Who formulates the recipes that the Nutrition Support Service provides?
Recipes are formulated by veterinary nutrition residents under the guidance of faculty members of the Nutrition Support Service. Faculty members are board certified veterinary nutrition specialists. These individuals are veterinarians with additional training in the field of veterinary nutrition. They use their expertise and clinical experience to review the specific history of each patient to make custom recommendations for the patient. Even when very similar nutritional concepts may be used for different patients, plans are refined to meet the patient’s specific caloric needs and ingredient preferences.
