And here's your host, Bill the Pet Health Guru. Welcome to the Pet Health Cafe.
0:43 To show where your pet has a voice. This is Bill the Pet Health Guru, and we've got an exciting program built up for her tonight. Again again as always, I we want you to like it and subscribe and share, share, Share, Share, share, and anybody that is concerned about health of themselves or their pets. Because we go into a lot of detail, the chat room will be open for questions and comments. And what we're going to talk about is one of those those topics that's kind of like up there in the stratosphere right now on all the health pages, if you will, YouTube and Spotify and Facebook and everything else, and that has to deal with the fact that we've discovered that the second brain basically is driving everything, and that's basically our gut and digestion. Now, with that being said, I want to bring in my special guest, doctor Michael dimm And, who's a frequent visitor on our show. How you doing, Doc?
1:46 All right, great to be here, Bill. Yeah, So we're gonna be talking about guts. You know that sounds really really good, doesn't it. There's a raceource name guts once a harness. Oh was there? Yeah, I guess he had guts. Yeah, yeah, evidently. Uh, but so much disease that we see. Basically, if you clear up the gut, a lot of it goes away, doesn't it. It sure does. Like you said, it's the you know, the other immune system. It's the main immune system. It's the main gateway to the rest of the body. And uh, you know, so many of our animal patients come in with unhealthy, imbalanced the guest or intestinal tracks, so you know, I know we often start at that level, whether it be through food or other measures that we'll talk about.
2:37 Yeah, it's interesting I heard it coming on in the podcast, just as last week when doing some research on this, and that the body has only two openings, the mount and the butt and everything. He's got to go through that in order to help us out. So what happens in that space in between is really where let's face it, that's where everything has weapons. I mean, it's not happening in our hands. I mean we're shoveling it in our face with our hands. But other than that, the hands don't really absorb any any benefits for the most part. Our feet the same way. Yes, they are organs of detoxification and absorption, but without the gut, you can't live.
3:18 No, And I'm glad you brought up the fact that you know, as I talked about with clients all the time, is that you know, digestive tract runs from the mouth through the anus. It's not just the stomach and the small intestines and the large intestines. But you know, certainly the whole process begins in the oral cavity with the you know, with the floor that's there and the health of the tissues that's there, the saliva and of course our animals and I know you talk about this all the time. You know, don't have the you know, the enzymes to adequately digest certain types of nutrients that we do. So and yeah, it all starts in the mouth, you know where things begin.
3:58 Well, it's interesting because you know how little people really think about it, because I mean basically, the moment you put something in your mouth, the body goes into First off, it started producing hydrochloric acid to digestive food in the in the stomach area. But it's also starting immediately to absorb nutrients and benefits from the food while it's still in the mouth. It's through those mucous membranes, aren't they absolutely Yeah? Yeah, And there you know there's a healthy you know, bacterial flora in the mouth that is critical there too with optimal functioning of that system. Yeah, you know, I mean when people think about, you know, bacteria in the mouth, of course, you know it's like get the get the bottle of scope or you know, listerine and let's kill it all. But actually, you know, we need the right type and of course that's going to take us down our journey down throughout that hole.
4:55 Got situation at whole digestive issue. And so many animals too, they'll have you know, not only they come in with digestive trouble. I mean you look at their mouths and they're they're a mess. You know. That's where, like I said, the gateway too to the rest of the lower down GI tract. And so you know, so many animals thing we talked about in many shows, have so much dental problems which interfere with the effect of you know, digestive health right from the get go. And that's something that you like, you talk about all the time. We never we never see we didn't see forty fifty years ago, you know, animals with you know, detal issues and gum problems and so you know, definitely inhibited start of the digestive process.
5:36 Yeah, yeah, And you know, it's it's interesting because that should be the first indicator if you've got problems in the mouth. Okay, it tells you a whole bunch of things that are going on. And you know, we've been taught for the last it's no a little over almost fifty years that you know, you got to brush your dog's teeth, you got to keep them all clean. Everything else that doesn't happen in nature, you know, at all. And they don't have the dental problems that our dogs and cats do. The body is able to fight what little stuff they have. They get bones caught on our tooth, they you know, scrape, you know, actually the bones are scraping the tartar off. You know, they're eating pre digested rotting food sometimes that's loaded with all kinds of what we would consider bad bacteria, and they just you know keep moving, you know, moving through life like nothing bothers them.
