About Canine Allergies

Allergies are a common condition affecting canines. They are characterized by the body's response to an allergen and can be caused by a wide variety of internal or external stimuli. Allergic reactions can differ from one dog to another, even for the same allergen.

It is important to determine the cause of your dog's allergies in order to minimize ongoing exposure. Alongside finding the cause, herbal supplements can be used to help ease symptoms, support the histamine response, and strengthen the immune system.

What is Nettle-Eyebright Gold?

Nettle-Eyebright Gold is a combination of herbal ingredients plus vitamin C, formulated by our holistic veterinarians for canine allergies (allergic rhinitis or hay fever). Its two main herbs, Nettles and Eyebright, have been used extensively for natural support of seasonal allergies. Other herbs in this formula help support the immune system and the specific reactions experienced by dogs when airborne allergens affect them.

What is Nettle-Eyebright Gold used for?

Nettle-Eyebright Gold may help with occasional discomfort associated with seasonal allergies. It is recommended for intermittent use, as needed.

Allergic rhinitis (or hay fever), a condition commonly experienced by humans, also affects dogs in much the same way. Tissues in the nasal passages become inflamed and itchy. You may notice your dog rubbing his or her nose to gain relief. Watery, red eyes, sneezing, and excess nasal mucous are all common signs of allergic rhinitis. Springtime symptoms are usually caused by tree pollens, while weeds and other plants like grasses can be the culprit as the weather gets warmer in the summer and fall months.

Other substances can also elicit the same types of symptoms. Fungal spores and molds may be present indoors, particularly in damp areas like basements or garages. Dust or dust mites are common triggers and are found in carpets, bedding, window coverings, mattresses, and furniture covered with fabric. Sensitivities are not experienced the same way by every pet; rather, they are unique to each individual's immune system. It may be helpful to avoid having your dog in areas (outdoor or indoor) that seem to make their symptoms worse. An air purifier indoors can also be beneficial.

When pollens or other microscopic particles are inhaled by dogs with overly sensitive immune systems, a chain reaction occurs: A sensitized immune system will produce antibodies to combat the antigen (allergen), and these antibodies cause other chemicals to be produced in the body, called mediators. One common mediator is histamine. It is these chemical mediators that have an affect on the tissues, particularly of the nose, eyes, and respiratory tract.

Nettle-Eyebright Gold targets this response in four ways:

1. By providing natural antihistamines
2. By supporting overall health of the immune system
3. By supporting the comfort of the nasal passages and decreasing excess mucous production in the respiratory tract
4. By helping with inflammation that can cause discomfort

Nettle-Eyebright Gold is formulated with:

• Eyebright herb (Euphrasia officinale): Often used in remedies that affect the eyes, nose, and throat, Eyebright promotes normal mucous production and may be helpful for sneezing, watery eyes, and irritated throat.
• Yerba Santa leaf (Eriodictyon californicum): The leaf of Yerba Santa elicits its action specifically within the respiratory system to support normal mucous production in the lungs. It also promotes expectoration and thus normal, clear airways and more comfortable breathing.
• Turmeric rhizome (Curcuma longa): Possesses many useful applications in various areas of the body. In this formula, its action is upon the underlying, triggered immune reaction to help maintain a normal response in sensitive dogs.
• Ambrosia leaf (Ambrosia artemisiifolia): Known for its astringency, Ambrosia helps to tone (tighten) mucous membranes and lessen secretions, especially in the nasal cavity.
• Lemon Balm herb (Melissa officinalis): This fragrant herb supports the immune system and the body's normal reaction to histamine. It is also mildly relaxing.
• Olive leaf (Olea europaea): The leaves of the Olive tree assist overall normal, healthy immunity. They are also mildly astringent.
