Supplements are given either as fresh tissue or as tissue extracts in the hope that the supplement contains constituents that will help improve the function of the corresponding organ in the animal. One of the basic concepts of glandular therapy is that the oral ingestion of glandular material of a certain animal gland will strengthen the corresponding dog or cat gland. The result is a broad general effect indicative of improved glandular function. Thus, glandular therapy increases the tone, function, and\/or activity of the corresponding gland.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo Studies Show Glandular Supplements for Pets are Effective?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRadioactive and dye studies have demonstrated that nutrients from a glandular supplement are routinely absorbed intact or only partially degraded, and that these constituents can concentrate in target tissues.

Licorice contains a constituent called glycyrrhizin that has similar properties to the adrenal cortex hormones such as cortisol. Because of this, licorice root displays significant anti-inflammatory effects that can support healthy levels of inflammation* for animals that may be showing symptoms of arthritis or allergies and can act as a safer, natural alternative to steroid drugs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLicorice also acts as a antihepatotoxic that can inhibit injury to the liver due to various toxins and viruses making this formula a good choice in instances of high liver enzymes resulting from acute or chronic hepatitis (inflammation of the liver).

We also do not use wild crafted herbs in our formulas as this practice can damage wild populations of herbs and you do not necessarily know where the herbs are coming from or how they've been grown.

Tinctures are concentrated forms of a plant's constituents that are readily absorbed and utilized by your pet's body. Because your pet may not like the taste of alcohol, we use vegetable glycerin which gives our tinctures a sweet taste your animals will like. Vegetable glycerin is a carbohydrate but is metabolized differently than sugar and does not raise blood sugar levels. It is also an efficient menstruum which extracts valuable constituents from plants and makes them readily available to the body. In addition, we take the extra time and effort to use a low heat process that extracts many more constituents than just soaking in glycerin alone as is done by most other herbal companies. And, of course, the use of \u003cstrong\u003eorganic\u003c\/strong\u003e vegetable glycerin ensures your pet avoids genetically modified ingredients and herbicides in their natural medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633;\"\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUses only Human Grade Ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur products are manufactured using \u003cstrong\u003ehuman grade ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e.

However, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that results can vary as all animals are individuals with different diets, lifestyles and nutritional needs. If your pet is fed a processed kibble pet food, receives excessive booster vaccines every year, flea and tick pesticide treatments every month, is currently using, or has used, a variety of prescription medications, experiencing the benefits of an herbal remedy may require a little more effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the correct dosage?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe general serving size of our herbal extracts for dogs and cats is one ml (using the provided graduated dropper) per 25 lbs of animal weight at a frequency of 2-3 times daily. Detailed information with a servings chart can be found under the Instructions tab on this product page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this herbal extract be used alongside prescription medications?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, the answer to this question is “yes” with some caveats. First, see if there are any contraindications listed in the FAQs question above. Next, we suggest that herbal formulas are given at least two hours away from medications to avoid the potential for interactions. Lastly, since herbs can have a similar effect on the body as a medication prescribed by your veterinarian, your vet should monitor your dog or cat to see if the dosage of any medication needs to be adjusted lower. Don’t adjust the dosages of a medication your pet is using without your vet’s supervision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre their potential side effects?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile this herbal extract is very well tolerated by the majority of dogs and cats, a very small percentage of users may experience mild stomach upset or nausea if they are sensitive to an ingredient in the formula just like they may with any new food. These effects are rare and typically stop shortly after you discontinue use. If your pet has a history of being more sensitive, we recommend starting with 1\/4 of the suggested serving size to see how your pet reacts before using the full suggested serving. If your dog or cat does display symptoms of nausea, don’t panic, just discontinue the herbal extract and allow time for your pet’s stomach to settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the vegetable glycerin used for your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, our glycerin is certified USP organic and is derived from organic sunflower oil or organic flax seed oil. It is not palm-derived (environmentally damaging) or soy-derived unlike most glycerin used by others in the pet market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the herbs used in your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, all of the herbs used in our formulas are certified USDA organic. There is a significant additional expense in using USDA organic herbs compared with conventional herbs. However, we feel this is important to get the highest quality herbs from organic farms and suppliers we trust without the potential for contamination with pesticides and herbicides. As far as I am aware, we are the only pet supplement company that uses 100% USP organic glycerin and USDA organic herbs in their herbal formulas for dogs and cats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I store this herbal formula?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur herbal extracts can be stored out of direct sunlight and away from heat on the kitchen countertop or in a cabinet. Refrigeration can be used if the extract is going to be stored for a longer period of time because it can extend the shelf life, but it is not necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the herbal extract have an expiration date?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe \"Best by\" date can be found on the bottom of the bottle using a label. If the label falls off feel free to contact us and we will know from your order date what the “Best by” date is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it usually take to see results?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, you should start noticing some sort of results within a few days. Continue providing the herbal extract to your dog or cat for at least one month to get a good idea as to whether this particular herbal formula is working for your pet. The answer to this question will be influenced by two considerations. The first is the vitality and lifestyle of the dog or cat. Some animals have a stronger vitality and therefor a better response to herbal extracts. Some dogs and cats also have better diets and less exposure to toxins and chemicals from over-vaccination or medications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother consideration is whether you have selected the correct herbal formula for your dog or cat. If you don’t see improvement in a month’s time please contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can discuss what you are trying to accomplish and make sure you have the correct herbal extract or other supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLastly, let me mention that herbal extracts are not pharmaceutical drugs that have a dramatic affect on the body. What we are trying to accomplish with our herbal formulas and other supplements is to provide nutritional support for weak organs\/systems and this can take a little time to accomplish in some cases. Also, as I alluded to earlier, diet and lifestyle play a huge role in the health of your dog or cat. If you continue to feed a poor-quality, processed diet, provide repetitive booster vaccinations or use chemical flea\/tick products, these will work against what we are trying to accomplish and make it more difficult to improve the health of your companion. This is because all of the aforementioned place additional stress on the liver, kidneys and immune system instead of allowing the body to focus its energy on restoring balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my pet is not responding as hoped?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf your dog or cat is not responding to the herbal formula as hoped, then you may increase the herbal extract serving size by 50% and monitor the results. You can also increase the frequency up to three times daily. Reduce back to the lowest effective serving size and frequency as your pet’s condition improves. Feel free to contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can offer you more advice. Our goal is for you to succeed and we will help you to the best of our abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if I have a large dog and\/or on a budget?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe understand that providing a large animal with herbal remedies and natural supplements can be a financial burden. We would suggest to provide what is within your budget and see how that works. For example, if you have a 100 lb dog that would require 5 mls of an herbal extract two to three times daily, figure what is within your budget and try that. It may only be 1 ml or 2 mls two times per day. However, in our experience this is preferable to avoiding the herbal formula entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my vet is not receptive to a more holistic approach using herbal extracts or natural supplements?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately, this is a fairly common occurrence. Try telling your vet that you respect their knowledge and experience but would like to incorporate a more natural approach into your pet's care. If this doesn’t work, and your vet is still unreceptive, then finding a veterinarian that shares your holistic philosophy may be appropriate.

These nutrients are important for supporting a dog or cat's healthy skin, coat, joints, brain, heart, and eye health, as well as an animal's energy level. While research indicates that a ratio of Omega-6 to Omega-3 of 5:1 to 10:1 is optimal for dogs, many pet foods contain primarily Omega-6 fatty acids from vegetable oils. This results in a highly unbalanced ratio dominated by pro-inflammatory Omega-6.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSome pet diets may include Omega-3 fatty acids; however, virtually none include satisfactory amounts of the most important Omega-3 fatty acids, EPA and DHA.

In addition, please note the migratory path of Pacific Salmon - it takes them right off the Japanese coast and Fukushima radiation. Regardless of how far out each salmon species ventures into the Pacific, each fish hitches a ride back to its home rivers and spawning grounds on the North Pacific current, the same one pulling the nuclear waste eastward.

