I have had organic vegan animals in my teens live long, healthy fit lives. Being an organic raw vegan, the concept of enzymes and Dr. Marty's video was aimed to assure everyone his diet was the best preventative to disease.

Over centuries, human companion animals have been domesticated. I understood their lineage to wolves, are perhaps like humans to the caveman?

I'm sure celebrities mentioned (including Oprah) and Dr. Marty himself said he started preparing food for his companion animals. If anyone has seen a slaughterhouse (even 25 years ago or before as I did a child), the animals are sickly (to say the least). In commercial flesh/meat industries, (see "What's the Health?" benign edited scenes next to PETA realism) the "human grade" meat often contains spliced tumors, antibiotics, hormones, etc. (Note: Dr. Marty’s is not even human-grade labeled.)

As a holistic practitioner myself, I know that the toxins obviously are throughout the flesh. Our role of a liver is to produce lipase to break down fats, too much oil, and collects most toxic matter eaten. (Or liquids, note: compare a liver of one who doesnt drink alcohol, to one who drinks socially, one who started drinking too much for 10 years, one who drank too much (alcoholism) since teens for 35 years). Pharmaceutical studies included. The livers of humans that were given or took alcohol or drugs for most of their lives vs. partial or not at all are completely inflamed, grossly enlarged, and full of that toxic matter. On factory farming animals start out given growth hormones, antibiotics, fed far from what is natural to cows, or turkeys, etc...Factory fishing is confined, our waters polluted, many salmon grown in tanks given who knows what?

I would think Oprah and Dr. Marty have their chefs go find at least organically grown, humane as possible...sentient animals killed for humans that still consume animal flesh. The chefs like industry stylists, hairdressers, etc. have their "ins" to the "best organic human-grade organs". (Why do I keep remembering Hannibal Lector’s "Silence of the Lambs" where he describes the satiated ecstasy of a human kidney?)

For the price, even as a raw organic vegan, I have friends that could get organic human-grade meat (perhaps not organs), and I could find all the other organic blueberries, ginger already fresh in my kitchen. It would be a lot less to have them (God forbid my own conscience) minced, blend, add full spectrum omegas, probiotics to this raw mixture.

I know this companion animal likes organic cooked chicken’s breasts, and it is much more cost-efficient, and not too difficult to figure out how much her 8-pound body weighs.

Therefore obviously this is not about skimping on costs to give my human companion animal the best. In a vegan household, wanting what the pack animal is eating is often sprouted quinoa, and kale, or fermented foods. Sprouted almond butter on organic apples, as snacks, which this pup loves.

There is no question in the modern ethical sustainable household a canine could live a very long life, free of disease, adapted with wisdom of nutrients to a plant-based diet. All the animals in the "cleanly packed raw nuggets" just add water, routinely feed on grass, seed, and plant-based food if raised naturally. My dog would not eat Dr. Marty’s. I mixed it in with the organic food she enjoys, and she picked around it. I mashed the pellets well with warm water 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup. I tried for days.

We all want to do what's best for our fur children. (Well, not all. One would wish "we all" want to care for those we have dominion with.) Well, assured I could create the same organic ingredients, if I wish to make connections with an organic butcher. For a large nine or feline, or both if one choses to go back to roots of wild wolves, for our otherwise pampered, domesticated tame companions...I think it's best and most cost-efficient, not as "clean to packaging" to just blend the ingredients without destroying enzymes. (No ninja speed needed.) Even if you do, humans eat cooked food, which does rob us of our natural enzymes to break down the food. This led me after years to being over 10 years raw organic vegan (so did watching "GMO OMG"), even though I ate organic not knowing the horrors of what Monsanto/Bayer is doing to out children, fur children, food, environment...

Enough said!

P.S. Forgive spell errors, run-on sentences, I had to comment, and often lack the time.
