There is a well-known story in the Buddhist tradition about a lute player who was learning the art of meditation. After a while, he got discouraged with his practice and went to the Buddha to seek instruction.
佛教中有一個著名的故事，講述一位琵琶琴手正在學習冥想的藝術。過了一段時間，他對自己的練習感到沮喪，便去拜訪佛祖尋求指導。
“Think about your lute,” the Buddha said. “What happens when you string it too tightly?”
"想一想你的琵琶，"佛祖說，"當你把琴弦拉得太緊時會發生什麼事？"
“The strings break,” said the lute player.
"琴弦會斷。"琵琶琴手回答道。
“And too loosely?”
"如果太鬆呢？"
“It can’t produce any sound.”
"那就無法發出聲音了。"
“Yes,” explained the Buddha. “A string needs to be balanced between tight and loose to produce beautiful sound. That is how to practice – not to tight and not too loose.”
"無錯。"佛祖解釋道，"琴弦需要在緊和鬆之間平衡才能發出動聽的聲音。這就是修行的方法 - 既不要太緊也不要太鬆。"
The same is true for the immune system of a dog or cat. If it is wound too tight – overactive – it will produce symptoms such as allergies and painful, itchy skin. If it is wound too loose – underactive – it will leave your pet vulnerable to repeated health challenges.
對於狗或貓的免疫系統也是一樣的道理。如果它過於緊張 - 過度活躍 - 它會產生過敏和疼痛、發癢的皮膚等症狀。如果它太鬆弛 - 過度不活躍 - 它會讓你的寵物容易發生反覆的健康問題。
Too many pets face this very situation. Immune imbalance, which presents as immune dysfunction, is the single most common reason my patients visit me.
太多寵物都面對這種情況。免疫系統失衡，會被視為免疫功能異常，係寵物睇獸醫最常見的原因之一。
If this is happening with your pet, I have good news for you…
如果你的寵物正在出現這種情況，我有一個好消息話你知...
Your pet’s well-being doesn’t need to be ruled by a mixed-up immune system. You can help restore immune balance in your pet and support vibrant health.
你寵物的健康不需要被混亂的免疫系統所支配。你可以幫助恢復寵物的免疫平衡，令其重拾健康。
Maybe you can even reduce the number of unnecessary visits to your vet, saving you time and money – and your pet needless stress.
你甚至可以減少不必要的睇獸醫次數，節省你的時間和金錢，以及減輕你寵物的壓力。
While many herbs and nutrients may stimulate immune function, choosing the wrong ones can throw a pet suffering with allergies or autoimmune issues into a potentially dangerous tizzy. The last thing you want to do is stimulate an already confused immune system.
雖然很多草藥和營養素可以刺激免疫功能，但選擇錯誤的產品可能會讓患有過敏或自體免疫問題的寵物陷入潛在的危險狀態。你最不想做的就是刺激已經混亂的免疫系統。
It’s important to be thoughtful and careful. It’s all about balance…
因此，謹慎和小心是非常重要的。一切都在於平衡...
My 4-Point Approach for an Effective Immune Harmonizing Formula
有效的免疫調和配方的四個重點方法
If there’s one thing I’ve learned about immune function, it’s that it takes a delicate dance to get it just right.
我對免疫功能的了解的一件事，就係需要一個微妙的平衡才能達到最佳狀態。
As I just pointed out about Echinacea, while it is a well-known herb for immune support, it can be a catastrophic choice for the wrong pet – or wrong condition. And there are many other potentially problematic options, like Echinacea…
正如我剛剛提到的紫錐花一樣，雖然它是一種廣為人知用於支援免疫系統的草藥，但如果用於錯誤的寵物或錯誤的病徵，它可能是一個災難性的選擇。還有很多其他如紫錐花般會有潛在問題的選擇...
So, how do I choose what to use for my feline and canine patients? Here’s my 4-point criteria for picking the right substances to help balance immune function:
那麼，我如何為我的貓狗患者選擇合適的產品？以下是我選擇合適物質來幫助平衡免疫功能的四點標準：
- Must be very safe and unable to do harm, no matter the condition
必須非常安全，無論病情如何都不能造成傷害。 - Must support all conditions related to immune function
必須支援所有與免疫功能相關的病情。 - Must encourage the immune system to behave normally
必須促進免疫系統正常運作。 - Must have a balancing effect and be able to restore homeostasis
必須具有平衡作用，能夠恢復免疫系統的平衡狀態。
That’s a tall order, but it’s critical to meet every point.
