Last month we discussed the importance of a proper diet for your pet in maintaining their optimum health. This month we will talk about safe alternatives to pet medications. Our pets become sick due to a toxic build up in their body. This occurs mainly from a clogged digestive tract due to poor nutrition. It can also be influenced by exposure to household chemicals or fertilizers you may use on your yard.
When our pets do become sick we usually will take them to our local veterinarian for help. Unfortunately, veterinarians have only drugs to offer our beloved pets. The problem with these drugs are that they add toxicity to an already toxic and weak animal.
What most people don't realize is that there is an alternative to pet medicine. In recent years, natural health alternatives have gained momentum. This is mainly due to three factors. First, pet medicine alternatives are safe and non-toxic. Second, the increased effectiveness of the natural products. And lastly, the costs involved are usually much less than that of traditional pet medicine.
However, not all alternative pet medicine are created equal. Lisa S. Newman N.D, Ph.D. and owner of Azmira Holistic Animal Care states " In over twenty years of research and consulting, I have come across one sure fact that has never been proven wrong.: the higher the quality of therapeutic ingredients you can provide in a concentrated, easy-to utilize state, the quicker, deeper and more long-term the results will be. Once I began working with specific brands of natural products and remedies, I realized I achieved greater responses and overall success. I clearly saw the step-by-step Lifestyle approach develop because of the consistent results I could observe that I attributed to these specific remedies and applications. Unfortunately, not all companies can be trusted to maintain higher standards. This gives us unreliable results on which to base the progress of true healing. I suffered the consequences of this with three of the top companies I had been recommending for years! In addition, I found results varied greatly when clients chose products on their own or substituted ingredients and I didn't appreciate the results: I took my consulting work and the lives that were affected very seriously! They say things change by desperation or inspiration-I have experienced a little of both. This was a dilemma I solved by formulating AZMIRA HOLISTIC ANIMAL CARE supplements, remedies and diets after a particularly unsettling experience regarding product reliability."
In closing, Dr. Newman has created a highly effective, concentrated, non-toxic pet medicine alternative line that covers a variety of ailments from allergies to bladder infections. These natural alternatives can be helpful for pet owners who want another option for their pet's specific condition. Like always, we support our veterinarians and their diligent work to help our pets. Once a diagnosis has been established by our veterinarian we can now have the option of treating our pets with a natural health alternative.
