Larissa Bilston, Nutritionist

LARISSA BILSTON, ANIMAL NUTRITIONISTLarissa graduated from the University of Melbourne with a Bachelor of Agricultural Science degree with first class honours in the early 1990s. She has travelled throughout Australia and internationally as both a science communicator and animal nutritionist. Larissa has worked in the stock feed industry as an animal nutritionist providing support to the horse, beef, dairy and poultry industries. She is a founding partner of Farmalogic Pty Ltd, a Brisbane-based company producing supportive nutritional supplements for horses, backyard poultry and stud or show cattle. Larissa grew up in regional Victoria and has a lifetime love of horses, dogs, cats and dressage riding. She now lives in Brisbane with her husband and three lovely teenagers and still maintains a menagerie of pets!  Larissa is passionate about helping animal owners make good decisions regarding feeding and welfare. The Equine Vit&Min and Farmalogic range is the culmination of Larissa's belief that horse owners can and should understand more about feeding their horses because the basics are not complicated. She wishes to help them sort out the marketing myths from the scientific facts and provides practical animal feeding and management advice through lectures, clinics, social media and individual consultations.SHOW NOTEShe range for adding leucine post-work is around 10 to 30g/day which can be from a l-leucine supplement or you’d need 100 to 200g of whey protein isolate or hemp powder. We include leucine in with Farmalogic Replenish Electrolytes because it’s logical to give leucine post heavy work when an electrolyte supplement is also required. www.farmalogicglobal.comSupport the show
