Join us for an eye-opening webinar that delves into canine dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and its possible connection to diet. In the wake of the FDA's alert in 2018, this talk cuts through the hype and hysteria and offers a balanced exploration of the evidence. Learn about the role of taurine in normal heart function and its connection to diet. Drawing parallels with feline taurine-deficiency DCM, we unravel the historical context and discuss dietary (and other) factors that influence taurine status and heart health in dogs. Explore the evidence behind breed predispositions and the impact of body size on taurine production. This webinar also addresses the recent focus on "grain-free" foods and examines the complex relationship between ingredients, food processing, and heart health.
