Question:
With much interest, I've reread and retained your article regarding arthritic issues in dogs. I have several questions, as I wish to give my male yellow Lab the recommended natural benefits as well. What is Ee-Wah-Kee Sacred Healing Clay? Where do I purchase it? How may I purchase a copy of your book "The Healing Touch for Dogs"? I have given powdered ginger and turmeric to him since reading your article. Is that sufficient, or is the chopped ginger and turmeric root more beneficial? I have both powdered and tablet form of brewer's yeast. Is either one OK to give him?
My husband and I are "all-natural" people, so this information is of much interest and will be applied.

Answer:
Vitality Herbs and Clay distributes the natural multimineral supplement Ee-Wah-Kee or Sacred Clay (from an ancient pyrophyllite clay deposit in Oregon); you can call the Ashland, Ore., company at (888) 325-1475. I take a small amount daily myself in my homemade "elixir of life" recipe (found at my website TwoBitDog.com/DrFox). Fresh organic chopped ginger and turmeric are preferable. Brewer's yeast tablets are as good as the powder -- more expensive but a handy dog treat. My massage-therapy book (also one for cats) can be ordered from Newmarket Press, (800) 669-3903, ext. 19.
