A Yearly Parasite Cleanse For Your Dog

A parasite cleanse for prevention is the easiest way to reduce the risk of a parasitic infection. Your dog is exposed to many different types of parasites on a daily and seasonal basis. Cleansing every now and again is a great idea for any anyone, but protecting your dog from worms and other unfriendly micro organisms only makes sense. What's that old saying...

" An Ounce Of Prevention
Equals a Pound of Cure! "

Dogs are famous for eating suspicious things, drinking stagnant water from puddles, ditches and old containers and eating the poop of other animals. The risk of contracting a bacterial infection such as leptospirosis, or ingesting an amoeba or protozoan giardia cyst or other type of worm eggs, is high.

Then of course, there are mites, fleas, ticks and mosquitos that are considered parasites themselves, and also bring with them the risk of parasitic infection for your dog. Some of these darn things can even be passed on to humans. No wonder, dog's need a parasite cleanse from time to time. I recommend doing this once a year, or maybe even twice annually, if your dog is at high risk for parasites.

Also, let me just put this bug ( no pun intended ) in your ear. If you're anything like me and don't hesitate to hug and kiss your dog, you may need a parasite cleanse yourself! More info below. Something to think about, eh?

Three Necessary Steps to ANY Effective Herbal Cleanse

1 - Support the Liver - The liver performs over 500 important functions in the body daily. It supports digestive functions by secreting bile for breaking down fat, controls the metabolism of nutrients and serves as a reservoir for many nutrients and metabolites. The liver’s central position in the body, and involvement with many metabolic functions, make it's job a hard one. The liver's role in the processing of drugs, vaccines and pesticides, as well as other foreign substances is among its most difficult and stressful tasks.

Liver Cleanse Formula - ( Stock # 1010-3 ) is a blend of herbs and nutrients specially formulated to nourish and protect the liver to support its natural cleansing functions.

2 - Probiotics - are live microorganisms that have many beneficial health effects. They provide essential functions in the body. Gut beneficial organisms promote gut health, and build strong immune function. Probiotics are needed to reseed the intestinal tract with a variety of beneficial microorganisms. This will help to repair the inflammed intestinal lining and prevent the leakage of undigested proteins, toxins and fungus into the bloodstream.

Probiotic Eleven - ( Stock # 1510-1 ) Contains 11 strains of important, gut-beneficial organisms for promotion of gut health and immune response. I recommended this product to repopulate the intestinal tract with a wide variety of beneficial microorganism.

3 - Enzymes - break down proteins and are especially critical to good health because undigested proteins have been linked to a variety of health concerns. When enzymes are given between meals, they may help digest foreign proteins in the blood and stimulate the immune system. Scientific studies have shown that protease enzymes help protect the intestines from parasites and other organisms that may weaken the intestinal system.

Protease Plus - ( Stock # 1841-7 ) To break down undigested proteins and to help to keep the blood clean. Give on an empty stomach between meals.
