Research Hub
Deep-dive research reviews on dog health, nutrition, and behaviour. Every claim backed by peer-reviewed science — no marketing fluff, no exaggeration. Just what the evidence actually shows.
Research is conducted and reviewed by Sunny Luthra. Each piece goes through the same process: question → literature review → synthesis → honest conclusions with clear evidence grading.
How We Research
Every piece on this hub is grounded in peer-reviewed literature. We grade the strength of evidence honestly — distinguishing between strong clinical trial data, mechanistic plausibility, and areas where the science is still thin. If a claim is speculative, we say so. If the data is mixed, we show both sides. You will not find marketing dressed up as science here.

Your Dog's Immune System Lives in the Gut
Around 70% of a dog's immune system lives in the gut. What the research really shows about the microbiome, SCFAs, dysbiosis, and where probiotics honestly fit.
Frequently Asked Questions
What kind of research is published on this hub?
Every piece is a structured literature review grounded in peer-reviewed science. We grade evidence honestly — distinguishing between strong clinical trials, mechanistic plausibility, and areas where data is thin. No marketing dressed up as science.
Who writes and reviews the research?
Sunny Luthra conducts and reviews all research. Each piece follows a consistent process: question formulation → literature review → synthesis → honest conclusions with clear evidence grading. When a claim is speculative, we say so.
How often is new research published?
Research is published as it's completed rather than on a fixed schedule. Each deep-dive takes significant time — literature review alone can span dozens of papers. Quality over frequency. Subscribe below or follow us on social media to get notified when new research drops.
Can I suggest a research topic?
Yes. If there's a topic you'd like to see covered — a specific condition, a supplement claim, a breed-specific question — reach out through the WhatsApp group or during a 1-on-1 call. Member questions directly shape the research pipeline.
