Thank you for this response, Dr. Jeff. This discussion is helping me further my understanding of certain themes (I am calling them themes because I do not know of a better name) and their interplay.
Rightfully or not, but in my mid I have thought of palliation as any approach that is treating...
So, even though, future testing or anecdotal evidence may confirm this compound's effectiveness in treating various ailments, but any such treatment would be palliative since it does not support the whole person (i.e., the one life force).
When I first read about this compound I was skeptical because the application appears to be so broad from wound healing to digestion and improved brain function. But then yesterday's speaker who was discussing TCM approach to healing disease pointed out how various organs are connected (in this...
I am curious if anyone has experience or opinions about use of BPC-157 (body protective compound-157) Peptides capsules. I learned about this compound from a local raw food expert who has written an on-line post about it and is recommending it to help dog's with (1) joint and tissue support; (2)...
Just a quick update for those who might find this thread in the future, I am happy to report that we used the drugs for only one day and now in retrospect I wonder if they were even necessary. The opioid was prescribed for its calming effect, and although Xia was not active, I do not think she...
Thanks, Ginny. We never used the create. In one of our previous homes (we moved several times) she used to go in the create and sleep on occasion. She has not done that in the past few years. I mostly use it to keep her toys. I may need to resort to it, but I am trying to minimize stress for...
Hi Dr. Jeff -
On Sunday and Monday Xia mostly rested and seemed alert but she did seem to be in pain, judging by her occasional sighs and little noises that she made. I have been holding off going to the ER just because I was unsure how they would handle her and if it would be added trauma. On...
Name: Xia
Age: 12-13 yo
Female/Spayed
Chihuahua Mix, about 8.5 lbs
Raw food diet, vaccinated early in life but nothing recently
Xia is in very good health overall. On Sunday, around 2:30 in the afternoon she fell from my arm and hurt side of her body. The impact was big. She yelped, peed and...
Hi Sheri - my name is Ive (pronounced Evay). I am glad you find the info useful. I always need to watch the calories for my little one because she loves food and at 8.5 lbs, she can easily gain weight. Hence the use of broth that is lower in calories especially compared to any type of a nut butter.
Hi Sheri -
I am not a medical professional, but I have worked in the pharmaceutical industry. I understand a little bit of your pain you are experiencing so I felt compelled to chime in.
There is no way to tell how any of the drugs such as gabapentin, tramadol, trazadone or Anipryl work...
Recently I got my hands on Raw Frozen Line Caught in the USA Wild Cod Liver. And although it does not contain as much of DHA Omega 3s as SmartZyme, it is still a very good source of omega fatty acids; and safe, bioavailable form of important vitamins & minerals as well. The liver has to be kept...
This summer, I planted a row of hedges in my front yard. It was my first attempt at gardening, and I have invested significant time in tending to the young plants. The other day, my dog alerted me to an activity outside, which generally means a mail carrier coming up to the front door. But this...
I agree with everything said here, but the concept of being able to deliver remedies via sound is intriguing to me. I imagine that my initial reaction to the idea is how hard-core allopathic scientists react to the idea of homeopathic remedies. I think that the tool itself, including the...
This is an interesting concept and one can try it for free. There is an online diagnosis tool/questionnaire for handful of ailments that asks about symptoms and modalities. After completing a questionnaire the tool recommends a remedy and you are immediately given access to the audio file for...
Hello - discussion and information about the BEMER. I have been curious if dogs or cats instinctively choose to sit on the BEMER when turned on. I would love to hear about their experience from any pet guardians who also own a BEMER. Thanks in advance.
