8
00:00:41.799 --> 00:00:44.840
And welcome to Petthouse Cafe to show where your pet
9

has a Voice. This is Bill, pet Health Guru for
10
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:52.719
another exciting show on the Pet Health Cafe. And again
11
00:00:52.759 --> 00:00:54.600
tonight we want to have an excellent show for you.
12
00:00:54.640 --> 00:01:00.640
We're going to get into some interesting off the mainstream
13
00:01:01.039 --> 00:01:06.480
nutrition paths, into some alternatives, which is an area that
14
00:01:06.519 --> 00:01:10.280
we study and believe in a lot. As always, we
15

00:01:20.439 --> 00:01:25.040
other ones. And as always, our chat room is open,

that will help us out in guiding our path through
21
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:36.599
this show. And tonight I want to talk to you
22
00:01:37.400 --> 00:01:41.480
a lot about what Mother Nature has provided for us,
23
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:46.439
for both ourselves and for healthy paths. And they're grown
24
00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:51.719
in nature, classified as herbs and botanicals is what they're
25
00:01:51.760 --> 00:01:55.640
normally listened as, and we take a lot different approach
26
00:01:55.799 --> 00:02:02.000
to this category of products. I do not look at
27
00:02:02.079 --> 00:02:05.519
them as being a supplement. These are actually foods. Our
28
00:02:05.560 --> 00:02:09.800
great grandmothers, our great great grandmothers and generations before that
29
00:02:10.400 --> 00:02:15.919
used different herbs and botanicals and their cooking and which
30
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:21.400
was actually the heart of and disease control and also
31
00:02:21.560 --> 00:02:26.000
of building a healthy immune system. So much of it
32
00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:29.479
was innate, meaning that it was it came to them naturally.
33
00:02:29.599 --> 00:02:33.800
We didn't have to look on the internet to find
34
00:02:34.360 --> 00:02:38.759
which herbs and which botanicals we needed to get. We
35
00:02:38.759 --> 00:02:41.479
were picking them in nature. We were drying them in
36
00:02:41.520 --> 00:02:43.400
the fall so that we would have them for the
37
00:02:43.479 --> 00:02:48.520
wintertime when you know typically people and possibly even our
38
00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:53.800
pets would get sick. But today you know they're classified
39
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:56.919
as a supplement, and once you used to do that.
40
00:02:57.000 --> 00:03:03.120
This is a government designation basically, And the difference between
41
00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:05.479
food and of course supplements is the number one is
42
00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:09.840
a registration, which we do not like, whichcause that always
43
00:03:09.879 --> 00:03:13.879
been whenever you're registering anything. Obviously, there's money involved, fees involved,
44
00:03:14.240 --> 00:03:19.680
regulatory expenses, and guidelines. What they've tried to do is
45
00:03:19.719 --> 00:03:22.759
what they do with medicines, trying to turn everything into
46
00:03:22.840 --> 00:03:27.199
standard dosages, of which with if you know anything about food,
47
00:03:27.919 --> 00:03:33.000
there is no such thing as a standard dosage of
48
00:03:33.400 --> 00:03:36.439
essentially any food on this planet. You know, they give
49
00:03:36.439 --> 00:03:39.120
you guidelines. You know, if you're eating red meat, you
50
00:03:39.199 --> 00:03:41.800
might want an eight ounce steak or a sixteen ounce steak,
51
00:03:42.719 --> 00:03:46.120
whatever your body is craving at that point in time.
