6
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:46.960

00:00:50.240 --> 00:00:53.679
host, doctor Michael Dim. How
are we doing tonight? Doc doing well?
9
00:00:53.679 --> 00:00:57.359
Bill? How's it going? Oh, it's where's the year ago?
10
00:00:59.439 --> 00:01:03.480
I mean, you know it's it's
just about over. And you know,
11
00:01:04.400 --> 00:01:11.079
we start another one that you know, in what three weeks basically, and
12
00:01:11.879 --> 00:01:15.920
you know, as always, you
know, we want to invite our listeners
13
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:22.879
and our you know, audience to
subscribe and share and like these podcasts so
14
00:01:22.879 --> 00:01:26.280
that we can get our algorithms up. As always, the chat is open
15
00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:30.719
so you we can take your questions
and we encourage you to do so.
16
00:01:32.640 --> 00:01:37.319
And other than that, I mean, it's a miserable night down here in
17
00:01:37.359 --> 00:01:42.040
South Florida, and we got two
storms merging basically together, and there's nothing
18
00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:47.959
but terrible weather for taking our dogs
and leaving our cats outside, isn't it.
19
00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:52.280
Yeah. It's real windy out there
tonight, that's for sure. Yeah,
20
00:01:52.480 --> 00:01:53.879
I know the dog. The dog
didn't want to go out. I
21
00:01:53.879 --> 00:01:57.519
mean, it's like, I'm not
going to get wet, and I don't
22
00:01:57.519 --> 00:02:00.239
care what I do. I'm just
not gonna go out, right, right
23
00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:06.159
of course, Yeah, yeah,
they know it's Yeah. So anyway,
24
00:02:06.200 --> 00:02:10.599
tonight we want to get into the
subject of skin and coat problems, because
25
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:17.520
isn't that one of the top reasons
that veterinarians see clients. You know,
26
00:02:17.520 --> 00:02:22.759
it's up there at the top,
maybe two or three. Yeah, absolutely,
27
00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:27.120
Skin and ear allergies are definitely up
there. Is the number one reason
28
00:02:27.159 --> 00:02:30.680
why people bring their animals to the
conventional vet. And uh, you know
29
00:02:30.759 --> 00:02:37.400
that usually involves you know, inflammation
of the ears, but also itching and
30
00:02:37.599 --> 00:02:44.759
hot spots and you know, fur
loss and definitely a common reason, you
31
00:02:44.800 --> 00:02:46.800
know, next to wellness visits.
So it's it's at the top of the
32
00:02:46.879 --> 00:02:51.479
list, sure, coat and skin
problems, yeah, I mean, and
33
00:02:51.479 --> 00:02:55.240
and you know, from our perspective, obviously we look at it quite a
34
00:02:55.240 --> 00:03:00.840
bit differently than the lopathic vets do. But I mean it basically as an
35
00:03:00.879 --> 00:03:05.599
exterior problem, you know, I
mean there's so many different things out there.
36
00:03:05.639 --> 00:03:09.759
Look, you mentioned hotspots and flea
bite, Germans heightis and you know,
37
00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:20.520
just general scratching and itching allergies,
and it's just a reflection, in
38
00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:24.080
my mind, is a reflection of
really what's going on inside the body,
39
00:03:24.120 --> 00:03:30.360
isn't it? Absolutely sure we talk
about toxicity and you know, reactions all
40
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:35.199
the time, and then the the
lesions coming through the skin or the ears.
41
00:03:35.879 --> 00:03:38.479
So you know, that's certainly the
top thing that you know, we
42
00:03:38.520 --> 00:03:43.199
look at from a functional medicine perspective
and from a homeopathic perspective, we look
43
00:03:43.240 --> 00:03:46.960
at imbalances of the whole body,
the symptom totality of the patient, not
44
00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:53.120
just a local manifestation of symptoms.
So it's definitely more than just the way
45
00:03:53.159 --> 00:04:00.840
the allopathic community looks at as some
sort of overactive immune response to vironmental or
46
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:05.159
dietary allergens. And then you know, the treatments are pretty simple, simple,
47
00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:12.639
you know, with dietary sensitivities or
what they presume is that they change
48
00:04:12.680 --> 00:04:18.199
their diets to process prescription foods.
Sometimes what are called hydrolyzed protein diets,
49
00:04:18.240 --> 00:04:25.560
which are diets that are broken down
into you know, synthetic proteins that have
50
00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:30.439
you know, low molecular weights so
that they don't react to them. And
51
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:35.120
you know, with the skin,
in with the with the definition of allergic
52
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:41.240
dermatitis, what we see with they
call it atopic disease. You know,
53
00:04:41.360 --> 00:04:48.160
usually giving drugs like steroids and antibiotics
to treat the secondary infections. And you
54
00:04:48.199 --> 00:04:53.680
know, in the newer drugs now, the apoquels and the cited point shots,
55
00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:58.560
all of these just suppress the symptoms
and don't really get at the the
56
00:04:58.639 --> 00:05:01.639
root core issues as we talk about. Yeah, I remember back, you
57
00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:06.079
know, going back in my history, the skin problems and that sort of
58
00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:12.720
thing. In the very beginning,
of course, steroids were used quite a
59
00:05:12.759 --> 00:05:17.800
bit, sometimes antibiotics as well,
but all kinds of chemical concoction shampoos and
60
00:05:17.879 --> 00:05:28.040
conditioners and topical treatments that in many
cases actually exasperated the problem because it was
61
00:05:28.120 --> 00:05:33.680
usually a very harsh shampoo base.
Because the prevailing wisdom was we want to
62
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:41.360
take off all that that protective oil
that the body produces to protect itself and
63
00:05:41.439 --> 00:05:46.959
let the medication in these medicated shampoos
kind of soak in. I mean,
64
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:51.639
you know, and you know,
I mean they were using all kinds of
65
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:58.279
you know, every the tea tree
and oatmeal and cammameal and you know in
66
00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:01.439
the shampoos, which of course those
are or at least more natural type products,
67
00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:05.959
but when you use it on a
shampoo base, that's very harsh.
68
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:10.160
It was just a continuous cycle that
we would have, you know, the
69
00:06:10.199 --> 00:06:13.759
dog would get a little bit of
relief for two three weeks, and then
70
00:06:13.839 --> 00:06:18.199
of course that the body's trying to
repair itself and the itching just came right
71
00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:21.439
back. And it was a continuous
cycle, month after month after month after
72
00:06:21.480 --> 00:06:29.959
months of shampooing it. You know, the animals never really healed, did
73
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:32.800
they. No, No, it's
like an allopathic medicine. They keep coming
74
00:06:32.839 --> 00:06:39.399
back for the same problems over and
over again, never really resolving. It
75
00:06:39.439 --> 00:06:42.040
just deemed that this is what the
way it is, and this is the
76
00:06:42.040 --> 00:06:46.279
way we have to treat our animals, and you know, it's a vicious
77
00:06:46.279 --> 00:06:51.199
cycle. And the modern allopathic shampoos
are usually strong, you know, anti
78
00:06:51.240 --> 00:07:00.000
fungal, antibacterial, chemical based.
