And here's your host, Bill the Pet Health Guru, and welcome to Pet Health Cafe to show where your pet has Voice, just to build a pet health Guru, along with my special guest host, doctor Michael dem How are we doing, docs, I'm doing well. Bill.

1:06 How's it going? Long day to day? Yeah, right over. I had to make a delivery in Naples this afternoon and make it back in time for the show. Oh so, so my my heart is still going like a thousand miles an hour. Yeah. Yeah, it's a long drive for one day. Yeah, it really is. And I didn't really even have time to take a break. I mean I spent like ten minutes with the store owner and that was it. And back at and of course South Florida, you know, you know Rainy Spot after Rainy's Spot, and you couldn't see the road and that craziness that we run into all the time. Yeah. Yeah. So anyway, last week we had Barefoot Mama on Veronica.

1:49 We were talking a bit about hormones and how how energy, healing and communication and all of that sort of thing came into it, and I asked her a little bit about the communication part of it, and if you know the question, I asked a very specific question whether the animals ever complain about having a hooded of that or getting vaccinations and you know, going through that whole rituale. She says, not really, And that says that's because they don't consciously think about that. You know, they're not thinking that, oh my god, I gotta I gotta go and fulfill my postcard or my email to have this procedure done. So they're not thinking in that respect. But she did say something CAP found was very interesting. A number of dogs and cats have mentioned the word that they would like a steak. You know, they're communicating what they need and not the fears. I thought I found that to be interesting. Sure, yeah, that's a good animal communication to absolutely, Yeah, it really is. And like I said, we talked a lot about how the energy and toxins and food all effect hormones and that which is what we're going to talk a little bit more about tonight in a more in a in a bigger breakdown on you know what hormones do? You know?

3:07 Which which organs you know are the most important? Is we look down the hierarchy of hormone production and balancing, and if you want to start out, what do hormones do? Hormones are what we call messenger molecules. They're produced by various organs of the body, and they communicate with each other to perform various functions depending upon the organ that's involved. If you're looking at the pancreas, the hormones there produced. The common one that people know is insulin, an insulin like growth factor. If you're looking at organs like the thyroid gland, hormones like thyroid hormone involved with metabolism, whereas insulin is involved with sugar metabolism. So hormones really play a huge role. And of course the sex hormones and the best roles they play in the body terms of you know, just species, sexually specific behaviors, certainly bone health, joint health, mental emotional health, all of it's linked to the sex hormones, So various organs that produce these messenger molecules that communicate throughout the body to the other organs, the other organs. That's why the hormonal systems of the body is so intricate and interwoven with each other. You know, I read an interest. Actually, I'd heard an interesting fact this past weekend. I was listening to a

4:40 program that was talking about hormones and extra thing and that fat cells actually produce hormones, especially in infants and in the early development of infants, and that's why they're all kind of roly polly. They've got that extra fat layer that a collagen layer that helps with the growth factors. Yeah, yeah, very important. That's a good point, especially in our Indians and puppies too. Yeah, well that's why they're all roly polly when they're when they're young, they're so cute, you know, unless they're really mal nourished. They are like shoot little foozballs. Yeah. Kittens. Also, you know, big bellies not always due to worms. I'm like, what my conventional colleagues often point out big bellies due to, like you said, hormonal production, right, and you know, in the growth of an animal obviously. That's that's you know, we can divide it, I guess into several areas. I mean, you've got the growth and developmental hormones that are very very important, and younger animals and that sort of thing. Uh, then you've kind of got once we reach you know, you know, basically adulthood if you will, in the dogs and cats and of course ourselves. You know, the six hormones kick in, and also just to maintain the body, and a lot of hormones then they have to be produced to replace the bad cells and