52
00:03:46.719 --> 00:03:52.439
Same thing with vegetables and fruits. You know, it's interesting
53
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.840
because the dosage, let's just take what one of the
54
00:03:55.840 --> 00:03:59.479
old things were, you know, fifty years ago, one hundred
55
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:01.159
years ago. You know, an apple a day keeps the
56
00:04:01.199 --> 00:04:04.800
doctor away. Well, so I guess the dosage on that
57
00:04:05.039 --> 00:04:09.039
then is one apple. But what size apple? I know,
58
00:04:09.120 --> 00:04:14.000
throughout my lifetime, I've seen you know, tiny apples. I've
59
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:21.519
seen green, red and green sure red, different shapes, different sizes,
60
00:04:21.879 --> 00:04:24.319
Some of them are double the size of others. So
61
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:28.800
that doesn't seem like a very precise way of dosing
62
00:04:29.399 --> 00:04:34.319
enough food. So if we can't decide on a dosage
63
00:04:34.319 --> 00:04:37.959
for an apple or a pair or a steak. Why
64
00:04:38.000 --> 00:04:41.360
are we trying to squeeze herbs and botanicals into that
65
00:04:41.560 --> 00:04:45.000
same box. You know you're only allowed to have, you know,
66
00:04:45.240 --> 00:04:51.160
two capsules of turmeric a day. Well, it's interesting, and
67
00:04:51.240 --> 00:04:54.360
I use TURMERICI for a very good reason, because this
68
00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.439
is one of the most controversial ones around when it
69
00:04:57.480 --> 00:05:01.920
comes to regulation and regulatory stances and this sort of thing. Now,
70
00:05:01.959 --> 00:05:05.560
if I walk into the supermarket, I can buy tumoric
71
00:05:05.639 --> 00:05:08.439
rout by the pound, by the ounce, harve source selling
72
00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:11.519
it by the pack. There's no nutritional information on it,
73
00:05:11.560 --> 00:05:15.800
there's no warning labels on it. There's no usage label
74
00:05:15.959 --> 00:05:19.720
actually on it at all. And that's fine because it
75
00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:22.839
is classified as a food. Now when we dry it
76
00:05:22.879 --> 00:05:27.839
and grind it up and put it into a shaker bottle,
77
00:05:27.879 --> 00:05:32.120
it is now considered a spice. Hmmm. I don't know
78
00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:34.920
what all changed except for the delivery system basically, but
79
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:35.759
it did.
80
00:05:36.720 --> 00:05:36.839
So.
81
00:05:37.399 --> 00:05:41.839
With that being said, okay, that falls just in a
82
00:05:41.879 --> 00:05:45.959
different category, but the usage is still that of a food.
83
00:05:46.600 --> 00:05:49.160
And you know, we just sprinkle on what we want
84
00:05:49.759 --> 00:05:54.959
and the general dosage is to use it by taste.
85
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:58.680
How much do you want to taste it? Now? If
86
00:05:58.720 --> 00:06:02.920
I turn around and put that into a capsule, some
87
00:06:03.079 --> 00:06:06.680
government agency is liable to say, well, that is now
88
00:06:06.680 --> 00:06:09.600
a supplement and you have to raise you have to
89
00:06:09.720 --> 00:06:12.360
register it, and it has to be a precise amount
90
00:06:12.519 --> 00:06:15.240
inside that capsule. And of course there's a number of
91
00:06:15.240 --> 00:06:18.040
different sized capsules, so you know, we have to take
92
00:06:18.079 --> 00:06:21.680
that into consideration in the first place, and now we
93
00:06:21.879 --> 00:06:26.560
have to disclose certain nutritional value to it, which is
94
00:06:26.680 --> 00:06:32.519
really really interesting because that changes the whole meaning of it.
