** DONNA'S COMMENTS **
So many of you responded to our request for website suggestions. Thank you
so much! We have implemented many of them and are working on others. Here are
some of the changes we've made:
*New navigation bar top and bottom of each page with a "rough" of
a logo.
*Made Home Page selections easier to see for each topic.
http://www.theherbsplace.com
*Changed the colors - Pets area really looks different :-)
http://www.theherbsplace.com/pets.html
*Split the Shopping page up into 8 different pages, so they load faster.
http://www.theherbsplace.com/shop.html
*Made a printable order form for those who want to mail in orders:

Again, thank you for taking the time to help us make "The Herbs Place"
the place for herbs and supplements. We appreciate each of you!

** HEALTH/HERBAL INFO **
SKIN ALLERGIES?
You first need to rule out Hypothyroidism or any other underlying disease
process. Then you go to work on building a healthy immune system. For skin problems
which aren't associated with an ongoing disease essential fatty acids deficiency
have proven useful. Also the addition of certain amino
acids many of which are present in raw beef have been very effective in reducing
irration of dry, flaky skin.

** SUCCESS STORY **
"My male cat was diagnosed with diabetes just over a year ago. I was shocked
and immediately felt the only reason for it was the vet food he was eating.
After giving him insulin shots for 2 months I decided I didn't like what the
shots were doing to him. I am an independent distributor for Sunrider and decided
if Sunrider herbal foods were good for me, they were good for my cat.
I have been feeding him cat food from the health food store, along with table
foods I eat. I mix Sunrider's Sunnectar (which is a good quality Stevia), SportsCaps
(which is Bee Pollen, Ginseng, and other herbs), Vitamin C and Evergreen (Chlorophyll
and other herbs) and NuPlus, (high carbohydrate of beans and other herbs) into
his food.
He has made a remarkable recovery and is a happy cat. He has gone from dragging
his back legs to jumping and he no longer desires constant water.
His back legs are not perfect but at least he can jump again. I have just started
massaging his back and his legs and am hopeful with the added
food-grade herbs I'm giving him, his leg muscles will continue to strengthen."

HERB USAGE TIPS:
We have used herbs and supplements with pets since 1982 and that was before
there was a market for "natural pet products." We've always adapted
to the pet. Want more info on administering herbs to your pets?