6:10 the fight the toxins and the deficiencies that we all have. Is that right? Yeah? Absolutely, you know they're involved with the with you know, dealing with toxins and and various insults that the body is undergoing, especially our animals and all the toxic stresses they go under that we talk about each week on the show. You know, one of these ones that we did talk about last week, of course, is the sex hormones because of the you know the topic of spay and neuter. What does that does? How does spay and neuter affect these the hormonal balance on our puppies and kittens? Amazing? You move those sex hormones your affect you know, really the entire endeqrance system, the pituitary gland, which is often called the master gland, and the body which produces certain hormones that are stimulatory to other organ systems, for example, the like I said mentioned the thyroid, and the adrenal glands and the pancreas. So when we remove the sex hormones, we affect that that whole feedback loop which they're all involved with one another. So when you remove sex hormones, you increase the incidence of hypothyroidism in the dog, and Cushing's disease, which is the adrenal land, excessive production of cortisolve, which is a stress hormone, and you know each of these. When you remove those sex hormones, you affect vast organ systems and leading to common diseases that we

7:40 see on our animals diabetes, as I said, very common pancreatitis, all of these various organ issues that come from a deficiency of sex hormones. In fact, the studies show that the incidence of a lot of these endocrine disorders in our animals is directly related to the removal of sex hormones. And that's why, you know, the movement at the university level. I read an article not too long ago on this from Jabma that talked about teaching young veterinarians not to not to do complete castrations or aero hysterectomies, but to preserve the sex hormones by performing sexual serialization via vasectomies and male dogs or with females just removing the uterus so they can't reproduce and that way having the benefits of those sex hormones. And I think in the future, that's what we'll be saying, fortunately for you know, instead of what they do now, which is just ripping the sex organs right out of these animals at young ages too.

8:41 Yeah, I mean, it's horrible. And when that happens, actually would causes some of these other organs to be stressed as they have to take up the slack, don't they. Yeah, they sure do. And then that's what and then the immune system kicks in and you know that becomes overreactive and attacks the body's own tissues, and so there's all sorts of havoc that's reaped from removing those hormones, removing those sex hormones, and it's you know, the endocrine system is a totally integrative system. So when you remove, when you affect one component of it, you affect the entire the entire hormonal systems of the body. It's not just you know, removing the sex hormones in terms of you know, reproduction, which is you know, inhibiting their ability to reproduce. There are a vast other effects that we know in humans, and fortunately they are becoming more and more aware of that and in ventinary medicine and hopefully in the future we'll see you know, these surgical procedures become more commonplace when people choose to neuter space right exactly, now, who would we see these these other organs being basically overworked and the body the body's train, I guess when you know, the thyroid and the other organs start to make those six hormones of progesterone, the estrogen, testosterone and all of that, that's not a normal function. So that's really what they're autoimmune is fighting,

10:15 isn't it. It's you know, an improper an improper manufacturer. Yeah, it's absolutely right. Especially the adrenal glands produce you know, estrogen type compounds and and then that produces along with cortisol symptoms of cushions disease, which is a very serious condition in animals, middle aged and older animals. And you know, sex hormone removal is a direct impact on that. Not to mention the effect they're removing the sex hormones has on the bones of these animals. The you know, the bones don't mature correctly. Animals develop, they become they don't develop into what you know they they're intended to their their bones become more deformed, they're more prone to tearing ligaments like acl injuries in animals is significantly higher in the neutered mail dog or spade animal than the unspade or unnuded animal. And not to mention the cancers that are increased when you remove the sex hormones. You know, there's cancers. When I was taught in venery school that prostate cancer was a reason to recommend neutering of male dogs, and actually it's the actual opposite. The incidents of prostate cancer. I haven't seen one case in a in an intact mail dog. It's always the neutered mail dog that has the prostate cancer and bone cancer and tumors of the blood vessels known as hemangio sarcoma, which are very malignant cancers, all have been shown to be increased significantly in the neutered or spade animals, showing the role that

11:50 these hormones play in cancer regular I mean regulation of cancer cells in the body, right, And I was going to mention the cancer as well, because two, you know, when we look at diets, especially a lot of the commercial pet foods and that sort of thing using you know, like soy based on a soy based products, which is a phytoestrogen product. So that's automatically gonna throw the balance off even if they're intact, isn't it. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, So you know, so we're starting with that, and of course the cancers because those organs are overworked and basically battling their own structure. That's why the cancer shows up there. And then what, you know, what does the allopathic model do with those organs that have cancer cells.

