Vet Review

When I first saw this product introduced several years back at a holistic veterinary conference with other veterinarians, I was initially quite skeptical about all of the touted ingredients and clinical responses with this product. At the time, the product representatives also had before/after photos of dogs who had used this product, and what a huge difference it made on coat issues, digestive issues, joint issues, etc.. and I remember how we were all so excited to get back to our practices and start using this very versatile product to see if it really made a difference in dogs. And in my many years of using this product I have not been disappointed. While its main ingredient is organic flax seed as a rich source of health promoting omega 3 fatty acids, this super supplement is also chock full of other antioxidants and nutrients like green tea, lecithin, kelp and other wonderful ingredients. Together they truly provide the "missing link", which is lost in the high temperature processing and cooking of today's commercial dog foods from the supermarket and even those sold at vet offices. Dog guardians can use this product for wellness and preventative health, as well as to help manage coat/skin allergy problems, digestive issues, and joint problems. It is very economical, lasting a few months at least in mid sized dogs. The only rare side effects I have seen is occasional diarrhea in dogs sensitive to added fat to their diet, which usually can be minimized by gradually building up to final recommended dose on bag over 1-2 weeks. Occasionally a pet wont eat it, but most of my patients love the flavor. My overall rating is a 4.5. The effectiveness is a 4 and the taste is also a 4.

Being a more holistic oriented veterinarian, I am always searching for more natural effective products to ease our pets pain and discomfort, especially those joint issues associated with aging. I find this combination of homeopathic medicines most effective in those acute injuries or lameness that occur suddenly, In such situations this product is highly effective in relieving discomfort, and in returning our pets to normal mobility and function quite quickly. However when this product is used more long term for chronic conditions, I find that it will often lose its effectiveness if used alone or without some sort of prescription nonsteroidal anti inflammatory medication from your veterinarian, or other joint supplements. I find that combination homeopathic medicines like this make a great adjunct to first aid conventional veterinary care, however if clients truly want to treat their animals long term homeopathically for joint problems, that is best left to a trained classical homeopathic veterinarian who can individualize treatment for your particular pet. I give this product an overall rating of 4. Its ease of use is a 5 and its efficacy is a 4.
