Our pets can bring us so much joy, peace, and companionship, and we want to provide them with the best care possible. Unfortunately, like humans, there are a number of health issues our pets can encounter throughout their lives. Whether your pet is up against a neurological condition, nervous system or immune system issue, ALS or AIDS diagnosis, a thyroid problem, cancer, chronic UTIs, lipomas, allergies, hot spots, teeth issues, bad breath, or deficiencies of any kind, there are steps that you can take to support your animal through their health struggles and help them to be the healthiest they can be. I know you consider your pet a part of your family and would do whatever you can to be there for your animal. This article will address common health issues that pets experience, highlight some great supplement and food recommendations, and give you a brief glimpse into the care and support I offer my own four-legged family members.
寵物可以帶給我們許多歡樂和陪伴，我們也希望為它們提供最好的照顧。不幸的是，就像人類一樣，我們的寵物一生中也會遇到許多健康問題。無論寵物面對的是神經系統疾病、神經系統或免疫系統問題，硬化症、甲狀腺疾病、癌症、慢性尿路感染，脂質瘤、過敏、化膿性皮炎、牙齒問題、口臭或任何類型健康問題，我們可以採取一些步驟幫助其改善，使其成為健康的動物。許多人將寵物視為家庭的一部分，並且會為動物盡其所能。本文將介紹寵物遇到的常見健康問題、一些有幫助的食物和補充劑建議，並簡要介紹一下我如何給我家的寵物提供支持和護理。
August’s Story
奧古斯特的故事
In the first chapter of my book Medical Medium, I tell the miraculous story of when I saved my dog, August, thanks to the guidance of Spirit and the tremendous support of angelic power. Years ago, we were in New England, taking a walk along the shore of an inlet. August bounded into the frigid water to play and ended up getting stuck far out in the tumultuous waves due to the rough current and a patch of seaweed blocking her from returning to shore. I immediately ripped off my boots and jacket and dove into the bitter cold water, hoping to save my precious loved one and best friend.
在我的書《醫靈》的第一章中，我講述了一個奇蹟般的故事：在聖靈的指引和天使力量的巨大支持下，我救了我的愛犬奧古斯特。幾年前，我們在新英格蘭，沿著一個水灣的岸邊散步。奧古斯特跳進冰冷的海水裡玩耍，結果卻被洶湧的海流和一片海藻困在了很遠的海面上，無法回到岸邊。我立刻脫掉靴子和外套，跳進冰冷的海水裡，希望能救我摯愛的摯友。
When I was about halfway to August, Spirit instructed me to return to shore (you can read more about who Spirit is in my first book Medical Medium also.) I refused, but Spirit insisted, telling me I was already losing the capacity to function because of the frigid waters and would not be able to save August. August had helped me stay strong throughout so much of my life, and I cracked under the thought of losing my beloved companion, yelling out to Spirit in frustration and anger as I was struggling to stay afloat.
當我游到奧古斯特身邊一半的時候，神靈指示我返回岸邊（你也可以在我的第一本書《醫者靈媒》中了解更多關於神靈的信息）。我拒絕了，但神靈堅持要我上岸，告訴我我已經因為冰冷的海水而喪失了行動能力，無法拯救奧古斯特。奧古斯特在我生命的大部分時間裡幫助我保持堅強，想到即將失去摯愛的伙伴，我崩潰了，一邊掙扎著浮在水面上，一邊沮喪而憤怒地向神靈大喊大叫。
At this point, I could no longer feel my body. Orchestrating a miracle for me, Spirit changed his instructions and instead of insisting I head towards the shore, Spirit told me to swim out another fifteen feet. Only because of Spirit helping me was I able to push myself further out into the water. Once I had traveled further into the treacherous bay, I followed Spirit’s instructions to take a deep breath and swim eight feet below the surface. Something other than the adrenaline that was already coursing through my system seemed to infuse my body at this point. Eight feet under water, I opened my eyes and saw August, with her red collar around her neck, in the arms of a female Angel. In a state of euphoria as the angel handed me August, I began to pull her up to the surface of the water. When we emerged, Spirit was standing on top of the water looking directly at me. In my entire lifetime of hearing Spirit constantly talking to me this was only the second time I’d ever seen Spirit. The first time was at age four when I received my gift. At this point, my fear had passed and immense relief and gratitude washed over me until Spirit told me that we were out of time, the Angel was leaving and that I must hurry back to shore while the angelic power was still present. At this moment it dawned on me that the only reason I was able to move through the freezing cold waters was due to the powerful angelic assistance. As relief turned into panic again, I fought my way with everything I had left in me to get back to shore with August, completely drained and hypothermic, but grateful we both survived.
