Natural Plant Extracts

 

Their Role in Treating Pets


People have used plant extracts for treatment of human diseases for thousands of years. What used to be considered magic, faith, mysticism, etc, we now know there is scientific proof of their efficacy. Many drugs used today were derived from plants after purification of the active component which are then often synthesized.

Plants however, have a variety of chemical compounds in their leaves, roots, and flowers. These chemicals interact to be effective. If a specific component is extracted, such as allantoin from the Comfrey plant ( a wound healer), it may not be as effective as when left in the whole plant extract. Many products on the market have not had their components tested for the biological activity claimed so one should be careful in selecting a so-called "natural" product.

C-DERM uses only natural plant extracts of the highest quality. These have been tested in the laboratory against bacteria, fungi, and yeasts, and in the field on dogs, cats, birds, horses, reptiles and amphibians. Only safe, non-toxic, effective components are used in all of the C-DERM products.
