Supporting Pets with Liver Disease — and Protecting Healthy Livers🐶🐱
Dogs and cats can lose up to 70% of their liver function before showing symptoms. That means subtle changes like mildly elevated ALT, bile sludge, rising bilirubin, or gallbladder dysfunction may appear long before a pet looks sick.
One of the liver supporting supplements you should have in your toolbox - Milk thistle (silymarin) has been studied for its ability to:
• Protect liver cells from damage
• Support regeneration of injured hepatocytes
• Reduce oxidative stress
• Help normalize elevated liver enzymes
When the liver is under stress, this herb can provide powerful hepatoprotective support.
💊For healthy pets, milk thistle is often pulsed during periods of increased liver stress (medications, anesthesia, pesticide exposure). Typical dosing is 5–10 mg/kg/day for dogs and 2–5 mg/kg/day for cats (standardized silymarin).
Today at 12pm EDT we’re discussing the hidden liver and gallbladder issues more and more pets are facing, what bloodwork is really telling us, and the supplements you can use early to support liver health.