Because your pet may not like the taste of alcohol, we use vegetable glycerin which gives our tinctures a sweet taste your animals will like. Vegetable glycerin is a carbohydrate but is metabolized differently than sugar and does not raise blood sugar levels. It is also an efficient menstruum which extracts valuable constituents from plants and makes them readily available to the body. In addition, we take the extra time and effort to use a low heat process that extracts many more constituents than just soaking in glycerin alone as is done by most other herbal companies.

The safe use of herbs and plant extracts has a long history dating back thousands of years, while modern pharmaceutical drugs - mass-produced, chemically synthesized medications - have only experienced widespread acceptance since the mid 1900’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this herbal formula actually work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe wouldn’t be in business for the last two decades with thousands of positive reviews if our herbal formulas didn’t work for dogs and cats. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that results can vary as all animals are individuals with different diets, lifestyles and nutritional needs. If your pet is fed a processed kibble pet food, receives excessive booster vaccines every year, flea and tick pesticide treatments every month, is currently using, or has used, a variety of prescription medications, experiencing the benefits of an herbal remedy may require a little more effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the correct dosage?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe general serving size of our herbal extracts for dogs and cats is one ml (using the provided graduated dropper) per 25 lbs of animal weight at a frequency of 2-3 times daily. Detailed information with a servings chart can be found under the Instructions tab on this product page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this herbal extract be used alongside prescription medications?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, the answer to this question is “yes” with some caveats. First, see if there are any contraindications listed in the FAQs question above. Next, we suggest that herbal formulas are given at least two hours away from medications to avoid the potential for interactions. Lastly, since herbs can have a similar effect on the body as a medication prescribed by your veterinarian, your vet should monitor your dog or cat to see if the dosage of any medication needs to be adjusted lower. Don’t adjust the dosages of a medication your pet is using without your vet’s supervision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre their potential side effects?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile this herbal extract is very well tolerated by the majority of dogs and cats, a very small percentage of users may experience mild stomach upset or nausea if they are sensitive to an ingredient in the formula just like they may with any new food. These effects are rare and typically stop shortly after you discontinue use. If your pet has a history of being more sensitive, we recommend starting with 1\/4 of the suggested serving size to see how your pet reacts before using the full suggested serving. If your dog or cat does display symptoms of nausea, don’t panic, just discontinue the herbal extract and allow time for your pet’s stomach to settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the vegetable glycerin used for your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, our glycerin is certified USP organic and is derived from organic sunflower oil or organic flax seed oil. It is not palm-derived (environmentally damaging) or soy-derived unlike most glycerin used by others in the pet market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the herbs used in your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, all of the herbs used in our formulas are certified USDA organic. There is a significant additional expense in using USDA organic herbs compared with conventional herbs. However, we feel this is important to get the highest quality herbs from organic farms and suppliers we trust without the potential for contamination with pesticides and herbicides. As far as I am aware, we are the only pet supplement company that uses 100% USP organic glycerin and USDA organic herbs in their herbal formulas for dogs and cats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I store this herbal formula?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur herbal extracts can be stored out of direct sunlight and away from heat on the kitchen countertop or in a cabinet. Refrigeration can be used if the extract is going to be stored for a longer period of time because it can extend the shelf life, but it is not necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the herbal extract have an expiration date?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe \"Best by\" date can be found on the bottom of the bottle using a label.

