assertion
Analysis v1
Pet dogs and cats get heart disease only when they eat processed food, not when they eat real meat.
Scientific Claim
Domesticated carnivores fed ultraprocessed diets develop atherosclerotic plaque and cardiovascular disease, whereas those fed species-appropriate meat-based diets do not.
Original Statement
“But when you look at captive carnivores such as domesticated dogs and cats who are not fed what they'd eat in the wild and instead eat similar ultraprocessed garbage like we do, plaque and heart disease, they suddenly appear.”
