A Tribute to Bronx Butler(May 20th2003-Feb22nd 2016)
During my career as a veterinarian and a
clinical nutritionist, certain clients and their pets have played a significant
role in changing my thoughts on the role of nutrition in health and the quality
of life. Veterinary therapeutic diets claim to give the veterinarian an
instant “scientifically proven” way to nutritionally manage a particular
disease. All the controversy surrounding the purity and safety of many of the
major ingredients, the integrity of the suppliers, and the marketing strategies
of the manufacturer brings into question the true nature of the science behind
many of these diets sold to the pet owners.
