Anyone Ever Heard of this?

Hey you guys,

Someone from the FML gave me the recipe for a adrenal serum using extracts? I can't give the exact recipe as apparently her vet is doing a study for it. But it is all like: Grape, Clover, Pau D, etc given 1-3 times a day.

From what she said, It had been given to one of her ferrets, (and many others) when it went adrenal. Than when they did surgery, The tumors were gone. Some people use melatonin with the extracts.

One thing you do have to do in order to use it, is do a small journal of the changes & basic information to be sent to the vet. Clinical Trial & observation?

I've actually got that recipe. I've never used it (hmmm maybe I don't any more, I've changed my computer since then ). Some of the components are harder for me to get up here. She uses very specific companies for her herbs, you can't just order them from anyone, the amounts and the working ingredients have to be exact, gravity weights too. I've never spoken to any one other than her to find out if it works. Other people have used it. She's had this recipe for years. Maybe someone else on here has used it with some success to back up her statements. I checked out the herbs that she uses, some are a bit sketchy when used for cats but can be used on dogs so ferrets....maybe . Anybody?

i made one once using a bunch of stuff including pine bark extract, grape seed extract, etc. this was about 1996 so a while ago --so i'm not sure if it is the same one. i'm sure it probably is or a variation of it.
it didn't work.

hey post it here you never know it might come in handy for some people here they may want to try it! seems like alot of people here are dealing with adrenal. anything is worth a shot.

I believe that part of the deal in getting the recipe is that the ingredients and the amounts remain secret. Is that correct?
That sort of bothers me because it doesn't allow itself to be open for discussion and doesn't allow anyone to discuss the ingredients or the amounts.

are you SERIOUS!?
if its such a wonderful secret recipe then they should apply for a patent like the soda companies.

I'd also be hesistant on giving anything with grape, for the same reason as raisins. Toxic to the liver.
