Is Your Pet’s Itchy Skin Caused by Their Food?

by Marketing Ancestral

One of the most common reasons pet owners visit the vet is for chronic itching, licking, or skin flare-ups. While parasites and environmental triggers can be to blame, diet is often the hidden culprit.

Signs of a Food-Related Skin Issue:

  • Constant scratching or biting at paws
  • Recurrent ear infections
  • Red or inflamed skin
  • Dull coat or excessive shedding

Common Dietary Triggers:

  • Low-quality proteins or meat by-products
  • Grains like wheat and corn
  • Artificial colours, preservatives, and additives

Nutrient Deficiencies Matter Too

A diet lacking in zinc, omega-3s, and vitamin E can contribute to dry, irritated skin. Transitioning to a diet rich in high-quality animal proteins, organs and anti-inflammatory fats can make a noticeable difference. 

Always consult your vet before making changes, but a skin-friendly diet is often a simple and effective way to help your pet feel more comfortable.
