In this episode, our resident Nutritional advisor Rowan discusses food intolerances with the super experienced and knowledgeable Holistic Vet Wendy McGrandles.

Notably in this episode we cover the very important differences between food intolerance and a food allergy. Why Animal Healthcare Providers perhaps need to be more careful when discussing these with their clients.

The rise of food intolerances and how intestinal permeability (leaky gut) plays a key role.

We also cover Rowan’s pet peeve, grains in dog food and how he believes this is the doorway to leaky gut and auto immune diseases.

Also discussed are how to tell if your dog has a food intolerance, the top telltale signs and how to test for it using a simple home saliva kit.