Obviously, the chlorohexiderm shampoos, the very
79
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:06.040
anti fungal ketoconazole type shampoos that you
know, really go into really you know,
80
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:10.639
not only just trying to combat the
overgrowth of bacteria on the skin or
81
00:07:10.680 --> 00:07:14.360
the yeast, but really affect you
know, get absorbed into the body and
82
00:07:14.399 --> 00:07:18.360
can to affect the you know,
the detoxification mechanisms. And you know,
83
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:25.399
chlorohexidine is actually you know, known
to be a carcinogen even if it's a
84
00:07:25.439 --> 00:07:30.040
prolonged contact. So yeah, these
are harsh medicines for sure. Yeah.
85
00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:33.000
And of course, you know,
you know, some of the our clients
86
00:07:33.040 --> 00:07:36.839
that think they're going to do a
more holistic job, not realizing that that
87
00:07:38.800 --> 00:07:42.519
scratching and itching and even the excess
of hair loss and stuff like that as
88
00:07:42.639 --> 00:07:46.040
toxins coming out of the body.
They figure, oh well, I'll sue
89
00:07:46.120 --> 00:07:50.720
that and they'll use something more natural
like coconut oil or you know, other
90
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:56.560
types of oils, and that's basically
plugging up those pores just as badly and
91
00:07:56.639 --> 00:08:01.160
doing almost as much damages some of
these chemics, doesn't it. Yeah,
92
00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:03.759
No, sure it does. I
mean, like you said, they might
93
00:08:03.800 --> 00:08:09.040
be soothing, but it's definitely trying
to It's definitely the end result is suppressing
94
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:13.920
the outlet output of the you know, the the expression of the exterior you
95
00:08:13.920 --> 00:08:18.680
know, symptoms, which doesn't really
get at the cause. Sure, you
96
00:08:18.680 --> 00:08:22.319
know, coconut oil is a wonderful
soothing agent, and it's wonderful used orally.
97
00:08:22.839 --> 00:08:28.120
You know, it's a natural antibacterial, any viral, but it definitely
98
00:08:28.160 --> 00:08:31.959
can be overused, you know,
yeah, exactly, And of course you
99
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:35.279
know it's quite often we get the
hair loss with that because as those toxins
100
00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:41.919
are coming out of the skin,
it's actually poisoning the hair follicles, isn't
101
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:46.440
it. Yeah, yeah, I
mean, yeah, you're using again these
102
00:08:46.440 --> 00:08:48.879
strong toxins. It affects the you
know, the hair file, you know,
103
00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:54.799
the hair foules, and that's the
outlet the body uses right to rid
104
00:08:54.840 --> 00:08:56.519
itself of these things. And you
know, like you said, we're plugging
105
00:08:56.559 --> 00:09:01.919
them up, doing the opposite.
Yeah, you know, of course,
106
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:03.600
our approach is quite different. You
know, we're looking at it from the
107
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:07.799
internal basis. And of course,
as we mentioned, you know, good
108
00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:13.799
nutrition, one of the things that
the body needs for good skin and coat
109
00:09:15.120 --> 00:09:20.720
are omega fatty acids, isn't it. Yeah, sure, wonderful for you
110
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:24.799
know, the coat quality, for
inflammation in the body. So, yeah,
111
00:09:24.840 --> 00:09:31.559
we can't discount those Omega threes definitely
an important component of good skin health
112
00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:35.240
and good coats, and it decreases, uh, you know, immune reactions
113
00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:39.080
to things. So you know,
they're wonderful for not only the skin and
114
00:09:39.120 --> 00:09:45.919
coat, but for the joints and
the heart and the brain and the kidneys.
115
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:50.440
So omega threes have a wonderful,
you know, plethora of uses.
116
00:09:50.480 --> 00:09:54.960
I just wanted to throw that in
in addition to their skin benefits. Yeah,
117
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:58.200
it's it's you know, I can't
remember that again. Beck in the
118
00:09:58.240 --> 00:10:03.639
Yearly days when it were introducing all
these scientific diets and you know, prescription
119
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:07.879
diets and all of that sort of
thing, that one of the marketing claims
120
00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:13.360
that they made was you know that
they were complete, obviously complete and balanced.
121
00:10:13.360 --> 00:10:16.600
You know, you didn't have to
do any supplementation that sort of thing,
122
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:20.679
and most of it was dry food. And you know, we just
123
00:10:20.759 --> 00:10:26.600
sell case after case after case of
animals with their quotes trying out the scratching
124
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:28.679
and itching and that sort of thing, and we knew that we had to
125
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:33.240
add some fatty acids, some different
oils into the diet, and you know,
126
00:10:33.240 --> 00:10:37.240
there were a lot of different supplements
that were created back in the you
127
00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:39.799
know, in the seventies, in
the yearly eighties to help with that,
128
00:10:41.320 --> 00:10:45.879
and you could see a difference,
but it would never just quite go away
129
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:50.679
because we were still putting in in
those processed foods. The hundreds of different
130
00:10:50.799 --> 00:10:54.519
chemical compounds that are not listed on
the bag, isn't that true? Yeah,
131
00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:58.679
yeah, I know you've talked about
on many shows. We don't you
132
00:10:58.720 --> 00:11:01.960
know, the ingredient list is just
the partial list. It doesn't include,
133
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:07.559
like you said, all those other
components and ingredients that are hidden. You
134
00:11:07.600 --> 00:11:09.159
know, they're not obligated to list
all of them, so they don't.
135
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.759
Yeah, well, and you know
we go to you know, and actually
136
00:11:13.799 --> 00:11:18.039
the labeling laws changing on pet foods
as we speak. I haven't seen all
137
00:11:18.080 --> 00:11:24.240
the draft components of it yet,
but I mean they're basically trying to make
138
00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:28.559
it look more like a human diet. But there's so many components in there
139
00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:31.360
that when you look at something like
meat meal, chicken meal, things of
140
00:11:31.399 --> 00:11:39.039
this nature, basically those can that's
where they can hide literally hundreds of different
141
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:43.240
compounds. Natural flavors the same way, I mean, what's a natural flavor?
142
00:11:43.440 --> 00:11:48.200
Where do I go out and pick
that right, right, mean exactly?
143
00:11:48.240 --> 00:11:50.279
So how many the term organic?
Right? We don't know what that
144
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:54.960
means either. Well, today it's
impossible with kem trails and spreading for all
145
00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:58.720
these insects, you know, mosquitos
and everything else. And of course now
146
00:12:00.080 --> 00:12:05.559
or as they're they're dealing with the
you know, with the chemtrails, uh,
147
00:12:05.799 --> 00:12:09.639
the snow, it's bringing those chemicals
back down to the ground and dogs
148
00:12:09.639 --> 00:12:13.759
are up playing in it, and
right they're praying, you know. And
149
00:12:13.840 --> 00:12:18.639
then of course they're plowing and salting
and chemically treating the roads and the sidewalks.
