can coconut oil benefit my pet?

Considering the ongoing buzz about how wonderful coconut oil is, I'm sure many of us have incorporated it into our daily routines, whether in the kitchen or the shower. Our family has been cooking with coconut oil for a couple of years. We use it on our skin as a moisturizer, and I use it as a natural makeup remover. I've even tried oil pulling. It may seem like I live and breathe coconut oil, but I've only just scratched the surface. There are hundreds of uses for the stuff.

Did you know that coconut oil is also great for your pets?

Every part of the coconut is nutritious, but the oil is thought to be most so. Most pets enjoy the taste when mixed with their food, and it can also be used topically.

What are some of the benefits?

• antioxidant

• aids in absorption of vitamins and minerals

• antifungal

• supports skin and fur health

• supports healthy digestion

• immune support

• improves metabolic function

• fats support a healthy brain

• supports bone health

• anti-inflammatory, reducing arthritis

• helps reduce allergic reactions

• thyroid support

• parasite prevention

• weight management

• first aid: infections, wounds and rashes heal faster

• deodorizer 

• moisturizer

• thought to be a preventative against some cancers

There's really no downside.

So what's the deal? Doggington Post explains:

When all forms of diet remedies have failed, then it is time to try out this miracle natural medicine for your (pet). Virgin coconut oil means that it is unrefined, and it can be used for both dogs and humans. Lauric acid, a medium chain fatty acid, can help prevent bacterial and viral infections. This is most commonly found in a mother's milk and builds the immune system. 

Dogs Naturally Magazine gets down to the nitty-gritty to help us understand why something so simple can offer so many benefits:

Coconut oil consists of more than 90% saturated fats, with traces of few unsaturated fatty acids, such as monounsaturated fatty acids and polyunsaturated fatty acids. Most of the saturated fats in coconut oil are Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs). The main component (more than 40%) of MCTs is auric acid, followed by caprice acid, caprylic acid, merits acid and palmitic. Coconut oil also contains about 2% linoleum acid (polyunsaturated fatty acids) and about 6% oleic acid (monounsaturated fatty acids).

Most of the coconut oil benefits come from the MCTs. For example, the auric acid in coconut oil has antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-fungal properties. Caprice and caprylic acid have similar properties and are best known for their anti-fungal effects.

In addition, MCTs are efficiently metabolized to provide an immediate source of fuel and energy, enhancing athletic performance and aiding weight loss. In dogs, the MCTs in coconut oil balance the thyroid, helping overweight dogs lose weight and helping sedentary dogs feel energetic.

How much should I give my pet?

Topically, coconut oil can be used liberally and as needed. When given internally, the standard recommended dose is one teaspoon of coconut oil per ten pounds of pet. As with any new food or supplement, it's best to start slowly and work up to the full dose over a period of about a month. 

Have you used coconut oil topically or as a supplement for your pet? How about for yourself?

the importance of growth hormone to pets and a #somapet #couponcode

The term "growth hormone" may have a negative connotation since the press it typically gets is in the form of athletes using it illegally in the synthetic variety. The natural growth hormone our pets produce (as all mammals do) begins to decline after maturity and continues to decrease as our pets age. Growth Hormone is important early in life, but also for cellular maintenance as mammals grow older. SomaPet is a supplement that can support cellular maintenance by stimulating the body to naturally produce growth hormone.

It is thought that the artificial diets we have fed our pets since the 1930's have had detrimental effects on our pets. Most pet parents still feed their pets a highly-processed diet, so the basic, natural nutrients needed to keep our pets' health at an optimum are missing and need to be replaced. Even pets who are served a high-quality kibble or raw diet suffer from depleted nutrients in their food due to the way we grow and raise our food.

The result of this nutrient absence is that veterinarians are seeing the number of domesticated animals who suffer from the degenerative signs of aging increase.

SomaPet can help replace these lost nutrients an help restore our pets' health and improve their quality of life. 

How is this possible?

SomaPet outlines how it works:

SomaPet is a specific combination of amino acids formulated to optimize the health of your pet. This specific combination, when taken orally, is designed to support the release of Growth Hormone from the pituitary, which assists in cell repair and regeneration. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein and constitute an essential part of an animals' diet. SomaPet amino acids provide your pet with vital supplementation. This ensures an appropriate balance of amino acids particularly beneficial for animals over three years old exhibiting signs of aging.

So what specific benefits can SomaPet offer?

• improved immune function

• increased healing

• improved nervous function

• promoted cellular energy

• strengthened collagen and bone

• minimized exercise damage

I have been supplementing N.A.S.H.A.'s diet with SomaPet for about four months, now, and have witnessed results I never thought possible for our little nine-year-old pooch. So much so, that I will be sure she takes SomaPet for the rest of her life. She has increased energy, and her coat and skin are healthier than ever. The cool thing is, I noticed these results within the first few days! Things just keep getting better.

What I love most about SomaPet is that it's all natural and made from the highest-quality 100% organic ingredients. There is no sugar, gluten, or fat, and it is completely free of preservatives, fillers, additives, and artificial coloring. And it's vegan! All I have to do is sprinkle a scoop on her food each evening, and she's good to go.

we're partnering with #SomaPet to bring you health and deals

This past summer, we were introduced to a natural pet supplement called SomaPet. I couldn't believe the results we saw in N.A.S.H.A. I mean, I usually really love the products we review, but SomaPet was over-the-top can't-live-without-it awesome. I knew we'd continue N.A.S.H.A. on it. You can read our full review here.

In a nutshell, it's everything good with nothing bad. It comes in powder form and contains only natural, 100% organic ingredients. It is sugar free, gluten free, and fat free, and contains no preservatives, additives, fillers, or artificial coloring. And it's vegan. It's recommended for dogs and cats over three years of age.

So what does it do, you ask?

SomaPet describes it:

SomaPet is a proprietary combination of organic, pure free-form crystalline amino acids that help jumpstart your pet's natural processes of cell repair and regeneration.

The ultimate dietary supplement, SomaPet consists of a synergistic combination of free form L-amino acids designed to assist:

• strengthens collagen and bones

• improves immune system

• renews vitality

• helps reduce body fat

• healthier skin and coat

• promotes cellular energy

• increases healing

When we first reviewed SomaPet, N.A.S.H.A. had been taking it for just two weeks, and I already noticed a remarkable improvement in her coat and energy level. Now that she's been taking it for three months, we see a consistent improvement in her energy level. She's jumping and playing more, and she's more spry. It used to take her a few attempts to hop onto our high bed, but now she makes it on the first try, every time. She runs around the back yard more, and she asks the kids to play more often. (Yes, she asks them by tossing them one of her toys.) And her coat? Let's just say José Eber would swoon. 

It makes me feel great to give my pooch something that helps her so much. I would highly recommend SomaPet to anyone with an adult dog or cat. No joke. 

As you can imagine, I was thrilled when SomaPet contacted me about partnering to bring this fantastic supplement to Well Minded readers at a discount. SomaLife, the company that makes SomaPet, began by offering supplements for humans. After I've seen what their product has done for my dog, I'm anxious to try the human variety, and I'll be sure to let you know what I think.
