The Philosophy Behind PET | TAO Harmony Limited Ingredient Dog Food

With turkey as the primary protein and carefully chosen components to minimize reactions, it's tailored to provide relief and support for your dog from the inside out.


The Eastern Food Therapy Perspective

In Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM), the recommendation of turkey aligns with Eastern Food Therapy principles. According to TCVM, different foods have distinct energetic properties that can affect the body's balance of Qi (energy). 

Turkey is also energetically balancing and has properties for supporting the body's overall well-being. In the context of TCVM, the emphasis is on maintaining a harmonious balance of energy in the body to promote health and prevent imbalances that may contribute to allergies.

Here's how each main ingredient helps from an Eastern perspective:

  • Turkey: In TCVM, turkey is a neutral to slightly warming protein that nourishes the spleen and stomach meridians. It's a good source of Qi (vital energy) and Blood, essential for overall health and immunity. By providing easily digestible protein, turkey can help strengthen the body and alleviate allergy symptoms.
  • Carrots: Carrots are energetically neutral and benefit the Liver and Lung meridians in TCVM. They help regulate Qi circulation and soothe Liver Qi stagnation, which practitioners often associate with allergic reactions. Carrots also support the Lung function, which is crucial for respiratory health and immune function.
  • Celery: Celery is cooling and can clear heat from the body in TCVM. It benefits the Stomach and Bladder meridians, helping to promote digestion, reduce inflammation, and detoxify the body. Celery's cooling properties can also help alleviate symptoms of heat-related allergies, such as itching and inflammation.
  • Green beans: Green beans are energetically neutral and are beneficial for the Spleen and Kidney meridians in TCVM. They support the digestive system, strengthen Qi, and promote fluid metabolism. By nourishing the Spleen and Kidney, green beans help improve nutrient absorption and eliminate dampness, which can exacerbate allergic symptoms.
  • Broccoli: Broccoli is slightly cooling and benefits the Lung and Stomach meridians in TCVM. It helps clear heat and toxins from the body, reduce inflammation, and promote detoxification. Broccoli's rich antioxidants and anti-inflammatory properties benefit dogs with allergic reactions, particularly those involving skin and respiratory issues.
  • Spinach: Spinach is cooling and nourishing in TCVM, benefiting the Liver and Kidney meridians. It helps nourish Yin, Blood, and fluids while clearing heat and detoxifying the body. Spinach's high levels of antioxidants and vitamins support immune function and reduce inflammation, making it helpful for managing allergy symptoms.
In TCVM, the goal is to address the underlying imbalances contributing to allergic reactions while supporting the body's natural ability to heal and maintain balance.

From a TCVM perspective, incorporating the above ingredients into a dog's diet can help promote overall health and alleviate symptoms associated with allergies and digestive challenges.

The Western Nutritional Science Perspective

Western veterinary medicine often recommends turkey for dogs with allergies because it's less likely to cause a reaction than other proteins. While any protein can potentially trigger allergies in some dogs, turkey is generally less allergenic than other meats. This may be due to its unique protein structure or lower histamine content, making it a safer option for dogs prone to allergies.

Here's how each main ingredient helps from a Western perspective:
  • Turkey: Turkey is less likely to trigger allergic reactions than more common proteins like beef or chicken. It's also generally easier for dogs to digest.
  • Carrots: Carrots are rich in beta-carotene, which can help support immune function. They also provide essential vitamins and minerals like vitamin A and potassium, which can contribute to overall health and wellness.
  • Celery: Celery is a low-allergen food that provides fiber, vitamins (such as K and C), and minerals (like potassium and folate). Its anti-inflammatory properties may help alleviate symptoms associated with allergies.
  • Green beans: Green beans are a good source of fiber and plant-based protein, which can support digestive health and provide sustained energy. They also contain antioxidants that may help reduce inflammation.
  • Broccoli: Broccoli contains vitamins, including C and K, fiber, and antioxidants. These nutrients support the immune system and reduce inflammation, potentially alleviating allergy symptoms.
  • Spinach: Spinach is rich in antioxidants, vitamins (like A, C, and K), and minerals (such as iron and calcium). Its anti-inflammatory properties may help soothe allergic reactions and support overall health.
Overall, the above ingredients provide a balanced mix of nutrients that can support a dog's immune system, promote digestive health, and reduce inflammation, which can benefit dogs with allergies.

  • Are all the Pet Tao formulas considered a full diet or a supplement! I am feeding my Dog Chill but I think I need to try the Harmony Limited Ingredient as my Dog has horrible allergies. Any other suggestions for allergies?

    Thank you for your question! Our vets have not experienced issues feeding all 4 PET | TAO canned formulas as full diets, but since two of them haven't been AAFCO approved for all life stages, those are labeled for intermittent/supplemental feeding only (this applies to Zing and Chill). For peace of mind, you can add a Daily Vitamin to these two diets. Limited Ingredient Harmony and Beef Harmony are full diets for all life stages. Limited Ingredient Harmony along with Complement Immune is a great combination for dogs with allergies. Here's an article with more info about our allergy recommendations: https://pettao.com/10-easy-tips-manage-dog-allergies/

  • Where are all your ingredients sourced and where is the food processed and packed?

    Thank you for your question and your interest in Chinese Medicine! PET | TAO has information about their manufacturing processes in this blog post: https://pettao.com/pet-tao-transparency/.

  • Why did the color of the canned food change from the wet brown color... To a dry white color food??? My dog does not like the new color, is there an issue? Wet brown color 2110N23PTL02 Best by Sept 2022 Dry white color 2419N13PTL02 Best by Dec 2022 PLEASE REPLY BACK ASAP.

    Thank you for your question! This variation in color of PET | TAO products is normal. Color changes in this product depending on whether light or dark meat turkey is used in each batch. Here's an article about the variability in PET | TAO formulas: https://pettao.com/variability-pet-food-can/. However, if your dog doesn't like this batch, we can offer you a full refund. Just email info@tcvmpet.com. Thank you!

  • Do you ship to Alaska.

    Hi there, Judith! Yes, we can ship to Alaska! However, we are unable to provide free shipping with a $99 purchase to Alaska.

  • Hi, The Harmony canned food has 412 kcal/can and suggested amount per day for my dogs weight (45#) is 3 cans. The freeze dried Harmony food has 219 kcal/cup and the suggested feeding amount is 2 2/3 cup to 3 cups a day. 1236 kcal (412 x 3) vs. 657 kcal (219 x 3) is a big calorie difference. Do I need to feed more of the freeze dried than what's listed for a complete meal? Thanks!!

    Thank you for your question!

    There is a wide range in calorie recommendations for dogs: 1x Resting Energy Rate (RER) up to 2xRER. Part of the reason for the variance on the Freeze Dried food recommendation is there is air in each cup of food (between the nuggets). There isn't air when measuring calories in a cup of wet food. We recommend starting by feeding within the range on the label and adjusting as needed (by monitoring your dog's weight and body condition). The amount of food a dog needs is based on individual characteristics such as age, activity, whether they are spayed/neutered, etc.

    Thank you for supporting Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine!
