Delilah's Megacolon Tonic FORAGE | NEW
We have run out of stock for this item.
Delilah's Megacolon Tonic is a mixture of antispasmodics, anti-inflammatories, and herbs that specifically help with absorption of nutrients, countering irritation in the gut lining, and soothing mucous membranes of the GI tract.
Plantain is a wonderful gut-motility herb, and echinacea of course is a powerful immune booster. Dandelion and milk thistle support the liver. Schisandra berry is an adaptogenic herb which has anti-inflammatory and stress-reducing effects. High vitamin C herbs like rose hips are included as well (Vitamin C helps with improvement in fecal shape and output).
Info from creator/supplier: "With virtually nothing on the market for megacolon bunnies, especially holistic/natural support, we knew we had to take matters into our own hands for our special megacolon bunny, Delilah. So, after a lot of diligent research and consultation with our mentor Lucile Moore, we developed this powerful yet gentle restorative blend specifically designed to support megacolon bunnies. While this blend is designed specifically with megacolon in mind, it can also be safely given to small pets who do not have megacolon as a digestive health support blend. This blend works best when in conjunction with our Megacolon Tablets."
NOTE: This blend is an adjunct/complementary approach to the megacolon disorder by adding nutritional support, as a lack of nutrient absorption is part of the disease process. It is NOT a substitute for medication. The most important thing is medical management and working closely with a rabbit-savvy vet who believes in megacolon as a diagnosis/congenital disease.