Continue providing the herbal extract to your dog or cat for at least one month to get a good idea as to whether this particular herbal formula is working for your pet. The answer to this question will be influenced by two considerations. The first is the vitality and lifestyle of the dog or cat. Some animals have a stronger vitality and therefor a better response to herbal extracts. Some dogs and cats also have better diets and less exposure to toxins and chemicals from over-vaccination or medications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother consideration is whether you have selected the correct herbal formula for your dog or cat. If you don’t see improvement in a month’s time please contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can discuss what you are trying to accomplish and make sure you have the correct herbal extract or other supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLastly, let me mention that herbal extracts are not pharmaceutical drugs that have a dramatic affect on the body. What we are trying to accomplish with our herbal formulas and other supplements is to provide nutritional support for weak organs\/systems and this can take a little time to accomplish in some cases. Also, as I alluded to earlier, diet and lifestyle play a huge role in the health of your dog or cat. If you continue to feed a poor-quality, processed diet, provide repetitive booster vaccinations or use chemical flea\/tick products, these will work against what we are trying to accomplish and make it more difficult to improve the health of your companion. This is because all of the aforementioned place additional stress on the liver, kidneys and immune system instead of allowing the body to focus its energy on restoring balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my pet is not responding as hoped?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf your dog or cat is not responding to the herbal formula as hoped, then you may increase the herbal extract serving size by 50% and monitor the results. You can also increase the frequency up to three times daily. Reduce back to the lowest effective serving size and frequency as your pet’s condition improves. Feel free to contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can offer you more advice. Our goal is for you to succeed and we will help you to the best of our abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if I have a large dog and\/or on a budget?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe understand that providing a large animal with herbal remedies and natural supplements can be a financial burden. We would suggest to provide what is within your budget and see how that works. For example, if you have a 100 lb dog that would require 5 mls of an herbal extract two to three times daily, figure what is within your budget and try that. It may only be 1 ml or 2 mls two times per day. However, in our experience this is preferable to avoiding the herbal formula entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my vet is not receptive to a more holistic approach using herbal extracts or natural supplements?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately, this is a fairly common occurrence. Try telling your vet that you respect their knowledge and experience but would like to incorporate a more natural approach into your pet's care. If this doesn’t work, and your vet is still unreceptive, then finding a veterinarian that shares your holistic philosophy may be appropriate.

Enzymes from plant sources, many of which are grown in specialized laboratory settings, remain active in environments ranging from the upper stomach to the small intestine where the majority of your dog and cat's digestion occurs. Pancreatin and other animal based enzymes are secreted by the pancreas in the upper part of the small intestine. The pH in this area is generally around 7.0-9.0 and is the only environment in which these enzymes will be active. However, the acidity found in your dog or cat's stomach varies between a pH of 4-5 (in the upper stomach) down to 1-2 (in the lower stomach). The result is that the majority of animal based enzymes, like pancreatin, trypsin and chymotrypsin, will not survive the acidity of the stomach to aid your pet's digestion.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633; font-size: medium;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e An Enzyme Called Peptidase\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur enzyme formula contains Peptidase. This is a specialized protease enzyme that helps to quickly hydrolize proteins from gluten in the stomach. This is preferred because if these proteins are not broken down enough in the stomach, exorphin peptides can be created in the small intestine. Studies show these peptides can be responsible for many of the digestive sensitivities animals and people experience and even behavioral problems in children (maybe some pets also?). This enzyme is especially important for pet foods and treats containing sources of gluten, but helps to digest other proteins as well by further breaking down protein peptides into amino acids - a step not provided by other pet digestive enzyme supplements.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633; font-size: medium;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: medium;\"\u003e No Unhealthy Additives\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur formula is made with all-natural, whole food ingredients.

Free:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFructooligosaccharides, more commonly known as FOS, is a class of simple carbohydrates found naturally in certain plants, such as Jerusalem artichokes, onions, and bananas. Virtually, all of the FOS added to probiotic products in the United States is chemically manufactured. A Japanese process is utilized in turning white, bleached cane sugar, by the action of a fungal enzyme, into FOS - a sugar polymer that our bodies cannot digest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn 1990, Coors Biotech, in an effort to introduce FOS into the food chain of the United States, prepared a GRAS (generally recognized as safe) petition to include FOS as a human food ingredient. As several years of FOS-safe food sales are needed before this approval, the probiotic market was chosen as an easy, nonthreatening way to get the product 'out there.' The health food industry became an ideal test market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe addition of FOS in probiotic products is becoming a common practice. Many probiotic manufacturers claim FOS is beneficial in that it feeds friendly bacteria. Those who manufacture high-quality probiotics, however, do not believe in using FOS. Instead, their products require one important component - the valuable supernatant, which naturally and specifically provides food for the bacteria.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrudent probiotic manufacturers are concerned with the safety issue of FOS. According to a study conducted by the Joint Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) of the Food and Agricultural Organization and World Health Organization (FAO\/WHO), the consumption of FOS may cause intestinal problems, such as bloating, abdominal pain, and copious amounts of gas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThere are a number of additional reasons why some manufacturers of high-quality probiotics do not add FOS to their products. They are:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFOS is manufactured by chemical synthesis. The ingredient is, therefore, not natural, but a chemical additive and may pose toxicological dangers.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFOS is a sugar derivative, therefore, those with a yeast infection should avoid it.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe stability of FOS is poor. The industrial production of purified FOS is a problem and still in the developmental stage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFOS is inert in the mouth and small intestine because it is not digestible (similar to olestra). It is digested in the colon by the bacteria and may, therefore, change the metabolic activity of the colon, resulting in abnormal functions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFOS stimulates the growth of Klebsiella and possibly other pathogenic organisms. In one study, Klebsiella has been associated with the autoimmune disease ankylosing spondylitis.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFOS is known to be species as well as strain specific. In other words, not all beneficial bacteria like the FOS diet.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs always we try to stay informed and do better than our competitors.

