Nedá mi nepripojiť sa k tejto Vašej diskusii: Pogromy na krmivá sú tu na dennom poriadku, ale ak už chceme uvádzať nejaké informácie, tak aspoň korektne: Propylgalát je konzervačná látka, ktorá
môže vyvolať alergiu. To zdôrazňujem. Neradila by som ho v žiadnom prípade k BHA alebo BHT. Podľa istej webovej stránky , ktorú uviedol v inej téme Marco je pridávanie biliniek do krmív len
marketingovým ťahom rovnako ako aj uvádzanie čerstvého mäsa v zložení. Alergickú reakciu môže vyvolať aj ryža, aj kuracina a nakoniec dnes už aj rôzne iné zložky. To Amaguk: prepáč, ale doposiaľ som sa nestretla s informáciou, že by niektorý výrobca uvádzal čistotu múčky na obale krmiva alebo nedajbože na web stránke, kde je skôr tendencia v poslednom čase informácie tajiť. Takže dá sa veriť výrobcom, ktorý uvádzajú, že konzervujú len prírodne ak nieje nutnosťou uvádzať konzervanty, ktoré sú obsiahnuté v surovinách, ktoré sa priamo u výrobcu nespracovávajú? Myslím, že to niekedy preháňame s
odbornou diskusiou , pretože všetci sme odborníci na granulované krmivá
Offtopic: Našla som sušené mäso, ktoré som rozoberala inde, bolo konzervované BHA, BHT a ako bonus aj Etoxiquinom. Výrobca to aspoň nezatajuje, čo mu slúži ku cti. Takže prirodzená strava sa dnes dá už len veľmi ťažko nájsť. Nebudem tu rozoberať kŕmenie B.A.R.F - om...Malý úryvok z webu, ktorý uvádzam nižšie...:
“Natural” and “Organic” claims. The definition of “natural” adopted by AAFCO is very broad, and allows for artificially processed ingredients that most of us would consider very unnatural indeed. The term “organic”, on the other hand, has a very strict legal definition under the USDA National Organic Program. However, some companies are adept at evading the intent of both of these rules. For instance, the name of the company or product may be intentionally misleading. Some companies use terms such as “Nature” or “Natural” or even “Organic” in the brand name, whether or not their products fit the definitions. Consumers should also be aware that the term “organic” does not imply anything at all about animal welfare; products from cows and chickens can be organic, yet the animals themselves are still just “production units” in enormous factory farms.
Ingredient quality claims. A lot of pet foods claim they contain “human grade” ingredients. This is a completely meaningless term — which is why the pet food companies get away with using it. The same applies to “USDA inspected” or similar phrases. The implication is that the food is made using ingredients that are passed by the USDA for human consumption, but there are many ways around this. For instance, a facility might be USDA-inspected during the day, but the pet food is made at night after the inspector goes home. The use of such terms should be viewed as a “Hype Alert.”
“Meat is the first ingredient” claim. A claim that a named meat (chicken, lamb, etc.) is the #1 ingredient is generally seen for dry food. Ingredients are listed on the label by weight, and raw chicken weighs a lot, since contains a lot of water. If you look further down the list, you’re likely to see ingredients such as chicken or poultry by-product meal, meat-and-bone meal, corn gluten meal, soybean meal, or other high-protein meal. Meals have had the fat and water removed, and basically consist of a dry, lightweight protein powder. It doesn’t take much raw chicken to weigh more than a great big pile of this powder, so in reality the food is based on the protein meal, with very little “chicken” to be found. This has become a very popular marketing gimmick, even in premium and “health food” type brands. Since just about everybody is now using it, any meaning it may have had is so watered-down that you may just as well ignore it.
Special ingredient claims. Many of the high-end pet foods today rely on the marketing appeal of people-food ingredients such as fruits, herbs, and vegetables. However, the amounts of these items actually present in the food are small; and the items themselves may be scraps and rejects from processors of human foods — not the whole, fresh ingredients they want you to picture. Such ingredients don’t provide a significant health benefit and are really a marketing gimmick.
Pet food marketing and advertising has become extremely sophisticated over the last few years. It’s important to know what is hype and what is real to make informed decisions about what to feed your pets.