12:39 They remove them, remove them, or throw chemo at it, or radiate the body, you know, and really kind of body slamming the body into you know, worst disease than if they just would work with the body and trying to figure out why the cancers were developing and address it at that level out of treating, treating with all these poisons and scalpel blades and and powerful radiation. Yeah, I mean, you know, I think when the more popular surgeries is still removal of the spleen, isn't it. Yeah, Yeah, that's a big one, you know. And the spleen is a you know, often becomes cancerous and our animals, sure, and the spleen is a big filter of blood cells in the body, and so when havoc is going on throughout the body and the blood cells pick up on that, you know, the spleen is an organ that often becomes affected. And we see all sorts of aggressive cancers that appear in the spleen of our animals and very often shortens their lives, especially when they go in and remove the spleen.

13:46 It's interesting my brother, my brother's dog just recently passed, had a splenic mass for oh a year, and the dog was living with it and unfortunately wasn't honor species appropriate diet and being raised holistically. But just by just leaving it alone and letting the dog live its life, it lived a whole year with this big, aggressive mass, whereas if they had done surgery on it and done all their chemo and radiation, they would have maybe gotten a few months or six months out of the dog, and the dog would have suffered through the process. So it's amazing when we leave, when we just let you know, the body do its thing. It'll try and work out solutions. Obviously, in this case, animal wasn't able to overcomes it's cancer because of factors I just mentioned. But it's amazing how long animals will live with these, you know, so called aggressive processes. I'll never forget that.

14:43 Talking about cancer. I had a case several years ago in the allopathic clinic where a dog, it was a Golden Retriever and on an ultrasound they found a tumor in one of the organs and they decided to do exploratory surgery. And they did exploratory surgery. They found those cancer everywhere in the abdomen. Called the owner said, we should put your animal to sleep on the table. And the owner said, no, I want you to so much. Suit your my animal up, bring her home. Let it come home to me. She said, I have. I'll make it soup, chicken soup. I'll pray over it. I'll take care of it. And the dog lived like two years. And when she finally put the dog to sleep, I said, wow, that's amazing that the animal lasted so long.

15:24 It's it's amazing our animals really how they can survive these dire diagnoses. And that's because you know, they don't have the ego involved with the fear around cancer. That's another big thing, right, Yeah, exactly. And you know some of the stuff that we talk about every I think we talked about it every single episode that we have, because you know, even if you get a tumor growing and especially on new organs and etra thing, the body is actually getting rid of some of those as well and removing them to heal itself, isn't it. Yeah, that's a good point. Absolutely. And of course, if you get species, body is always trying to heal itself.

16:06 I mean, that's the thing. It's it's always trying to do it. Sometimes it's not always successful, and that's when we need to come in with you know, powerful botanical herbs and homeopathy and reiki and energy medicine and communication to bring it all into play. And you know, if the body can do some remarkable healing, if it's given the opportunity. Well, when we take a step back, too, I mean, we have to look at at the environment and the proceed the other procedures that we're doing on our animals that are that are basically endequne disruptors, you know, like the fleet products and the heart worm products, and obviously what you talk about all the time, the vaccines. Those are just devastating to the body, aren't they and the whole endocrine system. You're right, and that's a good point.

16:52 They just short circus the endocrine system, not to mention many other systems in the body, the nervous system obviously, the detoxification measures of the body, the liver, the kidneys, I mean, all of these pesticides, but they really affect hormonal function as well. And as we're saying, when that hormonal function is affected, cancer just explodes in the body. It's just it's amazing, Yeah, it really is. Now. One of the things that I've I've learned over the years with the thyroid, especially quite often with the diagnosis on thyroid issues, is that the body can change from hyper to hyper in a matter of hours because the body's trying to rebalance itself and the allopathic model doesn't allow for that, does it. No, it's either black or white, all or none, that's for sure. It's not doesn't look at a continuum of hormone fluctuations like you're talking about. You know, it's funny because I had one of my human clients that came in and regular customer went to her thyroid specialist and he ended up calling me and said, hey, she's been hypo for years and we every month, every two months, we do blood work, we adjust to medication, and this time she came in and she was hyper, and he's like, what's happening now, this is

