Pet Vaccines Class Action Lawsuit
The Law Firm of Childress Duffy Goldblatt, Ltd. of Chicago, Illinois, has agreed to investigate and pursue a potential class action lawsuit arising from the misrepresentation of the need for pet vaccinations. Read the letter from Dr. Bob Rogers, DVM. See the additional links on our Resources page.
I studied with Dr. Regan Golob in the 90's and have always found his no-nonsense approach to health to be practicle and on-target. I completely agree with the assertion that everyone should take responsibilites for their heath and medical choices - so always educate yourself instead of relying on any one medical opinion.
Vaccines: TAKING A SHOT
By Dr.
Regan Golob, DC
This month I had an experience with vaccinations. A little one-year old girl had a severe reaction to her DPT, (Diphtheria, Pertussa, Tetanus) vaccine. In reaction to this situation, I was prompted to do some research on vaccinations.
I am often asked about affordable ways to cleanse and support the liver - this carrot salad is one of the best I have used. Eat with (or for) one meal a day for one week out of each month. I learned the original recipe from Dr. Regan Golob.
Dr. Golob's 7-Day Carrot
Salad
1 Cup finely shredded carrots
1 Tablespoon Olive oil
1 Tablespoon fresh Lemon juice
Mix together and serve
(May add raisins, rice, apples, etc.)
To add variety and help rebuild the liver - replace 1/2 of the carrots with finely shredded beets!
This recipe is not only great for people but for dogs suffering from allergies and liver dis-function as well. And they LOVE it!
Hartz Mountain withdraws cat flea, tick
medicine
By Elizabeth Weise, USA TODAY
After at least 7,000 reports of injury and possibly 12 deaths in cats and kittens over three years, the Environmental Protection Agency has reached an agreement with Hartz Mountain company to phase out sales of two flea and tick products for cats containing phenothrin.
I have become a true believer in the power of food to heal as well as give pleasure. Now - Amazon Herb Company has brought healthy chocolate into the realms of Super Foods with Chocomaca.
"Healthy Chocolate? Chocolate that saves the planet? Get rich with chocolate?" The rumors are spreading. So what is the truth of this chocolate craze? Could chocolate be a beneficial indulgence? Could it be an answer to Rainforest preservation? Can it make you wealthy?
For centuries chocolate has received adoring attention. The plant's botanical name, Theobroma cacao, literally means "food of the gods" and many people would agree! It has provided pleasure, health and wealth in the Rainforest regions for millennia.
This is some the best information I have seen about healthy fat sources:
Know Your Fats Introduction: Confused About Fats?
The following nutrient-rich traditional fats have nourished healthy population groups for thousands of years:
* Butter
* Beef and lamb tallow
* Lard
* Chicken, goose and duck fat
* Coconut, palm and sesame oils
* Cold pressed olive oil
* Cold pressed flax oil
* Marine oils
The “Big 5" pet food manufacturers (Nestle, Colgate-Palmolive, Procter & Gamble, Nutro and Heinz) would like us to believe that all our companion animals need to eat is lovingly packaged in affordable servings, readily available at any local store. It is easy and convenient to believe that this is true while ignoring the Wizard behind the curtain. After all, aren’t we shown how years of research and all the finest ingredients go into every can and bag. Don’t we all see the colorful ads and TV spots highlighting healthy, glowing pets running up stairs, performing heroic feats and thanking us repeatedly for feeding them brand X?
What we don’t see is the ugly underbelly of the agribusiness industry. They don’t tell us that 1 out of every 2 dogs in the U.S. will die with cancer! That pet life spans have shortened substantially since the advent of packaged pet foods. That cancer, obesity, liver & kidney diseases, reproductive failure and congestive heart failure are all directly related to this diet!

Cushings Syndrome is a metabolic disorder often (but not always) associated with a tumor on the pituitary gland. Traditional veterinary therapy is to kill the tumor - and the pituitary. This results in a lifelong dependency upon drugs to support the endocrine system, which continues to fail once the pituitary is gone. Before going to these drastic measures I prefer to rebuild the endocrine and immune systems.
Every Cushings horse that I have seen has been severely mineral deficient. And their livers and kidneys are extremely toxic. So we begin with the basics:
In general, we start with recommending a base diet of grass hay, the Dynamite® free choice minerals (NTM Salt, 1 to 1 and/or 2 to 1, and Izmine), Dyna-Pro to reset the digestive flora and Herbal Green to help detox the liver and kidneys as well as support the adrenals. I also test for Easy Boy for magnesium support at this time. After 30 days I reevaluate the horse to see if they are ready to move on to Dynamite or Dynamite Plus for full spectrum vitamin and mineral support. Most of these horses have to maintain with Easy Boy for quite a while - it all depends upon how far their metabolism has let down.
This is an article written by one of my mentors - Dr. Regan Golob
The leaky gut syndrome, in which a defect in the intestinal wall causes it to be more porous than normal, is becoming a common health disorder. This abnormal porosity allows more passage of toxic material such as undigested proteins and fats, parasites, fungi and bacteria into the bloodstream. A healthy gut with the proper pH would eliminate these toxins through the colon. This leakage into the bloodstream can be verified by special permeability urine tests, microscopic examination of the intestinal wall, and bloodstream examination via dark field microscopy of living whole blood. If you have some unresolved health problems, this syndrome could be one of the missing pieces of the puzzle.
Leaky gut syndrome is always associated with autoimmune diseases, conditions where one system makes antibodies against the body's own tissue. Diseases in this category include Lupus, Alopecia Areata, Rheumatoid Arthritis, Multiple Sclerosis, Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Vitiligo, Thyroiditis, Vasculitis, Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Hives, and Raynaud's Disease. Allopaths are starting to recognize the importance of the G. I. tract in the development of allergies or autoimmune disease. Herbologists and colon hygienists have recognized this connection for centuries, using colonics, cleaning up the diet and increasing vegetable juices and chlorophyll.
Showdown and LIquid Purrrformance help solve the raw diet blues.
As in many other things the pet dietary world has come full circle. In addition to foods like Dynamite's Chicken and Rice food and other ultra-premium kibbles many dog owners and breeders are returning to feeding their companions what they ate naturally - a raw diet. Our pets’ wild ancestors derived their fats, and more particularly their essential fatty acids, from raw carcasses of animals and also from raw vegetable material. Feeding raw has many advantages including live enzyme activity, nutraceuticals, phytochemicals, antioxidants, bacteria and other anti-aging factors. Pet's long term health depends upon these factors which are almost exclusively present in whole raw foods.
