5 Natural Ways to Treat Anemia
Author: Linda KajdaAnemia is a condition that is commonly caused by blood loss from wounds or parasites such as worms and fleas. Symptoms of anemia in dogs include white or pale gums, weakness, and a fast pulse. Sometimes this condition indicates a more serious illness such as toxicity that results from a drug exposure. However, the more simple and common cause of anemia which is blood loss can be easily treated with a view toward promoting the growth of new red blood cells.
You need to give your dog a special diet rich in iron, protein, and
vitamin B12. The following lists of foods and
supplements are especially helpful and provide the necessary nutrients that your dog needs to treat anemia.
1. Beef liver which contains iron, protein, B complex, and B12.
2. Kelp powder which contains iodine and other trace minerals.
3. Green vegetables which contains iron and other minerals.
4. Nutritional yeast along with B12 which offers the same benefits as the liver.
5. Vitamin C, from 500 to 2,000 milligrams per day (depending on the dog's size) which helps with the absorption of iron from the intestinal tract.
If the condition is caused by parasites, then you will need to nip the problem in the bud and treat the
parasite infestation first before using any other forms of treatment.