6:36 You know. So you know, as soon as your animals starts having problems in the mouth areas, shouldn't they be seeking some sort of you know, advice as to what what protocols can be started. And we're you know, obviously allopathic medicine you know, has one solution. You know, just are turn them on that regiment of dental cleanings with and honesthesia, and you know, give them a crunchier food of carbohydrates. Yeah, lovely every one, right, Yeah, give them kimbles so that you know they can have the rushing effect of the kimble on the teeth. And I always tell people, you know, it's like that would be like you know, a dent the human dentist time somebody to go and chew on some cereal, you know, to help your dental health for a person.
7:27 It's crazy. And I mean the thing is is, you know, we know, you know, looking over the timelines. I mean, like I said, back in the nineteen eighties, I started selling dental equipment for cleaning teeth. I couldn't even give it away to a veterinarian because that was not it wasn't even in a veterinary code, let alone you know, a normal practice. And then with artificial flavors in the foods, you know, and the extra chemicals and everything else, all of a sudden, it just went crazy. Of course, you know, the marketing companies with the dog foods came out with now sue for cleaner teeth, which they had to eliminate because you FTC said, you're lying, you know, But we also have been looking at the timeline if we didn't have those problems prior to nineteen to nineteen eighties, and it's where would you rate it now, like number two, number three?
8:16 Believable? Yeah, I mean, in this information has been known. I mean, I posted something on social media recently regarding the Pottinger cat studies we're done back in the thirties and where they fed cats, you know, raw fresh foods at that time versus you know, cooked you know foods, and they saw a tremendous exponential growth in a very quick period of time in the same life or within one or two generations of terrible dental decay and changes in the in the skull of the animals just from beating them, you know, processed cooked food. And again this is decades before the commercial pet food industry.
8:56 So yeah, yeah, it's it's amazing. And like I said, okay, so I've got a puppy, I started them out. Won't talk about some of the other prevent all the other preventatives, because we cover those on every show anyway, and we don't want we don't want to disturb mystery YouTube out there that doesn't like certain words. But so I noticed that there's a little bit of a build up or my dog has got a little bit of bad breath. Who should they go to? Who should they talk to? And what should the conversation look like? Yeah, you know, well they need to go to people like you or again, holistic veterinarians that aren't stressing the other approaches to preventative healthcare, I mean, the you know, the toxic conventional approaches, and immediately start with a species appropriate diet. That's the cornerstone of it. You know, a rotating raw meat protein diet. And you do that right from the get go, and a lot of time you give them the bones to chew on, and you know, the natural flushing action of that on the teeth, I mean, it's excellent or gum health and a lot of these problems the mild tartar build up and the odor goes away right away. I mean, it's just it doesn't take a lot of fancy dental equipment and antibiotics and chlora hexadine rinses and all the rest of it to make sure that we have a healthy mouth. But certainly when they come to you and me, often there's a lot of pathology there. There's a lot of decay, and we still can you reverse that with with what we do,
10:30 and whether it's with homeopathy or horrible therapies, and I know you talk about all the time topical Manuka honey or coconut oil. You know, we can certainly get on top of a lot of these dental issues before they become really advanced. You know, in today's you know, fast paced world, and with all a bad information that's already been dumped out there. You know, I know that you've run across a few cases recently. I run across it sometimes, and I mean I can get internally, I get very very angry with clients that, well, I can't feed you all. I can't feed just a meat diet. You know, it just doesn't make sense to me because I've been so indoctrinated, and of course they've been indoctrinated with their own foods, you know, which they're shopping in the middle of the supermarket, so they're not even even eating food. But that's another topic as well. But how do we how do you find the best way to get through to them? Sometimes?
