Nutritional medicine with Dr Geraldine Blanchard - a podcast by Pure Animal

Dr Geraldine Blanchard has had a passion for animal nutrition from when she graduated as a vet in 1994. Geraldine believes that nutrition is a way of life for both humans and animals and quotes Hippocrates: "Nutrition is your first medicine". We discuss using nutrition as part of preventative medicine, taking a personalised approach to nutrition, and using nutrition in a clinical setting for common disease processes. 

Topics covered include:

• How vets and owners can relate subtle signs and symptoms to nutritional deficiencies 


• Nutrition as a long term process, and must be considered as so for treatment success and client expectation management 


• The challenge of diagnosing nutritional deficiencies 


• How Geraldine uses zucchini in her weight loss plans and more weight loss tips for dogs 


• Practical ways to ensure nutrition plays a major part in treatment plans for renal disease, skin disease and digestive disorders 


• How to improve digestion by focusing on food quality and adding vegetables to the diet 


• Geraldine's tips for maximising treatment plan adherence
