Whoa!!! Look at that. Ingredients that cause Diabetes in cats!! And in the first 6 ingredients as well. Tsk Tsk. Wow. Meat isn't even the first 2 ingredients for one of those diets. Cats are obligate carnivores and do not digest, absorb, or benefit from any fruits, vegetables, sugars, or carbohydrate plant matter in general. Any type carbohydrate is broken down into more sugars. It puts the pancreas into overdrive to produce an over abundance of insulin. This causes diabetes and hypoglycemia. Cats are just not meant to have any of that nasty stuff in their systems. Why do you think Feline Diabetes is so high in this country? It's from people feeding biologically inappropriate diets. And it's not just Science Diet. A ton of cat foods are just as low quality. (Also, peas have been linked to the formation of bladder stones)


And when that said diabetic cat goes to the vet it gets put on more SD!

It's a loop. SD causes the diabetes and SD is used to treat it. Big hulking surprise! Ingenious marketing strategy on SD's part though. It's a 'great' way to permanently get pet owners to keep feeding their food.

What's even more fun is if you compare the ingredients in SD to Purina. Purina is pretty much the "store brand" SD.
