why this exists
Built by someone whose own gut broke first.
Some Grub started with Ben's years of unexplained gut trouble, and the slow discovery that most advice (human or dog) is either selling something or scaring you. This hub is the resource we wished existed: evidence first, products only where they genuinely fit.
Meet the food behind it
Everything here is for information, not diagnosis. If your dog is in pain, losing weight, or just obviously not themselves, ring your vet first.
