As some of you know, Hudson has been battling with a case of the itchies for about a year now. We’ve done a very in-depth allergy and wellness test to help manage his diet and steer clear of problematic foods and objects that trigger negative reactions in his skin, so we’re good on that front – which can be the hardest battle.

The issue for this big guy, we learned, is that he has yeasty skin (and still remains itchy, despite being on a potato-free, low-starch diet) and testing showed that candida is present in his system. Being in the pet industry for 6 years now, I’ve tried countless holistic remedies and products to try and find this kiddo some relief, but nothing worked well enough to stick with it.

Enter Herbsmith.

I started incorporating Clear AllerQi and Milk Thistle into Hudson’s meals, twice daily, and was so relieved to see that his itching diminished in just two weeks! He went from scratching incessantly, especially in the mornings, to barely scratching at all after about 14 days! 

A couple weeks later, I’d become distracted and fell out of the habit of adding the supplements into his regimen for a few days and, low and behold, his skin freaked out all over again. While I was kicking myself for being the reason for his setback, it was really interesting to see that reaction because it confirmed to me that this combo of healing herbs really WAS working magic for our big guy.

We’re now back on track, and I’m so thrilled that Hudson is feeling relief – all thanks to Herbsmith’s Clear Allerqi & Milk Thistle powders! We can’t thank the kind souls over at Herbsmith enough for their generosity. I’ve been a fan of their company for years now, but this experience has really set them apart from other brands in so many amazing ways. They’ve gained a forever customer and supporter in us, not only for Hudson’s new supplements, but also for those awesome treats! Herbsmith: We ♥ you.