18:22 a specialist that should know this stuff. And I said, check your appointment book and see what when she normally comes in. He came back on the phone. He says, she's normally here first seeing in the morning's eight o'clock in the morning. This one was like at four o'clock in the afternoon. And I just started laughing. I said, the body tries is trying to balance that thyroid, so it's moving into the other side, and you know, it'll just keep swinging back and forth like a pendulum. And what I found over the years with you know, with you using different herbs and mechanicals we can create where that swing is much narrower. It doesn't get as radical on either side. And that give that, let's face it, that that hassle with the thyroid rest a little bit. It's not overworking, which is going to have a benefit to the value, isn't it? Yeah? Absolutely, And it allows it to you know, equalize rather than have those tremendous swings like you're saying, yeah, I'm sure we can find it, and a lot of other organs can't We sure, but true. I mean cortisol and the adrenal gland, you know, insulin or that's produced in the body, probably very similar to what you're talking about. And you know, you know you mentioned earlier about the the TC you know, the disruptors of the endocrine system. We can't forget the vaccines because vaccines actually cause antibodies to be produced against the body's own endocrine organs. So you know, Raby's vaccine,

19:52 for example, has been known causitive factor in hype, both irodism and the dog because the produces antibodies that destroy the thyroid gland.

This is Bill the Pet Health who were along with my special guestos stuff from Michael Dimmon. We're talking about hormones actually last week on the show when we were talking about this. You know, hormones are much talked about in the human medicine side as well, and of course you know, the majority of it, of course in the past has been about women, you know, and you know, menopause and things of that nature. But it's it's our don't go through the same thing. I can't go through the same thing, don't they. Yeah, sure, as you know they get up there in years, they go through what would be considered menopause if they have their sex hormones, that is right.

22:36 Obviously when we remove them, they're going through menopause a lot younger for sure. Yeah. Well, I mean that it was an example I've used, I've used it over the years, is that you know, back when I was growing up, that and you know, as soon as they hit that age and they started, you know, things started to happen. The first thing they did was a hysterectomy on our moms and our grand moms and they were never the same again. No, I mean, you know part of it, Bill, you know, dealing with you know, when we domesticated our animals, especially cats, and we have to go through their repetitive heat cycles. As one of your clients, which you refer to me, to discuss about what we can do to less than the impact of the animals the behavior around heat and the cats when they're in heat, when they go through their seasonal heats, it's every few weeks, and it's just you know, it becomes very difficult for a guardian to have to go through. But it's a natural process for the animal, and you know it's unfortunately when we domesticate them, we expect them to adjust to our schedules and how we like it. But you know, there was nothing I could offer that client other than to you know, work through it as best she could or unfortunately having to spay our animal. You know, domestication has its downside too, Bill, exactly, I know, and and of course I know this particular client was facing trying to raise her pets naturally and was faced with a whole bunch

24:06 of you know, roadblocks, you know when as far as it came to vaccinations and everything, just as a you know, a precursor to what veteran what the pathic model says, it is a simple operation, but we know it. You know, there's a ton of side effects that can happen just in that simple procedure, aren't there. Yeah, some of them not just from the procedure itself, but from the medications used to perform the procedure. The sedatives, the anesthetics, the antibiotics, they all can have long lasting impacts on health. Yeah, it's true. Another one of the organs, of course, that is problematic, I guess when it comes to the cancers, is the pancreas, tiny little organ nets working hard all the time.

24:56 And if you get a tumor, you the main concern is it bursting, isn't it the bleeding out in the relatively short period of time? Yeah, yeah, absolutely. Pancreatic tumors, spunic tumors, very vascular tumors for sure. And of course the pancreas has production both as a hormonal organ where it produces hormones like insulin and other hormones, and then it produces the digestive enzymes that allows animals to digest their own food. And of course when we feed them cooked, processed food food or synthetic commercial diets. Oh, the tremendous strain those on the pancreas is just amazing because our animals didn't evolve, their pancreas didn't evolve to digest diets like that, So that puts a tremendous load on that organ and doing its work, and that's why we see so much pancreatic disease in our animals today. Right. I mean, the one thing I stress a lot when I when I'm talking to about the foods and the nutritional part of it and balancing is there. The carnivore is really not designed to produce very much amilase because there's no carbs and very little carbs in the diet. So it's working overtime now to break down all these heavy carbs, and even the proteins are wrong because they're normally grain based or bean based proteins.

