Description
Nutrition and Disease Management for Veterinary Technicians and Nurses
A fully updated edition of the student-friendly guide to veterinary nutrition
Diet and nutrition are essential aspects of veterinary care. Proper care and feeding of companion animals can improve health outcomes and help to prevent disease. Meeting the altered dietary needs of a sick animal can facilitate recovery and improve quality of life. For veterinary technicians, nurses, and other veterinary practitioners, a working knowledge of companion animal nutrition is an essential component of overall patient care.
Nutrition and Disease Management for Veterinary Technicians and Nurses offers an accessible, up-to-date introduction to the key concepts and elements of veterinary nutrition. With detailed coverage of the fundamentals of veterinary nutrition in addition to the nutritional management for many common small animal diseases, the third edition incorporates all the essentials of veterinary nutrition and dietary management for veterinary patients of any age or health status.
Readers of the third edition of Nutrition and Disease Management for Veterinary Technicians and Nurses will also find:
- Fourteen new chapters, plus additional species in some chapters
- An added section on prebiotics, probiotics, and synbiotics
- End-of-chapter summaries with multiple-choice questions and case reviews to facilitate use in the classroom
Nutrition and Disease Management for Veterinary Technicians and Nurses is ideal for all veterinary technician students, working veterinary technicians, nurses, and students working towards specialty certification in veterinary nutrition.
