The following is an excerpt about pet health from our upcoming newsletter:
"I wanted to add to the Newsletter that
Hedy now eats raw organic carrots, broccoli stalks, green beans, romaine lettuce, zucchini, summer squash, carrot/apple pulp, and leftover Gerson soup. She loves it all. Her coat is softer than it was before and she has lost the doggy smell. She used to stink and scratch because she was allergic to the corn and wheat in her food. She's on organic kibble now and lots of vegetables. She's also much calmer. I thought she was just a mischievous puppy, but perhaps she had an irritated nervous system. Lately I've been doing a lot of travel and book signings. At yesterday's event, Hedy was so well-behaved that I kept touching her nose to see if she had a fever. Today she was the same. She's simply more at home in her skin.
"I've been telling every group about Hedy's new diet in the hope that they will consider that for their own animals. All we can do is educate and demonstrate the benefits by example. I'm astounded at the changes in Hedy after only a few days of giving her much more vegetable matter in her diet (at Charlotte's suggestion). I knew it would make Hedy healthier. I didn't expect to make her more serene. She still loves to play and has lots of energy, but off leash she no longer races around like a maniac-which is very good since she's a guide dog!"