150
00:12:20.159 --> 00:12:24.759
You know, another chemical you know
basically, uh, thunderstorm, isn't
151
00:12:24.799 --> 00:12:28.799
it. Oh? Absolutely, it's
a pool of toxins, that's for sure,
152
00:12:30.720 --> 00:12:33.519
and we don't know what havel of
them are. I mean you as
153
00:12:33.360 --> 00:12:37.960
as a holistic veterinarian me as you
know, the nutrition side of it and
154
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:43.000
the urbal side of it. It
makes it difficult for us to start detoxifying
155
00:12:43.039 --> 00:12:48.600
and getting rid of these problems because
we have no clue what they're actually exposed
156
00:12:48.639 --> 00:12:52.159
to doing. No, No,
like you said, the ingredients are I
157
00:12:52.159 --> 00:12:56.399
mean not just ingredients, but the
environmental toxins that are you know, so
158
00:12:56.559 --> 00:13:03.200
many a myriad of of of terrible
chemicals that you know, we don't even
159
00:13:03.240 --> 00:13:07.159
know most of them. So,
like you said, Bill, it's we
160
00:13:07.159 --> 00:13:11.840
don't know what we're up against,
so it becomes harder to detoxify from those
161
00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:16.840
things. Yeah, I mean on
the homeopathic side, I mean you probably
162
00:13:16.120 --> 00:13:20.039
you know, sometimes you have to
go through, you know, many different
163
00:13:20.320 --> 00:13:24.080
remedies to see what really works sometimes, isn't that true? Different energies,
164
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:28.000
That's very true. I mean we'll
often start with a homeopathic remedy like nux
165
00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:35.440
vomica, which deals with a lot
of toxic exposure and overreactivity. And you
166
00:13:35.480 --> 00:13:39.320
know, it's a great remedy to
use in cases that initially present to the
167
00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:46.360
homeopath because it removes that layer of
illness that's from the drugs and the toxins
168
00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:50.600
and the over medications and the environmental
toxins. Just including all of that the
169
00:13:50.720 --> 00:13:54.519
right and the beneficial of it.
But like you said, if there are
170
00:13:54.519 --> 00:14:00.000
different manifestations of toxicity, we have
to use different remedies to certainly address these
171
00:14:00.200 --> 00:14:03.120
that go deeper into the patient.
Right. And of course we're doing the
172
00:14:03.120 --> 00:14:07.360
same thing in number one with foods. You know, you have to rotate
173
00:14:07.360 --> 00:14:09.799
the diet so that we're not you
know, because all food brings good and
174
00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.360
bed to the table. The good
part we're burning off right away. But
175
00:14:13.399 --> 00:14:16.200
we got when we do a change, we're getting rid of we're actually cleansing
176
00:14:16.200 --> 00:14:20.960
ourselves of the bad parts of those
foods, and that's going to take you
177
00:14:20.960 --> 00:14:26.559
know, and food is the manifestation
of both bringing in nutrients, and different
178
00:14:26.600 --> 00:14:31.159
foods bring in different nutrients but also
take out different, very different toxins,
179
00:14:31.200 --> 00:14:37.279
sometimes very very specific. So you
know what they sometimes label as these uh,
180
00:14:37.799 --> 00:14:39.759
you know, food sensitivities and that
sort of thing is nothing more than
181
00:14:39.840 --> 00:14:43.519
really the body doing in the food
doing what it's supposed to do, isn't
182
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:48.080
it. Yeah, trying to remove
you know, through the symptoms, through
183
00:14:48.080 --> 00:14:52.279
the discharges from the body. You
know, that's the life force talking to
184
00:14:52.360 --> 00:14:56.519
us through you know, through the
imbalance. But it's the way, like
185
00:14:56.559 --> 00:15:00.440
you said, the toxins are removed, and we interfere with that or suppress
186
00:15:00.480 --> 00:15:03.320
it, you know, the imbalance
is just going to go deeper in the
187
00:15:03.360 --> 00:15:07.320
patient, whether you're looking at it
from your perspective or from a homeopathic perspective.
188
00:15:07.399 --> 00:15:11.440
So you know, if we're not
addressing the underlying causes, then we
189
00:15:11.600 --> 00:15:16.240
end up in deep water, we
end up with organ problems eventually cancer.
190
00:15:16.919 --> 00:15:20.600
So not a way, not a
productive way for chronic health, that's for
191
00:15:20.639 --> 00:15:24.120
sure. No. And you know, and one of the ones that we
192
00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:26.799
hear is the probably most so is
you know, when the dog starts scratching
193
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:31.519
and itching it especially it seems to
be around chicken, and it's like they're
194
00:15:31.559 --> 00:15:35.600
allergic to chicken. And it's not
that they're allergic to the chicken, but
195
00:15:35.720 --> 00:15:41.960
most chicken is enhanced with different flavors
and you know, palaitents and you know,
196
00:15:43.000 --> 00:15:50.039
basically addictive chemicals so that you know, you'll be loyal to one brand.
197
00:15:50.080 --> 00:15:52.879
So okay, I'd like to produced
chicken. So therefore, you know
198
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:56.879
it's got to be the best,
and you know, you try to switch
199
00:15:56.960 --> 00:16:00.399
back and forth and you have reactions
to it because the bodies got these chemicals
200
00:16:00.440 --> 00:16:03.480
and you know, the chickens got
this these chemicals. And of course now
201
00:16:03.519 --> 00:16:07.320
we get to throw in, you
know, over the last you know what
202
00:16:07.519 --> 00:16:11.639
forty years or so, the GMO
feed, you know, cork corn and
203
00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:18.399
soret and of course Clive Fosse eight
round up synthetic fertilizers. All of that
204
00:16:18.440 --> 00:16:23.519
stuff is uptake into the animal,
and you know, we feed the chicken
205
00:16:23.519 --> 00:16:29.399
to our dog, our cat,
and the body's got to remove that those
206
00:16:29.440 --> 00:16:33.240
components, don't they And again it
comes back out through the skin. Yeah,
207
00:16:33.360 --> 00:16:36.080
for the skin or you know,
obviously the bowel, you know,
208
00:16:36.399 --> 00:16:40.159
the digestive tract of the liver,
and of course the kidneys, so those
209
00:16:40.159 --> 00:16:44.879
are the outlets of the body.
So yeah, okay, we got a
210
00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:49.080
question that's popped up here. Okay, okay, we we have this continuous
211
00:16:49.600 --> 00:16:56.279
this this cat and continuous heat,
and that's a tough one. Yeah,
212
00:16:56.360 --> 00:17:03.599
I mean, that's just it's you
know, the the toxicity basically causes imbalances,
213
00:17:04.640 --> 00:17:08.319
especially in minerals, doesn't it.
Yeah, no, it absolutely does.