這時，我已感覺不到自己的身體。神靈為我安排了一個奇蹟，改變了指示，不再堅持讓我游向岸邊，而是讓我再游出十五英尺。多虧了神靈的幫助，我得以進一步潛入水中。深入危險的海灣後，我按照神靈的指示深吸一口氣，潛入水下八英尺。此時，除了體內早已奔湧的腎上腺素之外，似乎還有什麼東西注入了我的身體。在水下八英尺，我睜開眼睛，看到奧古斯特，脖子上戴著紅色項圈，被一位女天使抱在懷裡。當天使把奧古斯特遞給我時，我欣喜若狂，開始把她拉到水面上。當我們浮出水面時，神靈正站在水面上直視我。在我一生中，我一直聽到神靈不斷地對我說話，這只是我第二次見到神靈。第一次是在我四歲收到禮物的時候。這時，我的恐懼消失了，無比的輕鬆和感激湧上心頭，直到聖靈告訴我，時間不多了，天使正在離開，我必須趁著天使的力量還在的時候趕緊回到岸邊。這時我才恍然大悟，之所以能在冰冷的海水中游動，完全是因為天使強大的力量。當輕鬆再次變成恐慌時，我用盡全身的力氣，和奧古斯特一起回到岸邊。奧古斯特筋疲力盡，體溫也低得可憐，但我很慶幸我們兩個都活了下來。
I thanked Spirit for helping me with August’s miraculous rescue and I realized it was the first time I’d ever said thank you to Spirit in my life. Largely because of this emotional event, after many years of bitterness and frustration about the gift I’d been given, I decided to stay committed to spreading the healing information Spirit relayed to me everyday despite the hardships I endured so many years ago. I owed Spirit, and I owe all of you who desperately need accurate healing information to bring you the truth so you and your loved ones can finally heal. My dog, August, was a critical part of that life-changing commitment.
我感謝聖靈幫助我奇蹟般地拯救了奧古斯特，我意識到這是我一生中第一次對聖靈說謝謝。很大程度上是因為這次令人感動的事件，在經歷了多年對自己所獲贈的禮物的苦澀和沮喪之後，我決定繼續致力於傳播聖靈每天傳遞給我的療愈信息，儘管我多年前經歷了那麼多苦難。我欠聖靈的，也欠你們所有迫切需要準確療癒信息的人，聖靈會將真理帶給你們，讓你們和你們所愛的人最終能夠痊癒。我的愛犬奧古斯特，是這項改變生命的承諾中至關重要的一部分。
I tell this story to highlight just how important my pets are to me. They are part of my family, and I would do whatever I could to save their lives. They have had an impact on some of the most important moments in my life, and I don’t know where I would be without them. When I share the guidance and truth in this article, I share it with all the care and love I have for my pets and all the pets around the world.
我講這個故事是為了強調我的寵物對我有多重要。它們是我家庭的一部分，我願意盡我所能去挽救它們的生命。它們影響了我生命中一些最重要的時刻，如果沒有它們，我不知道我會怎麼樣。當我分享這篇文章中的指導和真理時，我傾注了我對我的寵物以及全世界所有寵物的全部關愛和愛。
Creating Support
創造支持
There are a number of health issues you have to watch out for as a pet owner, and because your pet can’t describe the pain or problems they may be experiencing, it is essential that you surround yourself and your pet with proper support. This extra support can allow you to have greater insight into your pet’s health and wellness.
作為寵物主人，您需要注意許多健康問題。由於您的寵物無法描述它們可能正在經歷的疼痛或問題，因此，為您和您的寵物提供適當的支持至關重要。這些額外的支持可以讓您更深入地了解寵物的健康狀況。
Working with a compassionate, understanding veterinarian is crucial. In my opinion, holistic veterinarians were often dismissed by the veterinarian community in years past. Fortunately, times have changed and holistic veterinarians no longer experience the exclusion they once did. Some people opt for a holistic vet, while others choose to work with a more conventionally-minded veterinarian. Presently, many veterinarians seem to be implementing a mix of both allopathic and holistic ideas in their practices. Regardless of what type of veterinarian you choose to work with, it is critical you find a veterinarian that you love and respect, and someone who will work with you to best support your pup, kitty, or other precious pet.
與一位富有同情心、善解人意的獸醫合作至關重要。在我看來，過去幾年，整體獸醫常常被獸醫界排斥。幸運的是，時代變了，整體獸醫不再像以前那樣被排斥。有些人選擇整體獸醫，而有些人則選擇與更傳統思維的獸醫合作。目前，許多獸醫似乎在他們的實踐中融合了對抗療法和整體療法的概念。無論您選擇與哪種類型的獸醫合作，找到一位您喜愛和尊重的獸醫至關重要，並且他願意與您合作，為您的幼犬、幼貓或其他珍貴的寵物提供最好的支持。

Therapy Companions
療癒夥伴
If you have a pet in your life, you probably already know in your heart and soul that they make wonderful therapy companions. Whether it be a dog, cat, bird, horse, rabbit, or other cuddly critter, your pet can help you heal.
如果生活中有寵物，我們在內心和靈魂中會知道它們是出色的療癒伴侶。無論是狗、貓、鳥、馬、兔子還是其他可愛的小動物，寵物都可以幫助我們療癒。
Pets actually stimulate your immune system and can play a part in helping heal disease and illness. It may be surprising to learn that your natural killer cells can become more responsive when around your pets. Your platelets are also incredibly responsive, and having a pet in your life can positively stimulate platelet production if you’re someone struggling with a low platelet condition. A pet can help your adrenals calm down and balance out. Yes, there is the uncommon instance where your dog tears up the couch, rips the stuffing out, and eats it. During these rare occasions, your adrenals may surge as you frantically worry about what your dog ate and observe the state of your couch. But, these temporary, infrequent moments of frustration are far outweighed by the countless moments where the time spent with your pet actually brings incredible healing for your adrenals, immune system, and more.
