00:00:41.759 --> 00:00:43.920
And welcome to the Pet Health Cafe, the show where
9
00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:45.920
your Pet Has a Voice. This is Bill the Pet
10
00:00:45.960 --> 00:00:49.280
Health Guru, along with a special guest. In this week,
11
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.799
I'm going to have after Michael Dim, how you doing.
12
00:00:52.359 --> 00:00:54.439
I'm doing well, Bill, how are you doing this week?
13
00:00:54.600 --> 00:00:54.719
Uh?
14
00:00:55.159 --> 00:00:58.759
Frustrating week? Frustrating? That's all I can say. As always,
15
00:00:58.759 --> 00:01:00.359
like in the beginning of the show, I want everybody
16
00:01:00.439 --> 00:01:04.239
to share. Go on to your groups and share. Tell
17
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:06.480
you your buddies to get on and listen to this
18
00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:09.000
because we're gonna be diving into a lot of stuff.
19
00:01:09.040 --> 00:01:11.560
It's actually a part two of a two part series.
20
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:13.840
Didn't start out that way. But you know, I just
21
00:01:13.840 --> 00:01:16.400
can't get doctor Dim to keep quiet. Sometimes it just
22
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:20.000
keeps talking, talking, talking, until the hour's gone. Not that
23
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:25.200
I contribute to anything obviously, but it go ahead and
24
00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:28.439
have them share, watch it, and then of course like
25
00:01:28.560 --> 00:01:31.640
it and subscribe. That's important. Like to see your comments
26
00:01:31.680 --> 00:01:34.920
in the in the chat room. That's always important, even
27
00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:38.040
if it's just saying hi. But I know a lot
28
00:01:38.079 --> 00:01:40.959
of you have questions out there. We will be talking
29
00:01:40.959 --> 00:01:42.400
about seizures again.
30
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:43.359
Uh.
31
00:01:43.480 --> 00:01:48.319
Last last week we went through a lot of the
32
00:01:48.439 --> 00:01:51.400
drug and you know, the toxins in the in the
33
00:01:51.519 --> 00:01:55.280
nutritional part. That was really really important, didn't we doc.
34
00:01:55.519 --> 00:01:58.959
Yeah, yeah, we went through some of the general causes
35
00:01:59.120 --> 00:02:03.159
and the factor from food to external that are involved
36
00:02:03.159 --> 00:02:03.920
with the seizures.
37
00:02:03.959 --> 00:02:06.680
Yet yeah, so I think you know what we didn't
38
00:02:06.680 --> 00:02:08.039
get a chance to get into is some of the
39
00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:11.919
very very specifics last week. And I know I did
40
00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:14.960
get some feedback from a few people, and of course,
41
00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:16.360
you you know, even at the end of the show,
42
00:02:16.360 --> 00:02:18.599
we might you know, you mentioned that, you know, we
43
00:02:18.759 --> 00:02:22.039
pro probably have to keep this conversation going because it's
44
00:02:22.080 --> 00:02:24.360
still a lot more information on it, isn't there.
45
00:02:24.680 --> 00:02:29.520
Yes, absolutely, yeah, And these and these cases just keep increasing,
46
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:33.120
you know, across my steps, across my door anyway, I mean,
47
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:37.120
just more and more seizuring animals. It's just really showing
48
00:02:37.159 --> 00:02:40.960
you how toxic really build our animals are, and how
49
00:02:41.000 --> 00:02:43.400
toxic our environment is, and how toxic it is that
50
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:46.840
we're what they're being exposed to. And you know, all
51
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:49.599
of those are playing a role in seizure folk.
52
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:52.439
You know, yeah, you know, as I mentioned to you
53
00:02:52.599 --> 00:02:54.360
before the show, I mean I had I've had a
54
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:56.719
rough week and I've been doing a little bit of
55
00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:01.000
battle with some of the clients because the the information
56
00:03:01.039 --> 00:03:06.719
they're getting from their allopathic veterinarians, it's getting that the
57
00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:10.759
claims are being much more exaggerated, that they have to
58
00:03:10.800 --> 00:03:15.280
follow pro certain protocols and certain procedures and certain preventions.