214
00:17:08.400 --> 00:17:14.799
So with this kiddy, though,
you know, hormonal changes and their
215
00:17:14.839 --> 00:17:18.960
behaviors inside the house become very challenging. I know, you know, this
216
00:17:19.079 --> 00:17:26.039
particular client has worked with you,
and you know, I be honest,
217
00:17:26.079 --> 00:17:30.799
I don't have a lot of tools
in my medicine cabinet to really decrease sometimes
218
00:17:30.880 --> 00:17:34.039
what a normal behavior is in a
cat. Now, urinating outside the box
219
00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:40.680
can have a myriad of causes,
from toxicity to stress, and anxiety to
220
00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:44.680
you know, they don't maybe not
like the litter or the litter type.
221
00:17:45.440 --> 00:17:48.079
Sometimes they don't like where the litter
box has been placed. So there's definitely
222
00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:53.640
some behavioral modifications that can be done
that you know, might help a little
223
00:17:53.680 --> 00:18:00.160
bit with the problem. So I'd
encourage her to look that avenue. You
224
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:02.759
know, the heat periods are going
to the heat cycles is going to keep
225
00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:07.599
coming though. That's kind of you
know, it's what biology says in the
226
00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:11.000
cat. Yeah, and of course
you know, if if it's abnormal,
227
00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:14.880
of course that again, you know, the hormones and the minerals are all
228
00:18:14.880 --> 00:18:18.079
tied together very very closely, and
when it comes to that, I mean,
229
00:18:18.119 --> 00:18:22.319
while we can do some different testing
like the hair mineral testing and the
230
00:18:22.359 --> 00:18:29.039
toxicity test and that respect, you
know, it's we're still we're still playing
231
00:18:29.079 --> 00:18:33.839
a guessing game because we're still very
limited in the knowing what the compounds are,
232
00:18:33.920 --> 00:18:40.799
what's causing that imbalance, and right, you know, it's it.
233
00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:44.039
You know, we do the best
job that we can, you know,
234
00:18:44.079 --> 00:18:51.000
and gather as much information obviously as
that we can, but there's the testing
235
00:18:51.039 --> 00:18:59.759
out there just isn't you know,
it just isn't there I mean it,
236
00:18:59.519 --> 00:19:07.279
it's just it's just so problematic again
because there isn't a testing. You know,
237
00:19:07.480 --> 00:19:11.319
allopathic medicine doesn't test for any kind
of poisons because basically they're selling this
238
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:15.519
stuff, aren't they. Yeah,
no, they're absolutely signs, but I
239
00:19:15.559 --> 00:19:18.799
know they don't test for it.
You know, what the client can also
240
00:19:18.920 --> 00:19:23.319
try are some back flower essences that
might help deal with the stress and anxiety
241
00:19:23.400 --> 00:19:27.119
that the cat may be dealing with
without you know, by going into repetitive
242
00:19:27.119 --> 00:19:32.240
heats. So, you know,
flower essences like rescue, remedy and others.
243
00:19:33.240 --> 00:19:37.960
Various calming essences might be helpful there
as well, But that's a difficult,
244
00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:42.440
difficult scenario. Yep. Okay,
we're up against the break here,
245
00:19:42.640 --> 00:19:47.039

Let my Pelleo said, help keep your
271
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:17.839
pet peppier and helpier. And we're
back here on the Pet Health Cafe and
272
00:22:17.880 --> 00:22:21.359
show where your pet has a voice. This is Bill the Pet health Guru
273
00:22:21.440 --> 00:22:26.799
along with doctor Michael dim our favorite
holistic veterinarian. And uh, you know,
274
00:22:26.000 --> 00:22:32.119
talking about the challenges with you know, skinning coat problems and scratching and
275
00:22:32.160 --> 00:22:36.799
itching and things like that. Now
we generally we're talking about this topic.
276
00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:42.640
We're doing a lot with just you
know, dogs having these kinds of problems.
277
00:22:42.720 --> 00:22:47.960
But on the other side of that, how does this this these same
278
00:22:48.000 --> 00:22:53.240
problems manifest themselves in cats. Well, it's usually excessive grooming. You're talking
279
00:22:53.240 --> 00:22:56.880
about the toxic exposure. Uh,
well, there's both the toxic exposure,
280
00:22:56.920 --> 00:23:00.519
but also the scratching. You know, we don't see in many cases of
281
00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:07.240
its real scratching and itching, but
the excessive grooming that you mentioned, and
282
00:23:07.480 --> 00:23:11.119
usually a lot of hair loss too
is hair loss. And there are cats
283
00:23:11.119 --> 00:23:15.359
that develop something called miliary dermatitis,
which is a kind of an inflammation of
284
00:23:15.400 --> 00:23:22.480
the skin that ends up with a
little millet seed like eruptions that feel like
285
00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:26.279
millet seeds, just like it's got
its name, miliary dermatitis. And you
286
00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:30.640
know those cats, again, it's
the same issue as with the dogs.
287
00:23:30.720 --> 00:23:37.039
You know, it's an immune reaction
to toxins or you know, again an
288
00:23:37.039 --> 00:23:41.680
overreactivity of the body. But it's
again it's the way the toxins come out
289
00:23:41.680 --> 00:23:45.000
of the body. So we have
to allow that to happen. And you
290
00:23:45.039 --> 00:23:48.279
know, the other thing that we
didn't mention with dogs is that, you
291
00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:53.319
know a lot of hormonal problems can
cause issues with hair loss, you know,
292
00:23:53.400 --> 00:23:59.720
and cats that are hyper thyroid and
dogs that are hype both thyroid often
293
00:23:59.759 --> 00:24:04.400
develop coat problems too, hair loss
and again with cats, successive grooming.
294
00:24:06.160 --> 00:24:10.480
So you know, we have to
be mindful of our kiddies because they suffer
295
00:24:10.519 --> 00:24:12.799
from the same element as our dogs
do. Yeah, it is so manifest
296
00:24:14.000 --> 00:24:18.799
is dramatically, I guess. But
you know, but again those hormonal inbalance
297
00:24:18.799 --> 00:24:25.920
sensort of that you're talking about,
that's particularly an issue that's well related to
298
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:30.000
Spain neuter, especially early Spain neuter, isn't it. Yeah, no,
299
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:34.200
absolutely, when you spain new to
these animals, young ages, we disrupt
300
00:24:34.240 --> 00:24:40.160
the whole indigrine system because the endigrone
system functions as an integrative system where you
301
00:24:40.279 --> 00:24:44.200
remove one hormone and part of that
you know, integrative system, you're going
302
00:24:44.240 --> 00:24:47.880
to affect other organs. So the
sexual hormones go down, you affect the
303
00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:52.519
pituitary, the adrenal, the thyroid. And yeah, definitely Spade or newded
304
00:24:52.559 --> 00:24:57.000
animals not only have early Spade especially
not only have problems with you know,
305
00:24:57.079 --> 00:25:00.400
hormonal issues. But then we see, like we've talked about other you know
306
00:25:00.480 --> 00:25:07.160
scenarios, increase cancer and other disorted
bone and joint problems. But definitely get
307
00:25:07.200 --> 00:25:11.720
the coat issues for the top of
the show, the you know, the
308
00:25:11.720 --> 00:25:15.920
the thyroid problems, the adrenal problems, and that leads to coat changes and
309
00:25:15.160 --> 00:25:19.720
other issues, other more serious systemic
issues. Just then their their hormones aren't
310
00:25:19.720 --> 00:25:25.000
functioning correctly, so that leads to
you know, all sorts of systemic diseases,
311
00:25:25.079 --> 00:25:29.720
not only of the skin, but
of other body systems. Yeah,
312
00:25:29.839 --> 00:25:36.000
it's you know, it's from our
perspective, it's it's fascinating how how the
313
00:25:36.039 --> 00:25:38.400
systems all work together. And basically
you have to be you know, the
314
00:25:38.440 --> 00:25:42.200
body's got to be running on all
you know, all cylinders. It can't
315
00:25:42.200 --> 00:25:48.920
be missing a certain part because it's
going to have to manifest itself the toxicity
316
00:25:48.960 --> 00:25:51.079
problem. And of course on the
other side of it, we have the
317
00:25:51.119 --> 00:25:55.720
malnutrition problem with the commercial foods,
that they are not complete in balance like
318
00:25:55.759 --> 00:26:00.000
they say they are, because the
body is dynamic, it's always changed.