11:26 I mean, I mean I just tell them right from the get go, how little and nutrition we get as veterinarians in medical school. And I just start with that. And you know that we get about two hours our third year of venary medical school training and then we were basically graduate with and in our early continuing education where we're told or rhetoric, never give your animals anything from the table or any you know, real food, meat or other foods, and just feed a commercial kibble. And I tell people that it's just we're not trained in that. And then I just say, you know, just take a bag, take a look at the ingredients or they can and see if you can even recognize most of the ingredients that are on there there, they're cryptic and foreign to me.
12:12 I don't even know what they after the meat the more than I do. And if you don't understand what's in your animal's food or your food, then how can you wonder if it's going to be healthy for the animal. So I use kind of discussions like that just you know, introduce the idea of of you know, feeding a more species appropriate diet. I certainly reference you all the time. And you know doctor pitt Aaron before he went over with the but you know that was for different reasons, but you know, he was the original guy back in the seventies, you know, probably around when you were too, but he was one of the original guys that talked about a raw meat diet back then, and so you know, it's it's really something that unfortunately still hasn't changed. I work with young Venanian alongside young veterinarians still and they're worse than ever with the with the big companies, you know, the you know, the Purina and our less with the big companies that you know, get into the vet schools and are still brainwashing young veterinarians. And it's so sad and tragic because it's it's getting it's not getting any better.
13:19 You would think it would after all these years. Yeah, I know I sent you. I think I sent you a link on a podcast guy that spent thirty years with prescription diets and you know, talking about it, and we talk about ingredients and he's talking about the science you have to look at the nutrients and it's always the same tree and you know, we don't know what we're talking about. And that dogs are omnivores. You know, I kind of missed that scientific discovery when they made the change in the you know, genius and species and the family of you know, of where they came from.
14:00 We do know that they can evolve to and it's not really evolution, it's just adaptation to being able to stay alive on you know, other foods because they are a scavengers. Especially the cats are more obblegate. But you know, again we run into that problem with them with the addictive drugs because cats are just so addicted. It's really really challenging to get them sometimes once they've been eating that kibble, you know, it's is sprayed with all the things you mentioned or additives that are you know, included in the food. It's just you know, it's like trying to get a kid off McDonald's or Burger King. Y.
14:41 Yeah, well, when we talk about, okay, the prescription diets and the science behind it, Okay, you're basically putting a dead food into that living mouth that we were just talking about, and you don't have the moas to start breaking down the carbohydrates. What happens when it hits the stomach, it's overload. Yeah, it's just you know, the whole you know, the animals digestive tract did not evolve to handle you know, processed cooked ingredients, and so you're putting a tremendous evolutionary stress on a system that is no different from their wild ancestors, their wild relatives. And so it's it just rex havoc on the digestive tract. And people want to know why we see so much you know, digestive tract disease in our animals and pancreatitis which is so epidemic that diagnosis in our animals, and you know in the allopathic clinics, and a lot of it has to do with just giving them these foods that are just not not what they should be eating.
15:44 You know, when we look at when we look at disease, at the top of our list, of course, you know, the number one cause is stress, and below that you've got toxicity and deficiency, poisoning and basically starvation malnutrition. If the new creants aren't there, we know that they're going to be suffering from that malnutrition part. We've already added the stress in because the buddy doesn't know how to handle it, right. And you know, like you mentioned, what are all those chemicals that are in that boom? You know, and then you know you're right, and then you're starting right. You know, these young they start right when they're young puppies and kittens, and they get their little puppy packs and their kitten packs with the samples of the of the kibble or the or or small can and uh. And then of course when they start as puppies and kittens, they're given all that slew of preventative healthcare, which again we will mention some of it, right, but you know, even the overuse of the wormings and uh, you know in those young animals just causes a tremendous stress on the intestinal track. I had a client, I think you know, I told them. They consulted with me a few weeks ago. Their puppy had hookworms, which I know are up against a break, but maybe we can go into it afterwards. And they're puppy at hookworms, And then they were I spoke with her weeks ago and I told them the heartworm parasite blends some other you know, bee dietimations, there are some other you know, herbs that might be helpful. And so the local veg convinced her
17:17 to use the strangit or the parentel. And the dog, you know, has been wormed several times and still is testing positive for hookworms. So you know, these conventional wormers, you know, they will kill the parasites to some degree, but they cause such havoc in the digestive tract, leading to such an unhealthy gut immune barrier, and then you get eventually overgrowth of these worms. Yeah. Now you know one of the things too, which I had in a discussion with that today with a couple of our clients, that with breeding animals and that sort of thing, and the principle behind traditional Chinese medicines, like with light. Well, if we know that we've got a dog that's going to be given birth or a kid or a cat that's going to be given birth, and you know, nutritionally, you know, we can supplement with whole raw melt, different creams, you know, dairy products, so they have the nutrients to make their own milk. But at the same time, shouldn't they be doing the prevention on the parasites prior to giving birth?
