Neurologic Support Pathway for Dogs - Back to Balance

Nzymes Neurological Support Pathway for Dogs

The Nzymes Neurological Support Pathway for Dogs is designed to help you get off to a good start for your pet who is struggling with such issues. This page is to provide guidance for using Nzymes products; to make recommendations on better food/snack choices; and to help you find natural alternatives for flea/tick/parasite control. 

The Goal

Our Goal is to help you achieve the success you are looking for. Much of that will have to do with the products. Some of that will have to do with the other recommendations we are making in this program. And some of that will come down to the individual animal. By following these protocols, many pets have returned robust health, and improved daily functioning. Even though these recommendations are common-sense based, and very straight forward, nothing carries a 100% certainty.

Seizure Causes

Seizures in dogs can come from a variety of causes. Most are considered idiopathic, in other words, they just happen. Some however, spawn from a genetic factor, a birth defect, or a tumor. Still others may occur due to trauma - an accident or injury. Even for these very difficult cases, this system stands a reasonable chance to make a positive impact in the life of the pet.

Toxins & Seizures

We feel the largest contributors to seizures in dogs is due to Toxic Build-up. The FOCUS of this program is to take every possible step to reduce the toxic load on the pet. “Idiopathic” may be the label, the there is always a REASON for the seizures to occur with the dog. This avenue is not often explored by vets, as they are more apt to prescribe an anti-convulsant.

Getting Started with Nzymes

The key to understanding the Nzymes products is simple. They are providing rich elements to the diet that your pet cannot get from his food alone. The Live-Food Nutrition in our Antioxidant Treats enable your pet to manufacture a whole series of enzymes. It is those enzymes that flush toxins from the cells. The Tracite Minerals are involved in cellular replication and regeneration. They also supply bio-electric energy for the body’s electrical system. Combined, they provide dynamic support for neurological health.

The purpose of this special bundle is to provide ultimate support for neurological issues. It combines 2 bottles of our Antioxidant Treats and a bottle of our Tracite Minerals.

How to Use Your Nzymes Products for Best Results

When you are using the Back to Balance kit for Dogs, consistency is a key to success. Be sure to give the products to your pet every day as directed. Recommended usages are provided on the packaging. In the case of the Antioxidant Treats, we generally recommend doubling the product usage for the first two weeks. This is to get the product going in your dog more quickly.
Note: If your dog has a sensitive stomach, then you may need to introduce the products more slowly to avoid vomiting or diarrhea. In time, you can slowly increase to normal daily amounts.

Avoiding Problem Foods and Snacks

When it comes to seizure/neurologic activity in dogs, some of the key contributing factors can be the ingredients found in main-line pet foods and snacks. Yet customer feedback has demonstrated that vets rarely explore this avenue or suggest that there is any connection between particular foods/snacks and the condition. This could be due to their training being more focused on medications and procedures than on nutrition.

Food Matters - More than Most People Realize

The single most important thing going into your dog every single day is their food. And for a dog facing a neurological challenge, food quality isn't optional — it's critical.

Mainstream commercial pet foods are commonly treated with preservatives, artificial colors, and artificial flavors. They contain byproducts, high-starch carbohydrates, and low-quality vitamins and minerals. Feed animals are often raised with antibiotics and growth hormones. Farmed salmon are raised in conditions that compromise their nutritional integrity. Wheat flour and wheat gluten — common pet food ingredients — are significant concerns for dogs with seizure activity. And given the scale of commercial pet food production in this country, the likelihood of Non-GMO or glyphosate-free sourcing is low.

What you're feeding your dog is the raw material his body uses to replenish itself every day. There is no substitute for quality.

Here's what to look for in a quality pet food: Human-grade ingredients, meat as the primary protein source, natural preservation, sequestered or chelated vitamins and minerals, probiotics and digestive enzymes, and low-glycemic carbohydrates.

We maintain a recommended foods page on our site that lists quality kibble, canned,
freeze-dried, and raw options — along with approved snacks and a clear list of what to avoid from the table.

Natural Remedies for Fleas, Ticks & Worms

The next most critical thing to get under control is Parasite Prevention. The transdermal liquid you drop between your dog’s shoulder blades, or the monthly pill you poke down his neck, are actually low-dose poisons. For dogs with seizures, the last thing they need is another poison to deal with. These items are neurotoxins, and seizures are noted as possible side effects. This is not something you would want to continue to use.

There are natural alternatives. One popular choice is “Bug-Off Garlic” from Springtime. The Nzymes Tincture of Blackleaf contains Black Walnut properties derived from the husk. Black Walnut has shown to be a natural repellant to parasites of all types.

Using This Program While Under Medications or Natural Remedies

If Your Dog is Currently Taking Medications

The Nzymes products are 100% natural and whole-food based. As such, they do not conflict with medications. Many of our customers start out with us at this point. We DO NOT recommend discontinuing the medications. Any changes should be made under the direction of the prescribing Vet. Since the Nzymes will naturally detoxify the body, it is a good idea to start more slowly, at 1/2 recommended usage, and then gradually increase to the normal recommendations for use.

In time, if your dog is going weeks or months episode free, we suggest consulting with your vet about the possibility of decreasing the medications. The goal would be to eventually stop them altogether, if possible. It is always best to work with your vet so that he/she is aware of your pet’s progress and vitals.

If Your Dog is Already Using Natural Remedies

There are a good many natural products out there these days that can be quite supportive of neurological conditions in pets. These would include Omega-3, Mushrooms, Turmeric and others. We are often asked if the Nzymes can be used along with these other natural products. The answer is Yes. Just like with medications, the Nzymes are all-natural, and will not conflict with these other natural aids.