319
00:26:00.200 --> 00:26:06.400
I mean that that you know,
those kiddies that are especially the little kittens,
320
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:08.759
I mean they're you know, bouncing
all over the place and you know
321
00:26:08.799 --> 00:26:12.440
a lot of energy, they're using
a lot less you know, a lot
322
00:26:12.480 --> 00:26:19.160
more energy than some of the other
you know, older animals and things of
323
00:26:19.160 --> 00:26:22.519
that nature. And I just all
the time that they came up. But
324
00:26:22.640 --> 00:26:26.200
there's even a difference, you know, depending on where you live. Obviously
325
00:26:26.640 --> 00:26:30.279
in summer coats and winter coats,
is there Yeah, no, sure,
326
00:26:30.279 --> 00:26:34.440
different shedding seasons, and you know, code quality changes respond to the you
327
00:26:34.480 --> 00:26:40.160
know, the environmental different seasons about
the daylight and the temperatures, you know,
328
00:26:40.200 --> 00:26:45.880
effect definitely the coats. So we
see various cycles with like I said,
329
00:26:45.920 --> 00:26:49.440
shedding and that kind of thing,
right, And in fact I had
330
00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:52.839
that on my notes here that you
know, especially up north. I mean,
331
00:26:52.839 --> 00:26:57.559
we used to see a lot more
code problems in the winter months because
332
00:26:57.880 --> 00:27:03.799
you know that the uh, the
heat source in the house was quite often
333
00:27:03.079 --> 00:27:07.359
a drying agent in itself, low
humidity, and and that created even you
334
00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:10.839
know, even before we started feeding
a lot of the commercial foods and that's
335
00:27:10.839 --> 00:27:14.920
where they are toxic. But that
was always an issue in the winter months
336
00:27:15.559 --> 00:27:18.799
with you know, the flicky Deandro
feed like coat and that sort of thing
337
00:27:18.920 --> 00:27:25.279
you know, in the wintertime,
right, yeah, absolutely, and of
338
00:27:25.319 --> 00:27:26.440
course the shedding and that sort of
thing that you mentioned. You know,
339
00:27:27.480 --> 00:27:30.279
you know, one of the things
about that the skinning coat too, that
340
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:36.319
we should be ever mindful of is
of course we're down here in South Florida
341
00:27:36.359 --> 00:27:38.480
where you know, we get a
lot of really really warm weather, especially
342
00:27:38.519 --> 00:27:41.720
in the in the summer months,
and that sort of thing and that that
343
00:27:41.720 --> 00:27:48.799
that skinning coat has got to be
in good condition in order to protect the
344
00:27:48.880 --> 00:27:53.880
animal from the heat in the sun
and the elements themselves. And that there's
345
00:27:53.920 --> 00:27:56.960
an issue when people start clipping them
down and shaving them, isn't it.
346
00:27:57.240 --> 00:28:02.119
Yeah, No, Yeah, the
oat is serve as a function, like
347
00:28:02.200 --> 00:28:07.160
you said, and h increased uh
you know, sunburn exposure and uh.
348
00:28:07.519 --> 00:28:12.640
And you know, in the winter
time obviously risk of frostbite and other skin
349
00:28:12.759 --> 00:28:17.240
conditions. Uh, you know,
from too cold to temperatures. So yeah,
350
00:28:17.720 --> 00:28:19.279
you know, keeping those fur you
know, not shaving them down to
351
00:28:19.319 --> 00:28:23.039
the bottom, and you know,
maintaining their coats I think is an important
352
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:27.519
point that we shouldn't forget. Yeah. And of course, you know on
353
00:28:27.559 --> 00:28:33.039
those that are that are you know, heavily groomed sometimes too, the constant
354
00:28:33.119 --> 00:28:38.559
shampooing, the constant you know,
clipping and things like that, that can
355
00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:45.039
create a lot of just you know, a physical irritation, can't it.
356
00:28:45.480 --> 00:28:48.400
Yeah, no, absolutely, over
and over again. You know, they
357
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:52.279
get there. A lot of dogs
have their ears plucked, the hair plucked
358
00:28:52.319 --> 00:28:55.880
out of their ears, which I
never recommend, you know, and that
359
00:28:55.960 --> 00:29:03.480
creates irritation, trauma, inflammation,
and secondary infection. So you know,
360
00:29:03.640 --> 00:29:06.960
I do you want to try and
maintain the coats and the ear health as
361
00:29:07.039 --> 00:29:11.000
natural as it could be and avoid
you know, some of the interventions that
362
00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:15.920
are used. Yeah, I just
saw a comment pop up. I don't
363
00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:22.799
know if we can get it back
up there about oils and yeah, the
364
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:26.440
coat does contain the natural oils they
need. It's actually producing them, isn't
365
00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:29.559
it. Yeah? No, absolutely, Uh. You know, there are
366
00:29:29.799 --> 00:29:33.519
there are oil glands that are you
know, the cook from the coat.
367
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:37.720
You know, there are sebaceous glands
and other you know, oil producing glands
368
00:29:37.720 --> 00:29:41.839
and the coat and the skin that
are involved with the coat health and that
369
00:29:41.920 --> 00:29:45.839
kind of thing. So yeah,
the answer is yes to that. Yeah,
370
00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:48.480
and that's why I mentioned, you
know, especially those that are heavily
371
00:29:48.519 --> 00:29:52.400
groomed in a sort of thing if
they're using a harsher shampoo and unfortunately a
372
00:29:52.400 --> 00:29:59.200
lot of you know a lot of
groomers go the you know, shall I
373
00:29:59.240 --> 00:30:03.839
say that the expensive root with buying
shampoos and using things like dishwashing liquids and
374
00:30:03.880 --> 00:30:08.519
things like that that are actually designed
to strip off oil off our dishes in
375
00:30:08.559 --> 00:30:15.480
our pots and pans. And what
does that cause? It? Yeah?
