“My cat is 15 and has feline herpes. In the past, I have given her lysine with very little results. Since taking Critical Immune Defense I have seen a steady improvement. Hardly any eye discharge and her nose isn’t wet anymore. No difficulty breathing at all. My son said, “What took you so long to find this stuff?” I also give it to my 3-year-old dog, she’s healthy but …..just in case. They both eat it and have no problem eating all their food.” - Lisa
"Mushrooms (cancer tumor), Tumeric (anti-inflammatory), and Milk Thistle (rejuvenate the liver). I'm giving it to all my cats and double the dose for this one with an enlarged abdomen that the vets can't figure out. Her belly was getting so big and painful, like gas; it was like a bloated cow. The vets didn't think anything was in there... just a mystery. I figured the liver could be in distress, so regardless if it's fluid in there or full of tumors in there, this Critical Immune Defense powder is working.
Today she jumped down from a shelf, her belly is not nearly as round or hard, and I saw her belly jiggle when she reached the floor. This picture is of Rose. I really believe Critical Immune Defense is saving her life. ” - Donna
“I have a rescue and keep 8 senior and special needs cats. I give them this for cats, and it has proven to extend the lives of those who were in danger of losing their lives from cancer, renal failure, and, frankly, only God knows what else! I am grateful for this formula being available for seniors we adore and aren’t really ready to cross the 🌈 yet❣️👍😻 This was Foxy Loxy. He had been failing(14 yrs old), but as he received Pet Wellness Support, he recovered his enjoyment of life, and I could love him for 2 more years❣️ I have other kitties' who had experienced similar recoveries through Pet Wellness. Thank you again!”❣️- Mat
"The vet said he had a mass on his shoulder. We could either amputate or bring him home for palliative care only. He’s 10, so we brought him home. After antibiotics, he seemed to be better but still very lethargic. Since this happened last week, his health has gotten so much better. The mass has either diminished in size or is gone. He’s more alert and is almost 100% weight-bearing. Here he is last week. He seems so much more comfortable now. His name is Pineapple (named by my grandson).” - Elizabeth
“My sweet Tux got sick and vets could not figure out why. As he lay on my lap with a high fever I ordered this product and prayed. It came quickly and I immediately gave him some, luckily by this time he was a little better and eating some. Within three days he was almost himself again. In one week he was back to himself.
This stuff is amazing! God gave us everything to heal and nourish our body and this product is His gift. I now give it to his brother and our pups. Our oldest pup had a lump at the base of his tail, it is now 3/4 gone! HIGHLY RECOMMEND and I tell everyone!” - Cory

Your pet's immune system is the key to its health! Here's why:
In today’s world, viruses and diseases are rampant, and it can be challenging to protect your pet.
Let’s face it. Your pet lives in a world filled with contamination.
They spend 90% of their waking hours on the floor, mopping up toxins, chemicals, and pollutants.
The household cleaning products, fertilizer on the lawn, and preservatives in their foods can be harmful. Bacteria, airborne contaminants, and viruses transmitted by humans can challenge their health.
Most pets do not eat an optimal diet, and likely do not get as much exercise as they require.
What do you do?
You need to put your pet’s immune system in overdrive!
Research shows that a well-balanced and functional immune system is essential to your pet’s overall health and well-being.
"The immune system acts like a nonstop housekeeper", describes Dr. Donna Raditic, an American College of Veterinary Nutrition (ACVN) diplomate in Athens, Georgia.
It identifies potentially harmful pathogens like bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, then works to eliminate them before they can do harm.
And a pet's immune system monitors cells to ensure they’re working properly.
“When other cells are aging or functioning abnormally—such as a cancer cell reproducing too rapidly—the immune system attempts to step in and maintain proper physiological function and balance,” Dr. Raditic explains.

CANCER RATES ARE SKYROCKETING
THE DOCTORS AGREE
Mushrooms = Anticancer Activity
“As a pet lover, I think it makes sense that the compounds in mushrooms be included in your pet’s diet or included by nutritional supplements. Certain mushrooms contain agents with anticancer activity and immunomodulatory properties that may help fight cancer and certain other diseases.”
- Dr. Frank Markland, Professor of biochemistry and molecular medicine at the University of Southern California Keck School of Medicine.
Pet owners CAN make a difference.
“It is the responsibility of the pet owner to do everything possible to minimize the risk of cancer in their pets. This includes a sensible lifestyle with sufficient exercise, weight management, drinking clean water, healthy food intake, and avoiding toxins. Giving your pets a high-quality antioxidant supplement is highly recommended to further reduce the risk of cancer.”
– Dr. Shawn Messonnier, Veterinarian and Founder of Paws & Claws Animal Hospital in Plano, Texas.
More cats and dogs are being diagnosed with cancer than ever before.
“Certain mushrooms and turmeric may be beneficial in helping your pet to boost its immune system to fight diseases,” explains Edwards.
“Cancer is affecting our pets at alarming rates, and it is devastating for both the families of these pets as well as the pets themselves. I am seeing this in my practice on a regular basis.”
- Dr. Jennifer Edwards, Veterinarian at Ponemah Veterinary Hospital in Amherst, New Hampshire.

