Get Relief From Dog Digestive Problems With Natural Herbs

image for: Get Relief From Dog Digestive Problems With Natural Herbs

Pets experience dog digestive problems all the time.

Sometimes your dog gets into the trash.

Even well-meaning family members can feed our pets foods causing digestive upset.

If your dog has an upset stomach, vomiting, or diarrhea, contact your veterinarian in case of emergency.

For recurring digestive problems, a veterinarian trained in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) will address the underlying cause of your pet’s digestive issues.

Switching to holistic pet food, such as PET | TAO, and adding a digestive supplement could help aid your pet’s digestion.

Commercial pet foods, such as canned food and dried kibble, require very high temperatures to mass produce, killing natural enzymes.

Common Causes of Dog Digestive Problems

Here are several common causes of dog digestive problems you should know when assessing your pet’s stomach issue:

  • Bacteria
  • Viruses
  • Parasites
  • Worms

Other causes include:

  • Abrupt change in your dog’s diet
  • Excessive consumption of grass

The following are severe and potentially life-threatening:

  • Consuming chocolate
  • Bloat

Symptoms of Dog Digestive Problems

Firstly, does your dog suffer from:

  • Occasional digestive disturbances
  • Loss of appetite
  • Diarrhea
  • Constipation?

Secondly, do they also suffer from these other symptoms?

  • Occasional depression, anxiety, or separation anxiety
  • Emotional sensitivities such as noise, phobias, aggression, mild territoriality
  • Occasional sluggishness, tired limbs, fatigue, restless sleep

If so, an all-natural supplement such as Kan Essentials Lift The Qi may help.

Lift The Qi was created with a specific herbal blend to help treat dog digestive problems.

Herbs to Help Dog Digestive Problems

Kan Essentials Lift The Qi is designed to address anxiety, fear, aggression, territorial behavior, digestive health, diarrhea and constipation, as well as insomnia.

Chinese Red Ginseng Root and Rhizome

Firstly, ginseng is used to improve digestion.

Secondly, doctors prescribe ginseng for loss of appetite.

Thirdly, ginseng may help with vomiting, inflammation of the colon, and inflammation of the lining of the stomach.

Dong Quai Root

Most importantly, veterinarians recommend dong quai root to treat constipation.

Astragalus Root

In herbal medicine, astragalus is commonly used as a digestive tonic.

White Atractylodes Rhizome

Studies suggest chemicals in atractylodes might improve the function of the digestive tract.

Additionally, atractylodes may reduce pain and swelling.

Bupleurum Root for Dog Digestion Problems

Firstly, veterinarians recommend bupleurum for digestion problems.

Secondly, it may help with indigestion, diarrhea, and constipation.

Tangerine Dried Rind of Mature Fruit

Most importantly, oil from tangerine peels may stimulate the appetite and promote good digestion.

Chinese Licorice Root and Rhizome

Studies suggest licorice root may protect the stomach and duodenum.

Firstly, it increases production of mucin, a substance that protects the lining of these organs against stomach acid and other harmful substances.

Additionally, licorice root has a long history of use for soothing inflamed and injured mucous membranes in the digestive tract.

Cimicifuga Rhizome

According to some studies, cimicifuga binds to opioid receptors, giving it a painkilling effect.

As such, veterinarians may recommend cimicifuga to reduce muscle aches and body pain.
