Mushroom Supplements for Pets
We’ve been attending a lot of events this summer to meet folks face-to-face and understand their health journeys. It's an honor to listen to people speak so honestly about their health.
Occasionally, we also get a glimpse into non-human health journeys. People tell us their pets’ health conditions and ask us if they can give our mushroom extracts to them. We don't take these questions lightly. As part of our chosen family, our pets' health is very important to us. And we know your furry one is a part of your family too.
The good news is the answer is YES! In fact our products have already been used to treat different conditions in pets. We donated our Life Force mushroom master’s mix to a wolf sanctuary to heal a rescued wolf with an inflamed skin condition. And last summer a local Colorado couple adopted a stray dog that suffered from an inoperable tumor. They came to us for our potentTurkey Tail powder for help to shrink the tumor. Although we don’t have a specific product that states “Pets” on it, as some brands are doing, it isn’t really necessary. A pet will feel the benefits from a quality mushroom extract, as we would. Here is a quick overview of how different mushrooms can benefit pets.