寵物實際上能刺激免疫系統，並在疾病康復過程中發揮作用。令人驚訝的是，當您與寵物相處時，自然殺傷細胞的反應能力會增強。血小板同樣具有高度反應性，若您正受血小板減少症困擾，飼養寵物能有效促進血小板生成。寵物還能幫助腎上腺平靜下來，恢復平衡狀態。當然，偶爾會發生狗狗撕毀沙發、扯出填充物甚至吞食的狀況。在這些罕見時刻，當你焦慮地擔心愛犬吞下什麼、檢視沙發慘狀時，腎上腺素確實可能飆升。然而，這些短暫而罕見的挫折感，遠遠不及與寵物共度的無數時光——那些時光實際上為你的腎上腺、免疫系統乃至整體健康帶來驚人的療癒效果。
If you don’t have a pet, but you scratch the back of your neighbor's dog or pet your friend’s cat, you are still stimulating your immune system. Just touching an animal or briefly cuddling with an animal can elicit positive responses in the body.
即使你沒有飼養寵物，但若你幫鄰居的狗搔搔背，或撫摸朋友的貓咪，同樣能刺激你的免疫系統。只要觸碰動物或短暫擁抱牠們，便足以在體內引發正向反應。
Hot Spots
Cysts, Tumors & Nodules
囊腫、腫瘤與結節
Many animals develop cysts, tumors, and nodules during their lifetimes. Lipomas can grow quite large in both cats and dogs. If your pet has a lipoma, working to stop the fatty tumor’s growth is a great first step. Angiogenesis occurs during the development of a lipoma and tiny tentacle-like roots extending out from the tumor constantly search for food. Consequently, if you feed your animals toxic foods that fuel the lipoma, its roots will draw these foods in and it will continue to grow. However, taking certain toxic foods out of your pet’s diet can halt the the growth of this fatty lump.
許多動物在一生中會形成囊腫、腫瘤及結節。脂肪瘤在貓狗體內可能長得相當巨大。若您的寵物患有脂肪瘤，首要之務便是設法阻止這類脂肪腫瘤的生長。脂肪瘤發育過程中會產生血管新生，從腫瘤延伸出的細微觸手狀根部持續尋找養分。因此，若餵食動物含有毒性成分的食物，這些物質將被脂肪瘤根部吸收，促使腫瘤持續增生。然而，從寵物飲食中剔除特定有毒食物，即可有效遏止脂肪腫塊的擴張。
GMO foods are especially good fuel for lipomas and can trigger the aggressive growth of these tumors, so try to make your pet’s diet GMO-free if possible. If you choose to feed your dog, cat, or other animal grains, make sure the grains are non-GMO. If your pet has serious lipoma issues, keeping his or her diet completely grain-free may be ideal during the healing process. If you struggle financially and can only afford to feed your dog food that contains some unproductive ingredients, do not stress yourself out. I fully support you, and know you are doing the best you possibly can for your pet. However, if you have the financial means to provide your dog with GMO-free food, I would recommend making this dietary choice.
基因改造食品是脂肪瘤的絕佳養分來源，可能誘發這些腫瘤的惡性增生，因此請盡可能讓寵物的飲食遠離基因改造成分。若選擇餵食犬貓等動物穀物，務必確認為非基因改造產品。當寵物面臨嚴重脂肪瘤問題時，在療癒期間採取完全無穀物飲食可能是最佳方案。若您經濟拮据，只能負擔含部分低效成分的狗糧，請勿過度自責。我完全理解並支持您，深知您已為寵物竭盡所能。但若經濟條件允許，我仍建議選擇非基因改造食品作為飼養方案。
Adding a few different supplements to your pet’s daily routine can also help reduce his or her lipoma. Vitamin C, such as Ester-C, is a great choice for helping prevent and combat lipomas. Olive leaf is another amazing supplement to try. The lipoma draws up certain phytochemicals found in olive leaf which slow down and interfere with the growth of the fatty tumor. You may want to incorporate pau d’arco as well, another supplement that can help slow down a lipoma’s growth.
在寵物的日常飲食中添加幾種不同的營養補充品，也能幫助縮小牠的脂肪瘤。維生素C（例如酯化維生素C）是預防和對抗脂肪瘤的絕佳選擇。橄欖葉提取物是另一種值得嘗試的優質補充品。脂肪瘤會吸收橄欖葉中的特定植物化學物質，這些成分能減緩並干擾脂肪腫瘤的生長。您亦可考慮添加保哥果（pau d'arco）——另一種有助抑制脂肪瘤生長的補充劑。
Hot Spots
熱點/化膿性皮炎
If your dog, cat, rabbit, guinea pig, or other animal badly itch and bite their fur out in certain places, he or she may be suffering from hot spots. Typically the formation of hot spots is a reaction to something in the animal’s diet. Try switching your pet’s food to choices that may be better for them and be mindful that It may take six to eight weeks to notice changes. If you don’t notice any difference after this period of time, try changing your pet’s food a second time. Reassess after the next six to eight week period, and if you are still not seeing changes, try changing up his or her diet once again. Sometimes pets can grow fond of one food and not be very receptive to dietary changes, but if you are working to rid your pet of hot spots, switching up his or her food is the best course of action.
