Pets are Happier and Healthier with Neem Products

Our furry friends are one of the best part of our lives, but the food we feed them and the products we use on them may be causing more harm than good. Cumulatively, consumption of highly processed foods and excess calories has led pets to suffer from a variety of health problems with potentially irreversible consequences, including obesity, arthritis, periodontal disease, diabetes, cancer and serious skin conditions caused by treatments for mites and fleas.

What’s Wrong with Products for Pets?

By providing their pets with commercially available dry and moist foods and treats, owners are lured into a false sense of security that their pet’s best health is being served. As a result of certain pet food manufacturers’ efforts to create a less expensive product using poorer quality ingredients, our companion animals can suffer life-threatening toxicity.

In 2007, an international pet food crisis caused kidney failure and death in dogs and cats who had consumed pet foods containing melamine-contaminated wheat gluten produced in China. Wheat gluten is a grain by-product which provides a cheaper alternative to muscle meat protein or whole grain carbohydrates. Melamine is a component of plastic which increases nitrogen content and protein levels when added to wheat gluten.

The most popular kind of flea control product on the market is the “spot-on” variety. The active ingredients in these solutions include chemicals such as imidacloprid, fipronil, permethrin, methoprene, and pyriproxyfen, all of which have caused serious health problems in animals in laboratories.

Neem Protects Your Pets

Neem’s antiviral and antibacterial properties can help treat a variety of health issues in both humans and animals, from digestive issues to skin conditions, neem can provide a whole different alternative as an ingredient in pet foods and medication.

Neem can help dogs with fleas, ticks, mosquitoes, intestinal parasites and manage mites. It promotes a strong immune system, healthy skin, a shiny, problem free coat, and strong, healthy teeth – all signs of a radiantly healthy dog. Check here http://onestopplumbers.com. Give your pet a regular wash with neem shampoo and occasionally supplement their food with a neem leaf capsule, but remember never to use undiluted neem oil on yourself or your pet.
