Our Story
We always thought if you ate fresh food - by and large - you would get all the nutrients you need.
Then one of our Spaniels who was very fit, active and apparently healthy developed joint pain. The Vet was reluctant to blame anything for this but mentioned his diet as possibly contributory.
We decided to look into whether we could do better with what we were feeding him as that sounded a better choice than a lifetime on powerful anti-inflammatory medication.
So our first idea was; let's feed him human food.
We bought the ingredients we thought would make a sensible diet for Ralf and to make sure we were on the 'right track' (not about to make a bad problem even worse) sent them off to a Specialist Laboratory for testing.
The results were very surprising and differed depending on whether examining a vitamin or a mineral.
No vitamins were found in excess, some though barely existent. Whereas some minerals were deficient, others in excess. We corrected the shortfalls in Ralf's diet and he seems to be doing fine now (touch wood).
What we discovered had implications for our own and family's health and so also decided to investigate creating a simple yet comprehensive Vitamin and Mineral Food Supplement.
So here we are!