若您的狗、貓、兔子、天竺鼠或其他寵物出現嚴重搔癢並在特定部位咬掉毛髮，牠可能正遭受熱點問題困擾。通常熱點的形成是動物對飲食中某種成分的反應。請嘗試將寵物糧換成更適合牠們的選擇，並留意可能需要六至八週才能觀察到變化。若此後仍無改善，請嘗試第二次更換飼料。經過下一個六至八週觀察期後，若情況依舊未見好轉，建議再次調整飲食。有時寵物會對特定食物產生依賴性，對飲食變動反應冷淡，但若您致力於消除寵物的熱點問題，更換飼料仍是最佳解決方案。
Oftentimes, unhealthy food is contributing to the development of hot spots. A food may have fillers or other unproductive ingredients that play a part in creating this issue. Depending on your pet’s unique needs and health conditions, changing up his or her food, even if it is a very clean, healthy food, can help to break up the hot spot and fur loss cycle. Bringing vitamin C into your pet’s daily protocol can be incredibly beneficial as you work to heal this health issue. A high-quality supplement may not heal the hot spot reactions, but it can help expedite the healing of any wounds that form.
不健康的食物往往是導致熱點發生的元兇。某些飼料可能含有填充物或其他無益成分，這些物質正是引發問題的關鍵因素。根據寵物的獨特需求與健康狀況，即使更換為極其純淨健康的飼料，也能有效打破熱點與脫毛的惡性循環。在治療過程中，將維生素C納入寵物日常保健方案將帶來顯著效益。優質營養補充劑雖無法直接治癒熱點反應，但能加速傷口癒合進程。
UTIs & Teeth Issues
尿道感染與牙齒問題
Helping your cat, dog, or other animal heal from a UTI can be a challenging situation. Chronic UTIs can be especially painful for an animal. Building up your pet’s immune system with vitamin C is an essential preventative measure. Olive leaf is another powerful supplement to incorporate. Pau d’arco is not only great for UTI support, but also helps with any teeth problems your pet may be experiencing. Similarly, a tiny bit of propolis can be helpful for UTIs, teeth issues, and gum infections. Adding small amounts of fresh oregano and parsley into your pets food can also help with UTIs. The resource I mentioned earlier could be helpful for support with conditions such as UTIs also. You can check it out here.
協助貓咪、狗狗或其他動物康復尿道感染可能相當棘手。慢性尿道感染對動物而言尤其痛苦。透過維生素C強化寵物免疫系統是關鍵的預防措施，橄欖葉亦是值得納入的強力營養補充品。保哥果（Pau d'arco）不僅能有效輔助泌尿道感染治療，更能改善寵物牙齒問題。同樣地，少量蜂膠對泌尿道感染、牙齒問題及牙齦發炎皆具療效。在寵物食物中添加少量新鮮牛至與巴西里，亦有助於緩解泌尿道感染症狀。先前提及的資源對泌尿道感染等病症的輔助治療同樣有益，您也可以去以上 feinman 醫生網站上找到許多相關資訊。
Heart Problems
心臟問題
If your pet suffers from heart disease or vascular issues, it is critical you add coenzyme Q10 and vitamin C into his or her supplement protocol. These supplements offer wonderful baseline supports. From here, you can work with your holistic veterinarian to figure out what particular supplements your pet needs for his or her unique issue.
若您的寵物罹患心臟疾病或血管問題，務必將輔酶Q10與維生素C納入其營養補充方案。這些營養補充品能提供卓越的基礎支持。在此基礎上，您可與整體獸醫合作，針對寵物的特殊狀況釐清所需的特定營養補充品。

我如何照顧我的狗
Below are a few things I do to care for my dogs. Hopefully this information provides you with some new ideas and insight regardless of the kind of pet you own. If you want to implement some of these ideas, take the information to your vet and discuss it with him or her to see which new practices would be best for your animal.
以下是我照顧我家狗狗的一些方式。無論你擁有哪種寵物，這些信息都能為你提供一些新的想法。如果想實施其中的一些想法，請將這些信息告知你的獸醫，並與他或她討論，以了解哪種方法最適合你的寵物。
Raw Food
生食
I’ve fed raw meat, vegetables and fruits to every dog I’ve had since childhood. Over thirty years ago, this was considered reckless and dangerous, and if you told your veterinarian, neighbour, or a stranger what you were doing, there was the possibility that they would contact services to have your animal taken away. Fortunately, this particular diet, at one time considered highly unconventional, has grown immensely popular in recent years to the point where raw food and dehydrated raw food now line the fridges and shelves of pet stores, and almost all conventional and holistic vets praise this dietary choice as being a great option. Why was raw food for animals frowned upon decades ago? Ironically enough, for the same reason any raw fruits and vegetables were frowned upon even for humans many years ago. There was such a great amount of misinformation on these healing foods that they were often considered to be bad choices. We have come a long way since then, however there is still an enormous amount of misinformation about these foods today even though they are generally recognized to be healthy choices. You can read the Fruit Fear chapter in my book, Medical Medium, to understand part of this issue.
自幼年起，我飼養的每隻狗都以生肉、蔬菜和水果為食。三十多年前，這種做法被視為魯莽危險，若向獸醫、鄰居或陌生人透露此事，甚至可能招致相關機構介入，將你的寵物帶走。所幸這種曾被視為極度非主流的飲食方式，近年已蔚為風潮——寵物店冰箱與貨架上隨處可見生食與脫水生食產品，幾乎所有傳統獸醫與整體療法獸醫都讚譽此飲食選擇極具價值。數十年前為何生食飼養備受詬病？諷刺的是，原因竟與多年前人類生食蔬果遭人排斥如出一轍。當時關於這些療癒食物的錯誤資訊泛濫，導致它們常被視為不良選擇。儘管如今這些食物普遍被認可為健康選擇，但相關謬誤仍大量存在。欲深入理解此議題，可參閱我著作《醫療靈媒》中的〈水果恐懼〉章節。
My dogs have always had good results from eating raw, grass fed meat. Try your best to avoid factory farmed meat, and stick with high-quality, grass fed varieties whenever possible. You will likely find grass fed options at a number of places including health food stores and supermarkets. Instead of purchasing ground meat, opt for a whole, grass fed selection which typically contains less bacteria. Fortunately, dogs are able to handle a certain level of bacteria thanks to the unique acids in their stomachs.
