The skin is one of the most vital organs of the body and one most likely to reflect your pet’s state of overall health. It’s true that environmental factors like humidity, fleas, and fungus can affect your dog’s or cat’s skin. Skin disorders can also appear when your companion is struggling with an issue inside the body, like allergies, digestive problems, or difficulty eliminating waste or toxins.
Only Natural Pet Skin Wellness was designed to help your pets feel good in their skin. It supports healthy skin by promoting a healthy inflammatory response and facilitating recovery from skin imbalances. This formula also supports skin health at a deeper system level by facilitating removal of wastes from the body and supporting healthy circulatory functions. The carefully selected ingredients in Skin Wellness work synergistically to:
- Reduce irritation in skin tissues
- Ease physical signs present in a variety of skin disorders
- Aid normal detoxification processes for healthy response to inflammation
- Support the body’s repair of skin tissues once irritations subside
- Promote temperature and moisture balance in accordance with principles of Chinese medicine
Quality Ingredients
- MSM (Methyl Sulfonyl Methane): MSM is a natural sulfonyl (sulfur) compound produced in the fluids and tissues of all living creatures. MSM helps reduce inflammation, improves circulation, and improves cell wall respiration by moving nutrients and oxygen into cells and waste toxins out.
- Rehmannia Root Raw (Rehmannia rutinosa): In Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), Rehmannia (shu di huang) is used to nourish the blood and replenishes the vital essence and marrow. It addresses system issues TCM commonly relates to skin disorders, namely syndromes of excessive heat in the blood, impairment of body fluid generation and Yin-deficiency in all channels.
- Buplerum Root: Buplerum is one of the most important herbs used in Chinese medicine. It is useful to relieve liver tension, heat and digestive disturbances because of its detoxifying properties. Buplerum has the ability, when combined with other herbs to clear stagnation virtually anywhere in the body. Buplerum serves the purposes of relieving blocks, imbalances and tension while eliminating toxins.
- Sarsaparilla Root (Smilax officinalis): Sarsaparilla has been used worldwide for many health issues, including wound healing, digestive disorders, psoriasis and other skin disorders. Clinical research has validated the traditional use of sarsaparilla for various skin conditions. Individuals with some skin conditions have been found to have high levels of endotoxins (toxic cell wall fragments found in normal gut bacteria) circulating in the bloodstream. Sarsaponin, one of sarsaparilla's main steroids, was found to bind to these endotoxins and remove them from the blood, with resulting improvement in skin health.
- Yellow Dock Root (Rumex crispus): Yellow Dock has blood-cleansing properties and this makes it an outstanding herb for all skin issues associated with impurities in the blood. Yellow Dock assists in resolving skin disorders, poison ivy, and other rashes. It is useful in reducing lymph gland enlargement, which facilitates normal flow of lymph fluid to carry waste from the bloodstream. Yellow Dock is also used to restore healthy digestive balance and healthy liver function. It stimulates the production of bile and digestive fluids, which helps to stimulate the bowels for proper elimination.
- Red Clover Blossoms (Trifolium pretense): Red clover is thought to "purify" the blood in part by improving circulation and stimulating the secretion of bile. This herbal extract cleanses the blood and lymph, clears the skin, and eases inflammatory conditions such as eczema and psoriasis. Red clover is a source of many valuable skin-nourishing health co-factors including calcium, chromium, magnesium, niacin, phosphorus, potassium, thiamine, and vitamin C.
- Burdock Root (Arctium lappa): Traditional herbal medicine denotes Burdock as “nature's best blood purifier," commonly used to clear the bloodstream of toxins. Burdock is also used in treating dry and scaly skin disorders such as psoriasis, dandruff, and eczema, particularly when they are caused by a general systemic imbalance. It is invaluable as a cleansing and purifying agent, especially when there is a buildup of toxins leading to skin problems and digestive sluggishness. Burdock is also noted for releasing fluid retention and as a natural antimicrobial.
- Cleavers Whole Herb (Galium aparine): Cleavers is an herb used to strengthen the lymphatic system and to aid in the removal of metabolic waste from congested lymph nodes and body tissues. This herb is especially helpful for chronic swelling and congestion of lymph glands and skin disorders. Cleavers aids the blood in a healthy detoxification process as well as assisting the body to reduce fluid retention.
- Calendula Flowers (Calendula officinalis): When looking for an herb to soothe skin or wounds, herbalists turn to Calendula for its long history of use as a skin-soothing botanical. This lovely marigold-like flower is known as a substance that promotes healing. Calendula also has anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial activity. Calendula extract is beneficial for the reversal of numerous skin and tissue conditions. Calendula soothes irritation, replenishes elasticity and promotes new tissue growth.
- Horsetail Herb (Equisetum arvense): The Horsetail plant contains the highest amount of silica of all known herbs. Silica is found in connective tissues throughout the body and is important in the building and repair of healthy connective tissues and skin. It has also been used to reduce fluid retention.
- Chinese Rhubarb Root (Rheum officinale): Rhubarb root has properties that make it a highly effective elimination stimulant. Its astringent qualities help to improve bowel tone after it has purged the intestines, making it an excellent agent for improving the tone and health of the digestive tract. Skin eruptions caused by problems in elimination are also addressed by rhubarb root.
- Dong Quai Root (Angelica sinensis): Dong Quai is used in TCM to nourish the blood, which will in turn nourish the skin to facilitate recovery of skin tissues. If Ginseng is known as the “king” of Chinese herbs, Dong Quai is the “queen.” It is traditionally used as a potent and effective blood builder and blood tonic, promoting healthy circulation.
