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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Licorice contains a constituent called glycyrrhizin that has similar properties to the adrenal cortex hormones such as cortisol.

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.

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\u003e\nOur herbal extracts can be stored out of direct sunlight and away from heat on the kitchen countertop or in a cabinet.

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.

Non-oligodynamic silver is silver that has lost its positive electrical charge and is therefore nothing but \"dead-weight\" silver. Non-oligodynamic silver is devoid of any known positive bioactivity, and is in fact the only form of silver compound known to generate risks to higher organisms. Natural-Immunogenics Corp. has taken great care in establishing the safety of its colloidal silver hydrosol products by going the extra mile of insuring all batches of its products contain the purist silver particles which are: (1) extremely low in concentration (i.e., 10 ppm to 23 ppm), (2) predominantly oligodynamic in nature, (3) extremely small in size to help facilitate its elimination once it has served its biologically useful purpose, and (4) devoid of salts or any other contaminants.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: start;\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" data-mce-style=\"text-align: start;\"\u003e\u003cimg style=\"margin: 0pxpx 0pxpx 0pxpx 0pxpx; float: none;\" alt=\"Colloidal Silver Hydrosol for Dogs and Cats\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0579\/5643\/4070\/files\/silver-1200x1200_480x480.jpg?v=1634766209\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\" width=\"480x480\" height=\"480x480\" data-mce-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0579\/5643\/4070\/files\/silver-1200x1200_480x480.jpg?v=1634766209\" data-mce-style=\"margin: 0pxpx 0pxpx 0pxpx 0pxpx; float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633; font-size: 18pt;\"\u003eWhat is Colloidal Silver for Dogs and Cats?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eColloidal silver is the generic term for all forms of silver marketed as dietary supplements and containing substances that include particles in suspension. If you have been researching using silver for your dog or cat you may be more confused than ever. This is because there are a multitude of silver products that use terms such as colloidal silver, true colloidal silver, ionic silver, silver hydrosol etc. Complicating matters further, some silver supplements make varying claims and may even provide misinformed or misleading information to the consumer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18pt; color: #cc6633;\"\u003eWhat does Bio-Active Silver Hydrosol do for Dogs and Cats?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStudies done on silver have shown it to have broad antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal properties. These qualities can provide dogs and cats with a safe and natural way to support their immune systems*. Research suggests that silver works by attaching to proteins on the cell walls of an organism and damaging the cell membranes. This allows silver ions to pass into the cells, where they can interfere with the organism’s metabolic processes and damage its DNA, leading to the cell’s death. Further into this article we will go into the importance of a colloidal silver’s particle size, purity and concentration of positively charged ions in making the immune enhancing benefits of silver safe and effective.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 18pt; color: #cc6633;\"\u003eWhat is the Dosage of Bio-Active Silver Hydrosol for Dogs and Cats?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou'll find usage suggestions for this supplement in the \"\u003cem\u003eInstructions\u003c\/em\u003e\" tab above.

Some consumers get concerned that silver may be a “heavy metal”, a term generally meant to refer to metals that are considered toxic, even in low doses (e.g., mercury). Technically, silver (Ag) is listed as a “transition metal” which includes nutritional minerals you would be familiar with such as chromium, copper, zinc and iron. These are nutrients considered essential to human health, in the proper form and dose. The risks and toxicity that have been connected to silver, such as argyria (turning blue), are extremely rare and associated with the consumption of poor-quality or homemade colloidal silver products used at unsafe concentrations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA silver supplement with the smallest, positively charged particle size in a low concentration (10 to 23 ppm bioactive silver) will be the safest and most effective. The EPA has established 350 micrograms per day as a safe daily oral reference dose for silver using a 70-year study performed on adults of an average 150 lbs (70Kg) in weight. Use your dog or cat’s weight to figure the safe daily dosage for them which is usually found on the colloidal silver packaging.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633; font-size: 18pt;\"\u003eWhere to Buy Bio-Active Silver Hydrosol for Your Dog or Cat?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere at \u003cem\u003eThe Pet Health and Nutrition Center\u003c\/em\u003e would be a great place to start!

