Pet health supplements, disease prevention and miracle pet cures: an exclusive interview with Dr. Lisa Newman, formulator of the Azmira Holistic pet care products (part 4 of 4) Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

Mike: Do you think there is an awakening in pet care about the links between nutrition and disease? Newman: It's starting, and thank God it is. I have been in this industry for 20 years. I have been in this before there was a natural pet care industry. It has been very frustrating to me. We haven't even reached the peak of awareness. Thank God they are starting to wake up a little bit. They are starting to say, "Well, maybe there is something to this." What we have heard for years is that it can't hurt, so go ahead and try. Then, when it works, it was probably a fluke.

Mike: We see the Westernization of pet care, in terms of prescribing more drugs to pets and pharmaceutical companies more aggressively marketing to veterinarians. Newman: Pets are on Prozac, Mike. Mike: That is unbelievable. I was talking to a neighbor who has a beautiful dog that is unfortunately dying from multiple myeloma. I asked her about the history of her dog, and she named off four or five drugs this dog has been on for years. The toxic load of these drugs has to be huge.

Thank God they are starting to wake up a little bit. They are starting to say, "Well, maybe there is something to this." What we have heard for years is that it can't hurt, so go ahead and try. Then, when it works, it was probably a fluke. We still get a little bit of that. The vets here in Tucson, who have seen hundreds and thousands of our cases in their offices, get reversals on all kinds of symptoms they had given up on.

Big Pharma takes over veterinary medicine; dogs and cats drugged with chemicals for profit Mike Adams, the Health Ranger See article keywords and concepts

I got ripped off and taken advantage of by a pet care clinic that was exploiting pet emergencies for maximum profits. (There are crooks and dishonest practitioners in the pet care industry just like in the people care industry.) Holistic animal care practitioners It's not all bad news, though. Fortunately, there are more holistic practitioners in veterinary medicine than in human medicine, and it's fairly easy to find a holistic vet in any major city if you look around. The holistic veterinarians understand nutrition, herbs, homeopathy and other natural modalities.

If you care at all about the health of your pets, I strongly urge you to seek out and work with a holistic pet care practitioner who avoids prescribing pharmaceuticals. Any veterinarian who thinks Fido is depressed and needs antidepressant drugs should frankly have their licensed stripped away and be banished to some distant, isolated South Pacific island overpopulated with sexually aggressive baboons. Numerous natural products are also available for pet care today. One company I trust and strongly recommend is Azmira (www.Azmira.

The company is now known as Nestle Purina pet care Center. (Previous purchases by Nestle include Carnation in 1985, which owned Friskies. And in 1994, Nestle had purchased the Alpo brand dog food.) As a part of the sale, Nestle agreed with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) stipulation to sell Meow Mix and Alley Cat, (two dry foods made by Purina) to the Boston-based investment firm J.W Childs Equity Partners 11 L.P, which owns the pet supply company Hartz Mountain.5 "Ralston's share of the dry cat food market across all channels of distribution is approximately 34%," noted the FTC.

You also run a pet care clinic, correct? Newman: Well, it's not a veterinary clinic. What I have is two retail stores, and my retail staff goes through a correspondence course that I put together so they're fully trained in providing the holistic animal care lifestyle. Mike: So, your staff can offer pet lifestyle consultations? Newman: What they do is educate pet owners, and what we also have is a direct phone line people can use. If they call 520-886-1727, they can get educated on their animal's specific needs. We're not a clinic that diagnoses; we're not there to prescribe medications.

Natural Pet Cures: Dog & Cat Care the Natural Way Dr. John Heinerman See book keywords and concepts

Recovery Treatments In his book on natural pet care, Dr. Pitcairn has this to say about treatment procedures for cat distemper: "The most crucial factor in successful treatment is to catch the disorder in its earliest stages. Since young animals can die very quickly, there often isn't enough time to get a home treatment under way." Because distemper can be more rapid and fatal in cats than in dogs, time is of the essence in quickly dealing with the problem in an effective manner. The "Three D's" (as I call them) of feline panleukopenia are dehydration, depression, and diarrhea.

When I commenced research for this natural pet care book a couple of years ago, I quickly learned to my astonishment that this same problem ranks as one of the leading diseases in small animals. Practically every veterinarian I interviewed by phone or in person from coast to coast put diabetes at or near the top of their lists for 85 what they regularly see in many of their patients. "It's a biggee!" one Atlanta-based veterinary practitioner told me.

EMFs: Another Potential Health Threat for Pets and People In preparation of this book, I learned something I wasn't expecting: how very little pet care authorities know on some matters while having extensive knowledge in other areas. This became apparent as I scanned the available pet-care books and magazines for material on EMFs, or electromagnetic fields. Virtually nothing could be found on the subject in any of the current best-sellers or major magazines such as Cat Fancy, Dog Fancy, or Natural Pet.

For specific advice on pet care, read The Treatment of Cats by Homoeopathy, by K. Sheppard, and The Treatment of Dogs by Homoeopathy, by the same author. There's a useful booklet, Homoeopathy in Veterinary Practice, by K. J. Biddis (this can be mail-ordered from Ainsworth's Homoeopathic Pharmacy, listed in Appendix D). Margery G. Blackie's book, The Patient, Not the Cure, contains a chaptet, "Homoeopathy on the Farm." -> A A Although I enjoy conversing with my patients about their pets, and mine, I never delude myself that I can take the place of a veterinarian.
