The discovery of antibiotics in the 1930s revolutionized healthcare by treating diseases previously incurable. However, their widespread use led to resistance in some bacteria. This growing issue of antibiotic resistance, classified by WHO as one of the greatest global health threats, necessitates reducing antibiotic use to effectively address it.
Antibiotics are excessively used in the animal industry, where about 70% of global antibiotic consumption goes to animal breeding. In cat and dog food, it is often difficult to determine the origin and type of meat due to low traceability. This makes it challenging to gain insight into the use of antibiotics and practices in animal husbandry.
In the production of Petgoods' insect protein, there is never any need for antibiotics - neither as a preventive measure nor for treating illnesses. This is because the species used, larvae of the black soldier fly, have an exceptional immune system and are naturally resistant to diseases. They also grow rapidly on their own.
Therefore, when you feed your dog or cat Petgood, you can be certain that you are not contributing to antibiotic resistance through the food they eat. You can also be assured that antibiotics or medicinal residues never end up in Petgoods' food.
