Calm Your Pet's Nerves & Anxiety

Calm Your Pet's Nerves & Anxiety

The world in which we reside is getting increasingly stressful, and not just for us but for our pets, too. With this past Fourth of July some pets that have never seemed to mind the loud bangs of the fireworks are suddenly shaken. We find the most frustrating part of having an anxious animal on your hands is that they are often quite misunderstood. With some simple supplements you can help them recover from a bout of anxiousness and even prevent future outbreaks by bringing the brain back to its optimal functionality.

3 Ways to Calm Nerves and Anxiety in Pets and People

The world in which we reside is getting increasingly stressful, and not just for us but for our pets, too. With this past Fourth of July some pets that have never seemed to mind the loud bangs of the fireworks are suddenly shaken. We find the most frustrating part of having an anxious animal on your hands is that they are often quite misunderstood. With some simple supplements you can help them recover from a bout of anxiousness and even prevent future outbreaks by bringing the brain back to its optimal functionality.

Fight or Flight

When your animal is operating within a high-alert, “fight or flight” mindset for an extended amount of time, their essential fatty acids are burned at an alarmingly fast rate. Brain and nerve functions suffer from this lack of essential fatty acids in the body. The nerves become frayed, brittle and literally break off, causing their functionality to decrease. Essential fatty acids keep the nerves lubricated and running smoothly. Due to poor diets, many animals and people don't receive the essential fatty acids and minerals that are needed in an increasingly stressful world. Proper nutrition and supplementation including essential fatty acids will begin to replenish your pet’s nerve centers so that they can function properly.

Here are a few herbal supplements that we at The Pet Beastro have had the most success with season after season:

Nature’s Sunshine GABA

1823

This herbal blend is found within our central nervous system and used to prevent nerve cells from over-firing by making them less susceptible to stimulation. GABA (Gamma Amino Butyric Acid) is an essential amino acid that balances neurotransmitters, which improves circulation to the brain and, in turn, improves brain function. This amino acid can even help heal stress-induced illnesses. Forty to fifty percent of the synapses in the brain contain GABA, making it the most widely distributed amino acid in the body. That's why it's crucial to replace it when it burns up due to extreme anxiety. GABA will help your pet rebalance its nerves and rebuild the damaged, frayed ends of their nerves, while also preventing future damage. In a stressful situation, GABA inhibits the cells from firing and creating the “fight or flight” response. As with any herbal supplementation, the body must first balance itself (or reach homeostasis) before the desired effect of the herb presents itself. This herbal blend contains GABA, glutamine, taurine, spirulina, and passion flower.

HYL-52282-1

#6 Kali Phos Tissue Salt

This cell salt is known as the nerve nutrient. Kali Phos is found in the gray matter of the brain and also within nerves themselves. Potassium Phosphate is an essential mineral to the mammalian nervous system. This homeopathic cell salt helps reduce aggression and stress that is found in an animal with nervous disorders. Kali Phos heads straight to the central nervous system and rejuvenates the nerves with the potassium phosphate your pet needs to function but may not be getting due to poor diet, poor sleeping habits, or intense stress. This remedy assists with many symptoms that intense stress leaves in its wake such as lowered vitality or lack of “pep,” timidity, tantrums, depression and sleeplessness.

These supplements are safe and effective for both pets and people. If you are having a bit of an anxious spell yourself, try adding these supplements to your health regimen. This will not only help you feel better, but will also prevent the nervousness you are feeling from affecting your pet. Repairing the brain and nerves of your pet will not only return them to their prior, less anxious demeanor, but it will also give you peace of mind knowing that your animal is receiving the amino acids and minerals they need for proper brain function.
