To Cindy Sooy - Cindy, it almost sounds like a miracle what has happened here - instant energy, reversal of signs of adrenal disease, regaining not only weight but also muscle mass..... Good nutrition is very important, but there seems to be even more going on here. I'm afraid not everything can be explained by what we know about ferret medicine and health. I would say that a higher plane of nutrition can put wight back on, perhaps even some muscle, if combined with proper exercise (there's hope for all of us yet!!!), but I have to be a bit circumspect in the rapid resolution of signs of adrenal disease. If this food is working this well for you, stick with it!!!
