Natural Anemia Supplements for Dogs and Cat
If your furkiddo is battling a serious illness (like cancer), or infection, their lymph and bone health could be compromised and lead to issues like anemia and jaundice.
Anemia on its own is not a disease. If your furry friend has been diagnosed with anemia, it tells us that something else is going on. This is a condition where there is a decrease in red blood cells in the body. When this happens, all body systems can quickly slow down because one of the main jobs of red blood cells is to transport oxygen. Without adequate oxygen delivery, your cat or dog may experience a tired, weak body and refuses to play (low energy). In extreme cases, they may be unable to breathe well and have a pale nose or tongue. Because anemia is generally the result of a disease, you may see other signs like increased thirst and urination, vomiting, dark-colored stool, jaundice or general weakness.
Your furkiddo's vet may ask for additional testing to look at their blood chemistry and urine to look for an underlying cause such as infectious disease or an autoimmune condition (that can cause blood loss). Radiographs and ultrasounds may also be recommended. Anemia is a common issue in senior pets and terminally ill dogs and cats.
Young animals also frequently have anemia due to their increased growth rate in the first few months of life (usually under 4 months old).
To learn more about how to help pets with anemia, read our vet talk with Dr. Cooke.
How NHV Supplements Help Prevent Anemia in Dogs and Cats
Depending on the underlying cause of anemia, your pet's vet will come up with an appropriate care plan that may include nutritional supplementation and the addition of blood enriching foods like beef and liver. For a natural approach to help combat blood deficiency and low iron levels that often accompany anemia, we recommend NHV's Anemia Super Support Kit. This bundle, which may be used alongside vet-prescribed medications, contains Multi Essentials, Yucca and Turmeric. Multi Essentials is like an herbal multivitamin for pets. Its 11 nutrient dense herbs can help combat the effects of blood loss caused by issues like autoimmune disease, bone marrow insufficiency, low iron, parasite infestation, or abnormal cell growth (neoplasia). Yucca contains beneficial herbal ingredients like saponins that help flush the liver and other vital organs to prevent conditions like jaundice and help with effective digestion. Turmeric contains a rich source of antioxidants that can help improve liver detoxification and supports healthy circulatory function (improved energy levels).