376
00:30:15.680 --> 00:30:18.960
No, I agree, Bill,
You know we're taking away their protection.
377
00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:29.079
And uh you know, like I
said, these these coat problems, you
378
00:30:29.119 --> 00:30:33.680
know, will often reflect something much
deeper in the patient than you know.
379
00:30:33.759 --> 00:30:38.920
Then my allopathic colleagues are are you
know, assessing And uh, yeah,
380
00:30:38.960 --> 00:30:42.480
it's it's all important, you know, the coat and the skin or the
381
00:30:42.559 --> 00:30:48.720
gateway also to the you know,
it's a it's a huge surface area the
382
00:30:48.759 --> 00:30:53.720
body that removes toxins and and keeps
things flowing. And when we interfere with
383
00:30:53.759 --> 00:31:00.920
that, it's just the health consequences
are are significant, yeah, of course.
384
00:31:00.960 --> 00:31:04.720
And and actually both the dogs and
the cats because since we've domesticated them
385
00:31:06.240 --> 00:31:11.839
and we were looking for special traits
and different looks and things like that.
386
00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:17.240
Uh you know, the coat of
the gray wolf is a lot different than
387
00:31:17.279 --> 00:31:22.000
that of a poodle or a labor
or you know, a chihuahua or you
388
00:31:22.039 --> 00:31:26.480
know some of these these hairless breeds. I mean, they have their own
389
00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:30.200
set of issues, don't they.
Yeah, no, they sure do.
390
00:31:30.640 --> 00:31:34.000
You know what we breed into these
animals and we create problems. So uh,
391
00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:37.240
you know, the way their coats
are, you know, the way
392
00:31:37.240 --> 00:31:42.079
we're breeding for their their physical appearance, uh, you know, has its
393
00:31:42.559 --> 00:31:47.960
has its downside. Yeah, and
of course, you know, in caring
394
00:31:47.960 --> 00:31:52.839
for them, you really have to
be you know, the higher levels of
395
00:31:52.920 --> 00:32:01.440
nutrition and even supplementation with different oils
and different you know, fatty acid foods
396
00:32:02.559 --> 00:32:06.960
is even much more important, isn't
it. Yeah, yeah, I think
397
00:32:07.000 --> 00:32:09.839
we froze Bill. There, I'm
you're you seem to be frozen. I'm
398
00:32:09.880 --> 00:32:16.200
enough there you go. Yeah,
but you know, we just have to
399
00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:22.319
be more diligent with washing these secondary
items. And you know some of the
400
00:32:22.319 --> 00:32:27.599
other things that come into display with
the skinning coat are a lot of the
401
00:32:27.680 --> 00:32:32.680
parasite type preventatives, aren't they,
especially the flea and tick Absolutely. Yeah,
402
00:32:32.759 --> 00:32:37.079
that's a toxic stress on the on
the coats, and you know a
403
00:32:37.160 --> 00:32:39.960
lot of these topicals you know that
go in between the shoulder blades. You
404
00:32:40.000 --> 00:32:45.559
know, a common reaction is the
skin becomes ulcerated or irritated. And you
405
00:32:45.599 --> 00:32:49.039
know, not to mention the systemic
reactions that you can see with the digestive
406
00:32:49.079 --> 00:32:52.880
tract or the nervous system, but
uh, yeah, the application of these
407
00:32:52.039 --> 00:32:57.519
topical products is a you know,
it gets distributed throughout the entire coat,
408
00:32:57.599 --> 00:33:00.880
you know, through the hair follicles, and so that's definitely a toxic stressor
409
00:33:01.000 --> 00:33:05.599
that you know again can affect code
quality and lead to hair loss and other
410
00:33:05.640 --> 00:33:08.519
issues. Yeah, and it's not
only these topical I mean in topicals,
411
00:33:08.559 --> 00:33:13.200
I mean you're gonna you can be
looking at again the types of shampoos and
412
00:33:13.240 --> 00:33:16.480
the you know, the flea shampoos
and the tick shampoos and the main shampoos,
413
00:33:16.519 --> 00:33:24.519
and you know, and it's it's
just as a constant barrage on those
414
00:33:25.359 --> 00:33:30.799
you know, on the living hair
follicles, on the hair itself. I
415
00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:34.160
mean it you know, would need
when the coke gets too dry, when
416
00:33:34.160 --> 00:33:38.680
the coke gets you know, basically
irritated too badly, you start you don't
417
00:33:38.680 --> 00:33:43.200
have the structure and the hair itself, and you end up with excessive shedding.
418
00:33:43.880 --> 00:33:46.440
Uh because the hair, the hair
itself is just breaking off, am
419
00:33:46.480 --> 00:33:52.720
I right? Right? So the
other thing about uh, you know,
420
00:33:52.759 --> 00:33:57.000
people when they have their animals shaved, sometimes the hair doesn't grow back.
421
00:33:57.559 --> 00:34:00.480
You know, I've seen a lot
of I've seen occasional cases, and that's
422
00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:05.480
usually an imbalance in the patient that
should be treated with either functional medicine or
423
00:34:05.519 --> 00:34:08.199
homeopathy. But even if something you
know, when you mentioned earlier about you
424
00:34:08.239 --> 00:34:13.239
know, clipping their fur. I
wanted to mention that, as I said,
425
00:34:13.280 --> 00:34:15.360
sometimes the fur is very slow to
go back or grows back differently,
426
00:34:16.320 --> 00:34:21.000
So we have to be mindful of
these stresses on our animals coats for sure.
427
00:34:21.880 --> 00:34:23.320
Yeah, I mean every single one
of the you know, everything that
428
00:34:23.360 --> 00:34:30.559
we do is either a positive or
negative. And you know when we start
429
00:34:30.639 --> 00:34:32.280
looking at it, if you started
on the backside. And in fact,
430
00:34:32.280 --> 00:34:38.199
it's funny when I switched people over
to a raw diet, primarily you know,
431
00:34:38.360 --> 00:34:40.360
one of the first things that I
hear usually at the end of the
432
00:34:40.440 --> 00:34:45.519
first very first week, it's you
know, the coat has totally changed,
433
00:34:45.599 --> 00:34:49.159
and how did that happen? And
we can get back into a little bit
434
00:34:49.159 --> 00:35:02.000
more on that as soon as we
get back from this quick break. We
435

has a voice. This is Build a
451
00:36:42.400 --> 00:36:45.639
Pet Health Gurul with doctor Michael dem
Uh. You know, touching a lot
452
00:36:45.679 --> 00:36:52.679
on skinny coat, and it's primarily
because that's that's one of the best things,
453
00:36:52.360 --> 00:36:57.760
uh. That are the best ways
we can tell that there is a
454
00:36:57.760 --> 00:37:02.760
an imbalance somewhere's along the line is
is one of the most visible symptoms right
455
00:37:04.079 --> 00:37:08.360
right, absolutely, and it's a
reflection of what's going on inside the body.
