FROMM dog food

FROMM dog food

Just received a sample from pet shop, When I saw the ingredient, it include " Menadione Sodium Bisulfite". I wonder this is not good for the dog? Thanks!

The answer is here:

Why is it bad?

  • causes cytotoxicity in liver cells
  • causes formation of radicals from enzymes of leucocytes, with the consequence of cytotoxic reactions
  • considerably weakens the immune system
  • possible mutagenic effects
  • damages the natural vitamin K cycle
  • has no effect on coumarin derivatives, which are often present incommercial food due to mold contamination (toxic when ingested)
  • causes hemolytic anemia and hyperbilirubinemia, not just linked to large doses
  • disturbs the level of calcium ions (Ca2+) in the body, which is an important factor fibrinolysis
  • is directly toxic in high doses (vomiting, albuminuria), unlike natural vitamin K
  • builds up in tissue and has been detected in eggs, meat and milk of animals supplemented with menadione derivatives
  • causes irritation of skin and mucous membranescauses allergic reactions and eczema
