TROPICANA MAGAZINE<br />
Feeding your pet sustainable and chemical-free food has<br />
environmental benefits. Conventional pet food production<br />
can harm the environment through deforestation, water<br />
pollution, and greenhouse gas emissions, while sustainable<br />
pet food uses eco-friendly methods like organic farming.<br />
Furthermore, sustainable and chemical-free pet food<br />
promotes better pet health. Unlike conventional pet foods<br />
containing non-essential ingredients like corn, wheat, and<br />
soy, which can be allergens for some pets, sustainable pet<br />
food comprises whole, natural ingredients that are more<br />
beneficial for your pet’s well-being.<br />
Additionally, sustainable pet food boasts a more appealing<br />
taste. Unlike conventional pet foods with artificial flavours<br />
and colours that hide the true ingredients, sustainable pet<br />
food is crafted from real, whole ingredients, ensuring a<br />
flavour your pet will enjoy.<br />
