“You are what you eat” is an adage all of us have heard. But have we really listened to its message?  Certain foods can stimulate allergic responses;  avoidance can calm an inflammatory response.  Other food can stimulate or counteract a hyperactive condition without apparent outward indications.  Certain diseases may be aggravated by specific foods in the diet. Likewise, some internal (digestive) and neurological diseases can be quieted by appropriate nutrition.  Food Therapy does not rely on commercial food sources, however this does not mean that you, the owner, will have to make drastic changes to your lifestyle.  At Boulevard Veterinary Hospital, we can examine your pet, diagnose nutritional problems, and suggest a nutrition plan that is appropriate for your pet’s condition.
