Re: PWS herbal formula ingredients as requested: Yes, thank you for the encouragement.. I really don't know how long Timmy will choose to be on the earth but that really applies to all of us, doesn't it....>? I can identify with his struggle and maybe it's a healing process that we both are going thru. Another time I'll talk about his sister, 6 other cage mates and a new one I got when Timmy got out for 4 days & a lady calling in with a "found" thru the shelter couldn't keep him so Fred is my #9... Opening the cage in the eve. lets out a "herd" for some hard playing. Here's the formula as listed on the bottle. If you want some E-mail me & I'll set you up with my tel# & the form for ordering. The list is $30 & us "members" get it for $19.95 + ship. (not an advertisement, more like willing to help).: They have an 800# & accept cr. cards for orders. Ingredients: 03 purified water, Clover honey, Native extracts of Echinacea angustifolia, Siberian Ginseng, goldenseal root, Chinese red ginseng, Korean ginseng, Black walnut hulls, Licorice root, Chicory root, Hibiscus flowers, Dandelion root, Chinese cinnamon, Silica, Alfalfa herb, Elder flowers, Chamomile, Red clover blossoms, Echinacea Purpurea, Sarsaparilla root, Astragalus root, Rose petals, ginger, Ho-Shou-Wu root, Rose hips, Ginko bilboa, Eyebright, Orange peal, Damiana, Fennel seed, Green tea, Gotu kola, Cloves in natural vegetable glycerine, Potassium citrate, Black cherry concentrate, Apple concentrate, Cranberry concentrate, Pear concentrate, Potassium glycerophosphate, Glyceroborate, Lemon essential oil, Lemon juice, Grapefruit seed extract, Trace mineral complex, Potassium asparate, ascorbic acid. .. whew! I could talk for hours on what they all do, and Dr. David McClugg age seemed to have an in depth knowledge since he prescribes Chinese herbs. His info: Ofc=303-449-5335 @ Alpets clinic, Boulder, Co. Home= 303-530-1429 @ 7430 Clubhouse Rd. Boulder. His home is on his card, and he alternates between the clinic & his home for ofc. appointments. He also seemed reasonable in price, and the clinic maintains a 24 hr. Doctor ON PREMISES! Boulder is kind of a neat place like that. Having used a similar formula called Matols' KM, I know part of what the herbs do is de toxify. This let me know his black tarry stools that went to mucus type, then now to thin liquid with some small normal brown parts is the body cleaning itself of all the poisons that were accumulating. The same evolution is seen in people with cancers that go thru a healing cycle, so I saw it as a positive sign not something for further worrying. I have literally traveled thousands of miles and spent thousands of dollars in search of better health for myself and my furry family, and we're all still here, so I hope it's doing some good. My biggest fear when Timmy was out was that it would also be a loss for all the US ferrets if I never found him as I would like to bring him back to Dr. Susan in Ill. as proof that the lab's "diagnosis of having 2-3 weeks to live & treatement of no avail" was wrong. I'm glad people are learning that the AMA medicine has limits but there are other ways that do help. (AMA is great for wound & broken bones etc..) Well, enough for now, hope this helps.
