Re: Antioxidants during Chemotherapy

Siberian, If you haven't tried cultured veggies (for you and Rocky) I would highly recommend it!!! In trying to find information for you I stumbled across the below info from Dr. Mercola's site.

Re: Antioxidants during Chemotherapy

Missing Link is, imo, a good brand.. My first holistic vet (moved) recommended it for my kids. But Audrey (kidney girl) developed an allergy to bone meal so Missing Link is out for us.

Re: Help needed - not sure where to turn next

Hi Siberian, I’ve never been in this situation but I believe if I were, I would ditch the chemo and go with the alternatives only…. But, that’s me. You have to do what feels best for you. I would highly recommend considering supplementing with alternatives suggested if you decide on the chemo though. If you look at cancer, any disease

Re: Healthy Pets Complete Probiotic

Okay, here's an instance where I should take my own advice..... Preboiotic foods - good. Isolate the substances from the food and create potential imbalances!! Nutritionism at its finest!!!!

I first read about using turmeric for lipomas on Dr. Demian Dresslers website. Dr. Dressler wrote a book called "The Dog Cancer Survival Guide. This is a quote from his site... "Curcumin is
