Riassunto

Did you know that a simple hormonal imbalance endangers the lives of all our pets? This imbalance triggers an immune system breakdown leaving our pets helplessly exposed to deadly disorders and catastrophic diseases. Veterinarian, Dr. Al Plechner discovered this imbalance and created a simple, lifesaving, treatment that has been proven successful time and time again. The Plechner Protocol has restored the health of over 200,000 dogs, cats, horses and even people who were “given up for dead”. This book tells his story. Written from the heart, it illustrates his passion for healing, highlights fascinating episodes from his life and, for the first time, allows his people to tell their own dramatic, true accounts of life, death, courage and commitment. As an added bonus, it also contains the Healthfully Yours Handbook, a comprehensive collection of thoughtful, therapeutic information and pet health tips concerning food allergies, environmental dangers, catastrophic diseases, safe breeding practices, diet, and nutrition; it is an entertaining and engaging, proactive guide for Whole Animal Health. “...a crisis in health and survival has developed that envelopes not just Dobermans but many breeds of dogs and cats. As the results of improper breeding become more and more evident in the growing incidence of disease, the work of dedicated people like Al Plechner becomes all that more important...not content to merely treat the symptoms of diseases. He looks for their causes. What Plechner practices, I believe, is the cutting edge of veterinary medicine...Al Plechner’s innovative research into food, allergies and hormonal relationships has had a big impact...” - William Shatner; actor, director, writer and cultural Icon
