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.
