I noticed that almost all types of cooking oil (vegetable oil, olive oil, peanut oil, etc) contain some saturated fat. Since saturated fat is known to be a contributor to heart disease, then could you simply remove the saturated fats from the oil to make it healthier?
Sorbitol and xylitol are common sugar alcohols used in gums and gummies. Sorbitol is naturally occurring in fruits in varying amounts, and, in conjunction with fiber, contributes to the medicinal effects of prunes and prune juice.
Ah… I actually go out of my way to avoid sorbitol just because it’s one of the things that’s really toxic for dogs. Not that I’d give them a gummy bear; but if they should get into them while I’m not looking I wouldn’t want it to be something that could kill them.
You should probably spend a bit more time avoiding xylitol then, if that’s your reasoning. Sorbitol isn’t toxic to dogs for the most part. Xylitol on the other hand is.
