Several of my other rehab animals have benefit-
ed from an herbal mixture like this. Most of the
herbs are from the regions of Peru and I believe
that is why they have worked so well to comple-
ment the veterinarian’s care. There are hundreds
of herbs and the ones I use depend on each
animal’s particular need.
In Annie’s herbal mixture, I added essences,
vitamin/mineral mix, enzymes, probiotics, and
colloidal silver.
I gave this mixture orally once a day, every
other day, for the first week to let her system
get used to it. The second week, I gave the
mixture every day and would weigh her daily
to record the results. She started to gain a few
pounds! After four days, Annie weighed 79.7
pounds – a 1.9 pound gain which was at least
a step in the right direction.
Here is Annie’s herbal mixture:
Powdered herbs:
From the regions of Peru.
Digestive Essence:
Essences are used for healing
and balancing the energetic and emotional
patterns related to the specific body systems.
(This was a major essence for Annie’s condition.)
Colloidal Silver liquid:
A natural antibiotic.
(I added this only the first week.)
Probiotics:
Beneficial bacteria (can use plain
yogurt or Dyna-Pro liquid.)
Animal Restore Essence:
To help restore vitality
during periods of recuperation. Can help restore
and heal the spirit. (This was a very important
essence for Annie.)
Alpaca Essence:
Helps them remain grounded,
calm, and relaxed. Good for animals being
transported or removed from their normal
circumstances.
Stress Pack:
Full of B vitamins, minerals,
probiotics, electrolytes, and immune support
ingredients. (I used this once or twice a week
in the mixture).
Enzymes:
To help her body absorb her
nutrients, I used Opti-zyme every other day
in the mixture. Sometimes I added it to the
moistened beet pulp.
For the chronic diarrhea:
I started with Diarrex, which is a homeopathic
remedy blend for diarrhea. I gave this remedy
to Annie twice a day the first two days. Diarrex
usually works for diarrhea, but it did not work for
Annie. I knew then I would have to determine the
appropriate homeopathic remedy for this case if
I was going to get rid of that chronic diarrhea.

After three months of treatment, Annie was feeling better, gaining weight,
and ready to smile for the camera.
