23. Everything You Need to Know about Veterinary Nutrition w/ Emily Michael

1 hour 1 minute

In this episode of The Up-Beet Dietitians, Emily and Hannah are joined by their friend, Emily Michael. Emily M is currently in her final year of education to become a veterinarian. To switch things up, the girls discuss the principles of veterinary nutrition and some of the most common takeaways when it comes to taking care of our furry friends. This episode is full of fun information ranging from the presence of veterinary nutritionists in vet med, from toxic human foods to pets, and the popular debate of boutique diets vs. big pet food (corporate companies). If you own a pet, plan on owning a pet, or love animals, be sure to listen in this week!

About Emily: Emily Michael is a fourth year veterinary student at the University of Illinois College of Veterinary Medicine, class of 2022. Upon graduation she will be working as a small animal general practitioner, hopefully in Seattle, Washington. Aside from a general love of animals, she has a passion for veterinary dentistry and soft tissue surgery. Emily has two gremlins (cats) that keep her busy and help her to review feline anatomy. When she isn’t at school or work, Emily enjoys reading, hiking, bouldering, and playing the ukulele.
