Natural Approaches to Manage Epilepsy & Seizures In Dogs
Hey Reader,
Although we sincerely hope you never have to experience this, the prevalence of epilepsy in dogs is on the rise.
The silver lining is that there are natural methods available for managing epilepsy and seizures in dogs.
What's even better?
These solutions may also serve as preventative measures in some instances, giving you peace of mind and potentially safeguarding your furry friend from ever having to endure such challenges.
Dietary Adjustments:
High-carb diets can contribute to seizures due to inflammation. A lower carb diet, such as a ketogenic or raw food diet, may benefit dogs with epilepsy.
By reducing carbohydrate intake, you can lower inflammation, potentially reducing seizure frequency and severity.
Raw Food Diet:
Rich in protein, a raw food diet can help create a lower pH in the urine, supporting overall urinary health and preventing crystal formation.
CBD Oil:
CBD oil can be an effective treatment for some dogs with epilepsy, but consult your veterinarian before introducing it, as it may interact with other medications.
Your vet can help determine the appropriate dosage and monitor your dog's response to treatment.
Chinese Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture:
Chinese herbal medicine can address the underlying imbalances causing seizures in individual dogs.
By working with a certified herbalist, you can develop a customized herbal treatment plan tailored to your dog's specific needs.
Acupuncture and gold bead implants in specific points may help reduce seizure frequency in some cases.
Dr. Katie Woodley and Dr. Odette Suter talked about these solutions in a recent question they were asked. You can watch the video below or continue reading about it here.
Before implementing new treatments, always consult your veterinarian to ensure the best possible care for your furry friend.
These natural approaches have the potential to improve your dog's quality of life, allowing them to live more comfortably despite their condition.
