Grapefruit seed extract kills all dangerous bacteria.

It kills most bacteria but the dangerous bacteria it may not. But the dangerous bacteria is rarely seen in meat today. All meat fed is USDA human grade. The meat is thoroughly inspected and carefully chosen for the Home Made 4 Life diet. There should be no concern. The dog and cats gut does not provide for bacteria to harbour in the gut long enough for the bacteria to be of a concern. The carnivore’s gut is much different then a human’s gut. The carnivore’s gut is shorter and quicker for processing food thru. Prevention is the key to good health. That is why we have added GSE(Grapefruit Seed Extract) to the diet to ensure that the meat is safe. It is not necessary but we want to make sure that it is SAFE. :)

If you want to find out more about GSE go to the proseed (http://www.imhotepinc.com/ITPwho.htm) or nutribiotic (http://www.nutribiotic.com) web sites to see for yourself. Ask them for scientific proof and they will provide it for you.