95
00:06:32.959 --> 00:06:35.959
And then if I take it to the next step,
96
00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:39.279
and I take that same capsule of tumeric which we
97
00:06:39.360 --> 00:06:42.040
bought as a root right it, ground it up, put
98
00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:45.160
it in the capsule, and I say on the bottle,
99
00:06:45.800 --> 00:06:51.680
this lowers inflammation. That has now become a drug. Still
100
00:06:51.720 --> 00:06:54.839
the same original product, nothing has changed in the chemically,
101
00:06:55.240 --> 00:06:59.360
but because I made a claim, the FDA deems it
102
00:06:59.439 --> 00:07:02.279
that it is now a drug and has to be
103
00:07:02.600 --> 00:07:08.800
registered as a drug again with very precise dosaging, with
104
00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:13.839
very precise labeling, and you know all the paperwork and
105
00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:16.800
expenses that go along with that. So here's a product
106
00:07:16.800 --> 00:07:20.639
that Mother Nature gave us, available in nature that can
107
00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:24.519
be classified as any number of different things to be
108
00:07:24.639 --> 00:07:28.600
used in the body. This can hold true with almost
109
00:07:28.600 --> 00:07:31.600
every urban botanical out there. You find them in your yard,
110
00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:34.199
you find them in the forest. All around the world,
111
00:07:34.399 --> 00:07:40.360
there are plants that essentially do the same thing, clean
112
00:07:40.439 --> 00:07:45.480
the same body parts, organs systems, bring in the same
113
00:07:45.519 --> 00:07:48.680
type of nutrition. Some of them might be the bark,
114
00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:51.160
some might be the roots, some might be the leaves,
115
00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:55.160
some might be the flowers, but they're all very very
116
00:07:55.199 --> 00:07:59.560
consistent in that they help the body as long as
117
00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:03.079
you follow lean the right passway. I see a question
118
00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:07.160
up here, what makes it seem like the Department of
119
00:08:07.319 --> 00:08:11.639
Government is only going by looks of things. Why do
120
00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:14.199
you think that is Okay? Basically, it's a way for
121
00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:16.399
them to make money and to regulate. They don't want
122
00:08:16.399 --> 00:08:19.680
you to get healthy. So that is all that is
123
00:08:19.879 --> 00:08:23.839
very very obvious when you walk through a supermarket and
124
00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:27.720
you're walking down the middle aisles and essentially there is
125
00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:32.840
no real food. Everything is ultra process and the classification
126
00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:35.679
for ultra process if it has more than six or
127
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:39.840
seven ingredients in it, it's not a natural food. So
128
00:08:40.720 --> 00:08:44.159
we have to counterbalance that. And of course the other
129
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:48.720
thing is on things like herbs and botanicals, and even
130
00:08:48.879 --> 00:08:52.480
I see this like in oils and honey and other
131
00:08:52.639 --> 00:08:56.240
natural fairly natural products, is that there's a lot of
132
00:08:56.279 --> 00:09:01.840
opportunity for companies to be unscrupulous, to be dishonest, to
133
00:09:02.879 --> 00:09:07.879
basically do anything for a profit. You know, honey is
134
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:13.000
often mixed with other sugars and cut down in expensive sugars,
135
00:09:13.279 --> 00:09:18.360
processed sugars and sold as genuine raw honey. But it's
136
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:21.360
not so you're not going to get the same benefits
137
00:09:21.399 --> 00:09:25.440
from that as you will from the natural product. Same
138
00:09:25.480 --> 00:09:27.559
thing with oils. I mean, this goes back hundreds of
139
00:09:27.639 --> 00:09:33.480
years where old pressed pure olive oil would be taken.
140
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:36.039
In fact, there's rumors that in some certain parts of
141
00:09:36.039 --> 00:09:40.120
the country or the world today that the oil that
142
00:09:40.200 --> 00:09:43.840
the olive oil trade is actually run by criminal organizations
143
00:09:44.159 --> 00:09:47.759
and they take that pure extra virgin and they cut
144
00:09:47.840 --> 00:09:51.360
it with other oils. Because you can only raise so much.
145
00:09:51.440 --> 00:09:53.960
It's a crop, it's a commodity. There's only so much
146
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:56.799
extra virgin olive oil out there. But if I cut
147
00:09:56.840 --> 00:09:59.759
it with something else, I could double my yield, double
148
00:09:59.799 --> 00:10:03.519
my profits. Actually there would be more than wu profits.
149
00:10:03.639 --> 00:10:06.600
It would probably quadruple them because you're using a lot
150
00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:11.799
less expensive oil and the profit margins then become huge.