18:25 Exactly? Totally agree. Yeah, you know, if we start a program like that, that's where the prevention really really begins, and we have to be just I don't know, people have got to listen to this part of it. Especially well, we'll be right back after this quick break with a lot more information on this. Does your pets suffer from allergies, cancer, digestive issues, for joint and skin problems.

20:48 Let my Paleo Pet help keep your pet heapier and healthier. And welcome back to the Pet Health Cafe to show where your pet has a voice. This is Bill, the Pet Health Guru, along with my special guests, doctor Michael dim Now before we went to the break who you mentioned client with And then it keeps coming up positive and they keep warming and warming and warming. What happened to the days when you used to take that stool sample and put it under a microscope and check it and either they were there or they weren't. If they weren't, you didn't treat. If they were, you treated. Went back two weeks later, did the same thing, and there's no more.
21:39 You quit. Now they're using they're sending it out for PCR tests that we know don't work. Yeah, they don't work. And it's like they're looking for like pieces of the worm too. It's like they're looking for what I called, you know, pook worm antigen, which is the protein you know, like you said we would look for either the live worms the eggs, you know, the classic hookworm eggs under the microscope, and those animals did wonderfully, you know, we didn't overworm them, we didn't, you know. And nowadays it's just the diagnostic over diagnosis of these things is leading to increased use of these drugs and medicines that you know, ultimately, you know, we're wiping out, you know, other aspects of the digestive trap other than simple hookworms. And you know, and then eventually I see all the time where these animals, you know, with this client are wormed again and again and and they just end up having other systemic issues. This was a husky too, which you know, they have a lot of I've seen a lot of them over the years, seem to have a little bit of a weak digestive track.
22:44 So by doing that to these young animals and creating a leaky gut, we open up such a window to other immune disorders and other problems else who are in the body, because then you get stressed on the liver and the kidneys, you know, other organ systems, and then we end up with you know, chronic other organ problems, and then we have to manage those. Yeah, and when we go back up okay, because we jump a little bit further down the intestinal correct and then we should have but okay that when that food is coming out, okay, two things that I see with kibble, and one is a dog's don't like it for the most part, and instead of doing a meal, if you will, they usually just pick up one or two pieces of kibble walk away, and one or two pieces they're grazing all day long. And by not doing a gorging meal, if you will, and expanding that stomach to releases those digestive enzymes, you end up with that kibble now in the small intestine. Don't you not broken down at all?
23:44 Right? Right? Yeah, yeah, it's not. It's a good point, you know. Instead and you said a kibble here, a kibble there, and then you end up with a line of indigestible, indigestible ingredients that end up leading to all sorts of you know, this iosis in the intestinal tract. As the body tries doesn't know what to do to handle these things, it does, it just doesn't evolve to do it well. The the small intestine isn't really doing very much digestion, is it. Isn't that supposed to happen in the stomach. Well, the stomach is where things are broken, are like, it's kind of digestion does start in the stomach, but it's more of a mechanical breaking down of the food that occurs there, and then the the enzymes and all of that are usually in the beginning of the small test and then you have the creatic ducks that lead into that area and they're contributing the you know, thetic enzymes.
