A sensible type, doctor, has this to say on Toxins and detoxifying

 

 

"I read nonsense about removing "toxins" all the time, but I have never seen any identification of what those "toxins" are supposed to be, much less any evidence that anything is removed by the recommended treatments, which include herbal remedies, diet regimens, bowel cleansers, massage, footbaths, electronic gadgets, you name it! Those "toxins" are as mythical as the Tooth Fairy. In fact, the Tooth Fairy makes more sense: I have some evidence for the Tooth Fairy, because, as a child, I saw the money under my pillow. I haven't seen a "toxin" yet.

The first ingredient on the label is methionine which is used in paracetamol overdose so unless your dogs have been in the drug cuboard it give it a miss. A 2005 study showed methionine restriction without energy restriction extends mouse lifespan so perhaps adding more might not be a good idea?

The body does it's own removal of waste products, this is a complex process done by different systems in different parts depending on the particular waste product, there isn't a one cure all. Stick to a good diet and sensible exercise and the rest will follow.

toxins? if you mean waste products created by the dog during normal day to day living, exercise etc then the liver kidneys etc will take care of them. if the dog is being worked super hard, them extra rest and plenty of good food and water will allow the body to do this more efficiently. if by toxins you mean stuff that bshouldnt be in the system, such as caused by illness or poisoning or injury then the vet is the place to go, not some supplement

i take your point fay, but in my opinion if a dog cant detox its own system then personally i would put my faith in a vet rather than some chemical i know little about. vets know far more about drugs and stuff than i do, and their use of these drugs is quite strictly governed by law. i am lucky enough to have a decent vet nearby who keeps running dogs himself, and i've known him long enough to trust him. i would say though that its worth searching out a good vet and sticking with them

Not one to argue with you Sandymere but i use this on my pigeon's and i can tell you it has a very positive effect both in performance and condition !!! in fact if i was restricted to one supplement for my birds then this would be the one id keep.
