FEEDING NEW EARTH (formerly Cell Tech)’S NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS TO ANIMALS
New Earth (formerly Cell Tech)’s bluegreen algae product line, originally developed for humans, offers superior nutritional support for animals. Supporting the health and immune systems of your animals with high quality nutrition is the best choice for their bodies and, in the long run, the most cost effective.
While choosing any one algae product has the potential to greatly improve the quality of life of your animals, combining the products offers the best advantage for maintaining vigorous health.
Choose the appropriate products for animals just as you do for people. Evaluate the animal’s health needs and decide which products to feed based on the nutritional benefits and properties of each product. (You may also need to refer to the New Earth (formerly Cell Tech) product brochure and specification sheets for more detailed information about each product).
WHAT:
The powdered algae blend is a combination of coarse-grade whole algae and the heart of the algae with cell wall removed in a powder form (refer to the product specification sheets for a complete nutritional breakdown of these products). Since good health starts with nutrition, this algae blend is appropriate for any animal of any age. It’s wide array of nutrients is an excellent way to start off young animals on the road to health, maintain healthy adult animals, and bolster the health of again and/or debilitated animals.
WHY:
- Algae is the fundamental basis of the food chain and provides nutrition in its simplest and most diverse form.
- Bluegreen algae is balanced by nature to provide a broad spectrum of micronutrients – essential nutrients that work together to promote healthy bodies.
- The powdered algae blend is enzymatically active to aid in digestion and assimilation of nutrients.
- It provides phytonutrients vital to the health of the immune system and essential fatty acids (omega-3 and omega-6) which are essential to the health of the liver, heart, kidneys, and brain.
- Bluegreen algae is a great source of naturally occurring chlorophyll, which is vital for animal health. Chlorophyll supports blood and liver health and assists the body with the cleansing of toxins.
- Bluegreen algae contains trace amounts of almost every organic mineral in a form highly available to the body. These minerals are necessary for the body to absorb vitamins and utilize food. In addition, trace minerals help maintain liver function, support growth, support proper development, support strong bones, as well as promote healthy skin and coat.
- The powdered algae blend provides natural, whole vitamins in small, balanced, amounts to transform food into energy. In particular, bluegreen algae provides B-vitamins to support the nervous system and beta-carotene (which is essential for reproduction, growth, skin and hair coat, eyes, and respiratory health).
- Bluegreen algae provides all 22 amino acids. These essential and non-essential amino acids occur in a naturally balanced form and have retained their nutrient content through specialized processing.
WHAT TO LOOK FOR
Improvements in overall health, breeding, reproduction, birthing, lactating (all normal results of a well-nourished body), hoof quality, improvement in learning and ability to focus, reduction of aggressive and fearful behaviors, depression, and hyperactivity.
For particular health needs, an animal’s taste preference, or convenience of feeding, you may choose to feed your animal human grade bluegreen algae the is the whole algae and/or the heart of the algae with cell wall removed. The capsule or tablet form can be fed directly to the animal instead of mixed into food, which may make it easier to determine that the animal is receiving its algae.
GENERAL FEEDING SUGGESTIONS
As with ALL dietary changes, start slowly with small amounts and increase gradually as products are well tolerated. Animals store toxins in their tissues just as people do, and the bluegreen algae products may assist in cleansing these toxins from the bodies’ systems. Cleansing may appear as slightly upset digestion, loose stools, etc. If the animal has current allergy symptoms, you may also notice a slight increase in these symptoms during this process. If the adjustment process seems too uncomfortable, simply decrease the amount of product being fed and slowly increase until it is easily tolerated by the animal.
Use a common sense approach to starting your animal on bluegreen algae. Your animal’s response will tell you what feeding adjustments need to be made. Sprinkle a small amount on one portion of their regular food. If they leave that portion of their regular food, wait a day or two and reintroduce an even smaller amount. If they still leave that, their body may be telling them and you vital information. This occurs more often then their systems are out of balance. For animals in this situation, wait a day or two and start them on digestive enzymes and acidophilus for a week or two before introducing bluegreen algae. Animals experiencing serious health challenges can be started even more slowly by adding these products on an every other day basis. Keep in mind that stressed, ill, or injured animals, growing animals, and animals of advanced age require greater nutritional support. If your animal(s) fall into one of these categories, you can increase beyond the suggested amount of any and all New Earth (formerly Cell Tech) products according to your animal’s needs.
