Hello friends, here go some information about our Therapy Diet:
Fresh fisk can be frozen only for 15 days. After this it is not good for eating. Here we only freeze fish for 1 week.
Here chicken neck is given them alternately to the fish. Both are calcium sources, and the fish also provides iodine and omega 3. We give fish for our pugs during one week, then chicken necks for 2 weeks. Both are given uncooked to keep the calcium. Fish preparation was already posted. For preparing the neck, we cut off the skin and cut it in small pieces. Then we grind it in a liquefier with jagged razors, preventing them to choke.
Vegetables lose vitamines if frozen for more than 20 days.
According to what is recommended by Chinese Medicine, we have been cooking grinded meat to easy digestion, mainly for the elders, who cannot waste their precious energies in digestion process. The cooking must be fast. We use the water from it for cooking the rice, so we don’t lose nutrient.
Rice (or any other grain) must be moisten in water during the night before cooking.
Any cooking cannot last more than 15 minutes.
Vegetables are better cooked by steaming.
