The skin is the largest organ of the body. It is flexible, waterproof, and covers the entire outside of the body. It performs several important roles, including acting as a barrier, regulating influence between the outside environment and the controlled environment within our pet’s bodies, as well as providing assistance to the liver, kidneys, and intestines in the removal of waste.
What are the causes of skin and coat problems?
Toxins are routinely eliminated through the skin, and skin and coat problems can often indicate a number of underlying concerns including toxin overload, anxiety, thyroid problems and a compromised immune system.
Other causes of skin and coat problems include:
bacterial and fungal infections
fleas (some pets develop a hypersensitivity to fleabites)
dietary allergies
allergies to certain irritants (e.g. commercial pet shampoo)
The natural way
Being an organ of the body, the skin should not be seen in isolation. In fact, skin health and vitality is best achieved by pursuing systemic health. Following a healthy diet and exercise routine helps to support the body as a whole and can have excellent results on skin health if adhered to regularly. Remember that anything that affects your pet’s liver will definitely also affect the appearance of the skin and coat, as the liver and skin are closely linked in their efforts to purify and cleanse the body. Natural remedies have an excellent record in the maintenance skin and systemic health and are well worth exploring in a quest for skin support.
Skin & Coat Tonic contains a combination of specially selected herbs, nutrients and biochemic tissue salts known for their tonic and supportive function on the skin and coat. Regular use of Skin & Coat Tonic will quickly help to support shine and systemic health in the skin and coat, leaving your pet looking and feeling in peak condition.
Skin & Coat Tonic is also a benefit for 'show pets' who need a 'beauty boost' before competitive events.
What else can I do to help my pet?
Brushing your pet’s coat regularly will stimulate the release of protective oils, keep your pet’s coat healthy and encourage blood flow to the skin.
Talk to a holistic vet before immunizing your pet. Over-vaccination may cause unnecessary stimulation of the immune system which can cause problems especially in the long-term.
Avoid exposure to toxins and chemicals as much as possible including pesticides, herbicides, commercial flea collars, flea powder, insecticides and second-hand cigarette smoke. These can contribute to and cause skin irritations
If your pet has chronic skin problems, try changing the brand of shampoo used
Embark on a good flea prevention program. Fleas are an external source of skin irritation and may aggravate an underlying skin problem
A tablespoon or two of olive oil added to the food a few times a week can help improve skin and coat health
Ensure your pet is eating a balanced, high quality diet with plenty of raw and unprocessed food (preferably organic)
Use Immunity and Liver Support™ to boost your pet’s immune functioning and resistance against disease and infection
Filtered or bottled water is preferable to chlorinated or fluorinated water
Food and water bowls should be made of glass, stainless steel or porcelain
Regular exercise will help to keep your pet healthy and fit.
"We really want to thank you for a great product which works well to bring the shine back to our cat’s fur and also helps her in other healthy ways. We will certainly follow your advice and use the capsules every few months as a ‘top up’ to keep her in top health." Zelda and Mick.
"I can recommend your products to anyone who wants a healthy alternative for their animal with a problem. I had given up on the ‘natural remedies’ that I wasted my money on so many times, but I have never ever come away from your products feeling disappointed. My latest purchase of your Skin and coat tonic also lived up to your great reputation and I have recommended you to many of my fellow animal lovers who are just as happy. Thank you! " Yael R.
"A combination of Pet Skin and Coat Tonic and the LiverAid has made a huge difference to the overall condition of my husky who has always had a problem with eczema and scratching due to her thick coat. I am trying the Flatulence Preventer next as we seem to have a problem with that too. Thank you for your help and speedy advice in my times of need! I am recommending your website to all of my friends!" Lynda K.
"I can't tell you how pleased I am with this product. I have a one year old English Toy Spaniel who has been suffering from horrible itchy skin (this breed is apparently prone to skin problems). I tried a "skin balance" remedy offered by one of your competitors, with no results or relief whatsoever. After having Romeo on your Skin and Coat Tonic for about 3 weeks now, the improvement in his skin is about 80% (and hopefully will continue to improve the longer he is on this formula). I also noticed that where his skin was previously hot to the touch, it is now normal and cool, and he is comfortable and relieved. Thanks you for a wonderful product. I will keep him on this forever."Linda
"I bought this Skin and Coat Tonic for my cat with Allergy Itch Ease to help him stop his compulsive over-grooming. Well, low and behold this cat which always had rough fur; which I thought was just normal for him, developed soft and shiny fur like a normal healthy cat! Amazing! The Allergy Itch Ease seems to be helping with his red and irritated skin from his over-grooming. Another great product!"Elizabeth

Skin and Coat Tonic contains the following 100% natural ingredients:
Horsetail
(Equisetum arvense) has been widely used in Western and Chinese herbalism for many centuries. This herb is an effective tissue tonic due to its high silica content. Silica is essential in the maintenance of healthy skin, bones, claws, and fur. It is the main component in all connective body tissues, including the myelin sheaths around nerve cells and the membranes of the brain and spinal cord. It also contains health promoting compounds called sterols (D'Agostino, M., Dini, A., Pizza, C., Senatore, F., and Aquino, R. “Sterols from Equisetum arvense.” Boll.Soc Ital.Biol Sper. 12-30-1984; 60(12):2241-2245.)
Dandelion
(Taraxacum officinalis) is also a source of vitamins and minerals, including Vitamin A, D, C, various B Vitamins, iron, lecithin, silicon, potassium, magnesium, zinc and manganese. It has also been researched for its ability to soothe the skin. (Schutz, K., Carle, R., and Schieber, A. “Taraxacum--a review on its phytochemical and pharmacological profile.” J Ethnopharmacol 10-11-2006;107(3):313-323.)
Spirulina
(Arthrospira platenis) is a single celled micro-organism found in the sea and is widely used as a source of chlorophyll. Widely used for its nutritive properties, Spirulina contains protein, vitamins (including B12 and folic acid) and carotenoids. This sea algae has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years as a tonic to support energy, immune system and liver functioning, as well as all round systemic health.
Bladderwrack
(Fucus vesiculosis) is a sea vegetable that is a concentrated source of minerals, including iodine, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and iron. As a source of iodine, it supports the production of thyroid hormones, which are necessary for maintaining healthy metabolism in all cells of the body. Regular use will also support skin and coat condition via healthy thyroid functioning.
Kali Sulph
is a biochemic tissue salt that is essential for distributing life giving oxygen throughout the body and keeping cell membranes in peak health. Kali sulph also helps to maintain health and balance in the skin and underlying tissue.
