Monday, July 13, 2020

Scientists have systematically collected health data from pets about to ditch kibble for Nom Nom. The results are in, and they might surprise you.

The study

Never before has data been systematically collected on the health of dogs before and after the change to Nom Nom. A success story is one thing, it’s anecdotal. But a replicable and statistically significant study is an entirely different ball game.

First, a baseline was set through a health and wellness survey filled out by the pet owners. All participants gave their dogs 5 stars, rating their pre-Nom Nom health as excellent. Then the dogs were started on a four-week course of Nom Nom without any other food.

The results

|

After just 4 weeks on Nom Nom

| | --- | |

61% reported improvement in our overall health

| |

61% saw an increase in appetite

| |

58% noted less frequent stools

| |

48% reported more physical activity and better coat condition

| | 0% (which isn’t usually a number to brag about) reported negative change in well-being, energy level or lifestyle |

Talk about a success story

While word on the street has it that Nom Nom can improve body weight issues, colitis, IBS, and skin diseases — we now know it can help support the long-term goals of already healthy pets.

And, of course it is. Nutritionally complete meals made from fresh, high quality proteins and vegetables that are packed with phytonutrients and anti-inflammatory omega-3 fatty acids. Plus, Nom Nom has been shown to be more digestible than kibble — so your pet can utilize even more of that nutrient goodness.

Try a sample for yourself to see your already healthy pet go from 5 stars to off the charts. No subscription necessary.