我的狗食用生食草飼肉類始終成效良好。請盡量避免工廠化養殖的肉品，並在可能的情況下堅持選擇高品質的草飼品種。您可在多家場所購得草飼選項，包括健康食品店與超市。與其購買絞肉，不如選擇整塊草飼肉品，此類產品通常含菌量較低。值得慶幸的是，犬隻因胃部獨特的酸性環境，能承受一定程度的細菌。
In various Medical Medium resources including my first book, Medical Medium, I’ve mentioned the seven acids that make up your stomach's hydrochloric acid. This blend is unique to humans. Dogs have their own blend, which is made up of twenty acids, and cats have a similar combination. Medical science and medical research have yet to discover the truth about our stomach’s hydrochloric acid or the truth about the hydrochloric acid found in our carnivorous canine and feline friends.
在《醫療媒介》系列資源中，包括我的首部著作《醫療媒介》，我曾提及構成人類胃部鹽酸的七種酸類。這種混合物是人類獨有的。狗類擁有由二十種酸類組成的專屬混合物，而貓科動物則具有相似的酸類組合。醫學科學與醫學研究至今仍未能揭開人類胃部鹽酸的真相，亦未能解開肉食性犬科與貓科夥伴體內鹽酸的奧秘。
If your pet is a carnivore, he or she may really enjoy and benefit from raw meaty bones. These are constant staples for my dogs. Marrow bones, which are loaded with minerals that are ideal for dogs, cats, and other carnivorous pets, are particularly incredible. The mineral composition inside these bones can transform the health of your dog, cat or other carnivorous pet. You can always consult your vet if you wish to feed your pets raw meaty bones. It’s important to never feed your pet cooked bones because they can splinter and be hazardous to your animal and can’t be digested.
若您的寵物屬於肉食性動物，牠們可能非常享受生肉骨頭並從中獲益。這些骨頭是我家狗狗的日常主食。骨髓骨尤其出色，富含對犬貓及其他肉食性寵物極為理想的礦物質。這些骨頭內的礦物質成分能徹底改變您狗狗、貓咪或其他肉食性寵物的健康狀態。若想餵食寵物生肉骨，建議隨時諮詢獸醫師。切記絕不能餵食寵物煮熟的骨頭，因為煮熟的骨頭容易碎裂，不僅對動物構成危險，更無法被消化吸收。
If you’ve always fed your pet cooked meat and veggies, and have never encountered food-related health issues, you can definitely continue providing your pet with a cooked diet, with the exception of cooked bones. Sweet potatoes can be an especially great cooked vegetable option. If health issues do arise and you want to try out a new diet, bringing in some raw food might be beneficial.
若您一直以來都餵養寵物熟肉與蔬菜，且從未遇到與飲食相關的健康問題，那麼您當然可以繼續提供寵物熟食飲食，唯獨需避免餵食熟骨頭。地瓜可說是熟食蔬菜中的絕佳選擇。若寵物確實出現健康問題，而您想嘗試新飲食方案時，適量引入生食可能有所助益。
At present, there are numerous, high-quality raw food sources to choose from. The Honest Kitchen company sells raw, dehydrated food for cats and dogs. For these meals, you can just add a little water and have a tasty, wholesome dish for your dog or cat in no time. You can find their cat food here and dog food here and browse through their different products. Orijen is another great company that offers an excellent dry food option for cats and kittens and also for dogs. If you're looking for some fun, tasty treats for your dog, check out the coconut-based, grain-free treats and biscuits by K9 Granola Factory.
目前市面上有多種優質生食原料可供選擇。誠實廚房公司專售貓狗專用生食脫水食品，只需添加少量清水，即可快速為您的愛犬或愛貓烹製出美味又營養的餐點。您可在此處選購貓糧，此處選購狗糧，並瀏覽其各類產品。Orijen 是另一家優質品牌，提供卓越的貓糧（含幼貓專用）及狗糧乾糧選擇。若想為愛犬添購趣味美味的零食，不妨試試 K9 Granola Factory 推出的椰子基底無穀零食與餅乾。

Homemade Meals
自製餐點
In addition to the raw meat, I like to give my dogs homemade meals as well. Around lunchtime, I like to make my dogs a mash by throwing an apple and two celery sticks into the food processor for each dog. I will often add a little barley grass juice extract powder and a little B-12 with methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin as well. This apple celery mash is just one example of the lunches I like to whip up for my dogs.
除了生肉之外，我也喜歡給我的狗們自製餐點。每到午餐時分，我會為每隻狗準備一份蘋果芹菜泥：將一個蘋果和兩根芹菜棒放入食物調理機攪打。通常還會添加少許大麥草汁萃取粉，以及含有甲鈷胺和腺苷鈷胺的維生素B12。這道蘋果芹菜泥只是我為愛犬快速烹調的午餐之一。
I try to incorporate wild blueberries into my dogs’ diet every single day, and often grind up a pint of defrosted frozen wild blueberries in their lunchtime mash. If you are looking for another way to protect your pet’s immune system, sprinkle a touch of flaxseed meal or chia seed meal into your dog’s food as well. Make sure not to give your animal too much of either because he or she may experience some bloating.