59
00:03:15.319 --> 00:03:18.719
If you will and if you don't, we're not going
60
00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:22.080
to treat your animal. Even though you know some of
61
00:03:22.120 --> 00:03:25.719
these things and you're aware of them. The inserts that
62
00:03:25.840 --> 00:03:30.240
go into these products, the warnings talk about adverse events,
63
00:03:30.280 --> 00:03:33.000
but those are not really adverse events. That's the actual
64
00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:38.680
event that if it's in an more extreme amount, that
65
00:03:38.840 --> 00:03:43.680
it's actually going to cause. And the warning labels say
66
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:46.840
do not give it to an unhealthy animal. Well, if
67
00:03:46.879 --> 00:03:50.120
you're in there because your animal is sick, why would
68
00:03:50.120 --> 00:03:52.280
these be demanded If.
69
00:03:52.199 --> 00:03:55.520
You will about the injections or the topical world.
70
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:57.280
Yeah, actually all of them.
71
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:00.879
I mean, you know, well, I mean, you know, there's
72
00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:03.919
I mean the only there's only one injection that's legally
73
00:04:03.960 --> 00:04:07.159
required in the state of Florida, and you know, if
74
00:04:07.199 --> 00:04:11.319
the animal's ill, then you know, they're exempt from these things.
75
00:04:11.479 --> 00:04:14.199
That's legally what the law says we're allowed to do.
76
00:04:14.319 --> 00:04:17.160
So you know, I write medical exemptions all the time
77
00:04:17.199 --> 00:04:21.560
for animals that you know, can't handle legally required injections,
78
00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:24.920
and you know, I I you know, I think it's
79
00:04:24.920 --> 00:04:27.920
so important because the role that these things play in
80
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.560
chronic disease and especially seizures, it's just it's just tremendous.
81
00:04:31.560 --> 00:04:35.399
But you're right, the vets won't see these animals often
82
00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:38.360
without you know, giving these things, and then we'll evaluate
83
00:04:38.439 --> 00:04:41.959
your seizuring animal or or your animal diarrhea or vomiting
84
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:44.680
or you know, and it's just it's just so tragic.
85
00:04:44.839 --> 00:04:48.279
And I really think I'm hoping in the future the
86
00:04:48.319 --> 00:04:51.839
profession will eventually crack down, I mean, not the profession,
87
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:55.240
the clients will come together and hopefully be able to
88
00:04:55.279 --> 00:04:58.759
get some new legislation change to you know, to get
89
00:04:58.839 --> 00:04:59.959
rid of these like.
90
00:05:00.199 --> 00:05:03.759
Well, part of the problem with a lot of these
91
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:11.480
is not even legislation. It's actually procedures and that are
92
00:05:11.519 --> 00:05:17.439
put in through the veterinary boards. And it's not necessarily
93
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:20.360
a statewide program. It could be it could be just
94
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:25.120
a community thing that they've gone to a town, just
95
00:05:25.199 --> 00:05:27.959
like the cleanup laws. You know, when they started adding
96
00:05:27.959 --> 00:05:31.319
stool hardeners to the dog food so that the proop
97
00:05:31.439 --> 00:05:33.000
was hard, so you had to clean it up. And
98
00:05:33.000 --> 00:05:37.279
then they went and literally petitioned the towns to make
99
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:42.399
that a requirement to pick up. And of course they
100
00:05:42.439 --> 00:05:45.800
said it was for public health reasons. And I saw
101
00:05:45.920 --> 00:05:49.600
just saw recently that in Massachusetts are trying to they're
102
00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:53.600
trying to bar veterinarians from talking about public health.
103
00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:56.839
Interesting, it's you.
