Ever wondered if what you're feeding your pet is impacting their health? Our deep-dive into the potential risks of Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs), like Omeprazole and Prilosec for dogs and cats, might just make you rethink their dietary needs. We break down the complexity of how these acid reducers can throw off your pet's gut microbiome, inviting health issues such as gastroenteritis and increasing the risk of strokes. We stress why a diverse diet of fruits, vegetables, and meats is key for a balanced gut microbiome, determining your pet's well-being.
Don't miss our comprehensive discussion on histamine management in dogs, where we showcase natural antihistamines and the factors that can diminish DAO and HMMT enzymes - antibiotics, antihistamines, vaccines, inadequate diets, and NSAIDs. We highlight the toll leaky gut and food sensitivities take on DAO enzymes and suggest various herbs and foods that can lower histamine levels, providing anti-inflammatory benefits. We wrap up the episode with solid tips for maintaining a healthy dog, touching on critical aspects like vaccinations, heartworm protection, air quality regulation, metal testing, pesticide avoidance, natural pest control, and the use of organic foods. We hope this episode helps you take the necessary steps to lighten your pet's liver burden and boost their gut health.