我每天都會在狗狗的飲食中加入野生藍莓，常在午餐的泥狀食物中攪拌半品脫解凍的冷凍野生藍莓。若想為寵物的免疫系統增添保護，也可在狗糧中撒入少許亞麻籽粉或奇亞籽粉。請注意兩者皆不宜過量，否則可能導致寵物腹脹不適。
Around dinnertime, I’ll give my dogs larger-sized, raw, meaty, marrow bones. I’ll let them chew on the bones a bit, rip off some meat, and lick out some of the marrow. After that, I’ll push the rest of the marrow out of the bone with my thumb and give it to them. I try to make sure that they don’t crunch or chew too much of the bone because it could be problematic if they were to accidentally swallow a large piece. Keeping an eye on them is important.
晚餐時分，我會給狗狗們較大的生肉骨頭，讓牠們啃咬骨頭、撕下肉塊、舔食骨髓。之後我會用拇指將剩餘骨髓擠出骨頭給牠們享用。我盡量避免牠們過度咀嚼或啃咬骨頭，因為若不小心吞下大塊骨頭可能引發問題。密切留意牠們的狀況至關重要。
Bringing in Fruit
引入水果
Fruit is not only incredibly beneficial for your health, but can transform your pet’s health as well. When my dogs were puppies, I taught them to eat small pieces of banana. Whether you have a puppy or a full grown dog, try giving your pooch a few different pieces of fruit, such as bananas, papaya, and berries, whenever you can. Fruit can help support your pet’s nervous system, help prevent and discontinue the growth of lipomas, and assist in the prevention and reversal of cancers. Bring in raspberries, blackberries, bananas, wild blueberries, papaya, and any other fruits you think your dog or pet might like. Apples and pears are great fruity additions for an animal’s diet. The antioxidants found in fruits will help support an animal’s immune system in fighting off whatever issues may arise. If your animal is battling cancer, bringing in fruit, alongside whatever treatment route you and your veterinarian choose to go, will give your pet a better chance at beating the disease. Just a little fruit each day can do wonders for your pet’s health!
水果不僅對您的健康極具益處，更能改善寵物的健康狀態。當我的狗狗還是幼犬時，我便教牠們食用小塊香蕉。無論您飼養的是幼犬或成年犬，請盡可能嘗試讓愛犬品嚐多種水果，例如香蕉、木瓜和莓果類。水果能強化寵物的神經系統，有助預防及抑制脂肪瘤生長，更能協助預防與逆轉癌症。不妨提供覆盆子、黑莓、香蕉、野生藍莓、木瓜，以及任何您認為愛犬或寵物可能喜愛的果品。蘋果與梨子更是動物飲食中絕佳的果味補充。水果所含的抗氧化劑將強化動物免疫系統，協助對抗可能出現的健康問題。若您的寵物正與癌症抗爭，無論您與獸醫選擇何種治療途徑，補充水果都能為寵物增加戰勝病魔的機會。每日少量水果，對寵物健康便能發揮奇效！
Incorporating Veggies
添加蔬菜
My dogs not only eat fruit, but I also supplement their diet with veggies as well. My dogs love to munch on celery and each of them eat around four to five sticks per day. I’ll give them a few veggies after their morning meal of grass-fed beef and later in the afternoon after they devour their marrow bones. Cucumber is another favorite snack of theirs. Try introducing celery and cucumber slices to your pet.
我的狗狗不僅吃水果，我還會用蔬菜來補充牠們的飲食。牠們特別喜歡啃食西洋芹，每隻每天大約能吃掉四到五根。我會在牠們吃完晨間的草飼牛肉後，以及午後啃完骨髓骨後，再給牠們幾片蔬菜。小黃瓜也是牠們最愛的零食之一。不妨試著給你的寵物餵食西芹片和小黃瓜片。
It’s alright for your dog or cat to eat a little grass if they go outside, as long as you don’t spray your yard with dangerous chemicals or live in a community that sprays. You may even want to grow a wheat grass bed indoors for your cat. Sometimes when dogs and cats feel sick or unwell, they try to eat a large quantity of grass in an attempt to make themselves throw up, but this can actually create a dangerous blockage in your pet’s intestinal tract. Try to prevent too much outside grass consumption. Let your vet know if your pet is overeating grass outside or seek support online with a resources like this one.
只要您沒有在院子噴灑危險化學藥劑，或居住在會噴灑藥劑的社區，讓您的貓狗外出時吃些草是無妨的。您甚至可以考慮在室內為貓咪種植一片小麥草床。當貓狗感到不適或生病時，有時會大量啃食草葉試圖催吐，但這反而可能在寵物腸道形成危險的阻塞。請盡量避免牠們過量攝取戶外草葉。若發現寵物過度啃食草葉，請告知獸醫，或透過此類線上資源尋求協助。
An amazing way to bring greens into your animal’s life is to add a little barley grass juice extract powder or wheatgrass juice extract powder into their food. Vimergy has the highest-quality products that both you and your pet can use.