雖然要求很高，但必須滿足每一點都是至關重要的。
Over the years, I have found four substances that stand out for their ability to promote immune balance, no matter whether the immune system is underactive or on overdrive. And the key is to combine these four together to create a synergistic formula that provides total immune balance.
多年來，我發現有四種物質在促進免疫平衡方面表現出色，無論免疫系統是過度活躍還是不活躍。關鍵在於將這四種物質結合在一起，創建一個協同作用的配方，提供全面的免疫平衡。
All four of these ingredients have withstood the test of time in my practice. Some of them, as you’ll soon see, come with a treasure trove of exciting research, too.
這四種成份都經過的長時間實踐。你很快就會見到其中一些有大量令人興奮的研究成果。
Let’s take a look at the first of these four substances… a unique type of fiber from a tree.
依家就睇下這四種物質中的第一種……一種來自樹木的獨特類型的纖維。
Here’s How Natural Larch Tree Extract Supports Your Pet’s Cellular and Gut Health
以下是天然落葉松樹提取物如何支援你寵物的細胞和腸道健康的介紹
A pet’s gut is full of beneficial bacteria that help him break down the food he eats so he can use it for energy and essential body functions. Keeping those bacteria healthy helps protect his health and vitality.
寵物的腸道充滿了有益的細菌，這些細菌幫助牠分解食物，使其能夠轉化成能量和用於身體必要功能。保持這些細菌的健康有助於保護寵物的健康和活力。
One of the best ways to do this is to provide food for the beneficial bacteria. Scientists call this food “prebiotics.”
其中一種最好的方法是透過食物攝取有益的細菌。科學家把這種食物稱為「益生元」。
Arabinogalactans are a special type of digestible, or soluble, fiber that act as prebiotics.
阿拉伯半乳聚糖是一種特殊的可消化或可溶性纖維，可以作為益生元。
This fiber is found in many different vegetables and plants, but when doing studies, researchers prefer to use arabinogalactan from Western larch trees for two simple reasons:
這種纖維存在於許多不同的蔬菜和植物中，但在進行研究時，研究人員更喜歡使用西部落葉松樹的阿拉伯半乳糖聚糖，原因很簡單：
It’s far more concentrated than food or herb-based sources, and it’s a natural extract, not a drug.
它比源自食物或草藥的更加濃縮，並且是一種天然提取物，而不是藥物。
To get the same amount of arabinogalactan researchers have used in studies, your pet would need to eat the equivalent of a full pound of arabinogalactan-containing foods like carrots, corn and pears – something I clearly don’t recommend for dogs or cats.
如果要獲得研究中使用的相同量的阿拉伯半乳聚糖，你的寵物需要食用相當於一磅阿拉伯半乳聚糖含量食物的量，例如胡蘿蔔、玉米和梨子——都係明顯我唔建議給狗或貓食的。
There’s even more arabinogalactan in larch tree extract than highly prized shiitake mushrooms, another rich source.
落葉松樹提取物中的阿拉伯半乳聚糖甚至比另一個來源，高價值的香菇，還要多。
Perhaps that’s why Native Americans have used bark from this unique deciduous conifer for hundreds of years…
也許這就是為什麼數百年來美洲原住民一直使用這種獨特落葉針葉樹的樹皮的原因...
So, what benefits can larch arabinogalactans potentially provide for your pet?
那麼落葉松的阿拉伯半乳聚糖可為你的寵物提供哪些好處呢？
Once this prebiotic fiber enters your pet’s gut, it begins to ferment. This valuable fermentation process produces short-chain fatty acids that help:
這種益生元纖維進入你寵物的腸道後，就會開始發酵。這個寶貴的發酵過程產生了短鏈脂肪酸，有助於：
- Protect your pet’s intestinal lining.
保護你寵物的腸道內璧。 - Support colon health.
支持結腸健康。 - Promote a healthy normal inflammatory response.