A few notes:
- The whole form of the algae may be used in lieu of or in conjunction with the powdered algae blend for extra energy.
- The form of algae with the cell wall removed may be used in lieu of or in conjunction with th powdered algae blend for calming disposition.
- Probiotics may be used individually on a daily basis, rotating every 3 to 5 days or use any combination daily to equal one amount.
BRIEF PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Wild Bluegreen Body
When: This human grade product may be used when an increase in energy is desired or preventative nutrition is needed.
Why: Some animals will better utilize this whole form of the algae than the combination of both kinds of algae found in the powdered algae blend. Only experimentation will provide this information for a particular animal.
What to Look For: Improvement in immune system functioning, energy, vitality, attitude, overall health, and physical performance.
Wild Bluegreen Mind
When: Feed this form of algae with the cell wall removed to animals experiencing stress or nervousness of any kind, when high levels of concentration for work or training are required, or when the animal is suffering from or recovering from serious health problems. This form that is the heart of the algae is a gentler way to introduce this superior nutrition to an animal whose system is out of balance.
Why: Feed to nourish and maintain a healthy nervous system. This form of algae, with its higher overall amino acid content, is important to add to the diet when serious health challenges exist.
What to Look For: Improvement in overall health, learning, and ability to focus. Also look for reduction in fearful behaviors, depression, and hyperactivity.
Digestive Enzymes
When: Use with all cooked, processed, or dry foods (including seeds, grains, hay, meats, frozen foods, and home-cooked meals). Use is especially important when feeding animals commercial diets, which are processed at high temperatures. New Earth (formerly Cell Tech) enzymes are formulated with Wild Bluegreen Mind, which provides a wide range of vitamins and minerals that are necessary for proper enzymatic activity and function within the body. These enzymes are vital for animals with immune system problems, digestion problem, allergies, and skin problems.
Why: Enzymes aid the digestion of enzyme-dead foods, thereby lowering the stress that digestion places on the body, and assist in more complete digestion of proteins.
What to Look For: Improvement in immune system function, digestion, hair coat and feather quality, and reductions in skin problems and conditions related to food allergies.
Enzymes Plus
Enzymes Plus may be used in place of Enzymes. The herbal properties are beneficial for the stomach, spleen, kidneys, pancreas, liver and gall bladder. You may feed half the amount you would of Enzymes. Check to see if this formula is agreeable to your animal by taste test.
Probiotics (Acidophilus, Bifidus, and Spectrabiotic)
When: Acidophilus benefits the small intestine, Bifidus benefits the large intestine, and Spectrabiotic is for the entire digestive system. Probiotics are important to all living things. They are critical to animals showing signs of stress or illness, those with unpleasant breath and body odor, and those on medication.
Why: Friendly bacteria aid in digestion, as well as the absorption and production of nutrients, enzymes, and coenzymes.
What to Look For: Improvement in overall well-being, sweeter breath, fewer symptoms of poor digestion, and better skin, hair coat, or feather quality.
Super Q10
When: Use when feeding any heat-processed or dried foods. Animals fed these foods maybe lacking this crucial nutrient. Coenzyme Q10, which is also heat-sensitive, is essential to all cellular life (with the exception of 3 types of lizards). New Earth (formerly Cell Tech)’s Q10 is easily absorbed in the body because it is emulsified in organic, cold-pressed flaxseed oil. Super Q10 should be fed to support animals suffering from circulation problems, gum tissue damage, and any heart, lung or hormone problems. The product is excellent for young animals with health challenges or older animals.
Why: Coenzyme Q10 has the potential to enhance cellular function, thereby boosting liver, heart, muscle, and immune system performance.
What to Look For: Improvement in breath odor, energy levels, focus, flexibility, and immune system function.
Wild Earth
When: Feed to any animal exposed to free radicals, which could contribute to aging, weakness, and degenerative diseases. Sources of free radicals in our environment are extensive. Animals are exposed to the same sources of free radicals that people are, including pollution in the air, water, ground, and food. In addition, animals encounter increased exposure because they may sleep near or on top of entertainment systems and computers, lay on carpets treated with chemicals such as formaldehyde, eat grass in yards or pastures treated with chemical fertilizers or pesticides, and may chew on chemically treated plastic and rubber toys.
Why: Potential aid to the removal of excess free radicals through the production of antioxidant enzymes.
What to Look For: Improvement in flexibility, personality, temperament, liver health, and immune function.