讓寵物的生活中充滿綠色植物的妙招之一，就是在食物中添加少量大麥草汁萃取粉或小麥草汁萃取粉。 Vimergy 擁有最高品質的產品，您和您的寵物都可以使用。
Grains & Pets
穀物與寵物
If your only choice is between low-quality, GMO dog food containing fillers, byproducts, and chemicals and homemade dog food that contains grains, I would recommend opting for the homemade, grain-containing dog food. You could combine cooked brown rice with a little bit of sweet potato, winter squash, broccoli, or celery and make a meal that is significantly better than a dish containing store bought GMO food. However, if you have the option to provide your dog or other animal with grain-free meal options, that would be a great direction to go. I like keeping my dog’s diet grain-free, but there are some types of animals that are dependent on grains and it is important to keep your unique pet in mind when creating his or her diet plan.
如果您只能在含有填充劑、副產品和化學物質的低品質基因改造狗糧和含有穀物的自製狗糧之間做出選擇，我建議您選擇自製的含穀物狗糧。您可以將煮熟的糙米與少量紅薯、冬南瓜、綠花椰菜或西洋芹混合，製作一頓比商店購買的基因改造食品更美味的餐點。但是，如果您可以選擇為您的狗或其他動物提供無穀物膳食，那將是一個不錯的選擇。我喜歡讓我的狗狗保持無穀物飲食，但有些動物對穀物有依賴性，因此在製定您的寵物飲食計劃時，請務必考慮到它的獨特性。
Cats, Dogs & Veganism
貓狗與純素
Some people feed their dogs a vegan diet. Even some cat owners feed their felines vegan. This type of diet can be beneficial short-term if you are trying to reverse an illness or disease in your dog or cat, but alongside the vegan diet it is critical that you bring in wild salmon oil. Because cats and dogs are carnivores they cannot thrive on a regular vegan diet. If you want to keep them on a vegan diet, incorporating wild salmon oil into their daily protocol is essential. You can find the brand of wild salmon oil I recommend, along with a host of other products, on the Medical Medium page of preferred pet products. Unlike cats and dogs, humans aren’t carnivores and are able to eat a vegan diet if they choose. That being said, humans are able to eat animal protein if they want, and I support whatever diet works best for you and your health. I’m not the biggest fan of an extremely high protein diet because a diet like that does not leave much room for healing fresh fruits and veggies, but some people feel okay keeping a bit of high-quality meat in their diet alongside an abundance of fresh fruits, leafy greens, and vegetables..
有些人會給狗狗餵食純素飲食。甚至有些貓主人也會餵貓咪餵食純素飲食。如果您想治癒貓狗的疾病，這種飲食方式在短期內可能有益，但除了純素飲食之外，補充野生鮭魚油也至關重要。由於貓狗是肉食動物，它們無法依靠常規的純素飲食茁壯成長。如果您想讓它們保持純素飲食，將野生鮭魚油納入它們的日常飲食中至關重要。您可以在「醫療媒介」的寵物推薦產品頁面上找到我推薦的野生鮭魚油品牌以及許多其他產品。與貓狗不同，人類不是肉食動物，如果願意，也可以選擇純素飲食。話雖如此，人類也可以根據需要攝取動物蛋白，我支持任何對您和您的健康最有利的飲食。我並不是高蛋白飲食的忠實粉絲，因為這樣的飲食沒有給新鮮水果和蔬菜留下太多的空間，但有些人覺得在飲食中保留一些高品質的肉類以及大量的新鮮水果、綠葉蔬菜和蔬菜是可以的。
Deficiencies & Supportive Supplements
營養缺乏症與補充
Addressing any deficiencies your pet may have is essential. Pet Health+™ by Ambaya Gold is a great multivitamin for helping reduce deficiencies. SeaMeal™, a kelp-based supplement by Solid Gold is another good option for providing your pet with some of the essential vitamins and minerals he or she needs. If your pet is suffering from deficiencies, it is vital you sprinkle a little bit of barley grass juice extract powder into his or her daily meals as well. I give my dogs the B-12 with methylcobalamin and adenosylcobalamin which you can find on the Medical Medium preferred supplements page, and I’ve noticed a positive difference in their health. Others have noticed beneficial shifts in their pet’s health after incorporating B-12. B-12 is especially important if your pet is suffering from neurological or nervous system problems, but it can be a supportive supplement for virtually any ailment. You do not have to give your pet two dropper fulls or even one dropper full— just a few drops can help. If your dog or cat is larger in size, a couple more drops may be beneficial, but a generous amount is not necessary to see positive changes. Vitamin C, which is mentioned numerous times throughout this article, is a powerful supplement that can help support a number of health problems including neurological and central nervous system issues.
解決寵物可能存在的任何營養缺乏問題至關重要。 Ambaya Gold 的 Pet Health+™ 是一款出色的複合維生素，有助於減少營養缺乏。 Solid Gold 的 SeaMeal™ 是一款以海藻為基礎的補充劑，也是為您的寵物提供必需維生素和礦物質的理想選擇。如果您的寵物有營養缺乏症，請務必在它的日常飲食中添加少量大麥草汁萃取粉。我給我的狗餵食含有甲鈷胺和腺苷鈷胺的 B-12，您可以在 Medical Medium 的首選補充劑頁面上找到這些產品，我注意到它們的健康狀況有了顯著改善。其他人也注意到，在添加 B-12 後，寵物的健康狀況得到了有益的改善。如果您的寵物患有神經系統疾病或神經系統疾病，B-12 尤其重要，但它幾乎可以作為任何疾病的補充。您無需給寵物滴滿兩滴甚至一滴——只需幾滴即可。如果您的貓狗體型較大，多滴幾滴可能會有幫助，但無需大量服用即可看到積極的變化。維生素C在本文中多次提及，它是一種強效補充劑，可以幫助緩解多種健康問題，包括神經系統和中樞神經系統問題。
A drop or two of high-quality zinc can be helpful for animals, and can be especially beneficial for thyroid disease in dogs, cats, and other animals. Thyroid disease found in animals is very similar to thyroid disease found in humans. I share the true, unknown cause of Hashimoto’s disease, which is Epstein-Barr virus, with those suffering in my first book Medical Medium. Plus, my book Thyroid Healing goes into enormous detail on the undiscovered truths about thyroid disease and other thyroid conditions. This virus can get into the thyroid and cause major health issues. This information was unknown until I brought it to light, and now you are learning undiscovered information about the thyroid disease found in pets as well. The virus that gets into the thyroid of a cat, dog, or other animal is a mutated strain that falls within the Epstein-Barr family. Fortunately certain foods and supplements, such as zinc and vitamin C can help.
