Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Canine Hypothyroidism... it is such a "dry" and "boring" topic. Or is it? No. It is increasing in frequency, alluding detection by veterinarians and is ravaging dogs' health. It goes undetected, misdiagnosed-- and costs dog owners a fortune. Dozens of symptoms are frequently misdiagnosed by most veterinarians. And the cost of improper diagnosis has led to lives miserably lived - and even deaths of thousands upon thousands of desperate dogs. The author's own dog - a BOUVIER- came within a hare's breath of being one of those dead dogs. Owners often throw hundreds to thousands of dollars on home and/or veterinary treatments to address the crazy number and array of symptoms that include severe itchiness, weight gain, out of control allergies, aggression - and so many more. This book was written for dog owners who value the quality of life their dogs lead. Not only will readers learn about the myriad of ways canine thyroid disease presents itself in a dog's life, they will also come to understand why this disease is becoming increasingly common in dogs today-and why it is routinely undiagnosed or misdiagnosed. Learn to recognize common symptoms. And know what actionable steps you can take immediately to prevent your dog partner from falling ill from this ravaging disease. It is rare to find such engaging text in a non-fiction information book. But the author makes this information totally accessible and fun to read. As a dog owner or enthusiast, you owe it to the dogs you meet to know everything that is contained within the pages of Canine Hypothyroidism: Detection, Diagnosis And Prevention. ANY dog owner needs to purchase a copy today. This book can prevent illness or save lives of great dogs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a holistic veterinarian and scientist, Dr. Gary Richter helps dog and cat owners to navigate the thicket of treatment options and separate the fact from the fiction. He wants us to use what actually works, not just what Western science or alternative medicine say "should" work. This multifaceted approach to health is known as integrative medicine. Dr. Richter examines traditional medicine from many cultures alongside modern medical techniques, describing the best of complementary care and the best of conventional veterinary medicine. Every treatment he recommends has the backing of scientific research or years of successful outcomes in his clinical practice. After explaining the treatment, he offers specific recommendations for an integrative approach to common diseases, including allergies, skin conditions, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. A holistic approach to health includes nutrition, as it sets up the foundation for your pet’s health. Dr. Richter cuts through the hype in the pet-food world and explains how to choose the best commercial foods and supplements, and even includes both raw and cooked dog- and cat-food recipes for general diet as well as to treat specific needs. He also explains how we can use the right foods and supplements to "hack" the body’s processes, including the immune system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A vegan diet for dogs?! But aren't dogs carnivores? Can dogs really get all the nutrients they need, even protein, without eating meat? Would switching my dog to a plant-based diet be too expensive to sustain? In her newest book, The Plant-Powered Dog, Canine Nutritionist Diana Laverdure-Dunetz, MS, along with W. Jean Dodds, DVM reference the most up-to-date scientific research to explain the detailed nutritional needs of our canine companions and explore the many benefits of switching to a plant-based diet, including increasing longevity and preventing chronic disease. It’s no coincidence that staggering numbers of modern companion dogs suffer from one or more chronic inflammatory diseases. Our canine companions have fallen victim to the same lifestyle-related conditions that are skyrocketing among people living in developed societies. As a culture, we and our companion animals are overfed and undernourished, and we are all traveling down the same dangerous inflammatory path. Fortunately, we have control over dietary choices that affect health! The more research that is done in the field of epigenetics, the more we learn that a plant-based diet is superior for promoting optimum gene expression, disease prevention and longevity. The best part is that you don’t have to choose between your dog’s health and compassion for all animals and our planet. This book will give you a solid foundation for understanding how epigenetic factors such as the foods you put in your dog’s bowl (and on your own plate) regulate gene expression to help promote either optimum health or chronic disease. The Plant-Powered Dog is in-depth guide that provides: • Action Steps to Ensure Success • Individual Chapters Offering Plant-Based Solutions for Chronic Diseases (including Cancer and Diabetes) • Nutrient Comparison Charts • Blank Recipe Creation Charts • Sample Recipes (with photos) • Extensive Resources and Cited Works There is just no denying it: Plant-based nutrition is not a fad, for ourselves or our canine companions. It is the healthy, sustainable diet of the future.

Book excerpt: Silent Winter is about the silent spread of toxic chemicals in our daily lives and their role in the growing prevalence of illnesses such as cancer, chronic fatigue, diabetes, asthma digestive issues, depression, dementia, and others. The scientific evidence about chronic illness and toxic chemicals is withheld from us through stunningly elaborate efforts so that business can continue as usual. Approximately 45% of the adult US population now has at least one chronic illness, and chronic illness is commonly caused by chronic exposure to toxic chemicals. We are often told that these diseases are a result of our lifestyle or our genes. We rarely hear that chronic illness is on the rise as a result of toxic chemicals in consumer products and throughout our environment. Industry does not want to change, so it is forcing us to change on an evolutionary level to deal with the onslaught of chemicals in our daily lives. When we cannot keep up and get ill, we are sold chemical solutions to make us feel better. But individuals and families dealing with chronic illness often know or suspect that toxic chemicals have played a role in the demise of their health. The author also shows how the problem is covered up at a societal level by obscuring what we know, and how discussion of possible solutions is silenced by manipulating the marketplace. Millions of human lives are being muted as a result of chronic illness. Finally, the author discusses our way out of this mess. In the 1962 book Silent Spring, Rachel Carson dedicated one short chapter to the anticipated human health impacts from toxic chemicals. That chapter seeded the present work, Silent Winter, which was written after sixty additional years of scientific research and widespread human exposure to a variety of toxic chemicals. In Our Stolen Future, 1996, Theo Colborn et al. warned of the potential dangers of hormone disrupting chemicals on human health. Nearly another 25 years have passed since that writing. Silent Winter reveals the observed impacts of these hormone disrupting chemicals on human health.
