Thanks for that, Cherie.  Have you purchased this e-book?  I have to admit, I'm always intrigued to learn more about alternative kinds of treatment, but the website is kind of a 'heavy' sell.

 

I'd love hear reviews/feedback.

 

Thanks, Julie

March 1, 2005..........................Issue#007 Andrew Jones,DVM NATURALLY HELPING YOUR PETS IMMUNE SYSTEM Greetings from Nelson BC!! Welcome new subscribers to the 7th issue of Veterinary Secrets! The most effective way to help your pet heal is to stimulate your pet's immune system to heal itself. We have seen a vast increase in the number of chronic pet health diseases, such as allergies, arthritis, and cancer- these diseases don't respond well to conventional medicine. By treating the root of the problem instead of its symptoms, holistic medicine enables our pets to regain and maintain their own health. A holistic veterinarian summed this up with this statement:"Over the past 40 years and 17 generations of dogs and, cats we are seeing tremendous increases in chronic ill health in our pets that was rare back in the early 1960's. Most of these illnesses revolve around breakdown in our pets' immune systems, and include chronic skin/ear allergies, digestive upset, thyroid/adrenal/pancreatic disorders, seizures, gum/ teeth problems, degenerative arthritis, kidney/liver failure, and cancer across all ages and breeds. We are also seeing a record number of behavioral and emotional disorders including alarming and unexplained fears/aggression., as well as difficulty focusing/training and paying attention. The analogy of these compared with escalating immune/behavioral diseases in children is quite disturbing. The two biggest factors in our pets' population health decline over these generations has been the severe overuse of multiple vaccines and nutrient poor and toxin filled commerc ial pet foods. We have also failed to address the underlying cause of disease by only suppressing symptoms with antibiotics, cortisone and related drugs, so the disease progresses and goes deeper." Michael Dym D.V.M. It is our ability to create a really healthy immune system that I think represents the greatest potential gains in health in the world. It is the immune system, after all, which provides humans and animals with the ability to recognize and remember potentially harmful foreign substances such as bacteria and viruses. The immune system allows us to then respond to these threatening invaders in our systems. The body has two principal immune defense systems: humoral and cellular. B-lymphocytes in the liver, spleen, lymph nodes and bone marrow produce plasma cells that in turn produce antibodies in the gamma globulin fraction. These immunoglobulins can potentially recognize huge numbers of antigens. This is the basis of humoral immunity. Humoral immunoglobulins are primarily designed to fight bacterial infections. Lymphocytes that populate the thymus become responsible for cellular immunity. These cells produce structures called lymphokines that mediate delayed hypersensitivity or allergic reactions. They are responsible for rejection of transferred foreign tissue and for the recognition and rejection of tumor cells. The cellular immunity system is responsible for defense against infections due to viruses, fungi and some types of bacteria and cancers. There are many examples of chronic pet health problems related to an overacting or underacting immune system. ALLERGIES Every allergy is a result of the immune system over-reacting to some antigen- ie food protein or house dust mite. CHRONIC VOMITING/DIARRHEA These gastrointestinal conditions can be the result of chronic infection or an over-reacting immune system. URINARY TRACT INFECTIONS For pets that are prone to recurrent bladder infections, there is often a deficient immune function allowing this to happen. CANCER The big C is now very prevalent in the pet health population. It is being seen in younger pets and is now the second most common cause of death of pets. Cancer has numerous suspected causes, but it is the effectiveness of your pets immune system to keep the abnormal cell growth in check that prevents it. SOLUTIONS ANTIOXIDIZE. Antioxidants have been shown to slow the growth and spread of some types of cancer. Vitamin C, Vitamin E and Selenium are the most effective. Vitamin C dose: dogs 100mg per 10 lbs of body weight twice daily; cats, 250mg twice daily. Vitamin E dose: dogs and cats 100IU per 10lbs body weight twice daily. Selenium dose: dogs and cats, 25ug per 10lbs twice daily. FLAVONOIDS. These are compounds in a class of their own. They compose the thousands of structures that give the bright color to fruits and vegetables. They are antioxidants as well as having anti-cancer properties. These include flavones, (apigenin), isoflavones (genistein), flavanols (quercitin). Purchase a mixed bioflavoniod product that contains polyphenols, particularly EGCG (epigallocatechin-gallate), which is the specific flavonoid isolated from green tea. The dose for a 10lb dog or cat is 250mg daily. FATTY ACIDS ARE ESSENTIAL. Omega 3 fatty acids are great anti-inflammatories and have been shown to prevent the spread of cancer. Flax is the best source for dogs: the dose is 1tsp per cup of dog food. For cats, the liquid form is the only option, and they should receive 500mg twice daily of Salmon oil or a supplement such as EFA Caps purchased from your veterinarian. ARGININE. This amino acid appears to enhance immune function and may inhibit the growth of some tumors. The dose is 250mg per 10lbs of body weight daily. GLUTAMINE. This amino acid may be helpful in inhibiting tumor growth as well as in dealing with some of the adverse effects of chemotherapy. The dose is 500mg per lb of body weight daily. HERBAL HELP. Herbs can help strengthen the immune system. GREEN TEA (CAMELLIA) stimulates the immune system and inhibits tumor growth: standardized green tree extract is dosed at 50mg per 40 lbs of body weight daily. ESSIAC TEA contains a combination of herbs which inhibit tumor growth and spreading. GARLIC has antioxidant and immune-enhancing properties. It is best used in conjunction with other antioxidants. When given at high doses it can cause anemia in your pet, so it is best used under the supervision of your veterinarian. The dog dose is 1/4 clove per 10 lbs of body weight daily; the cat dose is 1/8 clove daily. MUSHROOMS. Certain mushrooms have immune-stimulating and anti-tumor activity. Some of these include Reishi, Maitake, and Shiitake. The dose is 25mg per 10 lbs of body weight daily. GINSENG. A popular immune stimulant, it also appears to decrease cancer growth. The Ginseng dose is 30mg per lb of body weight of the dried herb twice daily or 1 drop per lb of body weight twice daily of the tincture. TRANSFER FACTOR. Transfer factors are tiny molecules that are able to convey immunity information from one entity to another to educate na�ve cells about a present or potential danger along with a plan for action. Although the mostly notable function of these smart molecules is to speed up the recognition phase of an infection making the duration of an illness much shorter, transfer factors also have the ability to suppress an over active immune system. All said, transfer factors have the ability to balance out the function of your immune system, whether it needs to increase in function or be reduced in the case of auto-immune disorders.

to protection by man from the cruelty of man. "

"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged
by the way its animals are treated."