104
00:05:56.759 --> 00:05:59.639
Know, they made it this a big issue, and of course,
105
00:05:59.879 --> 00:06:02.480
you know as well as I do every every animal
106
00:06:02.519 --> 00:06:05.199
clinic probably in the country, when you go in, you
107
00:06:05.240 --> 00:06:07.120
better take a stool sample because we have to check
108
00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:11.480
for parasites because humans can get them too, and even
109
00:06:11.480 --> 00:06:13.800
if they're even if the testing comes back negative, they're
110
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:16.040
so you know, doing the procedures to get rid of
111
00:06:16.040 --> 00:06:18.079
them and all of that. And yet then you go in,
112
00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:23.120
you leave the veterinarian's office, you go to your health
113
00:06:23.399 --> 00:06:28.439
practitioner for yourself, you're talking about your dog and your cats,
114
00:06:28.680 --> 00:06:32.319
and did they ask for a stool sample from you
115
00:06:32.399 --> 00:06:35.000
to check? Did they even bring up it as a
116
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:35.879
health issue?
117
00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:38.160
No, No at all.
118
00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:41.480
So if it's that important, wouldn't it be on both sides?
119
00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:44.839
I would agree with that bill, you would think. But
120
00:06:45.480 --> 00:06:48.959
it's not certainly a consistent standard, that's for sure.
121
00:06:49.360 --> 00:06:52.800
Yeah, exactly. So anyway, now that you're back on the
122
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:54.879
now that I did by little rant, you know, and
123
00:06:55.000 --> 00:06:57.879
you know that, you know, you've just got to keep
124
00:06:57.920 --> 00:07:00.120
asking the whyse, the whyse, the wise when you're in
125
00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:00.920
in the offense.
126
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:03.000
Well, I mean, and it's you know, the other thing
127
00:07:03.040 --> 00:07:04.439
just back to what you're saying is like, you know
128
00:07:04.480 --> 00:07:07.079
what happens is is you know, the vets they want
129
00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:09.720
to a lot of them want to make money. You know,
130
00:07:09.800 --> 00:07:12.240
That's how they're paid by how much money they generate.
131
00:07:12.279 --> 00:07:15.199
A lot of the corporate owned vet practices they're paid
132
00:07:15.240 --> 00:07:18.240
by the veterinarians are paid by how much they generate,
133
00:07:18.399 --> 00:07:20.560
so a lot of it. So even if you come
134
00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:24.000
in with that sick animal, they're going to push the
135
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:27.920
preventative care. They're just you know, and the testing, so
136
00:07:28.480 --> 00:07:30.120
you know, in other words, they want to make money,
137
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:32.879
and so they're you know, they're looking for Hey, what's
138
00:07:32.920 --> 00:07:33.839
this animal do for?
139
00:07:34.120 --> 00:07:34.360
Hey?
140
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:37.240
What you know? Is this animal on heartworm medicine or
141
00:07:37.279 --> 00:07:39.920
flea medicine or what you're feeding? And oh no, you
142
00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:41.959
can't be feeding out. It's just you know, and here
143
00:07:41.959 --> 00:07:44.600
this poor animals coming in with either a seizure problem
144
00:07:44.720 --> 00:07:48.000
or a digestive issue or skin or ear problem, and
145
00:07:48.199 --> 00:07:53.000
they're being talked into you know, these these dressers that
146
00:07:53.199 --> 00:07:56.959
only make their presenting condition worse exactly.
147
00:07:57.279 --> 00:08:01.720
Now, just a quick on this whole thing, because we're
148
00:08:01.720 --> 00:08:04.399
talking about seizures and you mentioned, you know that a
149
00:08:04.480 --> 00:08:07.360
lot of these issues that that we see all the time,
150
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:10.720
a lot of are digestive issues. Are some of these
151
00:08:10.920 --> 00:08:14.920
digestive issues actually gut seizures.