456
00:37:08.400 --> 00:37:13.079
I mean, like a person with
a you know, with an unhealthy
457
00:37:13.119 --> 00:37:19.239
complexion, you know, usually indicates
you know, imbalances, disease, toxicity
458
00:37:19.280 --> 00:37:22.840
in the body, and the same
is true with our animals. So and
459
00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:27.719
then you know, sometimes when animals
developed this hair loss pattern, and when
460
00:37:27.800 --> 00:37:32.480
vets can't find a reason allopathically i
e. Allergy or hormonal, they'll put
461
00:37:32.480 --> 00:37:37.559
the animals on melatonin, which is
a strong hormone in itself that can have
462
00:37:37.880 --> 00:37:43.159
a lot of effects on other hormonal
systems. So, you know, there
463
00:37:43.440 --> 00:37:47.000
certainly is something we want to be
aware of and and realize how it's the
464
00:37:47.039 --> 00:37:51.559
gateway to the you know, as
a reflection of what's going on inside.
465
00:37:52.440 --> 00:37:54.400
Yeah, now, the question came
up with you know what kind of what
466
00:37:54.400 --> 00:38:00.360
what oils are the best and obviously
the best oils to use are the fatty
467
00:38:00.360 --> 00:38:05.639
acids and the essential oils that are
in the food itself. Things like salmon
468
00:38:05.719 --> 00:38:12.159
and sardines, tuna, you know, good grass fed you know, lamb
469
00:38:12.239 --> 00:38:19.760
and beef are all excellent sources for
Omega's reason nines, aren't they. Yeah,
470
00:38:19.800 --> 00:38:22.800
it's like let food be thy medicine, as I say, you know,
471
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:27.000
so that's where the medicine is.
Yeah, you know, we're always
472
00:38:27.000 --> 00:38:30.920
reaching for something outside of it,
and a lot of times it's just the
473
00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:35.559
species appropriate diet. Yeah. Now, and on the commercial oils though,
474
00:38:35.599 --> 00:38:37.559
I mean, you know, there's
tons of companies out there that you know,
475
00:38:39.079 --> 00:38:43.199
are making claims, you know about
the high omegas and things like that,
476
00:38:43.239 --> 00:38:49.440
But is it in a form that's
bioavailable. Things like salmon oil and
477
00:38:49.519 --> 00:38:52.920
sardine oil, which we used to
use years and years ago. There's problems
478
00:38:52.960 --> 00:38:58.599
with a the quality today. Just
like everything else. There's so many fake
479
00:38:58.679 --> 00:39:01.480
foods out there, and you know, they take a good a good product
480
00:39:01.519 --> 00:39:07.119
like olive oil and they add in
you know, safflower oil or soy oil
481
00:39:07.239 --> 00:39:10.679
or corn oil in it, and
it's you know, it creates secondary issues
482
00:39:12.159 --> 00:39:15.280
there. And of course natural oils
are going to go rantsid, aren't they.
483
00:39:15.639 --> 00:39:19.920
Yeah, no, they sure do. They only have a short shelf
484
00:39:19.960 --> 00:39:22.519
life. Yeah, And you know
when you're buying it in the store,
485
00:39:22.559 --> 00:39:28.400
you have no idea when it was
processed or how it was processed. And
486
00:39:28.519 --> 00:39:30.639
yeah, I agree, you know, whereas you know, if you got
487
00:39:30.639 --> 00:39:37.760
a good piece of wild caught salmon, you're you know, you're in pretty
488
00:39:37.760 --> 00:39:38.920
good shape with that, you know, in the same time with the grass.
489
00:39:38.960 --> 00:39:42.119
But you know, like with beef
and lamb, you know, we
490
00:39:43.400 --> 00:39:45.199
you know, we take pride in
and the fact that what we try to
491
00:39:45.199 --> 00:39:51.400
source out is all completely grass finished, you know, no grains, nothing
492
00:39:51.480 --> 00:39:55.239
like that, and that's going to
be especially high in those fatty acids and
493
00:39:55.239 --> 00:39:59.519
then the right kind of fatty acids. I know, a lot of companies
494
00:39:59.559 --> 00:40:02.119
throw out there that you know,
well we get you know, especially when
495
00:40:02.119 --> 00:40:07.760
you get into the vegetarian, vegan
type approach that while we're using flex seed
496
00:40:07.440 --> 00:40:14.440
as are omega, well, the
the form that it's in isn't really utilized
497
00:40:14.519 --> 00:40:17.440
in the healing process the ala it
has to be converted by the body.
498
00:40:17.480 --> 00:40:22.519
And does that not you know,
actually put more stress on the body to
499
00:40:22.559 --> 00:40:28.199
try to convert it. Sure does, absolutely. And you know the other
500
00:40:28.760 --> 00:40:31.320
aspect of you know, we're talking
about skin and code issues is you know,
501
00:40:31.400 --> 00:40:35.079
we can also see that reflected in
the health of the nails of some
502
00:40:35.119 --> 00:40:38.559
of these animals too. Sure,
you know, the nails end up becoming
503
00:40:38.559 --> 00:40:44.000
more brittle, they crack or they
split, and you know a lot of
504
00:40:44.000 --> 00:40:51.039
those animals are it's dietary related or
it's again toxicity related. They're diagnosed with
505
00:40:51.400 --> 00:40:55.840
fungal infections of the nail bed or
autoimmune diseases of the nails. And again
506
00:40:55.920 --> 00:41:00.239
it's just like the skin and the
code, it's a reflection of what's going
507
00:41:00.280 --> 00:41:04.440
on inside the body. And so
I wanted to just bring that up about
508
00:41:04.519 --> 00:41:07.920
the about the males and even the
pads. You know, a lot of
509
00:41:07.960 --> 00:41:12.719
animals on commercial foods, the conventional
diets, the pads are dry and cracked
510
00:41:12.800 --> 00:41:15.320
and you know, a lighter color
and they go on a raw diet and
511
00:41:15.400 --> 00:41:19.960
it's amazing you see the pads start
to become a nice black color again.
512
00:41:20.039 --> 00:41:22.320
And yeah, you know, so
uh, you know, we see this
513
00:41:22.440 --> 00:41:27.920
reflected and you know, the whole
animal, the whole exterior of the animal.
514
00:41:28.599 --> 00:41:31.199
Yeah. Yeah, if one of
the main components of course, you
515
00:41:31.239 --> 00:41:36.039
know, with bringing up the nails
and things like that, uh you know
516
00:41:36.199 --> 00:41:39.920
for generations, I mean women with
that wanted good nails and good hair.
517
00:41:40.559 --> 00:41:45.760
Uh, took a lot of Biotin
is one of the main nutrients and that,
518
00:41:46.480 --> 00:41:51.840
I mean, the primary source for
that that I found is good pasture
519
00:41:51.960 --> 00:41:57.960
raised eggs. The egg yolks are
just loaded with biotin and that could you
520
00:41:58.000 --> 00:42:01.480
know, they can make a different
in just a few days, you know.
