Article Synopsis
- Quality of Life (QOL) for dogs with cancer is essential when evaluating treatment options, yet research on dietary effects during chemotherapy is limited.
- A controlled clinical trial examined a high-protein, increased-fibre diet with omega-3s for dogs undergoing chemotherapy, comparing it to a control diet over 8 weeks.
- The test diet led to significant QOL improvements, with most metrics showing positive change, but notable statistical significance was mainly observed in the frequency of illness signs, while adverse events were similar across both diet groups, indicating further research is needed.