促進對炎症的正常健康反應。 - Produce butyrate, a substance that promotes healthy cell growth.
產生丁酸鹽，這是一種促進健康細胞生長的物質。 - Fuel the growth of beneficial probiotic bacteria.
促進有益的益生菌生長。 - Activate important immune cells – macrophages and natural killer (NK) cells.
激活重要的免疫細胞——巨噬細胞和自然殺手細胞(NK細胞)。
Larch arabinogalactans can strengthen your pet’s foundation for health by encouraging the growth of the beneficial bacteria in his gut. But that’s not the only benefit larch extract can provide…
落葉松中的阿拉伯半乳聚糖可以通過促進寵物腸道中有益細菌的生長，從而增強其健康基礎。但這不是落葉松提取物可以提供的唯一好處...
Pets Get Leaky Gut, Too, and Traditional Veterinary Treatments Can Make It Worse
寵物也會患上漏腸症，傳統的獸醫治療可能會使情況變得更糟
Itchy skin and ears, and other allergic signs, are some of the most common complaints I hear from pet parents. Sadly, skin issues have even become a top reason for euthanizing dogs today.
瘙癢的皮膚和耳朵，以及其他過敏症狀，是我聽到寵物主人最普遍的抱怨之一。可悲的是，皮膚問題竟成為今天替狗狗進行安樂死的主要原因之一。
Traditional veterinarians tend to look only on the surface – and treat accordingly.
傳統的獸醫往往只關注表面症狀，然後進行相應的治療。
I’ve learned to look much deeper…
我學會了更深入地觀察...
The root cause of many allergy symptoms can be traced to your pet’s microbiome – the unique collection of bacteria that resides in her intestines.
許多過敏症狀的根本原因可以追溯到你寵物的微生物群——定居於其腸道的不同的獨特細菌。
A whopping 70% of your pet’s immune system lives in her gut. So, if your pet’s microbiome isn’t up to par, her immune health is likely to suffer.
你寵物的免疫系統高達70％存在於其腸道中。因此，如果你寵物的微生物群達不到標準，牠的免疫健康很可能會受到影響。
That’s why traditional treatments often don’t work for these types of symptoms. In fact, many of these treatments are likely to make things worse, as they can damage or upset the delicate balance in your pet’s gut flora.
這正正解釋到點解傳統治療通常對這類症狀無效。事實上，好多呢類型嘅療方法好可能會令情況變壞，因為它們可能會損害或破壞你寵物腸道菌叢的微妙平衡。
When your pet’s beneficial bacteria become unbalanced, dysbiosis and a condition called leaky gut can develop.
當你寵物的有益細菌失衡時，就可能會出現菌群失調和漏腸症等情況。
With leaky gut, the connections between the cells in your pet’s gut lining loosen. This creates openings that can allow rogue substances, toxins and undigested food to leak through and enter her bloodstream – something that is not supposed to happen.
漏腸症會使你寵物的腸道內層細胞之間的聯繫變得鬆散。這會創造出開口，允許異常的物質、毒素和未消化的食物滲漏進入血液循環系統 - 這是不應該發生的。
As these foreign invaders circulate in your pet’s body, her immune system can over-react, leading to inflammation, joint discomfort, a worsening of allergy symptoms and a host of health issues.
當這些外來侵略者在你寵物的身體中循環時，牠的免疫系統可能會過度反應，導致發炎、關節不適、過敏症狀加劇以及一系列健康問題。
Larch arabinogalactans and the short-chain fatty acids they produce can play important roles in protecting the mucosal cells in your pet’s intestinal lining – helping to balance and vitalize the immune response throughout your pet’s body. Arabinogalactans are especially useful for immunodeficient animals.
落葉松阿拉伯半乳聚糖及其產生的短鏈脂肪酸在保護你寵物的腸道內層黏膜細胞方面發揮著重要作用，有助於平衡和活化寵物全身的免疫反應。阿拉伯半乳聚糖特別適用於免疫缺陷動物。
The Perfect Food for Mammals – Not Only Newborns, but Cats and Dogs of All Ages
哺乳動物的完美食物——不僅適用於初生嬰兒，還適用於各個年齡階段的貓狗
Within the first few hours of a baby mammal’s birth, its mother begins producing a special milk called colostrum.
