Welcome back to Healing Tales! In this episode, I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with the incredible Dr. Chris Bessent, a true trailblazer in holistic veterinary medicine. With over 35 years of experience, Dr. Bessent has transformed the way we think about pet health, merging Eastern and Western medicine to create whole food-based therapeutic diets and herbal solutions that empower pets to heal naturally. We dive into her journey from clinical practice to founding Herbsmith and Medicus Veterinary Diets, and explore why using real, whole foods is so critical for our pets' long-term health.
If you’ve ever wondered how food can truly be medicine for your pets, or why so many traditional prescription diets fall short, you won’t want to miss this conversation. We discuss the challenges of formulating therapeutic diets with whole foods, the importance of species-appropriate nutrition, and how to support pets battling conditions like kidney disease, cancer, and more. Get ready to rethink everything you thought you knew about pet nutrition!
