Guest guest Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Has there been any study done on the effect of I deficiency in animals? Also, our dog has been scratching and this causes broken skin - wondering whether a drop of I in his water once in a while could assist with treatment of reaction to bites from mossies and sandflies ......

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Most of the studies on iodine deficiency have been done on animals -- rats mostly, but also cows, pigs, chickens, birds, fish, goats, sheep, dogs, cats, horses, etc. There is a section in our links on iodine and animals: Links > 51 Special Topics in Iodine > 51 Iodine and Animals iodine/links/General_Discussions__001138403092/Iodine_and_Animals_001140353684/ I know that topical application of iodine to mosquito bites helps in humans -- so should work on dogs, too.

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 You can buy kelp in bulk for animals ... it seems to prevent mastitisin cows and it seems to do good things for our animals. It is really cheapin bulk, and has lots of good stuff in it besides the iodine. Other stuff that helps itching:-- Diatomous earth: there is a parasite that causes some of that itching. -- Tea Tree oil: kills all kinds of stuff-- Effective microorganisms-- Additional fat in the diet (most dog foods have too little, because it goes rancid) -- Make sure the dog food is wheat free: a lot of dogs react to wheat with skin problems.-- On 1/29/07, Roshkov < jroshkov@...> wrote: Has there been any study done on the effect of I deficiency in animals?

Pretty much, it has everything that isn't in pasture grass, plus it seems to change the gut bacterial mix and helps chelate the problematic stuff. You might google on " kelp animal feed " . But here is one excerpt: http://www.naturalways.com/kelp02.htmShows a nutritional breakdownhttp://www.acadianseaplants.com/animalapplication.html Provides trace elements in a naturally balanced way.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2007 Report Share Posted February 3, 2007 Part of the problem though, is that the analysis doesn't really tell you how it works. There is a fair amount of copper in kelp: but animals who eat mainly kelp tend to be lower in copper, because it actually draws copper out of the body (which in the case of sheep, tends to be a good thing). It seems to be pretty harmless, an any case, and when I've eaten it or given it to animals, it's always been with good results.-- On 2/3/07, SunshineGinny <ginger@...> wrote: Here's a link to a nutritional profile for kelp:http://www.naturalways.com/kelp02.htmGinger- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2007 Report Share Posted February 6, 2007 , I used kelp when treating one of my dogs for cancer. He did well on it. Linn > > Thanks. > > Have you fed this to your dogs or cats if you have any? > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 8, 2007 Report Share Posted February 8, 2007 Yes. I routinely feed the dog a supplement which includes kefir-soaked meat scraps and chunks of fat (he needs the calories, he's an outdoordog), diatomous earth, and kelp. I can't say how much it helps him: he's always been in good health though he's over 10 now, butI haven't had a dog before so I don't know how he'd be doing otherwise.I have chickens too, but I don't feed them kelp: they get our food scraps, which have seaweed in them, plus theyeat a lot of bugs etc. And oyster shells. Anyway, they've never gotten sick as far as I can tell so I don't bother tweaking their diet. From experimenting, I know seaweed makes a big difference in my own health, though I'm not sure exactly what ingredientin it makes the difference. The day after I eat a lot of seaweed,my eyesight changes rather drastically, and if I don't eat it, my eyes go " fuzzy " (which they used to be all the time).I kind of think this may be because it reduces intra-ocular pressuresomehow, though again, I don't know exactly why it woulddo this. I'm inclined to pin it on the iodine though ... -- On 2/6/07, Parashis <artpages@...> wrote: Thanks.Have you fed this to your dogs or cats if you have any?