Isolated synthetic nutrients, on the other hand, are treated by the body more like medications. This means the body has a harder time utilizing them and the liver and kidneys have to work harder to \"detoxify\" the body and eliminate excesses. While the body is utilizing the majority of nutrients from whole foods, it is doing its best to make use of what it can from synthetic ingredients with much being lost in urine. For example, there are studies that show that natural vitamin E has twice the bioavailability of synthetic (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/9537614\" title=\"Why Natural Vitamin E is Better for Dogs and Cats\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e1\u003c\/a\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut that is not the only reason to supplement your dog or cat with natural, whole foods. Ingesting nutrients in whole food form is considered preferable because of the accompanying consumption of numerous other macro- and micronutrients and phytochemicals, which will provide additional health benefits. An example of this would be antioxidants found in whole foods that studies have shown to be helpful in disease prevention (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC3093095\/\" title=\"Antioxidants Can Help Prevent Disease in Dogs and Cats\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e2\u003c\/a\u003e,\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/8841165\" title=\"Antioxidants From Whole Foods for Cancer Prevention in Dogs and Cats\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e3\u003c\/a\u003e).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMore concerning yet is an editorial co-authored by several doctors and professors that reports conventional supplements are ineffectual at best, and may even be harmful (\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/hub.jhu.edu\/2013\/12\/17\/vitamins-might-be-harmful\/\" title=\"Synthetic Supplements May be Harmful for Your Dog or Cat\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e4\u003c\/a\u003e).

This helps support the health of these systems and provides extra nutrition to help support weak or imbalanced glands.

There are important reasons for this. One is that too much kelp can effect the health of the thyroid gland and should not be consumed every day. And, since our oceans are so polluted, kelp can be very high in heavy metal contaminates like mercury. Concerning ground flax seed, the oils found in this ingredient are very delicate and after they are ground go rancid very quickly when exposed to oxygen. So, when you see this ingredient you can be fairly confident that the oils are rancid and when that is the case they become carcinogens when consumed.

If you feed more than two meals daily then the suggested daily serving should be divided into however many meals you feed daily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eWeight\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eMorning Meal\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eEvening Meal\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 - 5 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/8 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/8 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e6 - 10 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003erounded 1\/8 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003erounded 1\/8 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11 - 15 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e16 - 20 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e21 - 25 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e26 - 30 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e31 -35 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e36 - 40 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1\/2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1\/2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e41 - 45 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/4 of 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/4 of 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e46 - 50 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/4+ of 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3\/4+ of 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e51 - 55 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ejust under 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ejust under 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e56 - 60 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e61 - 65 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e66 - 70 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e71 - 75 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e76 - 80 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e81 - 85 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1 1\/4 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e86 - 90 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e91 - 95 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1 1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eslightly rounded 1 1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e96 - 100 lbs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1 1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003emore rounded 1 1\/2 tsp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026gt;

These imbalances occur because of the many roles the liver plays in an animal's health. Diagnostic testing by a veterinarian can show a liver that is struggling indicated by high liver enzymes Alanine transaminase (ALT) and\/or Aspartate transaminase (AST). This occurs because damaged liver cells leak higher than normal amounts of certain chemicals, including liver enzymes, into the bloodstream, which can result in elevated liver enzymes on blood tests. Often after using our Liver Support formula the levels of these enzymes will come back down into the normal range. Recognizing and removing contributing factors such as unnecessary vaccinations, flea and tick products and liver damaging medications (when possible) greatly benefit this process.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633;\"\u003eWhat are the Roles of the Liver in our Pet's Health?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1).