一兩滴優質鋅對動物有益，尤其對狗、貓和其他動物的甲狀腺疾病有益。動物的甲狀腺疾病與人類的甲狀腺疾病非常相似。在我的處女作《醫學靈媒》中，我與患者分享了橋本甲狀腺炎的真正未知病因—愛潑斯坦-巴爾病毒。此外，我的著作《甲狀腺療癒》詳細揭示了甲狀腺疾病和其他甲狀腺疾病的未發現真相。這種病毒會進入甲狀腺並導致嚴重的健康問題。在我揭露之前，這些資訊並不為人所知，現在，您將了解到寵物身上也存在的甲狀腺疾病的未發現資訊。進入貓、狗或其他動物甲狀腺的病毒是愛潑斯坦-巴爾病毒家族的突變株。幸運的是，某些食物和補充劑，例如鋅和維生素C，可以有所幫助。
Although some people feel improvements using glucosamine and chondroitin, I’ve never seen it offer abundant support for serious joint and arthritis problems in humans. However, these supplements can actually be highly supportive in animals. Similarly, MSM seems to work even more effectively for pets than it does for humans. The brand Rescue Remedy has an alcohol-free tincture that is great for helping to keep pets calm and cool. Seeking out a great skin salvemay also be beneficial for some animals.
雖然有些人覺得使用葡萄糖胺和軟骨素後症狀有所改善，但我從未見過它們對人類嚴重的關節和關節炎問題有顯著的療效。然而，這些補充劑實際上對動物有很強的輔助作用。同樣，MSM 對寵物的效果似乎比對人類更有效。 Rescue Remedy 品牌有一款不含酒精的酊劑，非常適合幫助寵物保持鎮靜和涼爽。尋找一款有效的皮膚藥膏對某些動物也可能有益。
If you’re on the hunt for the right kind of high quality supplements that matter and can make a great difference in your pet’s health, check out the Medical Medium page dedicated to preferred pet products. You may also want to look at the line of alcohol-free, veterinary herbal extracts by Hawaii Pharm, which contains some incredibly high-quality options. You can find these products on the preferred pet products page as well.
如果您正在尋找優質、有效且能夠顯著改善寵物健康的補充劑，請查看「醫療媒介」頁面，該頁面專門介紹寵物首選產品。您也可以考慮夏威夷製藥公司（Hawaii Pharm）的無酒精獸用草藥萃取物系列，其中包含一些品質極佳的產品。您也可以在「寵物首選產品」頁面上找到這些產品。
Foods to Avoid
需要避免的食物
There are a few foods that you should avoid giving to your dogs, cats, and other animals. If you have a dog, try to keep grapes away from him or her. There is a phytochemical found in grapes that is actually toxic to dogs. Your dog, cat or other animal should also avoid eating certain avocados. A regular Hass avocado is okay for pets to eat, but other varieties of avocados, such as those grown in the West Indies and the larger avocado varieties found in Florida are not safe for your pet. If you don’t want to mess with learning about the different avocado varieties, it may be best to avoid feeding avocados to your pet altogether. However, if you know a little about the different varieties and want to give your pet a bit of a regular Hass avocado that would be a safe treat. Do not feed your dogs or cats macadamia nuts. And, as many pet owners already know, keeping your dog or cat away from chocolate is critical. Chocolate is poisonous to cats and dogs. When giving your pets supplements, do not use tinctures that contain alcohol unless it’s all you have to work with. It is best to stick to alcohol-free brands for the health of your pet.
以下食物應避免餵食您的寵物狗、貓和其他動物。如果您養狗，請盡量不要讓它接觸葡萄。葡萄中含有一種對狗有毒的植物化學物質。您的寵物狗、貓或其他動物也應避免食用某些酪梨。普通的哈斯酪梨可以供寵物食用，但其他品種的酪梨，例如西印度群島種植的酪梨和佛羅裡達州種植的較大品種的酪梨，對您的寵物來說並不安全。如果您不想費心了解不同的酪梨品種，最好完全避免餵食酪梨。但是，如果您對不同品種有所了解，並且想給您的寵物餵食一些普通的哈斯牛油果，那也是一種安全的零食。不要給您的寵物狗或貓餵食澳洲堅果。而且，正如許多寵物主人已經知道的那樣，讓您的寵物狗或貓遠離巧克力至關重要。巧克力對貓狗都有毒。為寵物補充營養時，除非萬不得已，否則不要使用含酒精的酊劑。為了寵物的健康，最好堅持使用不含酒精的品牌。