26:19 But then because of the carbs, the insulin level that they have to produce is through the sky isn't it. Yeah, Yeah, and that just leads to you know, increase incidence of diabetes and other disorders of the pancreas. It's just it's amazing. The pancreas does take a hip and allopathically raised and raised animals, and it's a battle that we fight. You and I flight every day and and you know it's until until people wake up. That's what it's going to be. Now, from a a prevents you of approach, what would you suggest that clients do to help maintain that endocrine system?

27:07 Well, I mean I definitely try and encourage discourage spaying and neutering when I can. I preached that all the time, as I did last night at a lecture at Hypocrates. That's an important measure minimizing stress to our animals, you know, whether it's the stress from ourselves or the stress of you know, drugs and medications and other preventative measures of healthcare. You know, to maintain optimal hormonal levels, we have to feed our animals appropriately, you know, through the species appropriate diets, through various botanicals and glandulars that you know that store like my paleopet provides, and so you know, we really have to be mindful of the external factors that really disrupt our hormonal systems of the body. And I had a client today new clients that I sent it lived not too far from the store, will be. A new customer came up with her corgis, you know, an adult corgy and a puppy, and the consultation was all about you know, not going home with drugs and pesticides and warmings and vaccines and and all those factors that all affect our hormonal systems.

28:26 And you know, it was a consult I said, you know, I sat in my chair and we spoke and I just taught her about what it was like to raise animals that way. And you know, she left with no no bags of drugs and big foods and all of that, with just knowledge. And I said, you know, if your animals should be on autopilot, you know, with with that type of care, with good holistic care and a species of appropriate diet. That's that's the biggest part of it is is you know that we do is the educational part. And that's one reason why why people that are listening to us now and in the you know, in the future, you know, you really need to share this information. Share our sites, share our podcasts and our video podcasts, now the TV. Share it and like it and subscribe to it. You know, it's available twenty four seven on many of the platforms, so you don't you know, if you can catch our live show, and of course I encourage people during the live show to you know, post their comments if they will. And there are questions that we can answer them, but it you know, you spent a considerable amount of time. I'm sure with that client today. I do the same thing in store, and it's you know, we're dealing on a one on one basis, which is fine, but we're only talking to one, you know, one person or one family and at one and it's a single type of educational process. And sometimes I know myself, I sometimes give them so much information. I know that they leave the

29:57 store with their you know, their brain is about ready to explode, which is why I haven't called my cell phone. Whenever they want to, I give that number out, that's the fourteen or four number that's on the biocomplete on the screen, and because I know they're gonna get home and it's gonna be like, well, no, what did you say? About that and how much of this should I use? And you know, how often do I rotate the diets? And uh, when do I call doctor them? You know, all these things fit into that, and so you know that sharing and lighting is very, very important. And you know, I know that I probably get more calls on that part of it than you do, because obviously you make your money on the consultation, where I can at least make some of my rather do on the foods and the you know, the herbs and stuff. So but both parts of that are equally important, aren't they. Yeah. Yeah, And then you know, as you always speak about, you know, healing is a dynamic process. So you know, sometimes during the process, certain layers or express themselves or certain tendencies, and then like you would do, you would rotate the herbs that the animal might be on, or add or take things away. We have to change things in the homeopathic perspective. It's not just you go on autopilot and everything is just, you know, perfect forever. You know, there are going to be little bumps in the road, and that's when your expertise and my expertise comes in to try and help with that process. As we peel back layers

31:30 of an onion, you know, so to speak, with various tendencies that animals have. Unfortunately, due to a lot of the factors we talk about every week on the show. Well, the other thing is too now, you know, because we're also baddling the allopathic side of it. And you know, when when the issues start, they come up, and of course they're treating a symptom, and the treatments, as you're well aware, don't do any real healing or healing ben fits, but it's just masking that the conditions are actually getting worse and worse aren't they Yeah, Or they're going deeper within the body, as we talk about, you know, So when we suppress a surface symptom of the body, what happens is is that illness or imbalance will attack deeper areas or effect like we talked about all the time, the deeper organs like the liver and the kidneys and the bladder and you know, the heart and the nervous system. And it's just it's a cascade of events. So seemingly stopping that itching with a brand new shot or a new pill might seem very attractive. Sorry about that, my daughter, Sorry, Sorry, I gotta hurt turn her off anyway. Daughter. But anyway, as I was saying, you know, there basically is, you know, a cascade of events that occurs, and it's rarely just stopping the itching that happens. It's a whole you know, the body is really taken for a loop. Every time we get that it's shot or that inch pill just you

