Organic Nutrition Products Specialist on the Benefits of Gluten-Free Dog Treats

    DUBLIN, OH, August 13, 2013 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Pet owners may believe that they only have to be concerned about the human members of their family eating gluten-free foods. What they may not know is that most pet foods are comprised of gluten, which can cause dogs to suffer from many of the side effects as humans.

"Several types of common grains, including wheat, rye and barley, contain gluten," said Marianne Lease, owner of Gold Key Nutrition, which offers natural dog treats and organic cleansers. "Gluten can damage the lining of the intestine, which causes a change in its permeability and allows partially-digested food to enter the rest of the body."

Every year a growing number of Americans are diagnosed with Celiac's Disease, a chronic digestive disorder that is connected to gluten. And dogs can be diagnosed with the disease, as well.

Below are four other reasons why it is important that dog owners choose gluten-free food for their pooches:

- It is difficult for dogs to digest gluten because it is a gummy protein.
- Celiac's Disease can cause dogs to suffer from damage to the intestinal tract, weight loss and chronic diarrhea because the condition is an autoimmune disease and gluten can prompt the immune system to attack the lining of the small intestines.
- Gluten intolerance is usually the cause behind several digestion-related problems whose origin is not pinpointed until dogs are specifically tested for it.
- A number of nutritional experts claim that gluten can increase dogs' chances of developing diabetes.

There are a limited number of companies, like Gold Key Nutrition, that offer natural pet nutrition products. Gold Key Nutrition's assortment of organic dog nutrition products includes several meat-flavored gluten-free treats. The treats are made of seven all-natural ingredients.

Dog owners who are concerned that their pooches suffer from Celiac's Disease should contact their local veterinarian to schedule a gluten sensitivity test. In the case that their dogs are diagnosed with Celiac's Disease, it is important that a change of diet is implemented. Gluten-free food and treats like those from Gold Key Nutrition can help subdue some of the side effects.
