"I've read online..." Busting the myths around pet nutrition
Welcome to Purina's Bitesized Pet Nutrition Podcast!
In the first episode of this new podcast for vet and pet professionals, we are busting some of the common myths around pet nutrition. From "grain free" to "hypoallergenic" to a discussion on vegetarian and vegan diets, today we're answering some of the most frequent and challenging questions posed.
I'm joined for this podcast by Ellie Groves, Veterinary Technical Manager at Purina UK & Ireland, as we deep dive into pet nutrition.
