2 Easy Ways to Use Standard Process Whole Food Supplements with Your Pets
You may have noticed, that I love Standard Process. They have MANY amazing whole food supplement products to utilize along with a healthy nutritional diet for your pets.
Where to start?
Let me share 2 ideas:
Canine Whole Body Support
One of the easiest things to do is to incorporate Canine Whole Body Support and Feline Whole Body Support into the meals of your pets. They are safe to use for puppies, kittens, adult pets and elderly pets.
*Veterinarians and pet parents are learning more about the concerns of our pets eating ultra-processed pet foods. Every dog and cat could benefit from a fresh diet but not everyone can cook for their pet. There are plenty of commercially made fresh pet food options available now that owners can choose from. But we need to adapt to all feeding types. When we add in Canine or Feline Whole Body Support to your pet’s diet, it provides general multisystem support for then daily maintenance of all pets' body systems. Supplements like Canine and Feline Whole Body Support, made from whole foods, organ and tissue extracts, botanicals, and other ingredients, can fill nutrition gaps.
*Action Plan: Start incorporating Whole Body Support into your pet’s diet. This will add in essential micronutrients that can be lacking in a pets’ diet. Feeding the body the right nutrition is key to preventing disease and supporting a healthy immune system.
2. Incorporate VF Omega-3 for Pets into your pet’s diet. Omega-3’s are Essential for every pet and here is why…
*The amounts of Omega 3’s in kibble are not enough for our pets. Findings support the hypothesis that increased EPA + DHA intake in dogs fed standard commercial diets may provide health benefits. It is important to have adequate amounts of DHA for neurologic development.
*Let’s not forget about the effects of omega-3 fatty acids on osteoarthritis in dogs. And, also the beneficial effect of Omega-3 fatty acids in cardiovascular disease. So adding Omega-3’s to pet with arthritis and heart disease is beneficial.
*We know Omega-3’s are essential for anti-inflammatory properties, so using them in conditions like skin allergies, and itchy skin is very helpful.
*Let’s not forget about how much Omega-3’s benefit our mitochondria! The mitochondria is the powerhouse in every cell in our bodies. It needs certain nutrients to thrive, Omega-3 being one. Lack of correct nutrients or invasion of the wrong nutrients (like ultra processed ingredients) can create mitochondria dysfunction. This then leads to developing chronic diseases.
