“Raw foods do not have more nutritional value than cooked foods”

SCIENCE SAYS:

Raw foods do not have more nutritional value than cooked foods

Raw food has no nutritional value over cooked. Biologically, there’s no difference — the body can deal with it either way. The body responds to chicken the same – whether it’s cooked or raw.

However, raw meat is not always perfectly safe — would you feed raw chicken to your baby or child? Dogs are not anymore protected from salmonella and other foodborne illnesses than humans — they don't have iron stomachs, contrary to the myths. Plus they run around licking things after eating raw foods. We have laws for restaurants and food handling for a reason

In short, by insisting on a raw food diet, you get no benefits over cooked meat and open up possibilities for health risks not only for your animal, but for you and your family
