If he tells me to stop I will. |
I thought because Callie was a picky eater and has always eaten less much less then the recommended amount that I should give her a vitamin. But the last two years she has gotten the big guns of blood tests and everything but her thyroid has been fine so obviously even with what little she gets she is still getting everything she needs. Vets are not as studied in nutrition as a vet nutritionist so that might be your best bet instead of asking the vet if you are worried. Callie does take Omega 3 for her skin recommended by her vet as well as goats milk supplement for her tummy. But no multivitamin heck even I don't take one. There have also been a study that to many of certain antioxidants can lead to cancers but heck everything does that lol.
