I know you've got the fish oil wafers, but do you plan on coming out with any other products? Seems this could be a big market to tap into with quality and low cost products.
I just found out my dog has cancer. Most likely lymphoma and possibly leukemia. He started chemo today and I've been looking for supplements that I can give him to help boost his immune system while he's going through this treatment for the next 6 months. I'm giving him 3 tablespoons of flax seed oil a day. I was going to start him on some milk thistle, but was hoping someone else could recommend other supplements and dosages to help.
Thanks

Theanine has been shown to increase uptake of chemotherapy agents in cancer cells specifically.
Curcumin - tons of abstracts out there
Green Tea / EGCG - tons of abstracts, the number of pathways are in the dozens
NAC + EGCG - bond together to make an uber cancer fighter

thanks for that, however 5 days after my dogs 1st chemo treatment we had to put him down. He went from having no signs of cancer to getting chemo and going through the worst week of his life, and finally we had to make the decision to put him to sleep. We spent 8 hours at the vets with him until it was obvious he wasn't going to make it. We held him and talked to him as the vet gave him the sedative and anesthetic. Aside from feeling guilty for choosing chemo and feeling like we made our dog suffer and die sooner then he should have, at least we were able to comfort him and put him at ease before he passed.

Damn man, I am sorry to hear that--as a dog-lover/owner myself. That's a hard loss.
