Abstract

I would like to talk to you today about the interaction between disease and nutrition. So that we all have the same basis of discussion-semantics is one of the problems that occurs between veterinarians and consulting nutritionists-let's talk a little bit about synergism, antagonism, primary and secondary malnutrition. The simplest definition of malnutrition is too much or too little of a required nutrient. By that definition I am malnourished by about 40 pounds.
