🐾 EPILESPY AND MCT OIL 🐾

We have been extremely grateful to many of our followers for taking part in our clinical studies exploring the impact of including MCT oil in their dog’s diet (either as a supplement or integrated within a specialist kibble diet) and the impacts it has had on their dog’s epilepsy, including seizure frequency/severity, behaviour and cognitive abilities.

We are currently looking for owners (whether they have been part of our studies or not) who previously used or currently use MCT in their dog’s diet to share their experiences with us - this only needs to be a short comment (but can be longer if preferred!), and will help us demonstrate the impact of this research on dogs and their owners.

Please either leave a comment below, or email to [email protected]. Thanks in advance!
