Canine Nutrigenomics by W. Jean Dodds, DVM & Diana Laverdure Book Summary

Secrets to Feeding Dogs for Optimum Cellular Health and Longevity Revealed in Groundbreaking New Book

Vibrant health begins in the cells. Learn how to transform your dog’s cellular health with the power of nutrigenomics in this ground-breaking new book. Nutrigenomics (a combination of the words nutrition and genome) is the study of how the foods we and our pets eat “speak” to our cells to regulate gene expression, which in turn plays a huge role in determining whether a person or animal will live a life of vibrant health, or one plagued by illness.

Scientists now know that while we can’t change the genes we are born with, we can change how those genes behave, which is exactly what authors W. Jean Dodds, DVM and Diana Laverdure show us how to do in their newest book, Canine Nutrigenomics: The New Science of Feeding Your Dog for Optimum Health from Dogwise Publishing.

Read Canine Nutrigenomics and discover:

• How to tell which foods create optimum gene expression and vibrant health at the cellular level and which foods lead to chronic disease.

• The amazing healing power of functional foods.

• The “Three Keys” to easily creating a foundation diet for your dog based on the principles of nutrigenomics.

• How to use functional ingredients to treat, manage and even reverse a wide variety of chronic canine health conditions.

• The 10 “canine functional superfoods” and how they can supercharge your dog’s health by optimizing his gene expression.

• The signs of a food intolerance/sensitivity and how to stop it in its tracks.

And much more!

You can’t change your dog’s genes, but you can change how those genes behave when you read Canine Nutrigenomics: The New Science of Feeding Your Dog for Optimum Health!

Your dog’s diet “speaks” to his cells!

Nutrigenomics is the new science of how diet affects gene expression at the cellular level, creating vibrant health or chronic disease. Optimum health begins in the cells—and this book shows you how to achieve it for your dog!

Praise for Canine Nutrigenomics

Many dog parents will find longed-for hope when they read how they may have the power to prevent, improve and even resolve many serious canine health conditions. Understanding nutrigenomics and its effects on the genome is the first step, but the authors don’t stop there; they offer sensible solutions for health in every chapter. Chapters on cancer, arthritis, aging, weight control and more, describe in practical terms not only how nutrigenomics can make a difference, but also exactly what to DO about it.

This seminal book, confirming that nutrition is the first medicine, is not just for the health of dogs. It is a major contribution to the health-through-food revolution, which will expand the minds and practices of veterinarians and canine caregivers and should be a required text for all students of veterinary medicine and nutrition.

This wonderful book by Jean Dodds, DVM and Diana Laverdure is the best resource I have ever read on the topic of canine nutrition. It answers all of the questions that a dog parent could possibly have, thoughtfully exploring each of the nutritional elements in a dog’s diet and carefully describing what to feed in order to ensure our dogs receive everything they need for optimum health and longevity.

By reading this book you will learn not only what is in most commercial pet foods, but also what should and should not be there for optimum wellness and to prevent disease based on the new science of nutrigenomics. As a veterinarian who specializes in toxicology, I highly encourage all pet parents to read this book to learn about feeding your dogs with whole food nutrition.