152
00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:18.879
I do believe that absolutely the gut has got more
153
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:23.040
serotonin and neurotransmitters than the in the brain, even in
154
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:25.600
terms of you know, where where in the body you
155
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:28.920
find these things. So when the gut goes into spasm
156
00:08:29.199 --> 00:08:33.159
or you know, imbalance, there are they are similar to
157
00:08:33.279 --> 00:08:35.799
like you know, they are their own version of a seizure.
158
00:08:36.159 --> 00:08:38.279
You know, the gut is its own brain, and it's
159
00:08:38.360 --> 00:08:41.559
connected to the other brain, and that's the gateway to
160
00:08:41.600 --> 00:08:43.559
the rest of the body and all the stressors that
161
00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:45.720
you know we're talking about or that we talk about
162
00:08:45.759 --> 00:08:49.559
on the show, just reek havoc on that gut nervous
163
00:08:49.559 --> 00:08:53.200
system and that gut, that that microbiome of the gut,
164
00:08:53.279 --> 00:08:55.600
and and that just sets up a shop for just
165
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:59.120
chronic illness and not just the brain, but a lot
166
00:08:59.159 --> 00:09:01.879
of other organs, I mean pretty much any one of
167
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:04.000
them in the body, you know, from you know, the
168
00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:07.960
skin and the and the heart, the kidneys, the uriner,
169
00:09:08.039 --> 00:09:10.159
you know, the liver. I mean, it's just you know,
170
00:09:10.240 --> 00:09:12.360
so the gut is really where it's at built and
171
00:09:12.399 --> 00:09:14.360
you know that way, that's why we stress food and
172
00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:20.879
herbs ands and you know, and so you know, it's
173
00:09:20.919 --> 00:09:25.000
it's really that's where the most important focus, you know.
174
00:09:25.039 --> 00:09:26.840
And I had a client and yesterday I said, it
175
00:09:26.919 --> 00:09:29.320
starts with the food they were feeding, one of the
176
00:09:29.320 --> 00:09:33.320
prescription diet you know, actually a GI diet that was
177
00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:37.799
called biome and and the animal came in with anxiety
178
00:09:37.879 --> 00:09:42.360
and neurologic symptoms, not seizures, but tremendous anxiety. Couldn't sit still,
179
00:09:42.399 --> 00:09:44.879
whether it was while I was taking the history, you know,
180
00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:47.879
a collie, And the first thing I said there is
181
00:09:47.919 --> 00:09:51.440
it starts with the gut, and it starts with appropriate diet.
182
00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:54.200
So and then we have to see what what's left
183
00:09:54.240 --> 00:09:54.679
after that.
184
00:09:54.960 --> 00:09:57.559
So you know, I mean if you when you said
185
00:09:57.600 --> 00:10:00.360
something seizure has been kind of just a you know,
186
00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:03.879
assigned to the as a brain type problem, but in
187
00:10:04.080 --> 00:10:06.639
realistic you know, just talking about the gut. I mean,
188
00:10:06.759 --> 00:10:09.159
you know, if your if your gut, if your intestines
189
00:10:09.200 --> 00:10:12.759
having a seizure, or your colon's having a seizure. You know,
190
00:10:13.159 --> 00:10:16.320
they treated it as something totally different. Now, what about
191
00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:21.440
certain heart issues, you know, rhythm and things of that
192
00:10:21.600 --> 00:10:25.639
sort of thing. But isn't it possibly that a seizure
193
00:10:25.679 --> 00:10:26.200
of the heart.
