A chemical used in Milk-Bones, Ol'Roy, Kibbles'n Bits, Hill's Pet Food and other pet foods should no longer be considered safe for consumption due to concerns about its ability to damage DNA according to a new animal-model study.
According to the Environmental Working Group: "A scientific panel created by the European Food Safety Authority found that titanium dioxide can no longer be considered as safe when used as a food additive." The panel, citing concerns about titanium dioxide's genotoxicity, or its ability to damage DNA, based its conclusion on a review of hundreds of scientific studies. EWG called on the US Food & Drug Administration to quickly consider whether to ban titanium dioxide from use in food."
A chemical that may damage our pet's DNA should not be fed to pets.
