What is Dandelion Root?

Most of us are familiar with this herb as a weed in the garden, but its use in recorded traditional medicine dates back to the 7th century. Both the leaf and the root are used, although their properties are quite different from each other.

Dandelion root properties include:

• Liver support
• Digestion (appetite, bile secretion, gas, indigestion)
• Cardiovascular support (supporting the liver is important in heart disease)
• Blood sugar maintenance
• Immune support

Healthy liver: Supporting your dog's liver can go a long way in contributing to a long and healthy life, even if your dog is not showing signs of liver problems.

The liver performs dozens of different functions in the body, yet liver disease (including cirrhosis) is one of the most common health problems in older canines. It can damage all functions of the dog’s liver, with very harmful health effects.

Even canines without liver disease may need support to metabolize and excrete prescription medications and environmental chemicals which are often damaging to the liver. Dogs tend to come into contact with more harmful chemicals and pesticide residues than humans.

Good digestion: Dandelion root has been used extensively as a cholagogue, meaning that it helps support normal bile flow during digestion. This helps the breakdown and assimilation of foods. Dandelion root supports the production of liver enzymes that metabolize toxins in the body so they can be excreted. It also supports the gut by providing inulin. Inulin is a prebiotic that helps maintain healthy gut flora, essential for good digestion and the immune system. Dandelion root is one of the world's best digestive "tonics."

Healthy heart: Some of the chemical constituents of Dandelion root help maintain normal blood pressure and good circulation. It is also high in several minerals that contribute to a good electrolyte balance. A well-functioning liver is important for dogs with heart disease.

Blood sugar: Dandelion root has also been studied for its ability to support normal, healthy insulin levels. The addition of Dandelion root to your dog's health regime is a great way to help maintain stable blood sugar levels.

Pet Wellbeing Dandelion Root is glycerin-based and safe for dogs. Never give an alcohol-based product to your dog.

Healthy Nutrition Tip for Your Dog's Liver & Digestion:

Processed foods stress your dog’s liver as it works to detoxify the preservatives and other additives many commercial foods contain, including artificial flavors and colors. It's a good idea to check the quality of the meat that goes into the making of your dog's food. Avoid grains and focus on healthy proteins from free-range, grass-fed animals. Green foods will help detoxify your canine's liver, such as Pet Wellbeing SPARK Daily Nutritional Supplement. Expect your dog’s moods to be lifted as well! SPARK is a veterinarian-formulated, daily nutritional supplement for dogs of all ages.
