Thank you, that section was a weak link in the article and I replaced the paragraph with a brief summary of an article about vegan diets for a sample of beagles.
If I were a determined skeptic, I wouldn’t accept any of these results, but I’m not, because my prior is that dogs, like us, are omnivorous generalists who can thrive on a huge variety of diets.
I do think that on average, supplementing with bivalves will be good for their health, as it would be good for many vegans as well.
It sounds like your true argument is a first-principles belief in the power of omnivorism. I think that’s a fine reason to believe something, but you should say that instead of science washing with low quality studies[1].

I feel like I put in my time checking the wikipedia studies and haven’t read the new beagle study
