    BPC-157 (body protective compound-157) Peptides Capsules

    I can't quite figure this out - but I get 1000mg of each (bpc and TB-500) in each daily dose, so perhaps not. And yep, it isn't inexpensive:) Can't tell if it's working yet, but I'm feeling pretty perky:) Your call - perhaps save it for a potentially needy animal.

    BPC-157 (body protective compound-157) Peptides Capsules

    Yep, sure: I'd be happy to take it off your hands at your cost. What I have is a combination of BPC157 and TB500. Let me know $ and I'll send. What I've read seems to make sense for my symptoms; can't tell yet. But my MD is not your basic woo-woo type and we work very well together, so I'm...

    BPC-157 (body protective compound-157) Peptides Capsules

    An old thread, but one that may be fleshed out with more recent experience: I am curious if any more work has been done with peptides such as BPC 157 and TB500. I am currently working with these under my excellent MD's care, and my own experience reminds me of symptoms my boy, now passed, showed...

    Lab suspect with abdomen mass, underweight and low energy

    God bless you and her. I would have done the same. Surgery would have been a long shot, and a tough recovery. They don't count the days, but they feel the love. Don't beat yourself up; you did everything right. All my best; been there.... ginny

    Lab suspect with abdomen mass, underweight and low energy

    Begging your pardon in advance, but: I recently lost my boy due to a combination of causes/symptoms, and I question myself daily about the choices I made for him. Yes, there was surgery, ultimately, which involved removal of benign cysts and obstructions to his intestinal tract. There was no...

    Help for cat in left and right heart failure

    My deepest sympathy, but I prefer to think that you set him free from this mortal coil, and sent his little soul to that better place. His little soul thanks you for all your love and caring...and you will take the knowledge gained to heart, for others, both human and animal.

    Digestive Concerns - Jett

    I'm not a doc, but I'd also likely to see a more consistent diet based on raw meat, and gradually weaning off most supplements. I feel he could do better without the rice and potatoes, honestly. I'd be in favor of the acupunture and bodywork, but can also see a real need for well-prescribed...

    Feline (Maya) follows her sister's footsteps 3 years later w/ increased kidney values/water intake

    Yes; I have a whole-house filter for all faucets, including outdoor hose bibs which water the yards and fill the hot tub. The filter is a large sand-filled canister with a pre-filter unit. I have changed out the prefilter several times over the 18 years I have been here, and have not once ever...

    Lethargy and loss of appetite - sudden after pet sitter

    Bless you for caring so much about him!!!!

    Lethargy and loss of appetite - sudden after pet sitter

    I'm very impressed by the Guardian website. Their offerings seem to include everything I would expect to get from chiropractic and more, so may be the best "cut to the chase" option. Homeopathy can work simultaneously with these options, to address underlying causes and restore function.

    Lethargy and loss of appetite - sudden after pet sitter

    Well, were it I, I would skip the drugs for now, especially b/c he seems perhaps overly calm already. And I wouldn't bother feeding anything made up special - just some really attractive and aromatic meaty things - like cat food, perhaps? Sardines? Diet isn't gonna touch this in any case, I...

    Feline (Maya) follows her sister's footsteps 3 years later w/ increased kidney values/water intake

    I got my Vitalizer cheaply on eBay or something like it. "Lightly used" is fine. I still have my 25+ year-old Nikken machine, too. Used to use them both when I had dogs. Cartridges for either seem to still show up new online, too. But the spinning is the critical factor, so I don't worry much...

    Feline (Maya) follows her sister's footsteps 3 years later w/ increased kidney values/water intake

    The EZ water which I make, using a mechanical process of agitation, will last forever. I make 3-5 gallons at a time, and leave it out in gallon bottles on the counter. Haven't had anything "go bad", ever. I might be a tad bit concerned about any physical residue from the chia seeds, but really...

    Overhydration + enough sodium?

    I asked the Teef! folks about the quantity/dosage issue some time ago, and I was told that even a tiny bit, or the briefest exposure, would be enough to have the desireable change - it's not about nutrition, but only contact. So, were I you, I would not agonize over quantity of water, Teef!, or...

    Red Eyes

    Oh, yippee for Dr. Jean for suggesting less veg and more, lots more, meat. I think she needs to get back to square-one simple. Dogs didn't make it this far evolutionarily with so many adjuncts. And, yes, I view just about all carbs, and adjuncts that are mostly carbs, as just that: adjuncts...

    Frozen bones that are not messy?

    I answered concerning possible edible bones previously: any chicken bones in pieces big enough they cannot swallow them whole, etc. Rabbit, duck, lamb, goat - any bone that does not get eaten, or that looks dangerously choke-able, can be taken away. Any large bone which cannot be consumed might...

    Feeding bones daily?

    Dogs' immune systems are likely more robust than ours, but ours could use the exercise, too:) I wouldn't worry about bone residue, but also might want to contain it to a rug or crate for aesthetic reasons. Edible bone, by definition, should be consumed fairly quickly. And pieces, for the most...

    Indigestion (?) - 4 year old Jack Russell

    ..and I would add that I think it's perfectly all right for him to eat the grass, assuming it's clean and unsprayed. It usually helps them throw up the offending bits - a completely mechanical reflexive thing to do.

    Bone broth recipe from Anitra Frazier and cats

    Yeah, I'm fine with the vinegar, for all us critters. And bone broth is undeniably a good thing, in many cultures going back to prehistory. Every critter that can get into bones, does....

    Bone broth recipe from Anitra Frazier and cats

    For years I have avoided any members of the Solanaceae family, for both myself and the animals. In the past, way before homeopathy knocked on my door, I knew of a psychiatrist who took all his patients off any Solanaceae and achieved some great resolutions. And I have stayed cautious of them...