33:02 know, it just does and eventually we pay the automo pays the price. Yeah, and generally speaking, of course, when it doesn't, when it stops working, it is effectively because the condition is actually gone deeper and it's actually much much worse. Then they're just layering more and more drugs on top of the procedures on top of that, and you know the owners are sitting there going like I'm spending thousands and thousands of dollars and nothing seems to help. And you know that's where you know, most of the time with you and I and the people that we see just even just the simplest thing of changing a diet, they see a difference within one week. You know, you throw in homeopathy, youth, throw in herbs that start to clean up the body, and you know, we have to do things in an orderly fashion as well, because you can't flush out the heavy metal toxins without having a clean liver and a kidney and emphatic system, because you're gonna be shocking the body. And of course I've been talking a lot lately, and we'll get a minute here before the break, but a lot about ionized water and how that worked about seventy percent water. We have to continue to flush it out, and if we don't flush it out, you know, it just you know, this stuff just keeps backing up and backing up and backing up.

34:24 And you know, I just I read something again in the last week that over age, just processed food, cooked food, and people causes a build up of mucus in these small intestine to the point where you can't really absorb the nutrients anymore because of the thickness of that that intestinal wall. And you know, basically that intestine should be able to push things through easily, and you could be eating which you think is the cleanest food in the world, but it doesn't always work. We're gonna come right back here after this quick break and talk a little bit more with doctor Damn. Does your pet suffer from allergies? Cancer? Digestive issues or joint and skin problems.

We're along with doctor Michael dem So. We've we've put out

37:30 a lot of information here on the witty instrument system works and how the hormones they're so are so important and vital to a healthy body. And you just kind of summed it up as to as to you know what individual owners can do to you know, prevent some of the problems that we might have and that sort of thing. Now, do you have any other little tidbits on on the hormone balance be well we move on to possibly a couple of little little housekeeping deals here. Well, like I said, it's I think just our animal's hormonal systems are perfect as they evolved to be, and we can't come along and manipulate it, or interfere with it, or try and suppress it, or in any way that we can. So just letting things be and doing a less is more approach with our animals, you'll have happier animals and more balanced hormonal systems. And the less we interfere with nature's processes, whether it's through altering their reproduction or whether it's through synthetic drugs, better off and the healthier they are. And to me, that's the recipe for optimal hormones opti hormonal balance in the body. Yeah, yeah, there's a lot of truth to that. Now. One of the things too, that you know, I think some of our clients and some of the listeners aren't really familiar with you know, you're listened as a holistic practitioner. You know,

39:00 there's everybody now that does anything alternative puts their shingle out saying I'm holistic, but holically has to do with the whole body, not with the you know one or two you know, modalities of alternative that they might be doing. How is it? How is your practice and how do you practice that is completely different than other people? Well, I mean what I try and do is I mean, first of all, I don't have a lot of equipment. There's there's not a lot really needed. I have my homeopathic software where I analyze symptoms and sometimes coming up with a with a remedy for a case. I have my Homeopathic Remedy toolbox, which you know are very inexpensive little pellets that we use after analyzing a case. And so in my practice, it's basically me, my stethoscope, my ears, my hands, you know, and uh and that's it. And you know, once I I have an understanding of the case, I then prescribe a remedy or I'll or I'll suggest certain herbal botanicals or foods. And that's the basis of my practice.

40:10 It's not doing X rays, running extensive lab tests that can all be done at any you know, veterinarian up the block. But what I trying to do is get to know, my know, the individual patient, understand what the imbalance or disease is in that patient, and come up with an individualized treatment plan which includes basically, you know, a remedy, nutritional therapies, and appropriate diet. And so that's the extent of my practice. There's no you know, both you know, benefits of both worlds. There's no you know, mixing the two at the time. I mean, I know, when Western medicine is needed, I told the client today, if there's trauma, if there's broken bones or mechanical obstruction, either in the urinary tract or in the digest subtract, then of course western medicine certainly has its place.