151
00:10:12.200 --> 00:10:15.320
We think about it. You know a small scale that
152
00:10:15.360 --> 00:10:19.039
you're buying a jar of tumeric, or you know a
153
00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:21.480
small bottle of oil. But when you look at a
154
00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:25.360
worldwide market this, there's a tremendous amount of stuff. I know,
155
00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:28.879
even in myself with our formulations that we do over
156
00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:33.840
biocomplete concepts for the biocomplete line of herbs and botanicals
157
00:10:33.960 --> 00:10:39.679
that we go through a large quantity product. Just in
158
00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:43.720
our little marketplace. People have started to wake up that
159
00:10:44.200 --> 00:10:47.039
a lot of herbs and botanicals are beneficial for the body.
160
00:10:47.360 --> 00:10:51.480
They can actually do things that modern medicine can't. We've
161
00:10:51.519 --> 00:10:55.720
been fighting a war on cancer for what fifty years now,
162
00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:59.559
and they're still looking for the cure, looking for cures
163
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:02.480
and all the only place they're looking, of course, is
164
00:11:02.480 --> 00:11:05.399
in a test tube in a laboratory with a bunch
165
00:11:05.399 --> 00:11:08.159
of scientists playing chemists. It's cure for cancer has been
166
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:11.600
out there all along. We see it every single day,
167
00:11:12.240 --> 00:11:18.159
and it's very very important to understand this. I see
168
00:11:18.159 --> 00:11:20.279
a question up there, how do we know that the
169
00:11:20.320 --> 00:11:24.000
product is one hundred percent real? Well, there are ethical
170
00:11:24.039 --> 00:11:29.080
companies out there. My suppliers and our company itself are
171
00:11:29.120 --> 00:11:35.879
among them that actually do random and regular third party testing,
172
00:11:36.639 --> 00:11:39.000
not only for the purity of the product, so if
173
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:42.360
it's trumeric, it says it's trumeric, but also to make
174
00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:46.440
sure that it's not tainted with heavy metals or insecticide,
175
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:49.480
pesticides or anything of that nature. You have to base
176
00:11:49.519 --> 00:11:52.919
it on the reputation of the company, and it's a
177
00:11:53.000 --> 00:11:55.879
tough thing. That's why you should really know your suppliers.
178
00:11:56.320 --> 00:11:59.879
The fact is, most of my suppliers of this type
179
00:11:59.879 --> 00:12:04.679
of thing I've been with for over twenty years and
180
00:12:04.720 --> 00:12:07.679
they're solid. They do exactly what they say. You can
181
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:10.919
into my stores or go online and you're gonna find
182
00:12:10.960 --> 00:12:13.879
sometimes that we don't have the products and stuff. We
183
00:12:13.919 --> 00:12:17.840
don't have it available because these are crops they only
184
00:12:18.000 --> 00:12:22.320
raise so much, and you know, like any other farm products.
185
00:12:22.320 --> 00:12:24.240
And I talked about this on the meat side a
186
00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:29.799
lot as well, meat eggs and poultry and dairy that
187
00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:32.759
it's a guessing game, anstry what the demand is going
188
00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:37.159
to be for. Fortunate thing about herbs and botanicals is
189
00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:41.039
they have a lot longer shelf life than does you know,
190
00:12:41.159 --> 00:12:46.720
fresh fish foods, so we can actually overproduce and store
191
00:12:46.799 --> 00:12:49.360
some of this stuff, but even that can become an
192
00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:55.039
expensive proposition, as good quality herbs and botanicals are not cheap.
193
00:12:55.399 --> 00:12:57.879
I mean, if you tried to buy American gin sing,
194
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:02.840
for instance, you might be paying up to one thousand
195
00:13:02.879 --> 00:13:06.480
dollars a pound. Saffron is way up there, one of
196
00:13:06.559 --> 00:13:09.600
the most expensive herbs you can buy, if you can
197
00:13:09.679 --> 00:13:14.679
even find it. There are a ton of these, and
198
00:13:14.720 --> 00:13:21.200
then other things like black walnut, hull and other essentially
199
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:26.480
wild harvested. We're relying on how much nature can provide,
200
00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:29.799
how much they can do that. I got another question,
201
00:13:29.879 --> 00:13:33.320
and you're sure a pharmaceutical company hasn't bought the pharmaceutical
202
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:38.519
tour to cancer. Well, they know, These companies do know.
