A new webinar has been added to the BSAVA Library to accompany the online BSAVA Guide to Nutrition.

“The essential ingredients of a good nutritional recommendation” is presented by RVN Georgia Woods, one of the editors of the new guide, and covers the key points that need to be considered when offering a nutritional recommendation to a pet owner.

Key points

The webinar’s key points include:

  • evaluation of the current situation
  • the main aims of a nutritional recommendation
  • assessment of evidence quality for diet claims
  • how the recently released BSAVA Guide to Nutrition can help facilitate meaningful conversations with owners regarding diet

Evidence-based

Mrs Woods said: “Nutrition discussions with clients can be challenging, not least given the plethora of diets available for pets.

“This webinar aims to cover the main points to support an evidence-based decision-making process to help vets engage owners in a meaningful discussion about nutrition, and provide guidance on the most suitable diet for their pet.”

Fact sheets

The BSAVA Guide to Nutrition is an independent guide comprising a series of fact sheets for veterinary professionals on four different diet options:

  • commercially manufactured diets
  • grain-free diets
  • home-prepared cooked diets
  • raw diets

Each of these is accompanied by a fact sheet for owners that can be provided as part of the consultation.

Webinar library

The new BSAVA Guide to Nutrition is available exclusively through the BSAVA Library (£25; £15 for BSAVA members).

Mrs Woods’ lecture on “The essential ingredients of a good nutritional recommendation” can be accessed via the BSAVA Webinar Library.
