PET | TAO Soothe Bladder for Optimal Urinary System Health

PET | TAO Soothe Bladder is formulated for both dogs and cats, making urinary and bladder support easy for every pet in your family. Because cats can be selective eaters, try crushing half a tablet and mixing it into a favorite food.

Does your dog or cat:

have accidents in the house?
have dark and cloudy urine or show blood?
strain to urinate?
drink more water than usual?
licks his or her urinary openings?
Show lethargy, vomiting or won’t eat?

These bladder symptoms could be caused by a urinary tract infection or something more serious such as:

Kidney failure
Cushing's disease
Diabetes
Bladder tumor
Bladder or kidney stones
Non-infectious bladder inflammation (sterile cystitis)
A “foreign body”

Take your pet to the vet immediately if these symptoms present.
Additionally, dogs with Cushing's disease repeatedly treated with steroids or catheterized dogs are at an increased risk for E. coli-related bacterial UTIs.

A traditional veterinarian may prescribe antibiotics, urinary acidifiers, or increased water intake for UTIs.

However, a veterinarian trained in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) may recommend adding a holistic supplement, such as PET | TAO's Soothe Bladder Supplement.

Cranberry

Cranberries have a history of medicinal use dating back hundreds of years.
In 1578, herbalist Henry Lyte documented the use of cranberries to treat a variety of diseases.

Native Americans on the East Coast of the U.S. also used cranberries for medicinal purposes. In the 1840s, German scientists discovered the benefits of cranberries on the urinary tract. By the 1930s, scientists were conducting clinical trials on cranberries.

Cranberries contain a multitude of beneficial compounds and vitamins. For example, cranberries get their color from anthocyanin pigments, which have stronger antioxidant power than vitamin E. Anthocyanins are anti-inflammatory and reduce allergy symptoms.

Cranberries also contain proanthocyanidins, an antioxidant helping improve blood vessels and the delivery of oxygen to cell membranes.

A 2007 study revealed the “anti-adhesion” properties of proanthocyanidins.
Additionally, cranberries contain:

Manganese
Vitamin K
Fiber
Vitamin C
Tannins

In 1984, a study in humans and mice showed that consuming cranberry juice prevented E. coli from colonizing cell walls.

Juniper Berry

Junipers are coniferous plants ranging in size from tall trees to low-spreading shrubs.
The juniper berry is actually the female seed cone, which resembles a blueberry and may be red or orange.

Medical professionals have administered juniper berries medicinally in Europe for 200 years. Juniper berries have also historically been used to treat tapeworms, colic, urinary and gastrointestinal infections.

Juniper berries are excellent for treating UTIs. Their antibacterial and antifungal properties fight infection, while a volatile oil component of the berry, terpinen-4-ol, helps filter the kidneys. In fact, studies reveal juniper berry oil could fight bacteria and fungi resistant to antibiotics.

The berries’ diuretic effect increases urine flow, helping to flush out infection by diluting urine and washing bacteria away. Juniper berries are also anti-inflammatory, providing pain relief for bladder infections and UTIs.

The berries’ antioxidant effects have been proven in scientific studies. The oil can boost antioxidant levels in the body, including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase. Glutathione peroxidase is linked to the prevention of diseases like cancer and heart disease.

Additionally, juniper berries are rich in flavonoids and polyphenols , with strong free-radical-fighting capabilities.

Marshmallow Root

The Greek name for marshmallow root is Althea, which means “to heal.”
Not to be confused with the marshmallows we see in the grocery store, which no longer contain the plant, Greek physician Hippocrates used marshmallow root to heal wounds.

In the Middle Ages, physicians administered the plant's sap as a tea to soothe colds and sore throats. Marshmallow root is also used to treat asthma and to manage blood sugar in diabetics.

Marshmallow root is an antimicrobial, demulcent, emollient, hypoglycemic, and immunostimulant. Demulcents form a soothing film over a mucous membrane. According to one study, the demulcent property of marshmallow root soothes membranes.

Mature marshmallow roots contain up to 35% mucilage, a gelatinous solution from plant roots, making them useful for treating internal mucous membranes. The mucilage provides a protective barrier between membranes, such as the bladder lining, and irritants.

Marshmallow root also acts as a diuretic, increasing urine flow. The plant helps minimize discomfort associated with kidney stones. Marshmallow root is beneficial when combined with other diuretic herbs for kidney treatments or urinary problems.

Uva Ursi

Uva ursi, also known as Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, is a plant with leaves used for medicine. “Uva ursi” means “bear’s grape” in Latin because bears enjoy eating the fruit of the plant.

Uva ursi is known for its use in urinary tract disorders, such as kidney and bladder infections. It contains a compound called arbutin. In a high-acid urinary tract, the natural chemical compound becomes hydroquinone, an antiseptic, and glucose. The high tannin content makes the plant a member of the Heath family and is helpful for urinary tract problems, including minor bleeding in the urine.

In vitro studies using uva ursi leaf extracts demonstrate antimicrobial activity against UTI-causing organisms such as C. albicans, E. coli, S. aureus, Proteus vulgaris, and others.

Uva Ursi is antilithic. Antilithic plants help prevent the formation of stones in the urinary tract and remove those already formed. Researchers differ in their opinions on whether antilithic herbs dissolve stones or aid the body in passing them by promoting urine flow to flush kidneys.

Herbalists recommend using antilithics in conjunction with demulcent and antimicrobial herbs such as marshmallow root, which is in PET | TAO’s Soothe Bladder Supplement.

In one study, prophylactic use of uva ursi extract for a year proved effective in preventing recurrent cystitis.
