"I've lost two golden retrievers to cancer, so I've been doing a ton of research since I got my newest puppy. I want to give him the best chance of living a long and healthy life and Critical Immune Defense is a key part to that equation. He likes it and I believe in being proactive! So glad I found this company!"

“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.”

"Wish there was a human version!! Our large male German shepherd was getting growths on his neck and by his eye. They were getting larger. I saw this product and ordered one canister, not expecting much. However, within 2 weeks, the growths were getting smaller. They finally disappeared! We now give this as a preventative to both of our dogs! Highly recommend it!! Worth the money!!"

"30 days ago I went to a cancer specialist who told me that my dog’s prognosis was not very good and he would eventually get lumps and tumors all over his body. I left very depressed.
I found your product online by a miracle, and I started giving it to him. I don't know what it’s doing, but all older cancer tumors are gone and it seems to have eliminated the new tumors as well. I've been giving the VetSmart product twice a day for approximately 30 days. I'm just so grateful and so thankful that it works so well. He is looking really, really good. Thank you so much! I need to order more soon.”

Your pet's immune system is the key to its health! Here's why:

It’s your job to feed and nourish it, and make sure it operates at optimal levels to fight disease and cancers. 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.

“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!”

"My female pitbull was diagnosed with lymphoma back in 2020. We did chemo for 2 years. During this time, I found the product and started using it on all my dogs, even healthy ones.

We are now in almost 4 years later, and my girl Haven has been in remission for almost 2 years. I only give the product in the dinner feedings. I believe it saved her."

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 dogs and cats 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.

NEW Enhanced Formula

Discover Our Enhanced Formula!

We've improved our formula! The new product may appear lighter in color and have a slightly different texture (but the same great taste), thanks to our innovative use of the fruiting body and mycelium of the four mushrooms, instead of mushroom extracts.

 Why the Change?

Traditional mushroom extracts are processed using heated water, which is then sprayed to create a powder. Our research suggests that this heat processing can diminish the valuable nutrients in the mushrooms.

Understanding Fruiting Body and Mycelium

Fruiting Body: This is the part of the mushroom you're familiar with—the cap and stem.

Mycelium: These are the nutrient-packed roots and base of the mushroom.

We use the entire mushroom, grinding it into a nutrient-dense powder that boasts higher levels of beta-glucans and polysaccharides than extract powders. Independent testing has shown that our new mushrooms contain up to 250% more beta-glucans and polysaccharides.

Research-Backed Benefits

According to research published by the National Library of Medicine, beta-glucans and polysaccharides are renowned for their metabolic and immunomodulatory properties, including anticancer, antibacterial, and antiviral effects. In some countries, the mushrooms we use in Critical Immune Defense are prescribed not only to prevent cancers and diseases but also to effectively treat them.

Organic and Sustainable

Our mushroom blend is organically grown in Canada on sustainable farms using patented and breakthrough growing processes to enhance the full spectrum of bioactive compounds. It doesn't get any better for your pet!

Experience the powerful benefits of our enhanced formula and give your pets the best in health and wellness!

Made in the USA to the highest quality standards.

VetSmart Formulas is made in the USA in FDA audited facilities which adhere to cGMP and are audited by Underwriter Labs. Every ingredient is carefully inspected and tested before processing, ensuring a consistently safe, high-quality product for your beloved pet’s health.

The Power of Critical Immune Defense Powder

Our boy Diesel is a 12 1/2 yr old Stafford Terrier that about a yr ago started to show signs of Senior challenges…..arthritis pain, limping, lethargy & fatigue throughout his day. He also began the “late hour pacing” around the house & confusion associated with dementia. He has been on medications for most of these issues, with some improvement, but symptoms still persisted. So about 4-5 months ago we started adding the Critical Immune Defense powder to his meals and to date have seen some improvement in the overall “power” behind his movements, and an increase in his energy. We hope this is the start of getting his symptoms under control & feeling better. So far it’s a win win, and we will continue to keep him on the Critical Immune Defense powder.

Protecting my dogs health.

I’ve been giving this to two of my four dogs for a little more than a year and I’ve noticed a decrease in symptoms of inflammation. I’m giving this as a , as an insurance on their health, especially for my 15 year old girl in the photo! I recently started giving it to a third dog because I’ve been reading about the benefits of mushrooms on torn, ACL and CCL ligaments which this particular dog just tore. I include the powder during their evening meals and they seem to enjoy.