Medications are also designed to have a symptom suppressing action in line with the principles of allopathic medicine which is to create a diagnoses and then use drugs to suppress symptoms. Using this course of action can never result in true healing and is not really meant to.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633;\"\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlcohol-Free Tincture with ORGANIC Vegetable Glycerin for Animals\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur blend is formulated by a special process using low heat and organic vegetable glycerin. Tinctures are concentrated forms of a plant's constituents that are readily absorbed and utilized by your pet's body. Because your pet may not like the taste of alcohol, we use vegetable glycerin which gives our tinctures a sweet taste your animals will like. Vegetable glycerin is a carbohydrate but is metabolized differently than sugar and does not raise blood sugar levels. It is also an efficient menstruum which extracts valuable constituents from plants and makes them readily available to the body. In addition, we take the extra time and effort to use a low heat process that extracts many more constituents than just soaking in glycerin alone as is done by most other herbal companies. And, of course, the use of \u003cstrong\u003eorganic\u003c\/strong\u003e vegetable glycerin ensures your pet avoids genetically modified ingredients and herbicides in their natural medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633;\"\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUses only Human Grade Ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur products are manufactured using \u003cstrong\u003ehuman grade ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e.

First, see if there are any contraindications listed in the FAQs question above. Next, we suggest that herbal formulas are given at least two hours away from medications to avoid the potential for interactions. Lastly, since herbs can have a similar effect on the body as a medication prescribed by your veterinarian, your vet should monitor your dog or cat to see if the dosage of any medication needs to be adjusted lower. Don’t adjust the dosages of a medication your pet is using without your vet’s supervision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre their potential side effects?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile this herbal extract is very well tolerated by the majority of dogs and cats, a very small percentage of users may experience mild stomach upset or nausea if they are sensitive to an ingredient in the formula just like they may with any new food. These effects are rare and typically stop shortly after you discontinue use. If your pet has a history of being more sensitive, we recommend starting with 1\/4 of the suggested serving size to see how your pet reacts before using the full suggested serving. If your dog or cat does display symptoms of nausea, don’t panic, just discontinue the herbal extract and allow time for your pet’s stomach to settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the vegetable glycerin used for your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, our glycerin is certified USP organic and is derived from organic sunflower oil or organic flax seed oil.

