Because of our low, mail order,
Internet prices and the amazing demand for our "wholistic"
consulting and
revolutionary products, we limit every inquiry (e-mail and
telephone) to 15 minutes in order to help all those in need.
After the first 15 minutes we charge our normal
consulting
fee. Please make use of all the free resources available 24
hours/day, by clicking on the buttons in the left-hand menu of
every product page (Ingredients, Usage, FAQ, etc.). Thank you in

In July, 2018, the FDA began an investigation
into reports of canine dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) in pets eating
certain foods, many "grain-free" labeled, that contained a high proportion
of peas, lentils, other legume seeds (pulses), and/or potatoes in various
forms (whole, flour, protein, etc.) as main ingredients. We have heard that
some large pet food manufacturers and some traditional Western veterinarians
are recommending pet parents avoid "BEG" diets — Boutique companies,
Exotic ingredients or Grain-free diets. Before you panic, read
our truly holistic perspective in previous newsletters:
The pet food recalls continue. The best "wholistic" suggestion to prevent
danger to your pet is -- STOP feeding dry kibble dog food. In our
"wholistic" opinion, dry kibble dog food is the least nutritious form of
food to feed a carnivore. Furthermore, a majority of all pet food recalls is
with dry food. Canned food, freeze-dried food and raw food have a much lower
percentage of recalls. For the latest recalls, go to:
February is American Heart Month
designed to raise awareness about healthy heart habits and encourage you
and
your loved ones to prevent heart disease. We all know one does not catch
heart failure from a pathogen, like a cold or flu. A heart attack does
not happen by accident, like a broken bone or pulled muscle. Heart
conditions occur because of poor genetics, dietary and lifestyle
choices.
Medical studies have proven how healthy
Omega 3 oils can be to the heart. Did you know almost all conventional
grocery store meat has an inferior content of Omega oils?
Conventional livestock is raised in Concentrated Animal Feeding
Operations (CAFO) containing more than 1000 animal units (an animal unit
is defined as an animal equivalent of 1000 pounds live weight and
equates to 1000 head of beef cattle, 700 dairy cows, 2500 swine weighing
more than 55 lbs., 125 thousand broiler chickens, or 82 thousand laying
hens or pullets) confined on site for more than 45 days during the year.
With the animals not being allowed to graze, limited in fresh air and
sunshine, their meat has less concentration of the 'good fats that
heal.' In a 2014 study, Carlo Leifert analyzed 196 papers on milk and 67
on meat and found distinct differences in their fatty acid composition
and concentrations of essential minerals and antioxidants from
pasture-raised, organic livestock. Among the findings are:
Organic milk and meat had 56% more omega-3
fatty acids than conventional milk and meat.
Organic milk had 40% more conjugated linoleic acid.
Levels of alpha-linolenic acid were 69% higher in organic milk.
Levels
of conjugated linoleic acid were 41% higher in organic milk.
While pasture-raised, organic meat is more
expensive, so is open-heart, coronary angioplasty, coronary artery bypass
and
heart valve replacement surgery. Eating pasture-raised, organic meat is also
less painful and has no recovery time. In addition to pasture-raised, grass-fed
meats, your choice of cooking oil makes a difference in your heart's health.
Using refined corn, soybean, sunflower, canola and
safflower oils, increases your intake of Omega 6-rich, inflammatory
polyunsaturated fats. Instead, choose extra-virgin, cold-pressed, organic
coconut oil, extra-virgin, cold-pressed, organic olive oil or avocado oil which
are anti-inflammatory and may help with improving your cholesterol panel.
If you want to be even more health conscious, get
your Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs—Omega oils) from Nature's primary
whole
food source, algae. Algae are the primary source of all Omega oils in our food
chain. Fish- and plant-derived oil supplements are secondary and are subject to
going rancid. Fish concentrate their essential fatty acids from the algae in the
water. Cut out the middleman and all these inefficiencies and disadvantages with
our whole superfood, bio-algae concentrates products (BioPreparation
for pets and BioSuperfood
for people) that are rich in ALL the Essential Fatty Acids (EFA): the "good fats
that heal," including but not limited to Omega 3, 6, 9,
ALAs
(Alpha-Linolenic Acids), DGLA (Dihomogamma-Linolenic Acid), DHA (Docosahexaenoic
acid), and rare the GLA (its high gamma linoleic acid content is similar to
early mother's milk) and more essential fatty acids. Uncover more holistic
secrets in our previous newsletter, Best Source
for Omega Oils Is Not Fish.
The choice is yours. Do you want to wait for heart
symptoms to show up or blow up? Or do you want to be holistically proactive,
rather than medically reactive, by changing your diet and lifestyle now?
