Once I Start Using Supplements Do I Have To Do It Forever?
NO! I have always felt the best way to supplement is to do something call rotation which simply means rotating a well balanced regime to
- Protect And Feed The Gut
- Support The Portal System ( Liver Kidneys Pancreas And Gall Bladder )
- Immune Function
- Joints And Muscles
- Digest Food
Through the use of rotation, the body does not become complacent. Pulsing or rotating gives the body the reminder and support to heal and stay healthy but you are not continuing to try and do its job for it. Saying that, animals with very compromised issues or animals that have to stay on drugs (like seizure medication, NSAD’s or steroids) will need constant support.
Now there is a distinct difference between food / nutrition and supplements. For example Phytosynergy in my opinion I would consider nutrition and it is a main stay in my furry family and myself. Beneficial bacteria is also something that I consider to be helpful long term as your dogs food and our food is so depleted in natural friendly bacteria. This means giving a pre and probiotic long term is very helpful.
Since It Is A Higher Price Point Than Other Similar Products What Makes Adored Beast Line Better?
There are many reasons for this and many ways to look at this.
- There Are 0 Fillers!! Everything In Every Adored Beast Product Is A Pure, 100% Active Ingredient!! We Are So Proud To Be In The Minority Of Companies That Do Not Believe That To Just Look Bigger Is Better.
- Our Next Answer Is Another Part Of Adored Beast That We Are So Proud Of And That Is The “ Grade” Of Our Products. Some People Believe There Is “Animal Grade” = Not Fit For Human Consumption Or “ Human Grade”… Well, I Found Out All Too Quickly That It Is Just Not That Simple. How I Look At It, There Are Two Other Grades …One I Like To Call “Health Food Store Grade” = A Better Quality Than Those That Super Markets Or Drug Stores Carry (This Is Because People That Own Health Food Stores Are Usually Educated And Their Passion Resides In Health So They Demand A Higher Quality One Of Which Is Usually Not Synthetic) BUT Many Many Many Supplements That Are Human Grade Are In Fact Synthetic Which Is Known To Cause More Damage Than Not Giving A Vitamin Or Mineral At All. Then There Is Another Way Of Manufacturing Formulas Or Compounding Formulas And That Is Called “Professional Grade”. Most Companies That Do Professional Compounding Are Much Smaller Than The Huge Brand Name Manufacturers. A Professional Manufacturer Compounder Makes / Mixes / Compounds Formulas For Doctors, Veterinarians, Naturopaths, Herbalists, Homeopaths, Chiropractors, TCDr…..Because They Only Supply Professionals The Ability To Work One On One And See With Your Own Eyes The Certificate Of Analysis Including The Country Of Origin. This Is Light Years Ahead Of Just Going To A Huge Company And Having Them Make Your Formulas. All Adored Beast Products Are Produced By Manufacturers That Deal With Professionals As Described Above.
- Because Many Of The Products Have A VERY Wide Array Of Ingredients That Addresses The Body In A Synergistic Way To Support Healing And Health, They Are More Expensive Than A Less Complicated Formula. As An Example: Healthy Gut Digestive Enzyme Has ALL The Digestive Components. It Has Enzymes Made From Animal Source And Plant Source And Contains A Pre And Probiotic Which Means That You Are Getting 3 Products In One! There Are A Few Reasons We Did This.
- to save you not only money but time
- to save the difficulty of putting so many things in your animal's food
- we believe that their food is such an important and fun part of their day and it should not taste like supplements and take that enjoyment away!
I Thought Homeopathic Remedies Were Not To Be Given In Food, Why Does It Say To Do That With Gut Seal?
Many Homeopaths believe that and so did I until two things happened to me.
- I Went And Trained In India And Saw How People Were Taking Remedies Drinking Coffee Right After Eating Spicy Foods …And The Effectiveness Of The Remedies Were Never Compromised.
- I Started Doing Work With A Trap And Release Cat Rescue And Treated Many Many Cats That You Could Not Get Near By Putting It In Food And Again The Effectiveness Was Not At All Compromised
- I Worked With Large Animals And It Was Sprayed On Food, Added To Water Troughs Put In Apples Or Carrots And Once Again The Effectiveness Was Just As Good.
The next important note is that one of Adored Beasts strongest mottos is “ Above All Do No Harm” we look at this on every single level, mental, physical and emotional. The stress of having to hold your animal and spray a remedy int their mouth everyday for days on end is simply an unnecessary step when you can just as easily put it in food.
Why Do Your Products Say “Proprietary Blend”, What Does That Mean?
Do You Source Any Ingredients From China?
Are Your Products Human Grade?
This is a part of Adored Beast that we are so proud of and that is the “ Grade” of our products. Some people believe there is “animal grade” = not fit for human consumption or “ human grade”… well, I found out all too quickly that it is just not that simple. How I look at it, there are two other grades …one I like to call “health food store grade” = a better quality than those that super markets or drug stores carry (this is because people that own health food stores are usually educated and their passion resides in health so they demand a higher quality one of which is usually not synthetic) BUT many many many supplements that are human grade are in fact synthetic which is known to cause more damage than not giving a vitamin or mineral at all. Then there is another way of manufacturing formulas or compounding formulas and that is called “professional grade”. Most companies that do professional compounding are much smaller than the huge brand name manufacturers. A professional manufacturer compounder makes / mixes / compounds formulas for Doctors, Veterinarians, Naturopaths, Herbalists, Homeopaths, Chiropractors, TCDr…..because they only supply professionals the ability to work one on one and see with your own eyes the certificate of analysis including the country of origin. This is light years ahead of just going to a huge company and having them make your formulas. All Adored Beast products are produced by manufacturers that deal with professionals as described above.

My dog has arthritis, but I don’t want to give anti-inflammatory drugs forever. Help!
Your vet may prescribe NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) to relieve your dog’s pain, but we believe there are several all-natural options that are much safer, and just as effective. Here are a few of ours.