There is a significant additional expense in using USDA organic herbs compared with conventional herbs. However, we feel this is important to get the highest quality herbs from organic farms and suppliers we trust without the potential for contamination with pesticides and herbicides. As far as I am aware, we are the only pet supplement company that uses 100% USP organic glycerin and USDA organic herbs in their herbal formulas for dogs and cats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I store this herbal formula?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur herbal extracts can be stored out of direct sunlight and away from heat on the kitchen countertop or in a cabinet. Refrigeration can be used if the extract is going to be stored for a longer period of time because it can extend the shelf life, but it is not necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the herbal extract have an expiration date?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe \"Best by\" date can be found on the bottom of the bottle using a label. If the label falls off feel free to contact us and we will know from your order date what the “Best by” date is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it usually take to see results?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, you should start noticing some sort of results within a few days. Continue providing the herbal extract to your dog or cat for at least one month to get a good idea as to whether this particular herbal formula is working for your pet. The answer to this question will be influenced by two considerations. The first is the vitality and lifestyle of the dog or cat. Some animals have a stronger vitality and therefor a better response to herbal extracts. Some dogs and cats also have better diets and less exposure to toxins and chemicals from over-vaccination or medications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother consideration is whether you have selected the correct herbal formula for your dog or cat. If you don’t see improvement in a month’s time please contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can discuss what you are trying to accomplish and make sure you have the correct herbal extract or other supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLastly, let me mention that herbal extracts are not pharmaceutical drugs that have a dramatic affect on the body. What we are trying to accomplish with our herbal formulas and other supplements is to provide nutritional support for weak organs\/systems and this can take a little time to accomplish in some cases. Also, as I alluded to earlier, diet and lifestyle play a huge role in the health of your dog or cat. If you continue to feed a poor-quality, processed diet, provide repetitive booster vaccinations or use chemical flea\/tick products, these will work against what we are trying to accomplish and make it more difficult to improve the health of your companion. This is because all of the aforementioned place additional stress on the liver, kidneys and immune system instead of allowing the body to focus its energy on restoring balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my pet is not responding as hoped?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf your dog or cat is not responding to the herbal formula as hoped, then you may increase the herbal extract serving size by 50% and monitor the results. You can also increase the frequency up to three times daily. Reduce back to the lowest effective serving size and frequency as your pet’s condition improves. Feel free to contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can offer you more advice. Our goal is for you to succeed and we will help you to the best of our abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if I have a large dog and\/or on a budget?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe understand that providing a large animal with herbal remedies and natural supplements can be a financial burden. We would suggest to provide what is within your budget and see how that works. For example, if you have a 100 lb dog that would require 5 mls of an herbal extract two to three times daily, figure what is within your budget and try that. It may only be 1 ml or 2 mls two times per day. However, in our experience this is preferable to avoiding the herbal formula entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my vet is not receptive to a more holistic approach using herbal extracts or natural supplements?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately, this is a fairly common occurrence. Try telling your vet that you respect their knowledge and experience but would like to incorporate a more natural approach into your pet's care. If this doesn’t work, and your vet is still unreceptive, then finding a veterinarian that shares your holistic philosophy may be appropriate.

The active constituent curcumin that is found in turmeric has shown promising results in numerous studies to have anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, anti-tumor and immune supporting qualities that enhance weakened immune response while also modulating an over-active immune response as is encountered in autoimmune conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMany outside of the pharmaceutical\/medical industry believe that herbs in their whole food form are the best way to obtain the most benefits from an herb. This segment of the industry supports the use of turmeric root extract, that contains constituents from the whole herb, over curcumin extract, that is often obtained from outside of the US and can be of unknown quality. For this reason we extract all the constituents, including curcumin, from \u003cem\u003eUSDA organic\u003c\/em\u003e turmeric root using USP organic vegetable glycerin so it safe, nutritious and easy to provide to your pet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudies have also shown that curcumin is quickly neutralized by the liver and for this reason is not well utilized by the body.

You may have seen products that use \u003cem\u003eBioPerine™\u003c\/em\u003e that is a trademarked extract to obtain their piperine.

Vegetable glycerin is a carbohydrate but is metabolized differently than sugar and does not raise blood sugar levels. It is also an efficient menstruum which extracts valuable constituents from plants and makes them readily available to the body.