203
00:13:39.799 --> 00:13:42.919
And it's interesting because we have come into cases where
204
00:13:43.080 --> 00:13:49.320
shortages have developed on certain herbs of botanicals and only
205
00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:52.679
to find out that the supply has gone to several
206
00:13:52.720 --> 00:13:58.000
of the big pharmaceutical companies that are either using it
207
00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:02.080
as a component because it works, or just dumping it
208
00:14:02.279 --> 00:14:05.480
so that we cannot put it out into the public
209
00:14:06.159 --> 00:14:08.960
arena for you to make your own decisions and for
210
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:14.639
you to develop your own pathways of healing herbs last forever,
211
00:14:15.159 --> 00:14:19.240
there's actually been cases where they found herbs in ancient tombs,
212
00:14:20.000 --> 00:14:23.960
especially in the Pyramids of Egypt and some of them
213
00:14:24.000 --> 00:14:28.320
in South America as well, where there's herbs that were
214
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:30.480
used obviously as part of the ceremonies, so part of
215
00:14:30.519 --> 00:14:34.559
the rituals. And when they tested these herbs, it were
216
00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:39.600
still perfectly fine two thousand years old. And the reason
217
00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:42.480
is is they've got a lot of compounds in them
218
00:14:42.519 --> 00:14:46.440
that are actually healthy for the herb itself. That's why
219
00:14:46.480 --> 00:14:50.200
it's so healthy for us. And at the same time,
220
00:14:50.480 --> 00:14:57.679
it's not being degregated by sunlight, moisture, you know, environmental
221
00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:00.960
factors when it's in a sealed through tomb like if
222
00:15:01.000 --> 00:15:04.159
you will. Now, they didn't have glass storage, virals and
223
00:15:04.200 --> 00:15:08.360
things like that back in ancient times. We have, we
224
00:15:08.440 --> 00:15:10.799
have the ability to be able to do that. We
225
00:15:10.840 --> 00:15:15.919
can use you know, you know, different packaging materials and
226
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:19.480
packages so that it's more convenient for us, but they're
227
00:15:19.480 --> 00:15:23.519
completely neutral. Another one of the areas I always recommend
228
00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:28.320
that people look at and again at Biocomplete. One of
229
00:15:28.399 --> 00:15:32.039
the things that I've insisted since day one is all
230
00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:36.159
of our herbs and botanicals are packaged in glass and
231
00:15:37.399 --> 00:15:41.600
whatever possible. We use American made glass because it's cleaner.
232
00:15:41.759 --> 00:15:43.960
We know that because again, just like the herbs, we
233
00:15:44.039 --> 00:15:47.080
have to test our products. We test our packaging, and
234
00:15:47.759 --> 00:15:52.679
this eliminates the contamination from any of the things that
235
00:15:52.720 --> 00:15:55.600
are in plastic virals and plastic bags, which is how
236
00:15:55.679 --> 00:15:58.639
a lot of companies. In fact, this is how most
237
00:15:58.960 --> 00:16:02.879
companies store and ship their goods to you and how
238
00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:05.720
you have them in your kitchen. They're in these plastic
239
00:16:06.240 --> 00:16:11.240
shaker jars. Glass obviously is a lot more expensive, but
240
00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:14.519
we don't have the BPA, the fall eights, and the
241
00:16:14.519 --> 00:16:17.320
plasticizers as you would with any kind of plastic container.
242
00:16:17.559 --> 00:16:19.600
It would cost me a lot less money to package
243
00:16:19.840 --> 00:16:23.080
and little ziplock bags. But I don't want the contamination.
