The Clean Label Project tested popular brands and reported higher levels of lead, mercury, arsenic, cadmium, BPA, plastics, and acrylamide in kibble compared to fresh or frozen dog food. Research from Cornell University suggests dogs may ingest 3–7 times more heavy metals from pet food than people do from human food. Dry dog food showed significantly higher contaminant levels, including elevated lead and mercury, plus acrylamide formed during high-heat extrusion. BPA and plastic-related chemicals were also more common in kibble packaging. Heavy metals can accumulate in the liver and kidneys and are linked to cancer, chronic disease, and immune dysfunction. In this video, Dr. Andrew Jones breaks down what the study found, why ultra-processed kibble may increase toxic load, and what you can do to reduce your dog’s exposure. Learn practical steps such as rotating fresh foods, choosing brands that test for contaminants, and considering balanced home-prepared diets. What’s in your dog’s bowl matters. Reducing daily toxin exposure may lower long-term health risks. #dogfood #kibble #petfood #doghealth #heavymetals #leadindogfood #mercury #arsenic #cadmium #acrylamide #bpa #microplastics #pettoxins #naturalpetcare #holisticvet #veterinarysecrets #dogcancer #petwellness #rawfeeding #freshdogfood 🔔 Subscribe for more veterinary secrets and DIY health tips for your pets. đŸ“±Stay Connected with Dr. Andrew Jones DVM: 🌐 Visit our website: https://rb.gy/cjxbbi Subscribe for more pet care tips: / @veterinarysecrets Podcast: http://vetsecrets.podbean.com/ Facebook: http://facebook.com/veterinarysecrets Instagram: http://instagram.com/veterinarysecrets Twitter: http://twitter.com/dogandcatdoc Pinterest: http://pinterest.com/veterinarysecrets 📣 Share this video and subscribe (it's free!) for more videos every Tuesday and Friday! http://goo.gl/P8nNvh 📘 Dr Jones' Free Book: https://tinyurl.com/3pyu5wvj 🌟 Thank you for making me the #1 Natural Pet Health Network on YouTube! 🛍 Shop Dr. Andrew Jones' products at https://tinyurl.com/yc64huyj ⚠ Disclaimer: This video is designed for educational purposes only and should not be used as a replacement for professional veterinary care.
