How to Choose the Best Health Supplements for Dogs and Why They Need Them by Laura Ramirez
If you’re looking at health supplements for dogs or even wondering if they are necessary, this article will tell you about the benefits of giving your pet herbs and what to look for in a good supplement.
As a researcher on pet health, one of the questions that I get all the time is: “Should I get a health supplement for my dog?” As pet owners become more aware of how important it is to take care of their own health, they naturally wonder if they could be taking better care of their furry friends. The answer to this question is yes, but before we look at why supplements are a healthy addition to your dog’s diet, let’s look it why they are essential.
If you’ve done any health-related research, then you know that we live in a world that is full of chemicals, which is essentially a toxic soup. There are chemicals in the paint and carpets in our homes, in our cars, in the air and in the products that we use daily. These chemicals can build up in the system, especially in the vital organs and tissues and compromise health and immunity over time.
On top of this, food is not as healthy as it used to be. This is due to the lower mineral content of the soil and the way that animals that eventually become our protein source are raised. With less nutrition in our food, it has become essential for humans to take vitamins. If humans are suffering from chemicals in the environment and nutrient-deficient food, then pets are in the same boat.
This is why hundreds of thousands of pet owners around the world are now providing daily health supplements for dogs. While dogs need many of the same vitamins and minerals as us, what they more than anything are the herbs that they naturally chew on when allowed to roam free that help maintain immunity and protect them from disease.
These natural herbs contain active ingredients and antioxidants that flush toxins from the liver and other organs and keep the immune system functioning at its best in order to fight disease or prevent it in the first place. Since there are many supplements on the market, following are some ingredients to look for in a good formulation.
First, look for Mistletoe which is a nutrient-dense plant that treats and prevents respiratory and circulatory issues as well as cancer. Next, the supplement should contain Milk Thistle which will rid the liver of accumulated toxins. Cat’s Claw and Echinacea build immunity and normalize blood pressure, while Astralagus regulates blood sugar and is thought to extend life. The best health supplements for dogs contain all these ingredients in a formulation that is affordable and easy to give your dog on a daily basis.
Whenever loving pet owners asked me, “Should I get a health supplement for my dog,” I answer yes because I have seen first hand the benefits of giving supplements to my own pets as well as what happens when I recommend them to clients’ pets. Your dog is your faithful companion and you should do everything in your power to ensure that your pet lives a long and healthy life. After all, animals should not suffer in an environment that has been polluted and forever changed by man.