在哺乳動物初生幾個小時之內，母親開始分泌一種特殊的乳汁，稱為初乳。
Colostrum is a sort of super-concentrated milk. It provides vital nutrients like vitamins, electrolytes and the natural antibodies a baby mammal needs to support his not yet fully developed immune system.
初乳是一種超濃縮的乳汁，它提供了重要的營養素，如維他命、電解質和天然抗體，這些都係用來支持哺乳類嬰兒其尚未完全發育的免疫系統的。
It’s Mother Nature’s way of supplying what’s known as passive immunity to jump-start the newborn’s immature immune system…
這是大自然提供所謂的被動免疫力的方式，以啟動初生嬰兒尚未成熟的免疫系統...
However, researchers are discovering what Ayurvedic and other early practitioners have known for centuries:
然而，研究人員發現阿育吠陀 (來自五千年前印度的傳統醫學) 和其他早期從業者對這事實的認知已有數世紀之久：
Colostrum may provide important benefits for adult mammals too.
初乳對成年哺乳動物也可能提供重要的益處。
There are over 1,000 clinical studies documenting the potential benefits of colostrum – specifically bovine or cow colostrum.
有超過1,000篇臨床研究記錄了初乳的潛在好處 - 特別是乳牛初乳。
Why bovine colostrum? Researchers have found that:
點解係乳牛初乳？研究人員發現：
- It acts as a universal donor for all mammals, meaning it can potentially benefit humans as well as dogs and cats.
它適合所有哺乳動物，這意味著它可能對人類以及狗和貓等動物都有益。 - The immune and growth factors in cow’s colostrum are nearly identical to those in humans.
乳牛初乳中的免疫和生長因子與人類的幾乎相同。 - It is up to 100 or even 1000 times more potent than human colostrum, making it an outstanding choice for any mammal.
它的功效甚至比人類的初乳強100到1000倍，因此對於任何哺乳動物來說都是一個上佳的選擇。
Even though colostrum is an animal product, I feel good about using it with my pet patients because I know that cows produce more colostrum than any other domestic animal, and it can be obtained in a humane manner.
儘管初乳是一種動物產品，但對使用它來治療寵物病人感到放心，因為乳牛產生的初乳比任何其他家畜都多，而且可以以人道方式獲得。
7 Ways Bovine Colostrum Can Support Your Pet’s Immune System
7種利用乳牛初乳去支持你寵物免疫系統的方式
Bovine colostrum can provide a multitude of benefits for your pet’s immune and gastrointestinal health.
乳牛初乳對你寵物的免疫和腸道健康可以提供多種益處。
Full of vitamins, minerals and special immune supporting proteins, it also strengthens your pet’s gut and helps build a healthy microbiome.
乳牛初乳充滿維他命、礦物質和特殊的免疫支持蛋白質，它還可以增強你寵物的腸道，幫助建立健康的微生物群。
Here are just seven ways bovine colostrum can help your pet achieve better health:
以下是乳牛初乳可以幫助你寵物實現更好健康的七種方式：
- A hormone in colostrum called Proline-Rich Polypeptide (PRP) helps balance immune function – it can help support an under-active immune system or calm one that’s overly active.
初乳入面嘅一種荷爾蒙，叫做富脯氨酸多肽（PRP），可以平衡免疫系統嘅功能。當免疫系統唔夠活躍時，佢可以相對作出支持，相反當同免疫系統過度活躍時就會作出鎮定嘅功能。 - Containing important immune factors, like lactoferrin and immunoglobulins, including IgG, it supports the body’s protective functions against invaders and toxin buildup.
初乳入面含有重要嘅免疫因子，例如乳鐵蛋白同埋免疫球蛋白，包括IgG，可以支持身體對抗侵略者同埋毒素積聚嘅保護功能。 - Its growth ` helps boost cell, tissue, and organ repair to help reduce the signs of cellular aging.
初乳可以促進細胞、組織同器官嘅生長，有助於修復，減少細胞老化嘅跡象。 - Loaded with nutrients that help seal the gastrointestinal tract lining.
初乳含有豐富營養素，可以幫助密封胃腸道內膜。 - It contains probiotics, another important element in a healthy gut microbiome.
