Wysong Vegan Diet is a meatless clinical diet for use in nutritional management of adverse food reactions in dogs. Entirely vegetarian, containing no meat or meat by-products. Designed to be used with meats which are non-allergenic for your dog. This product is intended for intermittent or supplemental feeding only.

Wysong Vegan has been specifically formulated to achieve the best possible nutritional value for dogs. The purpose of this diet is three fold:

1. It can be used as an elimination diet to determine which meat products can be tolerated by allergic or food sensitive animals. By combining Vegan with different singular meats, one at a time, and then feeding, the determination can be made as to which meat products an animal may be sensitve or allergic to. This is far superior to any laboratory test and feeding protocol.
   
2. Vegan can be used as the vegetable base for home-prepared diets. In this case, Vegan provides properly processed and digestible grains, legumes, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and probiotics, then the owner feeds fresh meats and organs combined with this diet. This is arguably the best conceivable way pets should be fed, i.e., only those food ingredients that need to be cooked (grains and legumes) are, whereas those food ingredients that have nutritional value diminished by cooking (such as fresh meats), are not.
   
3. Vegan provides the best possible processed diet for people who desire to feed their dogs vegan style (no animal products whatsoever).

Although Wysong has formulated this diet to their best ability to meet current NRC nutrient minimums for dogs, they do not subscribe to the belief that the optimal diet can be achieved by simply meeting arbitrary nutrient minimums for basic nutrient categories such as protein, fat, ash, vitamins, and minerals. (It is important to note that the Vegan diet does not meet NRC minimums for protein for the feline.)

As Dr. Wysong discusses thoroughly in the CD, “The Thinking Person’s Master Key to Health,” and in the book “The Truth About Pet Foods,” the pet food industry and the majority of the public proceed under the mistaken belief that so-called “100% complete and balanced” diets can be fabricated in pet food manufacturing plants. Unfortunately, 100% is not known about nutrition, and therefore the “100% complete and balanced” claim is a myth. Owners who subscribe to this belief and feed foods based on the claim do so at extreme risk to the health of their animal.

As described thoroughly in Wysong literature, humans and the companion animals in our care are removed from their proper genetic context. Part of that context was fresh raw foods. Such foods have bounties of nutritional value not even imagined by modern nutritionists, much less analyzed for, or with “minimums” established.

Wysong advises all pet owners to supplement any processed diet (including Wysong) with fresh whole natural foods as much as possible to augment nutritional value.

For animal owners who wish to feed a purely vegetation-based diet to pets which are by their nature carnivores (dogs and cats), it must be understood that they do this with inherent risk. Carnivores through millennia have adapted to meat eating. It is an experiment for us here, in this latest moment of time, to attempt to switch them to an entirely vegetation-based diet.
