February 5th, 2020 at 9:58 am EST
Hello Friend,

Welcome to Wednesday and the 'early February blues..'   It's -10 outside, many a people are complaining about the cold/lack of sun..but not the critters

Tula went for a decent run yesterday..happy to be out...run/pee.. again and again..

Murray my cat eats/sleeps/goes out for a bit/comes back in and repeats..

They seem pretty content

I am thinking it may be helpful to be taking more cues from the pets:-)



Today's article comes from a new study on Inflammatory Bowel Disease, so is particularly relevant for any of you who have dogs or cats with chronic vomiting or diarrhea.

In starting with ALL of this I encourage you to get up to speed with the basic modalities of alternative healing

This is where I recommend you begin:

Protein-rich diet may help soothe inflamed gut

Mice fed tryptophan develop immune cells that foster a tolerant gut

Date: August 3, 2017

Source: Washington University School of Medicine

Summary:

The combination of a bacterium that normally lives in the gut and a protein-rich diet promotes a more tolerant, less inflammatory gut immune system, according to new research. The findings, in mice, suggest a way to tilt the gut immune system away from inflammation, potentially spelling relief for people living with inflammatory bowel disease.


Story

Immune cells patrol the gut to ensure that harmful microbes hidden in the food we eat don't sneak into the body. Cells that are capable of triggering inflammation are balanced by cells that promote tolerance, protecting the body without damaging sensitive tissues. When the balance tilts too far toward inflammation, inflammatory bowel disease can result.

Now, researchers at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis have found that a kind of tolerance-promoting immune cell appears in mice that carry a specific bacterium in their guts. Further, the bacterium needs tryptophan -- one of the building blocks of proteins -- to trigger the cells' appearance.

"We established a link between one bacterial species -- Lactobacillus reuteri -- that is a normal part of the gut microbiome, and the development of a population of cells that promote tolerance," said Marco Colonna, MD, the Robert Rock Belliveau MD Professor of Pathology and the study's senior author. "The more tryptophan the mice had in their diet, the more of these immune cells they had."

If such findings hold true for people, it would suggest that the combination of L. reuteri and a tryptophan-rich diet may foster a more tolerant, less inflammatory gut environment, which could mean relief for the million or more Americans living with the abdominal pain and diarrhea of inflammatory bowel disease.

The study is published Aug. 3 in the journal Science.






How this applies to our pets

1. If you have a pet with IBD, or related disease discuss with your vet about altering diet to primary protein- eliminate carbohydrates.

2. Look at supplementing with the amino acid tryptophan 

Trypyophan doses: 100mg/10lbs twice daily.


The other 'new' treatment for IBD/inflammatory and immune mediated disease in our pets is CBD (cannabidiol). 

CBD doses of 1mg/10lbs twice daily to start. It's important to be using a Non MCT oil containing CBD supplement using Hemp oil as the carrier oil as this is less likely to cause GI upset.
