Allergies and obesity are reducing the life expectancy of
pets fed industrial food, said Gerard Lippert, a Belgian
acupuncturist for animals who recently completed a study on the
diets of 600 dead dogs, according to an
Associated French Press article
.
Of the 600 corpses he examined, he alleged that "those fed on processed foods died three years earlier than those fed on food made in the home." Scientific data to support his statement were not found in the article.
