Raw Feeding Research an Update

This has been confirmed in research presented to the conference by a Finish Group led by  Anna Hielm-Björkman  DVM, PhD in Finland  When a breeding bitch is fed a raw diet and her puppies are fed raw for the first few months of life the incidence of Canine Atopic dermatitis is 3 times 300% less likely to occur.

Raw Feeding Dr Nick Thompson's Webinar

Need more information then you could do worse than purchase this webinar by Nick Nick Thompson BSc.(Hons) Path.Sci., BVM&S, VetMFHom, MRCVS has been a vet for 27 years . In the mid 90’s it suddenly struck him how ridiculous it was to expect health for life from dogs when feeding uniform processed kibble – remember the old adage about hospital nutrition, and that vaguely resembles real food! In this Webinar, Nick takes us through why he hates kibble. It’s a long and daunting list, not just a rant at big food corporations. He discusses: Why uniform diets are unnatural Why AAFCO and FEDIAF guidelines are incomplete and inappropriate to raw food Why high carb diets are dangerous Why grain free diets are no better Why kibble is dangerous Why raw food is safer It’s a fast and furious rollercoaster of facts, figures and food. And nutrition products derived from food. Hang on to your hats.  This is a recording, there will be no opportunity to ask questions. Buy Webinar £20.00
