If you've ever wondered:

If your dog or cat is good for you but not so good for the environment

If kibble is bad and raw feeding is truly better

How dogs and cats digestion really works

If cats can go vegan and dogs can eat insects

And how you feed food scraps to your pets healthily...

Then The Pet Nutrition Show is worth a listen. Each week, we talk to top academics, vets and other industry folk about the latest research in the lab, the latest food innovations on the market, and Dr Anna does food hack demos you can do right at home.

From food waste to pet food

Sustainable Pet Nutrition: Transforming Food Waste into Pet Food

In this episode of 'The Pet Nutrition Show', host Dr. Anna Sutton and co-host Amanda discuss an interesting topic: the use of food waste in pet food. While we all strive to minimise our own food waste, the food industry faces a different kind of challenge - dealing with vast amounts of waste on an industrial scale. Today, we dive into the innovative ways one leading company, Kagome, is turning carrot pulp and tomato skin and seed, into valuable ingredients for pet food.

Their guest, Troy Hugdson, marketing lead with Kagome, shares the challenges and the benefits of creating NinjinFibre carrot fibre and LycoFibre tomato fibre, full of antioxidants and beneficial fibre, from food waste. He also reveals future plans for producing beetroot and apple fibre. The episode concludes with a 'food hack' for pet owners.