24:35 So it's a it's a it's a synchronous unit that works together, but it does start in the stomach. But the main in my experience, I don't know the way I was taught, maybe it wasn't correct. The main digestion usually starts in the beginning of the of the small intestine, and it's the mechanical churning and breaking of the food that occurs in the stomach. Typically. Yeah, I mean, i'd be I know that big companies have done it, but I know that none of it will ever be released. But how kibble, if you dump it into hydrochloric acid, does a breakdown ord you know, something that will never see And of course we know what happens with you know, animal based products and real foods.
25:20 Real foods start to get broken down right away. Yes, yes, that's very true. So so now we're in a small intestine. We're getting trying to extract things that have names that I don't think the small intestine got the memo as to what these things they're supposed to be doing. Do you No, No, especially when you you know, as I said, most of what I was saying earlier, from the beginning of the Small Testament, once you get into what's called the jet junem and the ilium, which are lowered down you know there, it didn't evolve to handle all that all that undigested kibble that's heading its way. Yeah. Yeah. And of course on the other side of that too, you're talking about dehydrating the body, which dry food on top of it, which so the body's got to tap into hydration reserves someplace else in muscle or in you know, other organs or whatever to try to flush that, aren't they.
26:14 Yeah, yeah, absolutely, And especially as we talk about all the time, and cats you know there, you know, makes them have to drink water, which they they're not a fishing water drinker. Then evolve to drink water, so especially so dehydrating in our feline patients that you know end up coming in hooked on the dry kibble. And of course that dehydration leads to all sorts of other problems like you know, crystals and diabetes and kidney disease, and the list goes on and on. Well too, as the as we know, those of us have been studying this for a while, that when the body gets around different toxins, it creates mucus to wall that off. Now that's obviously going on in the gut.
26:57 When that mucus sticks in the knees or the gall bladder or the bladder deliver and it starts to calcify. That's what you just mentioned. Stones and crystals. You know, we're actually creating the roots for that type of problem, aren't we. Yeah, you put it very well, absolutely the mucus and then you know, the body needs to do something with that, and it does it through the processes you're talking about. Yeah, it's you know, it's it's always such a battle to try to convince people because oh, it's so much easier to dump it, you know, the kibble into a container. Well, first off, it's funny. One of my girls got kind of taken to the woodshed, if you will, on one of the social media thanks for one of the companies out there that's pushing freezed ride. And of course number one, they were making all that is wrong freeze ride raw and that's the equivalent of real raw. And so she brought up the point in its first off, you're feeding a dry food, so you're dehydrating, and they did not want to address that. And then of course, well you know you've got all the live enzymes and everything else in this freezer burned food. No you don't, you know, And so she was taking to the woodshed, you know, and try to justify their point of view. But you know, the marketing catchwords are killing us in many cases like this as well, because people think they're doing the right
28:30 thing and you know, yeah, I feed raw, Okay, what are you doing? Well, I do the freeze rite or I do the raw coded kibble. Well yeah, So anyway, when she was doing this, so she went on chat GPT and asked about the definition of raw and in pet foods and they refer to back that it's not heated, it's not cooked with heat. So therefore freeze ride can be considered raw. You know, there's so much stuff that's been put in already that just goes mainstream obviously. But okay, so we're going through that intestine and now you've got inflammation, you got mucus, You've got lots of inflammation going on, trying to break out nutrients. We know that we're now going to be nutrient deficient if you will, because a lot of the stuff can't be drawn out.
29:25 You know. When like I said, when I listen to these thing these podcasts on the prescription diets, you know, you can buy aluminum supplements or you can buy a magnesium supplement in probably eight or ten different forms. You know, magnesium stair rate is not absorbed into the body. It uses a lubricant in you know, supplements. So you look at the package though and say, oh yeah, plenty of magnesium. You know, it's in every supplement that I have out there. But if it's not in the right form, which is usually a whole food form, what is the digestibility? Yeah, I'm very high. Yeah, I mean I was looking at as somebody had done a chart on different magnesium supplements and the usability supposedly even with the better ones varied anywhere from ten percent to only thirty percent, and so you know what's what's the other seventy percent?
