    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 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.

    My boy, Blazer

    My boy is a 12 year old shepherd/husky mix who has had surgery to have a plate at the joint of his left leg. Since starting Critical Immune Defence we noticed a huge difference in our boy. We hike twice a day and his health has remained stable.

    See no difference

    I had hopes this might help my dog with severe allergies. After 3 months 2x/day, I haven't seen anything worthwhile or significant. Although I will say, he has less yeast in his ears, so that IS something

    Hi Beth,
    thank you so much for sharing your experience! I'm sorry that you haven't seen the results you'd hoped for in managing your pup's severe allergies. It's encouraging to hear, though, that there's been an improvement with less yeast in his ears—that's definitely a positive sign! Every dog responds differently, and allergy relief can be tricky. Your handsome pup is lucky to have you, and we're here to support you both on his health journey! 🐶💕

    It makes me know I’m doing the best for my pets.

    I got the Critical Immune Defense for my 17 year old cat. He’s doing better- back to jumping up on the bed! Now I have a year old puppy who seems to be liking it on her food. I figured this is a good way to start a healthy life for my newest pet.
