Tired of vet bills?
Do you make many trips to the vet’s office?
Are you spending your hard-earned money on vet bills because your dog has a chronic illness?
These foods can be hard to find in grocery stores and pet stores, but they are easy to find and buy on websites.
Give your dog or cat the food he needs, and you’ll probably be able to spend your money on other things instead of the vet.
Lack of food is often the cause of chronic illness in pets. Most holistic veterinarians believe that improving a pet’s diet will increase health and vitality and often restore a chronically ill dog to health.
Pets should eat a variety of fresh, whole foods. Well-prepared, homemade raw foods provide the nutrients your pet needs to heal from the inside out.
If you don’t have time to feed a homemade diet, buy the best commercially available, organic feed that is free of preservatives, by-products, and ingredients it fills it. (These foods can be hard to find in grocery stores and pet stores, but they are easy to find and buy on websites.) Then prepare them. Fresh juice and raw liver are among the best foods you can add to your pet’s diet:
Fresh juice (for dogs only):
Use a juicer if you have one. Many dogs love carrot juice, it contains zinc, vitamin E, beta-carotene, copper and other components that strengthen the immune system. It’s best to use organic carrots and you can add celery, parsley or apples. Feed it immediately or mix it with your dog’s food. Try feeding half a cup of juice for every 25-30 pounds of weight daily.
Raw Liver (for cats and dogs):
Some veterinarians consider liver a wonder food for its ability to save lives and improve health. Raw beef and chicken livers are rich in amino acids, proteins, phosphorus, potassium, copper, vitamin A and vitamin B complex.
Liver foods come only from organically raised cattle and poultry because the liver stores toxic substances. You can add raw liver to freshly made juice or add it to your dog’s food. To treat sick pets, give a small amount of organic calf or chicken liver once or twice a day (1 teaspoon per 10 to 20 pounds of body weight) . . . .
If your dog has multiple health problems, eating them may also help:
Digestive enzymes such as pancreatic and bromelain help replace heat-damaging enzymes. Give enzyme supplements between meals.
Probiotics and prebiotics contain bacteria that aid in digestion and fight infection. They replace bacteria that have been destroyed by poor nutrition or antibiotics.
Colostrum and lactoferrin enhance immune function.
Vitamins and minerals are especially important when pets have multiple infections. Choose a vitamin/mineral supplement that is made from whole food sources. Pets can easily accommodate it.
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, and proteins are essential for building every cell in the body.
Garlic fights infection, helps prevent cancer, produces tapeworms, prevents blood clots, and makes pets less attracted to parasites like fleas.
If you give your pet the right things, you should see a healthy, happy pet. And maybe that money used to pay vet bills can now go towards a new car, home improvement, vacation, or even a savings account!
