But I really do
understand your manic need to defend a high carb diet since corn is such a major ingredient in Hill's Science Diet, the company you work for. You obviously don't know the nutritional benefits of corn! LOL |

I do have to admit that the connection between chronic oral inflammation and infection, and chronic degenerative disease, is compelling and has me pretty convinced of a causal relationship. -Alison in OH |

Karen, I called the company about 8-9 months ago and asked about that. They had no idea what I was talking about! Probably because you never called them, LOL Unlike you, Lauren, I'm not a liar. Why don't YOU call them and see what kind of answer you get? Tell me exactly what I've lied about? mmm????????? ________ See my cats: http://community.webshots.com/album/56955940rWhxAe Raw Diet Info: http://www.holisticat.com/drjletter.html http://www.geocities.com/rawfeeders/ForCatsOnly.html Declawing Info: http://www.wholecat.com/articles/claws.htm |

Why don´t you tell us what they are? Oh boy. shaking my head in frustration We've gone over this so many times before.... 1) Ground and cooked corn is about 99% digestible for starters. 2) Corn is high in linoleic acid for a healthy skin and coat. 3) Corn is one of the least allergenic grains out there. ....and there's many more. |

... 3) Corn is one of the least allergenic grains out there. For cats specifically or for all mammals? I only ask because my mother recently tested positive for an allergy to corn (amongst other foods). She has eaten corn in one form or another her whole life, but never realized she was allergic to it. It seems her reaction to it did not come in the form of typical allergy symptoms (no itching, hives, swelling, etc. Just coughing and occasional headaches). I would guess that many others have undiagnosed food allergies--including allergies to corn--for the same reason. rona -- ***For e-mail, replace .com with .ca Sorry for the inconvenience!*** |
