A Unique Scientific Approach to Pet Nutrition
Kevin Meehan, the developer of Mulligan Stew, formulated a pet food through a unique scientific approach originating at the DNA level. Based on the Hayflick Limit and the research of noted Russian scientist, Alexei Olovnikof, there is a genetic clock ticking away within all cells that dictates aging. The most credible theory to date is the Telomere Shortening Response Theory, which presumes that as cells replicate, the segments of DNA known as telomeres shorten. There is evidence to support the concept that these end cap segments are indeed the "clocks of aging". Telomeres also play a role in protecting chromosomes from damage as well as maintaining their complete replications. The answer to extending life in mammals will ultimately involve the preservation of telomere integrity and length to the DNA.
An animal’s life expectancy is far shorter than humans and this difference in life span is due to the animal’s ability to repair damaged DNA at a far less effective rate. In other words, our beloved pets have less capability to protecting their own telomere structure which in turn damages their DNA.
Most molecules that damage cells are oxygen intoxic form. There are certain enzymes - cysteine & methionine, that prevent this damage and when kept in a stable active state, scavenge these detrimental oxygen molecules. We observe that our domestic pets have far less levels of these enzymes than humans, hence their vulnerability to oxidative damage that results in shorter, unhealthier lives. Several studies in animals have demonstrated that by including dietary compounds which increase the levels of these enzymes correlates to a greater life expectancy and a healthier state of existence.
Considerable evidence now demonstrates that the components in Mulligan Stew Pet Food have potent effects on raising the levels of the amino acids cysteine and methionine. It has been suggested that maintaining optimum levels of the two sulfur-containing amino acids found in Mulligan Stew may promote longevity in animals. Experiments have shown that by supplementing the diets of mice and guinea pigs with these substances resulted in a considerable increase in their life spans.
Mulligan Stew Pet Food formula is currently in the US Government Patented Process and is protected internationally under the Paris Convention for the Protection of Industrial Property.
Natural pet nutrition for whole body health.
Biochemistry & Naturopathic Methodology = Healthy Pets!
Unlike many pet foods on the market today, Mulligan Stew is a patent-pending formula developed by a biochemist and naturopathic healer. Developed from sound scientific principals, Mulligan Stew promotes:
- Optimal cellular health for longevity
- Tissue detoxification from low-level toxin ingestion
- Proper bowel motility and cleansing
- A high protein, low fat diet
Cells and DNA
All living creatures are made up of millions of cells. The most important part of a cell is the nucleus or the "cellular brain". Inside the nucleus are the building blocks of life called DNA. DNA tells each cell what specific role it plays in the body.
Antioxidants
Fortunately, compounds called antioxidants help to break down free radicals and toxins in the body. ANTIOXIDANTS ARE FOUND IN COMBINATIONS OF CERTAIN HEALTHY FOODS!
Free Radicals
Cells are attacked by toxic molecules called free radicals, (cigarette smoke, environmental pollutants, and chemical preservatives in food & water, are examples). These free radicals attack the cells causing premature cell death.
Telomeres - Protective End Caps
To help protect the uniqueness of the DNA, nature created a protective cap called a telomere. Each time a cell replicates, a piece of the telomere is lost. One theory of aging suggests the loss of the telomeres increases the cell’s vulnerability to toxins and contributes to cellular death.
Synergistic Ingredients
Mulligan Stew’s patented ingredients work together to devour the pollutants, free radicals and toxins from your pet’s body. And, together with brown rice, cabbage & horseradish, this powerful super-formula also provides effective bowel motility and cleansing.
