Golden Paste for Cancer
Cancer has many causes… .diet, genetic, toxins, hormones… .in preventing and treating it you need many modalities.
One of the key ways many dog owners are doing this is with combination supplements, including essential fatty acids, antioxidants, mushrooms, 95% curcumin, colostrum.
My dog Tula gets a supplement including ALL of these nutrients 🙂 There in our Advanced Formula here
What is Golden Paste?
Is golden paste the golden ticket?
This concoction has been used as an anti-inflammatory and antioxidant and to treat and prevent a variety of things, most commonly osteoarthritis and cancer in people. Dr. Wynn says, “Golden paste is often recommended for dogs with osteoarthritis, cancer, and chronic inflammatory conditions." Curcumin is thought to be the primary active compound in turmeric and has been widely studied, although there are dozens of other unique bioactive active compounds within the turmeric rhizome.
Here is the usual recipe. Combine and then gently heat:
- ½ cup powdered turmeric
- 1 cup water
- 1 ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Dogs tend to find this paste very palatable, and the recommended dose in dogs is variable. It ranges from ¼ teaspoon to 1 tablespoon by mouth daily, divided if desired, and is dependent on the size of the dog and the condition being treated.
Directions
Mix the turmeric with the water in a pan, starting with 1 cup water and adding more only if needed. Stir the liquid on medium/low heat and in about 7 to 10 minutes, it should form a thick paste. If your paste looks watery, just add a bit more turmeric and heat it for another couple of minutes.
Once you’ve got a paste, add the pepper and oil, then stir it very well.
Allow the mixture to cool, then place it in a jar with a lid and store it in your fridge. Ideally, you should store the paste for no more than two weeks … after that, you’ll want to make a fresh batch.
Cautions
Contraindications for using turmeric and golden paste include patients undergoing surgery; patients with gallbladder disease, surgical patients, diabetes mellitus, gastroesophageal reflux disease, hormone-sensitive tumors and iron absorption problems. It is also contraindicated in males patients who need to maintain normal testosterone production and sperm motility.
P.S. I tried making the ‘Golden Paste’, and it is very concentrated, so Tula refused to eat it.
I then thought ‘why not’ use it in a curry, but there is SO MUCH Turmeric, that my family refused to eat it 🙁
I did have clients using it, but I think the key is to give a small amount, 1/4 teaspoon/10lbs daily, and mix it well with your dog’s food.
