Discover a more personalized way to think about your pet’s food. Eastern Food Therapy for Pets is a free PET | TAO ebook introducing Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) food energetics for dogs and cats, with food charts, practical examples, and sample slow-cooker recipes.
If you’ve wondered why a holistic veterinarian might recommend cooling foods for one pet and warming foods for another, this guide offers an approachable starting point. Explore how traditional food therapy considers the whole animal, not just the ingredients in the bowl, and prepare for a more informed conversation about your pet’s nutritional needs.

In TCVM, food selection considers traditional energetic qualities alongside the pet’s individual pattern. This guide introduces neutral feeding, cooling approaches associated with Yin nourishment, warming approaches discussed for Qi deficiency, and Blood-building food examples.
These examples help explain the philosophy, but they are not a substitute for a veterinary assessment. A TCVM-trained veterinarian can interpret your pet’s pattern and help connect food-therapy principles with their medical history and nutritional needs.
The feeding chart below illustrates PET | TAO’s food-therapy approach for dogs. Use it as a conversation starter with your veterinarian, not as a diagnostic tool. The ebook and chart include older formula examples and are not a current product-availability guide.

Eastern food therapy is a branch of TCVM that considers foods through traditional energetic qualities, including warming, cooling, and neutral classifications. The guide explains how these concepts relate to Yin-Yang, the Five Elements, and individual patterns of balance.
Yes. It includes separate canine and feline sections with food charts and sample diets for balanced pets and Yin, Qi, and Blood deficiency patterns. Cats and dogs have different nutritional needs, so their recipes and supplements should not be treated as interchangeable.
Have them reviewed by your veterinarian first. The sample recipes and supplement amounts are educational examples from 2015, not a personalized feeding plan or confirmation of nutritional completeness. Your veterinarian can help choose the appropriate formula and amount to feed based on your pet's current condition.
