doing the following 3 things" 1. Always have an enemy real or perceived (Some examples: 90's the Culture War, The War on Drugs, The War on Cancer, The War Against Bill Clinton, 2000's The War on Terror, The War Against Obama and his Socialism (what a joke). The War against Socialized Medicine, The War against newer, less expensive and more effective Nutritional Medicine 2. Wrap the issue in the flag so that all dissent is considered unpatriotic and they will be attacked or marginalized like peace, socialized medicine, nutritional medicine, vegetarianism and veganism 3. CONTROL THE MESSAGE, but it must be repeated and repeated over and over again until it becomes the truth (drug companies tell us about the importance of drugs - chemicals while Arby's, The Big M, Subway and Wendy's tell us about the importance of eating flesh every 5 minutes on TV and Radio. Did I forget to mention veterinarians and MD's talk to us about the importance of using these same products?) There is Only One Way Stop Corrupt Government & Get Clean, Effective Government. Stop All Lobbying Money and All Forms of Perks that come from any Industry to any person in or about to be in Government. I am talking about all money and high paying jobs given to All Elected Government Officials, Campaigning Politicians and Government Agency Employees including the Military while in office or after being in office. Industry Officials and Government Officers, Agency Employees or immediate family members who break this law should have mandatory 10 year sentences without probation and with severe financial penalties with ongoing FBI & Government Accounting Office Investigations and Policing. |
