Nourish pet tea has been created as a long-term support for gut health and to ultimately help heal the gut. Gut symptoms do not need to be severe for gastrointestinal health to be a major player in what’s going on in the overall picture. There may be other major issues that are more pertinent such as ongoing skin problems or even auto-immune disease. However, fixing gut health is often the first step to getting these other issues under control.
The herbs selected in this tea blend have been shown to help with cramping, abdominal pain, flatulence, and bloating. These herbs have been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties, be soothing and healing to the gut lining as well as have many other benefits to the gastrointestinal system such as calming, reducing spasms, helping with diarrhoea, moistening, antioxidant properties, antimicrobial, anticarcinogenic, detoxifying and biofilm busting!
This tea can be used for long-term support in cases where the gut is implicated as a part of other ongoing health issues. An example of this is in skin disorders or immune disorders as the skin, immune system, and gut are all intimately linked. Dr Nat prescribes this tea to support pet patients when the gut has been compromised by both acute toxic insult or through chronic poor nutrition leading to other problems such as poor skin and coat health. It is also a useful tool when detoxing is needed. Pets are exposed to so many chemicals and detoxing is often an important step to rectifying chronic issues in pets’ health.
During episodes of diarrhoea fasting your dog with diluted bone broth 50% and gut healing tea can be beneficial to allow the gut lining to heal and have a break from digesting food as well as keep your pet hydrated. (Take care that bone broth for animals doesn’t have any added garlic, onion or salt, and do not feed the solid fat. Always dilute at least 50%.
If your pet appears unwell at all, diarrhoea is severe or continues for more than a few episodes make sure you consult with your veterinarian.