What does my pet’s immune system actually do?
We feel this veterinarian does a great job of explaining the immune system in a simple and effective manner:
“The immune system acts like a nonstop housekeeper”, describes Dr. Donna Raditic, an American College of Veterinary Nutrition (ACVN) diplomate who does consulting on nutrition and integrative veterinary medicine in Athens, Georgia. “It identifies potentially harmful pathogens like bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, then works to eliminate them before they can do harm. When other cells are aging or functioning abnormally—such as a cancer cell reproducing too rapidly—the immune system attempts to step in and maintain proper physiological function and balance,” Raditic explains.
My pet is not that old so why do I need to give them this product now?
The time to start any preventative action is before your pet has an issue. As pets age, their immune systems are not as strong, and they are more susceptible to diseases. A weak immune system in dogs and cats can cause a variety of diseases such as infections, diabetes, osteoarthritis and cancers. Be a proactive pet owner and start boosting your pet’s immune system while they are younger and BEFORE they have an issue.
My pet has a sensitive stomach. Will this product cause issues?
Not likely. However, if you know (or think) that your pet has a sensitive stomach ease into the product slowly. Start with 1/3 or 1/2 the recommended dose and work your way up to full dose over a 1-2 week period. If you notice any issues, simply stop using the product or cut back to find the level that works for your pet.
My pet is taking VetSmart Formulas Hip + Joint Complex and the VetSmart Probiotic. Can I use Critical Immune Defense along with them?
Yes, absolutely! There is no problem using all the products together. And… good for you for being on top of your pet’s health!
My pet currently has cancer and is taking chemotherapy medications. Can I use Critical Immune Defense along with the chemotherapy?
Yes. Our product is all-natural and designed to be taken with chemotherapy medications. It will help boost their immune system that might be compromised by the chemotherapy medications. If your pet is being treated for any serious medical condition, we always suggest that you discuss the use of any supplements with your veterinarian. You can simply bring the bottle to them during a visit or take a photo of the label and share it with your vet.
My pet is taking prescription steroids or pain medications for another health issue. Can I use Critical Immune Defense along with the medications?
Yes. Our product is all-natural and designed to be taken with prescription medications. It will help boost their immune system that might be compromised by the medications. Again, we always suggest that you discuss the use of any supplements with your veterinarian. You can simply bring the bottle to them during a visit or take a photo of the label and share it with your vet.
My pet is so old already. Is it too late to start and will it really make a difference?
No pet is too old to start using an all-natural product that will help them live a better and longer life! It’s similar to someone who starts exercising at 80 years old. Every bit helps! Start now and you will help to prolong your pet’s lifespan!
I love my pet just like a family member. Will Critical Immune Defense prevent them from getting cancer?
We can’t guarantee that, but what we do know is our product is very effective at boosting your pet’s immune system which helps fight all types of diseases such as cancers. The research on the ingredients in Critical Immune Defense is very extensive and Asian cultures have used these ingredients effectively for many centuries.
My pet is a picky eater. How do I give them the product, and does it taste bad?
Critical Immune Defense is very easy to give to your pet. It’s a powder that you simply sprinkle on their food. It has a natural hypo-allergenic chicken flavor that appeals to both dogs and cats, and most pets love the flavor. We offer a 30-day money back guarantee if they don’t like the taste.
You mentioned that almost half (47%) of dogs and 33% of cats over the age of 10 years old get cancer. Those statistics seem very high. Where are they from?
We agree. The numbers are frighteningly high! These statistics were published by the Veterinary Cancer Society. There is so much research and so many clinical studies on the percentages of dogs and cats that get cancer. You can Google it and see the various studies online.
Are Turkey Tail Mushrooms from live turkeys?
No, they are not. Turkey Tail Mushroom, also known as Coriolus Versicolor, is a common type of mushroom that has the shape and color of a turkey tail. What is unique about the Turkey Tail Mushrooms that we use in Critical Immune Defense is the mushrooms are harvested at a very young age when the polysaccharide K (PSK) and peptides are the most concentrated, and these active compounds boost the immune system. As a reference, polysaccharide K (PSK) is an approved mushroom product to treat cancer in Japan.
I tried Critical Immune Defense, but I did not notice a difference in my pet. Why not?
Here’s a way to think about it. High blood pressure is known as the “silent killer.” That’s because people may have high blood pressure for many years and not notice it. However, because there are no visible signs does not mean nothing is happening in your body. The same is the case with boosting your pet’s immune system. You may notice that your pet is more lively or peppy, or you may not notice anything at all. Keep in mind that not seeing a visible result does not mean the product is not working.
I’ve seen other Turkey Tail products for pets online. Is your product any better?
We love this question! Our product is one of the most powerful immune boosters for pets on the market. We have combined a blend of four mushrooms along with turmeric and vitamins to create what we feel is the absolute best immune booster for pets. Our ingredients are standardized to the highest potency and the product is veterinarian strength. We invite you to compare the labels and the ingredients in our product to any others on the market to see for yourself!
I may have given my pet too much product, what do I do? My pet overdosed what do I do? I think my pet is having an allergic reaction, what do I do? I gave my pet some of your product and it is behaving oddly, what do I do?
Call your vet immediately and explain the situation. If your vet is not available, contact the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center at 888-426-4435.
I thought mushrooms were poisonous for pets?
Most mushrooms are very beneficial to humans and both cats and dogs, and less than 1% of mushrooms are harmful. The mushrooms that we use in Critical Immune Defense are “medicinal mushrooms” and they have been used to boost immune systems for centuries and are proven to be safe and effective for cats and dogs. For more than 30 years medicinal mushrooms have been approved as cancer treatments in Japan and China. More recently, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved clinical trials for Turkey Tail and other medicinal mushrooms.
"We didn't discover turkey tail," says lead investigator Leanna J. Standish, PhD, ND, LAc, FABNO, Medical Director of the Bastyr Integrative Oncology Research Center. "It's been used in Asia for thousands and thousands of years, and it turns out to be a really potent immune therapy. The significance, I think, is that we're bringing a new medicine to cancer patients in the U.S."
Studies are being conducted at several U.S. research universities, including the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine to gather data on the cancer and tumor-fighting effects of mushrooms in pets, and the development of transformative cancer therapy for pets.
Please do your own online research to learn more about the benefits of the mushrooms in our product and the research being conducted. It is quite amazing!
