It is formulated using what is believed to be the original Essiac® formula that Rene Caisse settled on after more than fifty years of experimentation and research with real cancer patients. Even though Essiac® is often preferred in tea form by many, we make ours in a glycerite so it is easy to get into your dog or cat, especially one that may not be feeling well. This is important because Essiac® must be given away from meals for best results and so it doesn't run the risk of upsetting your animal's stomach if given with food. Squirting our \u003cem\u003eImmune Cleanse\u003c\/em\u003e into your animal's mouth with the supplied dropper makes this task much easier.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"padding: 1em; border: 1px solid #cc6633;\"\u003eRecently, \u003cem\u003eThe Pet Health and Nutrition Center\u003c\/em\u003e has begun using a new technology to extract our glycerite herbal remedies called \u003cem\u003eUltrasonic Botanical Extraction\u003c\/em\u003e. To the best of our knowledge, at this time, we are the only pet supplement company using this modern technology to create the herbal remedies our clients use for their dogs and cats.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis modern technology uses ultrasound waves to break apart plant matter to release active, beneficial plant constituents into the solvent (in our case USP organic glycerin). We have used independent, third-party testing to ensure our new herbal remedies will be as effective as our prior method of extraction. The results exceeded our expectations and showed an \u003cstrong\u003eincrease of 10X\u003c\/strong\u003e in the amount of active plant constituents using this modern botanical extraction method.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat you may notice…\u003c\/strong\u003e First, let me make clear that our herbal formulas are the same and have not changed.

Research shows organic herbs have higher amounts of important nutrients as opposed to conventionally raised plants. Organic farming methods are also better for the environment and of course do not have the levels of residual pesticides that conventionally grown herbs can have. We also do not use wild crafted herbs in our formulas as this practice can damage wild populations of herbs and you do not necessarily know where the herbs are coming from or have been grown. Instead, we prefer to be on the safe side and only obtain herbs from USDA certified organic farms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e Natural Ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNatural ingredients are going to be gentler on your animal's body when compared to synthetic chemical ingredients or medications.

Tinctures are concentrated forms of a plant's constituents that are readily absorbed and utilized by your pet's body. Because your pet may not like the taste of alcohol, we use vegetable glycerin which gives our tinctures a sweet taste your animals will like. Vegetable glycerin is a carbohydrate but is metabolized differently than sugar and does not raise blood sugar levels. It is also an efficient menstruum which extracts valuable constituents from plants and makes them readily available to the body. In addition, we take the extra time and effort to use a low heat process that extracts many more constituents than just soaking in glycerin alone as is done by most other herbal companies. And, of course, the use of USDA \u003cstrong\u003eorganic\u003c\/strong\u003e vegetable glycerin ensures your pet avoids genetically modified ingredients and herbicides in their natural medicine.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 14pt;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: #cc6633;\"\u003e✓ \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eUses only Human Grade Ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur products are manufactured using \u003cstrong\u003ehuman grade ingredients\u003c\/strong\u003e.

Detailed information with a servings chart can be found under the Instructions tab on this product page.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan this herbal extract be used alongside prescription medications?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, the answer to this question is “yes” with some caveats. First, see if there are any contraindications listed in the FAQs question above. Next, we suggest that herbal formulas are given at least two hours away from medications to avoid the potential for interactions. Lastly, since herbs can have a similar effect on the body as a medication prescribed by your veterinarian, your vet should monitor your dog or cat to see if the dosage of any medication needs to be adjusted lower. Don't adjust the dosages of a medication your pet is using without your vet's supervision.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre their potential side effects?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhile this herbal extract is very well tolerated by the majority of dogs and cats, a very small percentage of users may experience mild stomach upset or nausea if they are sensitive to an ingredient in the formula just like they may with any new food. These effects are rare and typically stop shortly after you discontinue use. If your pet has a history of being more sensitive, we recommend starting with 1\/4 of the suggested serving size to see how your pet reacts before using the full suggested serving. If your dog or cat does display symptoms of nausea, don't panic, just discontinue the herbal extract and allow time for your pet's stomach to settle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs the vegetable glycerin used for your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, our glycerin is certified USP organic and is derived from organic sunflower oil or organic flax seed oil. It is not palm-derived (environmentally damaging) or soy-derived unlike most glycerin used by others in the pet market.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre the herbs used in your herbal formulas organic?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes, all of the herbs used in our formulas are certified USDA organic. There is a significant additional expense in using USDA organic herbs compared with conventional herbs. However, we feel this is important to get the highest quality herbs from organic farms and suppliers we trust without the potential for contamination with pesticides and herbicides. As far as I am aware, we are the only pet supplement company that uses 100% USP organic glycerin and USDA organic herbs in their herbal formulas for dogs and cats.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow do I store this herbal formula?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOur herbal extracts can be stored out of direct sunlight and away from heat on the kitchen countertop or in a cabinet. Refrigeration can be used if the extract is going to be stored for a longer period of time because it can extend the shelf life, but it is not necessary.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes the herbal extract have an expiration date?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe \"Best by\" date can be found on the bottom of the bottle using a label. If the label falls off feel free to contact us and we will know from your order date what the “Best by” date is.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long does it usually take to see results?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGenerally, you should start noticing some sort of results within a few days. Continue providing the herbal extract to your dog or cat for at least one month to get a good idea as to whether this particular herbal formula is working for your pet. The answer to this question will be influenced by two considerations. The first is the vitality and lifestyle of the dog or cat. Some animals have a stronger vitality and therefor a better response to herbal extracts. Some dogs and cats also have better diets and less exposure to toxins and chemicals from over-vaccination or medications.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAnother consideration is whether you have selected the correct herbal formula for your dog or cat. If you don't see improvement in a month's time please contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can discuss what you are trying to accomplish and make sure you have the correct herbal extract or other supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLastly, let me mention that herbal extracts are not pharmaceutical drugs that have a dramatic affect on the body. What we are trying to accomplish with our herbal formulas and other supplements is to provide nutritional support for weak organs\/systems and this can take a little time to accomplish in some cases. Also, as I alluded to earlier, diet and lifestyle play a huge role in the health of your dog or cat. If you continue to feed a poor-quality, processed diet, provide repetitive booster vaccinations or use chemical flea\/tick products, these will work against what we are trying to accomplish and make it more difficult to improve the health of your companion. This is because all of the aforementioned place additional stress on the liver, kidneys and immune system instead of allowing the body to focus its energy on restoring balance.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my pet is not responding as hoped?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eIf your dog or cat is not responding to the herbal formula as hoped, then you may increase the herbal extract serving size by 50% and monitor the results. You can also increase the frequency up to three times daily. Reduce back to the lowest effective serving size and frequency as your pet's condition improves. Feel free to contact us at support@thephnc.com so we can offer you more advice. Our goal is for you to succeed and we will help you to the best of our abilities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if I have a large dog and\/or on a budget?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe understand that providing a large animal with herbal remedies and natural supplements can be a financial burden. We would suggest to provide what is within your budget and see how that works. For example, if you have a 100 lb dog that would require 5 mls of an herbal extract two to three times daily, figure what is within your budget and try that. It may only be 1 ml or 2 mls two times per day. However, in our experience this is preferable to avoiding the herbal formula entirely.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat if my vet is not receptive to a more holistic approach using herbal extracts or natural supplements?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUnfortunately, this is a fairly common occurrence. Try telling your vet that you respect their knowledge and experience but would like to incorporate a more natural approach into your pet's care. If this doesn't work, and your vet is still unreceptive, then finding a veterinarian that shares your holistic philosophy may be appropriate.
