Addison's Disease in Dogs
Addison's Disease is the name given to an under active adrenal cortex which
is the outer part of the adrenal gland.
The adrenal gland fails to produce enough natural cortisone.
The exact causes are unknown but over-use of prednisone or other steroid therapies or excessive vaccinations have been blamed for this problem.
Addison's disease is irreversible but given the correct diet and associated nutrients the degeneration can be slowed considerably.
Herbisone is a must for this problem. It helps by stimulating the pituitary gland into directing the adrenal gland to produce more natural cortisone.
