During the process that Simón lived with cancer, he confirmed that nutrition and the knowledge of what can affect us in our day to day life is essential to slow down or reverse chronic diseases.

"Our pets are fortunate to have our protection and love, but not all of them are so lucky. Many animals right now are suffering to meet the animal protein needs of our society.

"Fortunately, today we have nutritionally complete options, such as v-dog, that allow us to feed and keep our pets healthy without harming others. I also think that it is a duty of all of us who love animals and the planet to minimize the suffering of others and reduce the environmental impact that we produce with our food. The food that our dogs and cats consume produces more than 64 million tons of carbon dioxide a year that's the equivalent of driving more than 13 million cars."
