EP 51: Is there a Pet Nutrition Emergency? with Dr. Barbara Royal

Dr. Barbara Royal, an integrative veterinarian and founder of the Royal Treatment Veterinary Centers, discusses with Dr. Judy the concept of a "pet nutrition emergency" and the importance of recognizing that common sense and proactive measures can improve pet health.  She shares insights from the “I might be wrong” method of veterinary care and how she recommends rescuing our pets using practical nutrition changes. Dr. Royal emphasizes the dangers of ultra-processed pet foods and the benefits of fresh, whole foods. Listen to her personal experience with a house fire and the fear-driven decisions it highlights. She advocates for a shift in veterinary education to include the causes of health and the importance of questioning conventional practices.  Don't your pets deserve the best when it comes to their health and longevity?  Learn the simple steps that you can take today to improve your pet's health through nutrition.
