60: High Protein Dog Food (Is A Marketing Trick)

Listen on

Episode notes

If some protein is good, then more is better, right? Not always! While there are applications for higher protein levels in dog food, there is a limit to how much dietary protein can be processed and metabolised in a day, so "high protein" food might not be any better for your pet.   Nicole and Jez discuss why there are optimal levels of protein in foods, and why more protein isn't always useful.