Cellulase enzymes aid in the total digestion of plant-based foods and increase the nutritional value of those foods. The important reason for inclusion in this formula is to reduce the proliferation of Candida albicans. Candida is a fungus naturally occurring in the body, but which can over grow following the use of antibiotics and inhabit the upper intestines and skin. Being a fungus it has an external shell mad of chitin in part being comprised of cellulose. The cellulase enzyme in this formula will help to digest this outer shell killing the fungi while releasing less toxins than would be created if a yeast killing herb or other product was used.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGlucoamylase\u003c\/strong\u003e - This enzyme has been shown to aid in easing the negative effects of irritable bowel syndrome and other common symptoms as nausea, vomiting, gas, heartburn, bloating and loss of appetite. Studies also show that glucoamylase can also lower autoimmunity responses. In the case of autoimmune diseases, antigens and antibodies, when not cleared out over time, can create tissue damage in the body. This can lead to diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus and some types of kidney disease.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBeta-Glucanase\u003c\/strong\u003e - This enzyme represents a group of carbohydrate enzymes which break down glycosidic bonds within beta-glucan. These glucans also create up to 60% of the cell wall of many forms of fungal organisms such as\u003cem\u003e Candida albicans\u003c\/em\u003e. Animals suffering from an overgrowth of the candida fungus (a condition also known as candidiasis) may benefit from taking beta-glucanase. Candida albicans overgowth is often notoriously difficult to eliminate because of its inherent ability to resist antimicrobial agents. Sadly, many dogs and cats are treated for digestive problems and infections with prolonged and high-dose antibiotics. This can actually increase Candida’s ability to become even more antibiotic-resistant. Beta-glucanase is an enzyme that has been found to be particularly useful in reducing the coating or biofilm of Candida that can grow in the digestive tract.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNattokinase\u003c\/strong\u003e - \u003cspan\u003eThe organism that produces nattokinase was originally discovered in a fermented soy food called natto, a traditional fermented soybean food that is very popular in Japan. Nattokinase is a powerful proteolytic enzyme that has been shown in studies to help prevent the build up of fibrin in blood vessels that occurs as we age. Helps to maintain healthy blood pressure and because of its fibrinolytic activity is believed to reduce the chance of heart attack and stroke.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCatalase\u003c\/strong\u003e - Catalases are perhaps the single most efficient enzymes found in the cells of an animal's body. These enzymes act to protect cells, counteracting and balancing the continual production of hydrogen peroxide which, in excess, has been associated with premature greying of the hair. Catalase is currently being studied for its applications on extending life span and vitality. Research scientists from the University of Washington in Seattle conducted a lab study on rats and the augmentation of natural catalase in their bodies. By supplementing with increased catalase, the life span of these laboratory rats increased by almost 20%. This is the equivalent of nearly 25 human years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRutin\u003c\/strong\u003e - A good source of quercetin with strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Rutin also has the ability to chelate metal ions thereby reducing the production of free radicals.

Having said that, when it comes to proteolytic enzymes, most of them (other than pepsin) work best in a slightly acidic to slightly alkaline environment. Optimizing that environment is important for maximizing the beneficial effects of our formula.

That is why the calcium\/phosphorous ratio is so important)\u003c\/em\u003e, dairy, cooked grains, or processed foods, then the diet is indeed too acid forming.

It may be the maintenance dose or your dog may need to be on double the maintenance dose to relieve his discomfort. A mistake people often make is to give half the dosage for one reason or another. You do not want to do that here, but instead give enough to notice your pet is feeling better and then you can reduce the dosage as desired paying close attention to the stiffness or discomfort your animal is experiencing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor example your doge is on two enzymes twice per day. You try to reduce the dosage to one in the morning and two at night. Within a day or two you notice your dog is looking a little stiffer going up stairs and realize the need for four enzymes daily because three was not enough. These enzymes are water soluble and excesses are removed by the body in 24-48 hrs so they are very safe. Feel free to contact us if you need help with a dosage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is very important to give these enzymes on an empty stomach. If this is not done they will begin to digest food in the stomach and be less effective for the work in the GI tract and blood stream that we want them to do. Provide systemic enzymes to your dog first thing in the morning as you awake and then immediately before bedtime. For more intense use another dose can also be given in the afternoon. You want to use as little treat as you can to get your animal to take the enzyme.

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.

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 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.

Instead, we prefer to be on the safe side and only obtain herbs from USDA certified organic farms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Natural Ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNatural ingredients are going to be gentler on your animal's body when compared to synthetic chemical ingredients or medications.

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.

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.

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. Research has shown that a substance called piperine extracted from black pepper produces an effect called \u003cem\u003ebioenhancement \u003c\/em\u003ethat helps to increase the absorption of nutrients like curcumin. This addition makes the use of turmeric extracts much more effective for your dog or cat. You may have seen products that use \u003cem\u003eBioPerine™\u003c\/em\u003e that is a trademarked extract to obtain their piperine. We instead use organic black peppercorns and feel this is the best and safest way to provide piperine to your dog or cat.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"padding: 1em; border: 1px solid #cc6633;\"\u003eRecently, \u003cem\u003eThe Pet Health and Nutrition Center\u003c\/em\u003e has begun using a new technology to extract our glycerite herbal remedies called \u003cem\u003eUltrasonic Botanical Extraction\u003c\/em\u003e. To the best of our knowledge, at this time, we are the only pet supplement company using this modern technology to create the herbal remedies our clients use for their dogs and cats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis modern technology uses ultrasound waves to break apart plant matter to release active, beneficial plant constituents into the solvent (in our case USP organic glycerin). We have used independent, third-party testing to ensure our new herbal remedies will be as effective as our prior method of extraction. The results exceeded our expectations and showed an \u003cstrong\u003eincrease of 10X\u003c\/strong\u003e in the amount of active plant constituents using this modern botanical extraction method.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you may notice…\u003c\/strong\u003e First, let me make clear that our herbal formulas are the same and have not changed.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
