HYPO-THYRO FORMULA: $13.61
|
Hypo-Thyro Formula is for:
Low TSH
Fatigue
Mild depression
Low body temperature
Sluggishness
Weight gain
Hair loss
Dry skin
Flaky skin
Constipation
Hypothyroidism is a condition, more common in middle-aged dogs and especially common in Golden Retrievers, Dachshunds and Dobermans. It is a condition where the thyroid is under-performing in the production of thyroid hormones. This leads to a sluggish constitution, a slowing down of food processed through the digestive system, and a tendency for your dog to gain weight, feel fatigued, feel cold, lose hair, act depressed, have dry skin, have a weakened voice, etc. The single most important support for the thyroid is the seaweed kelp or bladderwrack; its therapeutic constituent is iodine. It contains 10 times more iodine than any leading land plant.
According to Ryan Drum, Ph.D., a leading authority on herbal treatments of thyroid conditions, “Kelp is the major booster of the thyroid. The highly bio-available organically bound iodine in kelp is responsible for thyroid relief.”

TESTIMONIAL FOR CARDIO-SUPPORT FORMULA $14.16
|
Dear Geoff,
I have prescribed Cardio-Support to three Maine Coon cats with cardiomyopathy (verified HCM). After they have used it for a couple of months, the cats were rescanned, and you couldn't detect any signs of the HCM - the cats had not developed heart failure, but one had SAME (Systolic Anterior Motion) and all of them enlarged left atrium walls. I would like to know if you have similar experiences.
Best regards, LH, D.V.M
Dear LH,
This sounds wonderful, does this mean the thickening that affects that individual heart muscle cells (myocytes) resolved with this formula?
All the best,
Geoff
Hi Geoff.
As it is a bit dangerous to take biopsies from the heart, we just have the ultrasonographies from before and after (and it is the best cardiologist in Denmark, who did them). And there are no doubt that the three cats had HCM, and that means that the individual heart muscle cells have diminished during the treatment. SAME is Systolic Anterior Motion and means that the mitral valve is being pulled into the left ventricular outflow during systole and is caught by the bloodflow and pushed toward the interventricular septum, and then the valve isn't closed and allows blood to flow backwards into the atrium. The theory is that because the papillary muscles are enlarged because of the HCM, the mitral valve is orientated in a wrong angle to the septum, and that causes it. The cat with SAME still has SAME but the backflow is greatly diminished. We don't know if it is just those three cats - they are related (father and sons), but if these results can be repeated in other cats, it looks like you can stop the progression or slow it down. I think you should ask other vets who have used Cardio-Support to see if they have experienced anything like it. Best regards,
LH..... D.V.M.

HOXSEY FORMULA: $15.81
|
Harry Hoxsey’s cancer formula, developed in the 1920’s and still controversial, contained many of the same ingredients as a formula producesd by Parke Davies and Co., their “Trifolium Compound”. Another famous formula sharing some of the same herbs is a formula developed by Rene Caisse. Her last name spelled backwords “essiac”, is the name given to her herbal formula and is also a most popular alternative treatment for cancer.
These formulas using similar herbs share a rich history in the treatment of cancer. According to renowned botanist and herbal researcher, James Duke, Ph.D., this formula has some impressive chemical compounds of considerable interest to the National Cancer Institute. In his article, Herbal Shotgun Shell, in the HerbalGram (1988), he wrote, “Eight of the herbs in the internal tonic showed antitumour activity in controlled laboratory tests. Five showed antioxidant properties as protectants against cancer. All showed antimicrobial properties with activity against viral or bacterial infections.” This is especially important these days, as infectious agents are being linked to cancers (hepatitis B & C is now linked to liver cancer, see Paul Ewalds’ book, Plague Times.) Tests also showed antimutagenic properties, (protectng us from cellular mutations), cytotoxic properties, (kills cancer cells) and antibacterial, antiviral properties.
The Hoxsey formula endures probably due to these actions and is an ideal application to try to shift an animal’s constitutional tendency away from supporting the growth of these wayward cancer cells, whilst increasing and building the immune response, and stimulating the release of accumulated toxins.

LIVER PROTECT INGREDIENT RESEARCH
|
The base of this formula, (used in Japan by 90% of human chronic hepatitis sufferers) "Chai Hu Tang", is being studied by the Japanese for improving levels of interleukin-1, a compound which acts to improve the immunity of the liver. Japanese researchers have identified steroid-like ingredients, saikosaponins, that enhance the activity of cortisone and prevent adrenal atrophy. The studies seemed to to promote the clearance of HBeAg in children with chronic hepatitis B virus infection and with sustained liver disease.
Bupleurum, also displays nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory activity and has been shown to protect against the effects of prednisone. Over ninety percent of chronic hepatitis sufferers in Japan, some 1.5 million people, are taking a safe, natural medicine recommended by conventional physicians and proven effective in hundreds of papers and studies.
Studies have shown that this herbal formula strengthens the immune system, reduces viral loads, and can stop the progression of chronic viral hepatitis into serious liver damage, cirrhosis and even liver cancer. In my own human practice I have 80% of HBV & HCV normalize liver enzymes within 6 months and many are at undetactable viral loads after a few years on this formula. Anecdotal reports from Vets have reported great successes as well.
