Toxins and pesticides are lurking everywhere! They're in our food, water and of course in the air. As much as we are exposed to pesticides, dogs suffer more exposure because they are lower to the ground and can't make sure their food is clean, organic and their water is filtered before consuming it.

Studies show that pesticides can cause health problems like birth defects, cell damage, cancer and other effects that might occur over a long period of time. Some pesticides also have unique neurotoxic health effects on growing puppies and children.

The key to minimizing the damage from pesticides is to limit your dog’s exposure and helping him detoxify and remove these harmful products from his body.  Here are a few tips to help your dog overcome toxic pesticide overload.

  • Clean, Fresh Filtered Water (Alkaline, if possible)
  • BUY HERENUTRAMIN Supplement! This is Key!
  • Proper Nutrition: The faster food moves through the digestive tract, the less likely it is for toxins to be absorbed into the body (not to mention harmful bacteria). Kibble and carbohydrate laden diets require a change in the pH in your dog’s stomach and slow digestion down. A raw meat diet will move through his digestive tract in about half the time. Meat is less likely to be laced with pesticides than grains and vegetables.
  • Beneficial Bacteria: A properly functioning digestive system with balanced intestinal flora will bolster your dog’s immune system and it will help him efficiently clear ingested toxins out. Holistic Vets suggest looking for soil based probiotics instead of dairy based.
  • Milk thistle has been safely used for years to help the liver detoxify and repair itself. The tincture form is the best to use with dogs and the dosage is 1/4 tsp per 20 pounds. There are other herbs that can be combined with milk thistle to fight toxicity. These include dandelion, burdock, yellow dock, red clover, Oregon grape and turmeric.
  • Exercise: Regular exercise and panting will increase blood flow through your dog’s body and this will help remove toxins. Exercise can also help control his weight and this is important as fat cells tend to store toxins.
  • Keeping your dog healthy involves more than just a healthy diet. Try to lessen his exposure to avoidable pesticides (think about your neighbors lawn chemicals on your next walk).  Detox on a regular basis with NUTRAMIN. this will help decrease the toxin load and lessen the harmful effects of pesticide exposure.
