Total Health—Holistic pet food has become a popular wayto help pets boost energy levels, improve coats and more. (NAPSA)—Maybe you already add Omega-3s and probiotics to your diet, but what about the food you feed your four-legged friend? If you are like a growing number of pet owners, your dog or cat consumes many of the same nutrients you do. You might even make an occasional trip to the yoga studio for a “doga” (that’s dog yoga) session. It’s all part of what veterinarian Dr. Al Townshend calls a revolution in holistic pet health. “Americans are applying holis- tic health techniques for mind and body to their pets,” he says. “They appreciate that connecting with their pets meaningfully and thoughtfully each day can easily be achieved through a holistic diet. And by following a holistic feeding philosophy, pet owners are unlocking a higher level of health for their dogs andcats.” The Diet Link Say your dog is acting a bit sluggish, for instance, or the fam- ily cat’s coat has lost its sheen. Dr. Townshend says you should care- fully consider what is in their food bowl. “T can look at a dog that comes into my office and tell what he’s been eating by the condition of his skin and coat, energy level and weight,” he says. “If an animal transitions to an optimal, holistic diet, like Holistic Select, and comes back to see me in a few months, he’s like a new dog.” So how can you go holistic? Visit a local pet specialty store or the Webto find Holistic Select. It’s geared toward providing animals with a more complete system of health. Holistic Select is filled with a unique set of what’s called “Select Actives”,” the same functional ingredients that many pet owners seek to add to their own diets. They include probiotics, natural enzymes, botanicals and Omega-3s and -6s. “These ingredients have the power to positively impact a dog’s or cat’s health not just today but for the long term,” notes Dr. Town- shend. “They work together to help with digestion and nutrient absorption, while also fighting disease and stress—and even im- proving the look andfeel of a pet’s coat.” To learn more about holistic pet food and health, visit www. holisticselect.com or call (800) 225-0904.
