Infos

Applied Veterinary Clinical Nutrition provides current,
clinically relevant nutritional advice intended for use in daily
canine and feline practice. Highly practical, the book
emphasizes solutions for integrating nutrition into clinical
practice, with introductory chapters covering the foundation and
science behind the recommendations and extensive references for
further reading. Written by a group of leading veterinary
nutritionists, Applied Veterinary Clinical Nutrition is a
valuable resource on the principles of animal nutrition and feeding
practices in healthy or diseased dogs and cats.

The book begins with an overview of basic nutrition, energy
requirements, and the basics of product guides, pet foods,
home-prepared diets and dietary supplements. Subsequent
chapters delve into feeding the healthy dog and cat, nutrition for
weight management, and nutritional principles for a variety of
diseases, with the final chapters covering enteral and parenteral
nutrition. Applied Veterinary Clinical Nutrition is a
daily reference for veterinary practitioners, students, and
residents seeking authoritative information on feeding animals.

Rezensionen