41:02 But other than that, I mean, we can really treat and help and cure many cases with just you know, homeopathy, nutritional therapies and time and patience bill, you know, I mean, And that's you know, of course, that's been my approach as well, except that I've got the actual products freezers and the grinders and everything else and make sure that we can make whatever we need to. But even that in itself is not always the easiest because we're still experiencing food shortages. Now we're looking at you know, the FDA and the USDA insisting on our food animals receiving vaccinations, and you know, they're mixing in the like in the meats supply old dairy cattle which have been on antibiotics and hormones and steroids and fed GMO corn and soy spring with life fast and all these chemicals that are actually in the foods themselves. And that creates even a bigger problem for somebody like you because you're you're normally when they come to see you. I mean, I don't know what percentage come in when they're already feeding out the species appropriate raw diet. But you have to, you know, to get the move to the other side is a major challenge, isn't it. It sure is. You know, people you know say, well, I'm feeding a natural kibble. You know it's it's not just as good. I mean, I was at I was at Hippocrates

42:34 yesterday and one of the members in the audience, you know, raise their hand and said, can you recommend a good kibble? And I said, well, not really, I said, you know, there are some that are not as bad as others. But I can't say they're as good as anything that's fresh, that's for sure. But you know, people are they want simple bill, They want to just open a bag and you know, seal off a can in and put it down and it's done. But you know, health there's a lot more than that, as you and I know, yeah, I know, I had one day before yesterday, they came in and she brought her little bag with all her her good healthy foods, her healthy raw food, which of course it's normally a freeze dried there's nothing raw about freeze dried food, especially since number one, they went through pasteurization and then they freeze or burned them to get the freeze dried process, and you know most of the you know, nutrients are gone, and then you settle reading down and you're seeing all these synthetic vitamins that they're putting in, and you know it's people still believe that's natural. How how I can't rent my head rouf math? Right? Well, they're you know, they're trying to do shortcuts into the you know, the species of appropriate raw diet.

43:55 And you know, whether it's through freeze dried or now a kibble. I had some woman in the audience as they ask, can you recommend an organic food? Whatever? That right? I mean? Today? I mean, how can you have anything truly organic unless it's basically raised or grown in a vacuum because just the chem trails and the commercial spraying, and we talked about it on other shows that the invisible toxins from you know, cars and trucks and planes. You know, the thousands of planes that fly overhead, even if they're not spraying chem trails, then burnt jet fuel and fuels are all coming down where our animals are living in the grass and on the streets, and then our house and we're tracking it in and then we had in our household chemicals. You know. Yeah, it's amazing. And you know people often ask me Bill, and maybe you can comment on this is when you know they want to do it, let's say themselves. They just want to go to the butcher and get the meat and all that. And I think it's good for you to explain to the audience how you know you've taken all the guests work out of all that you know and what you and the product you supply, rather than people just going to the store and buying this and buying that. Do you find that you get a lot of questions with that.

45:15 They want to do it themselves when we get a large amount. The biggest challenge is number one, they have to learn that the rotation is the most important thing. You know, a different meal, different proteins, or make mixture of proteins every day. But the second part is if you're doing it yourself, important things that the animals need is a part of that basically natural diet, what they would eat, you know, the pre model diet are some of the second things that you can't buy in a normal supermarket today, things like hearts and liver and kidneys and a variety of different ones as well, you know, because you know a poor kidney is going to be different than a beef kidney, and you know a chicken gizzard is different than a turkey gizzard. So you need all these different things. Each one of those brings different nutrients to the table. I talk a lot just in beef.

46:12 I'm a meat eater. I love good state. And when you look at a porterhouse, okay, you've got a file at you've got a New York strip, and you've got a RIBI. All three of those have different tastes because they have different nutritional profiles. So just switching off is very, very important. And you know, again we just killed another hour. I mean, I don't know where it goes, doctor Dim, but anyway, let's take take a minute here and give give everybody a perspective on how they can reach you and some of the things that maybe some of the other things you can help them with.