521
00:42:01.679 --> 00:42:05.440
And of course as we're looking at
it, you have to go through
522
00:42:05.440 --> 00:42:08.199
a cycle where like even with tear
staining and things like that, different staining
523
00:42:08.239 --> 00:42:12.559
on the body, you have to
let that hair grow back out. It's
524
00:42:12.599 --> 00:42:15.199
not just going to change colors from
the bad color. It has to grow
525
00:42:15.199 --> 00:42:19.519
out. Same thing is true with
the nails, right right exactly. It
526
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:22.679
has to grow out, you know, and has to cycle through. Yeah,
527
00:42:22.800 --> 00:42:28.880
you know, so that allopathic one
pill fits all. I don't think
528
00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:30.960
that works on that stuff, does
it not? Really? No? You
529
00:42:31.039 --> 00:42:36.440
know, of course, if the
animal is traumatizing the code or the skin,
530
00:42:37.039 --> 00:42:39.639
you know, they have drugs to
block that andy from doing that.
531
00:42:42.159 --> 00:42:45.000
But it certainly, as I said, leads to other health issues down the
532
00:42:45.079 --> 00:42:50.159
road when we're blocking a normal response
in the patient. So you know,
533
00:42:50.320 --> 00:42:53.639
clients, I know want their animals
to be comfortable and symptom free, but
534
00:42:54.360 --> 00:42:58.880
that often comes with the price,
right Yeah. Well when you look at
535
00:42:58.920 --> 00:43:00.320
it too, I mean, you
know, and we as humans, of
536
00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:04.280
course, we can see this stuff. But if you ever cut yourself or
537
00:43:04.280 --> 00:43:08.679
scratch yourself and and that sort of
thing, it doesn't heal overnight. It
538
00:43:08.760 --> 00:43:13.199
takes you know, I mean we're
replacing a dermal layer like once a month,
539
00:43:13.800 --> 00:43:17.639
so we can actually take all kinds
uh you know, you know several
540
00:43:17.719 --> 00:43:22.000
months before those issues are going to
clear up, doesn't it. Yeah,
541
00:43:22.199 --> 00:43:25.880
no, absolutely, it takes time. Yeah, it's yeah, you know,
542
00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:30.840
so it's scratching and itching is going
to it. It's a process of
543
00:43:31.079 --> 00:43:37.079
you know, we've got a process
of eliminating the toxins and all the waste
544
00:43:37.119 --> 00:43:38.719
products and that sort of thing,
and then it's a rebuilding process, which
545
00:43:38.760 --> 00:43:43.960
like again it does take time.
And yeah, no, I mean sometimes
546
00:43:44.000 --> 00:43:47.000
these animals have had these problems for
years, so it's not like gonna go
547
00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:52.119
away overnight. So you have to
kind of counsel clients to be mindful of
548
00:43:52.119 --> 00:43:57.760
of a patient process, you know. So it's uh, took a lot
549
00:43:57.760 --> 00:44:00.199
of body a long time to get
to that point, and sometimes it takes
550
00:44:00.239 --> 00:44:06.199
a little time for it to improve. So yeah, and it all comes
551
00:44:06.199 --> 00:44:08.320
down to the same thing. It's
all from the inside out. And if
552
00:44:08.360 --> 00:44:13.039
you don't you know nothing that you're
going to do topically is really going to
553
00:44:13.880 --> 00:44:20.440
heal. You have to rebuild.
You have to rebuild good cells, eliminate
554
00:44:20.480 --> 00:44:22.960
the bad cells that are causing it, that are carrying the toxins. I
555
00:44:23.000 --> 00:44:27.679
mean, I know I've run across
dozens of cases with especially little white dogs
556
00:44:27.920 --> 00:44:30.840
that when we do uh, you
know, a switch to a raw diet
557
00:44:31.320 --> 00:44:35.519
that day three, day four,
day five, someplace in that area,
558
00:44:35.920 --> 00:44:37.960
that I get the phone call.
I think we have to go back to
559
00:44:37.000 --> 00:44:42.639
the vet because the whole belly is
like all these little red pimples, right,
560
00:44:42.719 --> 00:44:45.800
And it's like, now, don't
worry, that's just part of the
561
00:44:45.840 --> 00:44:49.920
detoxic you know, process, and
give me a call of it. If
562
00:44:49.960 --> 00:44:52.400
it changes. In the next week. I get to call, Oh my
563
00:44:52.480 --> 00:44:55.760
god, the whole belly is black. Okay, I think to dermatologist.
564
00:44:55.760 --> 00:44:59.519
It's like, no, just give
it, you know, just wait it
565
00:44:59.559 --> 00:45:01.639
out a little. The body is
working exactly what it's supposed two, right,
566
00:45:01.960 --> 00:45:05.840
and you know, another week to
ten days later, I get to
567
00:45:05.880 --> 00:45:09.400
call it the body the belly is
back to normal. What happened, right,
568
00:45:09.440 --> 00:45:13.480
well, you know, as as
the body is pushing it out in
569
00:45:13.519 --> 00:45:15.280
the gut area, all those toxins
coming out of the gut and going out
570
00:45:15.320 --> 00:45:20.599
through the skin. Okay, you
can always red blood cells that are sacrificing
571
00:45:20.639 --> 00:45:27.400
themselves to heal the body. And
of course now I've got this inflammation on
572
00:45:27.440 --> 00:45:29.880
the belly. That's the red blood
cells. And then they all die,
573
00:45:30.119 --> 00:45:37.119
and right that blood is what color? Yeah, we see that sort of
574
00:45:37.199 --> 00:45:43.840
dermatitis and young dogs that are vaccinated
for distemper it comes out easily rash,
575
00:45:44.000 --> 00:45:46.119
you know, as the body removes
the toxins of the vaccine. So that's
576
00:45:46.159 --> 00:45:52.679
a we see that also with a
vaccine detoxification as well. Yeah. Yeah,
577
00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:54.400
And of course then the body turned
you know, like I said,
578
00:45:54.440 --> 00:45:58.280
belly turned black. And then two
weeks later, three weeks later, it's
579
00:45:58.519 --> 00:46:00.840
you know, it's clear again.
And of course the question is is well,
580
00:46:01.000 --> 00:46:04.639
okay, so those were dead,
dead blood cells. It's like,
581
00:46:05.039 --> 00:46:07.679
yeah, there's dead blood, so
where is it? Can you carpet?
582
00:46:08.679 --> 00:46:14.199
Right? You know, they all
get freaked out at that point in time.
583
00:46:14.480 --> 00:46:15.400
Listen, we're down to the last
couple of minutes of the show.
584
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:21.239
How can people get a hold of
you? And and I go to my
585
00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:27.280
website at doctordim dot com and that
has my contact information, my email address,
586
00:46:27.360 --> 00:46:31.599
I work with clients in the South
Florida area as well as in person
587
00:46:31.679 --> 00:46:38.079
as well as phone consultations nationwide.
I also have you know, a nice
588
00:46:38.599 --> 00:46:43.920
social media page that has some videos
that we've done, so they're welcome to
589
00:46:43.960 --> 00:46:49.320
go there for some additional educational information. Yeah, and of course, you