30:22 Yeah, yeah, you say all the time. It's like the subterment business is, you know, with all the fillers in there, that all the other ingredients that go into these products, you know, the magnesium, it's not not observable, not usable, and then the body has to process all the fillers all that. Yeah. Now, and because of course so many of these chemicals are poisons and toxins of course, and then we've been poisoning with the warming medications and everything else. Now you don't have any good living bacteria left in the gut for the most part. And when you look again at the supplement industry, the various robiotic products that are up there, they're only mentioning you know, four or five basic you know strains, and the body actually needs hundreds thousands, you know, basically, I mean each one of these strains of probiotics are working on individual components of food and to break them down and to help with utilization carry it into the body. But yet we're going to limit it very very much. And it's and of course then you have to ask how was that probiotic process. You know, we're seeing more and more on the human side with you know, even using some of the probiotic supplements to make your own yogurts and things like that if you want very specific strains, because you can multiply the amount literally in a couple of days by thousands of times and it's going to be much, you know, much better.
31:52 Of course, we use a lot of dairy for UH as a probiotic, and just like on the foods, we recommend that rotation. You know, one day, you know, one week he'll do cow's mouth, another week he'll do goat' smeuth go keifer. You know. And you know, I had one end today that I won't drink the kifer, won't drink the milk, but he absolutely loves the raw goat cheese. It's like the knocked your. Slops off, you know that. Yeah, yeah, any way that you can and that and that's just it. Our pets. Many times when we make these switches on dyet, they don't recognize it even has a food because they've never been you know, it's never been presented before and until they worked us their way through, you know, it's going to be a challenge of making a transition.
32:39 And I know you're adding bone broth too, so that's. Yeah exactly, which is good for gleeky got. We're gonna be right back after this quick break.

34:47 And that's really what we're looking at today. You know, the whole, the whole part of getting this the body built up starts in the digestive track, and we got they have the good bacteria. We don't want to destroy it with anything that we can help it. We have to look at species appropriateness of the foods and botanicals and herbs that we use. Uh. You know a lot of a lot of your colleagues. Uh Doctor Dim will say, okay, yeah, we'll give you the uh the raw diet thing you know, just so we don't make waves. But they don't season their food. But they also don't drink out of Zephyr Hill bottles either. They're drinking out of poddles and ponds. And these are loaded with minerals and different botanicals, aren't they.
35:32 Absolutely? Yeah, you know when you look at you know, you know me and my recommendations for spur leina and Corella algae. You know, the middle of summer, every pond is covered in green ponds gum, and you know the dogs are in there swimming. You know, we have to watch out about the you know, the toxic algaees, but uh, you know, in a natural, good fresh water, they're swimming in it. It's on their fur, they lick themselves off, they dry themselves off, and they're fine. You know, my hunting dogs that they couldn't wait to get in the water. What about garda bill you know that's that one man. Yeah, that's another big one another, you know, along with hookworms. You know that's uh, you know, found in every angle through testing of every different type. Now you know, yes, every animal has gari. That's and of course they say, oh they got them from drinking, you know, pond water, puddle water, along with getting their dose of leptosporosis, all these other fear based you.
36:29 Know, exactly, And basically, if you treat the gut right and you build up an immune system, how susceptible are the animals to any of these diseases? Exactly? I mean, how many cases of lepto have you seen in your career? Not many? And it's and that's a big you know, now, the the local ers and the interness are all pushing, yeah, we haventleto and it's a real disease. And the late doctor Ron Schultz used to call leptosporosis lepto mania, you know, you know, just a crazy obsession with something that's not really very common clinically in our animal pation. And the body is designed to fight it. I mean, that's the whole thing. I mean, even when we talk about heartworms, it's the same thing. I mean, those those larvae got to swim up through the bloodstream and if you've got a healthy bloodstream, they're just going to destroy it and it's not going to not going to be there.
37:22 I did just to bring in something that's of course up to date, since we're talking about all the old ways that we used to get away with things, you know, like microscopes and things like that. I got to notice today, being a raw food manufacturer, cook food manufacturer of real foods, that the FDA has ordered the testing labs not to test for avian pet foods for avian flu. And the whole point of it is if you're testing comes back negative, you're going to put a banner on your bag or on your package is tested and negative for a v and flu. And it's a marketing technique. But the big boys that cooked things at two thousand degrees forever, you know, they don't they don't have to know. But the FDA actually sent out to the labs I notice, not to test it. They've got the testing available. Yeah, And it's funny because I have to have our foods tested for different things, you know, every year anyway, and on different cycles.
