By Dr. Jeannie Thomason Enzyme Robbing in Dogs. What does that mean? When enzymes that are required for the digestive process are not available within the food being eaten, the digestive system has to “steel or rob” the metabolic enzymes that are produced in the major organs (heart, liver, kidney, etc.) to aid in digesting the meal. Robbing enzymes from various organs of the body that they themselves need to function properly will eventually have a detrimental effect on those organs. This is called enzyme robbing.

What do animals and vibrational frequencies have to do with wellness? By Dr. Jeanette (Jeannie) Thomason, Animal Naturopath “Everything in Life is Vibration” ~ Albert Einstein The law of nature states that everything has a vibration. If you’ve taken a chemistry class you probably remember learning about atoms, and that everything is made up of atoms. These atoms are in a constant state of motion, and depending on the speed of these atoms, things are appear as a solid, liquid, or gas. . Scientific research has shown that...

By Dr. Jeannie Thomason When heat destroys enzymes, enzymes become nonfunctional. When we feed heat-processed or cooked food to our dogs (carnivores) the naturally occurring, necessary enzymes are now absent; placing a greatly increased burden of digestion on the pancreas.According to Gabriel Cousins, MD in his book “Conscious Eating”: “Evidence…strongly suggests that eating foods devoid of enzymes, as a result of cooking, food irradiation, and/or microwaving causes an enlargement of the pancreas and also stresses associated...

By Dr. Jeannie Thomason The most overlooked toxic chemical used on a daily basis in our homes are products that contain synthetic “fragrances” It’s time to turn up your nose at any products that “smell”! Synthetic Fragrances are the most overlooked toxic chemical in our daily lives. While many of us have been taught to read labels on everything we want to buy and use in our home, around our pets and family, the sad truth about synthetic fragrances is that manufacturers are not required to list their fragrance...

Many of the toxic chemicals lurking in our homes are what are called Hormone Disruptors. Hormone disruptors are in everything from cleaning products, synthetic fragrances and food packaging! In biology class we learned that our bodies are run by a network of hormones and glands that regulate everything we do. This network or system is called the endocrine system. While you may instantly think of the endocrine system in the context of puberty, it actually plays a much bigger role and in ALL phases of development, metabolism, and even...

CBD – Herbal Hemp Supplement for Pets May 11, 2018 With studies and anecdotal evidence continuing to discover more exciting natural benefits of CBDs from Hemp for dogs, many pet owners have begun to incorporate CBD powder (or oil ) into their dog’s diets to promote general well being.

read moreOur Dogs Are What They Eat
By Dr. Jeannie Thomason I know you have heard it before, “You are what you eat!” This applies to our companion animals just as much as it does to us humans. The right food/nutrients is critical and essential to good brain function, muscle and organ growth and maintiance, and of course to a strong immune system. Yet the majority of dogs (and cats) around the world are not adequately nourished these days and we are seeing lifelong consequences for health and cognitive development. Nutrients from the foods we offer our dogs to eat;...
read moreThere IS Another Way! – Animal Naturopathy
By Dr. Jeannie Thomason Many are becoming more and more aware that allopathic/conventional veterinary medicine no longer seems to make the cut; it doesn’t really fix or “cure” the underlying health issues that our pets are facing. Veterinary medicine focuses on treating the symptoms by dishing out the so-called “quick fix or magic bullet” to get what appears at first glance to be immediate results! The trouble is, that the medications never cure, they only suppress or mask the symptoms as they trick the brain...

By Dr. Jeannie Thomason What is Species Specific Nutrition? It is supplying the nutritional needs of the body according to the species.
