Since this dis-ease is so common now among our animal companions (esp. but not limited to felines) and there are often many of you on LS dealing with it at any given time, I thought I should post this notice. Final registrations are being taken now for this teleclass, and the cost is only $37. It will take place (via phone) Mon., Nov.17/08, at 8-9:30pm, Central time.
From the Nutrition Education Teleclass Series with Dr. Julie Mayer, DVM, on the ASN [Animal Spirit Healing & Education Network] online network by Carol Shultz, this is a one-night teleclass where you can "Learn How to Holistically Address Kidney & Bladder Disease Concerns for your Animal Companion."
Anyone interested in getting nutritional expertise for these issues can register for the teleclass here.
A brief description of it is as follows:
Dr. Mayer will be discussing kidney and bladder disease.
The disease definitions will be reviewed, as well as the physiological impacts, and food therapies to address the concerns. Insights on Traditional Chinese Medicine and the energetics of food will be incorporated, as well as supplement options and additional resources.
Note: Upon registration, you have an opportunity to submit a question or topic that you would like to discuss. Additional topics from those submitted will be covered in the last portion of the live teleclass.
Please register sufficiently in advance to allow time to review the handouts prior to the class.
