Not achieving any measureable degree of success and on the verge of halting the investigation, serendipity rescued our efforts; one of our investigators happened across a brief, anecdotal description of this protocol---in an older copy of Prevention Magazine (circa 1989). As alfalfa was, obviously, non-toxic our principal investigator prosecuted several evaluations using alfalfa.....and the rest is history. The element which convinced our investigator to try the protocol was the pronounced intensity of conviction of the lady....a successful dog-fancier of long-standing.... that the speed and completeness of response was undeniable. We did encounter cases where the mechanical mobility did not improve appreciably (e.g. fused discs and hard-calcium interferences), but the attendant pain relief was almost always quite significant. One other comment which may be of some value; adding 1 heaping teaspoon of "high grade" granulated kelp (e.g. THORVIN, Maxicrop, etc.)to a dog's daily food ration will...in most cases...mitigate against a myriad of health afflictions. It is worthwhile to remember that without a "full-spectrum" of minerals----a majority of vitamins can not be assimilated in the bodies of most higher mammals.....dogs included. We have found kelp to provide this "safety-net" more completely and economically---than any other single dietary support. Sincerely, Brooks Bradley p.s. Years later the family of alkaloids responsible for the beneficial action of alfalfa seem to have been isolated by some equine researchers.....at least so I am instructed. > > >Brooks where do you get that?
