Nora Lenz - Your Dog’s Dinner Might Be the Problem (and the Cure)

from Soul Touched by Dogs · host Anke Herrmann

What If the Food You Feed Your Dog Is the Root Cause (and the Cure) for Their Illness?In this episode, I’m joined by Nora Lenz, creator of Rotational MonoFeeding (RMF), to explore a radical – and radically simple – idea: that feeding dogs according to their biological needs not only prevents disease but can actually reverse it.Nora’s journey started back in the 80s when she studied human nutrition and discovered the powerful connection between food, health, and emotional well-being. It didn’t take long for her to apply those insights to her own dogs and the results? Nothing short of transformative.We talk about how the pet food industry (and, sadly, often the veterinary system) pushes kibble, chemicals, and confusion – when in fact, the body knows how to heal. It just needs the right conditions.If you’ve ever wondered what’s really in your dog’s bowl and how it might be affecting their health, this episode is a must-listen.🦴 In This Conversation, We Explore:Why mixing meat and plants in one meal disrupts digestion for both dogs and humansWhat “rotational mono feeding” is and how it mimics what wild dogs eat in natureHow a dog’s vibrant health depends on removing the causes of disease – not adding more remediesThe mistake most dog guardians make when transitioning away from kibble – and how to do it safelyWhy symptoms like skin issues, digestive problems, or even kidney disease can often be resolved through diet aloneHow Nora’s feeding model turns conventional wisdom upside down – and empowers you to stop relying on the sick pet industry💬 Favorite Quote:“The beauty is, once you remove the cause, the body does the healing. You don’t need substances. You don’t need remedies. You just need to get out of the way.” – Nora Lenz00:00 Introduction to the Podcast00:24 Guest Introduction: Nora's Journey with Dogs01:34 The Importance of Dog Nutrition03:21 Understanding Rotational Mono Feeding (RMF)04:22 Common Misconceptions About Dog Aging and Disease15:18 Transitioning Your Dog to a Healthier Diet24:58 The Role of Vets and the Pet Food Industry33:27 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsAbout Nora LenzNora Lenz is the creator of Rotational MonoFeeding (RMF), a feeding philosophy that mirrors the natural diet of wild dogs and prioritizes biologically appropriate nutrition to prevent and reverse disease. She began her journey in the 1980s, studying human nutrition, and soon turned her attention to the animals in her care.Through her website, book, and vibrant Facebook community, Nora shares powerful – and often eye-opening – insights into how food affects health and why the standard pet care advice might be doing more harm than good. Her mission? To give dog and cat guardians the tools to step away from dependency on medication, vet bills, and commercial food… and reclaim true health for their animals.Learn More & Connect with Nora📚 Get Nora’s book + learn more: https://www.RotationalMonoFeeding.comJoin the RMF Community: RMF Facebook Group + Lead MagnetYouTube & Social: Just search “Rotational MonoFeeding” or find her on FacebookAs always, to find out all about Soul Touched by Dogs, go to👉 https://soultouchedbydogs.com