194
00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:29.840
Yeah, I mean the heart is I was reading something
195
00:10:29.879 --> 00:10:33.759
this week and that talked about the heart not being
196
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:37.720
this mechanical pump figure, but as an energetic center in
197
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:42.519
the body and is definitely predisposed to you know, those
198
00:10:42.519 --> 00:10:45.080
a rhythmias that are there. That's the heart version of
199
00:10:45.120 --> 00:10:47.639
a seizure. It's an out of control rhythm where the
200
00:10:47.679 --> 00:10:50.120
heart is out of control. So what's the definition of
201
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:53.559
a seizure. It's loss of control of neural impulses. And
202
00:10:53.559 --> 00:10:55.759
so they see that with heart issues and a rhythmy
203
00:10:55.879 --> 00:10:58.559
is and disease are the heart. So it's very it's
204
00:10:58.679 --> 00:10:59.519
the same thing.
205
00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:03.120
Yet they're handled totally different. When you're looking at the
206
00:11:03.159 --> 00:11:06.919
medical profession, you know, they're not addressing it there like
207
00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:09.960
you say, they're addressing it as a separate entity that
208
00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:11.639
has nothing to do with the body.
209
00:11:12.080 --> 00:11:15.879
No, yeah, not at all. And you know, the heart
210
00:11:15.960 --> 00:11:19.480
is getting a lot of you know, the you know,
211
00:11:19.960 --> 00:11:22.919
recent attention in the world of holistic medicine in terms
212
00:11:22.919 --> 00:11:26.000
of you know, the heart brain connection too, that there's
213
00:11:26.039 --> 00:11:28.000
a you know that they have to be in sync
214
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:30.759
and if they're not and they're not coordinating with each other,
215
00:11:30.879 --> 00:11:33.000
then you get disease of either. You know that they
216
00:11:33.000 --> 00:11:35.200
communicate with each other, and you get diseases of the
217
00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:38.320
of the heart, disease of the brain. And it's not
218
00:11:38.480 --> 00:11:41.840
just some mechanical pump that just works separate from the
219
00:11:41.840 --> 00:11:44.080
rest of the body that pumps blood out to the tissues.
220
00:11:44.120 --> 00:11:48.919
It's actually an energetic an energetic essence that lives in
221
00:11:48.960 --> 00:11:52.200
our body that that's part of our whole being, and
222
00:11:52.240 --> 00:11:55.080
it's all one unit. Bill, It's there's not Yes, they're
223
00:11:55.080 --> 00:11:57.919
a part for the sake of discussion, but what what
224
00:11:58.080 --> 00:12:03.120
filters through our body is one uniform energy, and when
225
00:12:03.320 --> 00:12:06.440
any one part is out of balance, that affects the whole,
226
00:12:06.639 --> 00:12:07.679
the whole organism.
227
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:11.720
So well, I had a client asked me about plasma
228
00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:17.399
infusions and that sort of thing and like to help
229
00:12:17.399 --> 00:12:21.759
build antibodies. Well, the blood is basically just a transport system,
230
00:12:21.799 --> 00:12:24.799
isn't it. It's not really doing the healing. It's taking
231
00:12:24.840 --> 00:12:27.519
the good stuff where it's supposed to be and taking
232
00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:29.159
the bad stuff away, isn't it.
233
00:12:29.519 --> 00:12:32.759
Yeah. Yeah, and it's being filtered out by the spleen,
234
00:12:32.919 --> 00:12:35.080
you know, which is an organ that deals with filtering
235
00:12:35.080 --> 00:12:38.360
out you know, toxins and old blood cells. So yes,
236
00:12:38.480 --> 00:12:42.320
it definitely it's a transport system as you put it.
237
00:12:42.440 --> 00:12:45.840
Yeah, yeah, you know. And so I mean all these
238
00:12:45.840 --> 00:12:49.240
things that have to work together. Now, a question that
239
00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:52.000
did come up. You know, of course, we talked a
240
00:12:52.039 --> 00:12:55.399
lot about triggers last week. Different you know, it's not
241
00:12:55.480 --> 00:13:01.000
about specific foods, not about specific herbs. It's that overall
242
00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:04.799
toxicity that's caused by so many different things. I was
243
00:13:04.799 --> 00:13:08.840
listening to a podcast this morning, nutrition and food studies,
