MISC ║ ask the petxpert<br />

We are constantly asked why all the<br />

cutting edge protocols and “treatments”<br />

developed or introduced<br />

by us actually work and involve going back<br />

to nature? We understand that all disease is<br />

caused by only two things, deficiency (malnutrition)<br />

and toxicity (poison). We understand<br />

that correcting those two things will allow the<br />

body to heal. Nature has provided our planet<br />

with everything humans and pets alike need<br />

to survive, such as water and food sources<br />

from animals, poultry, fish and even plants.<br />

Our quest to find optimal health and healing<br />

has opened many doors leading to the<br />

healthiest foods and diets for all creatures<br />

along with the healthiest and most beneficial<br />

micro-foods such as herbs, spices and botanicals<br />

that provide micro-nutrients and detoxification<br />

for the body. It is most important that<br />

all of these products get the proper preparation<br />

in order to achieve their best benefit.<br />

Due to recent changes in government<br />

regulations, we are now able to use and<br />

provide one of natures’ miracle food components,<br />

cannabidiol hemp oil, otherwise<br />

known as “CBD” Oil or “CBD” Hemp Oil. Unlike<br />

it’s cousin, these hemp oil products are<br />

non-psychoactive. In hemp, CBD dominates<br />

the plant’s makeup. CBD interacts with the<br />

body’s naturally occurring systems, but is<br />

ask the petXpert<br />

What is CBD and how does it<br />

benefit our pets?<br />

These pets are available for adoption<br />

non-psychotropic, it doesn’t contain THC or<br />

cause a high. This makes it safe and offers<br />

significant health benefits.<br />

So many of our pets and even family<br />

members suffer from cancer, anxiety, pain,<br />

stress, post-surgery discomfort, inflammation,<br />

allergies, asthma, neurological disorders,<br />

seizures, drug withdrawal, appetite<br />

suppression, insomnia and more. Found in<br />

all mammals, the endocannabinoid system is<br />

made up of millions of cannabinoid receptor<br />

sites located primarily throughout the brain<br />

and central nervous system (CB1 receptors)<br />

and immune system (CB2 receptors) that act<br />

in neural communication.<br />

CBD interacts within the body through<br />

the endogenous cannabinoid system (ECS)<br />

or endocannabinoid system. Discovered in<br />

the late 1980’s, the endocannabinoid system<br />

regulates the body’s homeostasis, or general<br />

state of balance, impacting such functions as<br />

mood, sleep, appetite, hormone regulation,<br />

along with pain and immune response. It also<br />

increases oxygenation of the blood which is<br />

important especially when exercising.<br />

We are finding that when CBD is used in an<br />

integrated nutritional program of species appropriate<br />

diets, natural herbs and botanicals,<br />

it promotes healing and relief of unwanted<br />

symptoms. Many of the challenges mentioned<br />

above suddenly, without warning or<br />

even medical understanding just disappear.<br />

As we have stated here and in the past,<br />

nature has answers that many have not explored<br />

and can do amazing things. Foods<br />

bring us nutrients but also remove toxins<br />

which is why vomit and diarrhea are<br />

healthy responses, not an illness. The understanding<br />

of the biodynamics of the body,<br />

whether it be ours or those of our pets<br />

and even the animals that we use for food,<br />

is critical. We need to require our doctors<br />

and veterinarians to be versed and able to<br />

explain biodynamics to us. If not, then we<br />

need seek those that can.<br />

We all want our pets and families to be<br />

healthy. Everyone deserves it and it can be<br />

achieved through a healthier protocol minus<br />

the excessive use of medicine, pharmaceuticals<br />

and chemicals manufactured and promoted<br />

by corporations primarily to enhance<br />

their business model.<br />
