Episode Synopsis

Homemade or commercial—if you’re not meeting energy needs, you’re starving the micros. Vet Dr. Susan Recker breaks down energy requirements, why “feeding less than the bag” makes synthetic-balanced foods micronutrient-deficient, and how to fix DIY diets with Animal Diet Formulator (ADF). We cover common homemade pitfalls (iodine, manganese, vitamin E, choline, zinc), a simple vet checklist, and practical targets for balanced raw or cooked meals.Send us a text🐶 🐱 Nutrition & Holistic Health Consults: https://jessicalfisher.com/product-category/holistic-pet-health-nutrition/ 💜 Follow Jessica on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/thepetparentingreset/📩 Get email notifications for new episodes: https://jessicalfisher.kartra.com/page/tpprnotify