38:31 And it's like when I say so, it's like, you know, this game has got to stop. You know. Definitely not impartial, for sure, it's not a not a good referee, not a good umpire referee. No, absolutely. And of course one of the other things too that I wanted to kind of throw in here is I watched a great breakdown on chemtrails and weather modification and all that and how pervasive it is and what that's actually doing to every single living creature on the planet. I mean, you know, we know that we're being sprayed with toxic aluminum. The e p A has deemed the safe amount of toxic elemental aluminum for all species of plants and animals at zero.
39:22 Wow. Now you know, and don't we don't talk about it, but one of the preventions that that allopathic ve's used all the time is loaded with that aluminum. And of course that's also you know, it's that toxic that's going to kill off the good that bacteria as well. Absolutely, and the aluminum does so much more. I mean, as a heavy metal there's so much more of the body. I mean, you know, and multiple organ systems slows everything down, and you know, it leads to all sorts of gi issues with constipation and and you know, any heavy metal like that is just that'stress for the body. The all you have to do is look at the There's a homeopathic remedy called alumina which if you read the remedy, it gives you the symptoms of what toxicity of aluminum does in the body, and definitely with the GI track, it's it's tremendous.
40:14 Yeah. Yeah. Now the other thing is, of course, as we move further down, you know that digestive track that you get all the time. I get it all the time. You know IBD, you know ib as. You know, bloody diarrhea something obviously, my dog is dying, my cat is dying. You know. Stool is hard, stool is black, stool is to lose, it's watery. All those things are an indication that something that went in the front end is messed up. I mean, I can't think of a better way of putting it. You're putting the wrong stuff in. You know. My classic example of an answer is my dog has got irritable bowel. Yeah, what can you do for it?
40:54 Quit irritating it, because. Yeah, so it does. The big disease that it's like epidemic again with pancreatitis is something we call on the allopathic conventional clinic hGe, which stands for hemorrhagic gastroenteritis, and so many animals come in if they have the blood in their stool like that. There, you know, as we talk about all the time, they're so overtreated with all sorts of drugs to suppress it and medications and lab work and some much that is just the body doing what it's supposed to do. They just need support, you know, to help the body detoxify. Well that's the other thing too, is you know, when if you're going run into the emergency room, because that's where they always send you with diarrhea vomiting, the first thing that the alopaths want to do is plug the body up. And when you do that, aren't you effectively keeping that poison inside the body?
41:48 Right? Yeah, There was a study a few decades ago with Parlow that the more drugs that were used to treat it in the thousands of dollars of diagnostic and therapeutic interventions that were done on these animals, the more drugs, the poor the prognosis. So the more we try to plug it up through stopping the diarrhea and stopping the vomiting, the more the animals died from parvo. So it goes right along with what you're saying. Yeah, yeah, it's exactly true. But you know, with the assault that's basically going in through that one entrance to that body is causing all these problems, and of course, as you mentioned, you know, it has an effect on the liver and the kidney and you know, the adrenal gland and you know, you know, and when we then throw in some of the other procedures, you know, the spay and neuter, which screws up the into crims system. Anyway, we are actually creating it with the blessing of modern medicine.
42:41 Right. And then you know, when you go down to the lower bowel bill of where we are and the colon is just you know, is whether it's an irritable colon or the opposite we see in epidemic measures in both cats and dogs, is where the colon doesn't work very well anymore. It becomes you know, the nerves become damaged and they become you know, the cast developed mega colon, and bugs developed their version of chronic constipation. And what do they blame? They blame you know, I know you probably get this. They say, Oh, it's the raw diet that's making them. Yeah, yeah, it's uh, you know, that's what that's what we're up again. It's okay, I don't know what again with this hour went. I mean, it was I think we covered basically from the mouth to the butt, which is what our goal was. We've told you, told head owners and people out there what they exactly they have to do, and it's up to them to start doing it.