The safe use of herbs and plant extracts has a long history dating back thousands of years, while modern pharmaceutical drugs - mass-produced, chemically synthesized medications - have only experienced widespread acceptance since the mid 1900’s.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes this herbal formula actually work?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe wouldn’t be in business for the last two decades with thousands of positive reviews if our herbal formulas didn’t work for dogs and cats. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t mention that results can vary as all animals are individuals with different diets, lifestyles and nutritional needs. If your pet is fed a processed kibble pet food, receives excessive booster vaccines every year, flea and tick pesticide treatments every month, is currently using, or has used, a variety of prescription medications, experiencing the benefits of an herbal remedy may require a little more effort.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat is the correct dosage?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe general serving size of our herbal extracts for dogs and cats is one ml (using the provided graduated dropper) per 25 lbs of animal weight at a frequency of 2-3 times daily. Detailed information with a servings chart can be found under the Instructions tab on this product page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this herbal extract be used alongside prescription medications?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, the answer to this question is “yes” with some caveats. First, see if there are any contraindications listed in the FAQs question above. Next, we suggest that herbal formulas are given at least two hours away from medications to avoid the potential for interactions. Lastly, since herbs can have a similar effect on the body as a medication prescribed by your veterinarian, your vet should monitor your dog or cat to see if the dosage of any medication needs to be adjusted lower. Don’t adjust the dosages of a medication your pet is using without your vet’s supervision.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre their potential side effects?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile this herbal extract is very well tolerated by the majority of dogs and cats, a very small percentage of users may experience mild stomach upset or nausea if they are sensitive to an ingredient in the formula just like they may with any new food. These effects are rare and typically stop shortly after you discontinue use. If your pet has a history of being more sensitive, we recommend starting with 1\/4 of the suggested serving size to see how your pet reacts before using the full suggested serving. If your dog or cat does display symptoms of nausea, don’t panic, just discontinue the herbal extract and allow time for your pet’s stomach to settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the vegetable glycerin used for your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, our glycerin is certified USP organic and is derived from organic sunflower oil or organic flax seed oil. It is not palm-derived (environmentally damaging) or soy-derived unlike most glycerin used by others in the pet market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the herbs used in your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, all of the herbs used in our formulas are certified USDA organic. There is a significant additional expense in using USDA organic herbs compared with conventional herbs. However, we feel this is important to get the highest quality herbs from organic farms and suppliers we trust without the potential for contamination with pesticides and herbicides. As far as I am aware, we are the only pet supplement company that uses 100% USP organic glycerin and USDA organic herbs in their herbal formulas for dogs and cats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I store this herbal formula?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur herbal extracts can be stored out of direct sunlight and away from heat on the kitchen countertop or in a cabinet. Refrigeration can be used if the extract is going to be stored for a longer period of time because it can extend the shelf life, but it is not necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the herbal extract have an expiration date?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe \"Best by\" date can be found on the bottom of the bottle using a label. If the label falls off feel free to contact us and we will know from your order date what the “Best by” date is.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it usually take to see results?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, you should start noticing some sort of results within a few days. Continue providing the herbal extract to your dog or cat for at least one month to get a good idea as to whether this particular herbal formula is working for your pet. The answer to this question will be influenced by two considerations. The first is the vitality and lifestyle of the dog or cat. Some animals have a stronger vitality and therefor a better response to herbal extracts. Some dogs and cats also have better diets and less exposure to toxins and chemicals from over-vaccination or medications.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnother consideration is whether you have selected the correct herbal formula for your dog or cat. If you don’t see improvement in a month’s time please contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can discuss what you are trying to accomplish and make sure you have the correct herbal extract or other supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLastly, let me mention that herbal extracts are not pharmaceutical drugs that have a dramatic affect on the body. What we are trying to accomplish with our herbal formulas and other supplements is to provide nutritional support for weak organs\/systems and this can take a little time to accomplish in some cases. Also, as I alluded to earlier, diet and lifestyle play a huge role in the health of your dog or cat. If you continue to feed a poor-quality, processed diet, provide repetitive booster vaccinations or use chemical flea\/tick products, these will work against what we are trying to accomplish and make it more difficult to improve the health of your companion. This is because all of the aforementioned place additional stress on the liver, kidneys and immune system instead of allowing the body to focus its energy on restoring balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my pet is not responding as hoped?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf your dog or cat is not responding to the herbal formula as hoped, then you may increase the herbal extract serving size by 50% and monitor the results. You can also increase the frequency up to three times daily. Reduce back to the lowest effective serving size and frequency as your pet’s condition improves. Feel free to contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can offer you more advice. Our goal is for you to succeed and we will help you to the best of our abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if I have a large dog and\/or on a budget?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe understand that providing a large animal with herbal remedies and natural supplements can be a financial burden. We would suggest to provide what is within your budget and see how that works. For example, if you have a 100 lb dog that would require 5 mls of an herbal extract two to three times daily, figure what is within your budget and try that. It may only be 1 ml or 2 mls two times per day. However, in our experience this is preferable to avoiding the herbal formula entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my vet is not receptive to a more holistic approach using herbal extracts or natural supplements?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately, this is a fairly common occurrence. Try telling your vet that you respect their knowledge and experience but would like to incorporate a more natural approach into your pet's care. If this doesn’t work, and your vet is still unreceptive, then finding a veterinarian that shares your holistic philosophy may be appropriate.