初乳含有益生菌，係維持腸道微生物健康的重要元素之一。 - Its cytokines promote healthy cellular growth and a healthy inflammatory response.
初乳內嘅細胞激素可以促進細胞健康生長，同埋維持正常嘅反應對抗發炎。 - Growth factors in colostrum promote healthy tissues and cellular repair.
初乳入面嘅生長因子可以促進健康嘅組織同細胞嘅修復。
Colostrum is full of nutrients with potential benefits for your dog or cat. Some of these nutritional factors are not produced by your pet’s body and must be provided through diet. These include 17 essential amino acids, glyconutrients that support white blood cell activity and essential fatty acids.
初乳充滿營養素，對狗同貓都有潛在好處。其中一些營養因子係寵物體內唔會自行產生，需要透過飲食攝取，包括17種必需氨基酸、支持白血球活動嘅糖醣營養素同埋必需脂肪酸。
With the current state of commercial pet food, I highly recommend supplementing your pet’s diet with bovine colostrum. Even if you feed your pet a nutritionally balanced fresh food diet, she can still experience benefits from this exceptional nutritional supplement.
鑑於現今商業寵物食品嘅現況，強烈建議添加牛初乳作為寵物飲食嘅補充品。即使你餵飼寵物均衡營養嘅新鮮食品，佢都可以從這款特殊嘅營養補充品中獲益。
However, make sure it comes from healthy cows that are not fed synthetic hormones or routine antibiotics.
不過，請確保初乳來自健康嘅牛隻，唔係食用人造荷爾蒙或慣性使用抗生素嘅牛隻。
A Blockbuster Superfood: Moringa Oleifera is a Nutritional Goldmine for You and Your Pet
超級食品：辣木（Moringa Oleifera）對你同你嘅寵物來講係一個營養寶庫
Moringa is one of the hottest botanicals to hit the market in recent years.
辣木係近年嚟市面上最熱門嘅植物之一。
Only it’s not new…
不過，佢並唔係新嘅……
I’ve been using it extensively for years in dogs and cats. And it has a long, colorful history of use on two continents.
我已經喺狗同貓身上廣泛應用辣木好多年，佢喺兩個洲上都有好悠久、豐富嘅使用歷史。
Native to Southern India and Northern Africa, Moringa Oleifera has been used by the local people for multiple health purposes, both for themselves and for their animals. A hearty and nourishing leafy green, they also use it for food.
辣木原產於印度南部同北非，當地人民喺自己同埋寵物身上都廣泛應用，辣木有多種健康用途。辣木葉係一種豐富營養嘅蔬菜，當地人都會食用。
Ayurveda practitioners list more than 300 different uses for Moringa, from supporting the immune system to promoting a healthy normal inflammatory response.
阿育吠陀醫生列出咗超過300個辣木嘅用途，包括支持免疫系統同埋促進對炎症作出正常嘅反應。
Most of all, Moringa is a bomb of a superfood. A true nutritional powerhouse, Moringa has:
最重要嘅係，辣木係一種超級食品，營養豐富，喺營養價值方面提供一個強大嘅力量，其中包括：
- Three times the beta carotene (vitamin A) of carrots.
比蘿蔔多3倍的β-胡蘿蔔素（維他命A） - Nine times the protein of yogurt.
比乳酪多9倍的蛋白質 - 12 times the vitamin C of oranges.
比橙多12倍的維他命C - 15 times the potassium of bananas.
比香蕉多15倍的鉀 - 17 times the calcium of milk.
比牛奶多17倍的鈣 - 26 times the iron of spinach.
比菠菜多26倍的鐵 - 50 times the vitamin B2 of sardines.
比沙甸魚多50倍的維他命B2
Many parts of the Moringa, or Malunggay, tree are used, but its dried leaves offer the greatest value as a supplement. A rarity in the plant world, they contain complete proteins and more than 90 bioavailable nutrients and 46 antioxidants.
辣木嘅不同部位都有用途，但係以乾燥咗嘅葉子為補充品嘅價值最高。葉子係植物界中少有嘅完整蛋白質來源，含有超過90種易吸收嘅營養素同埋46種抗氧化物質。
Because of Moringa’s potential for health, the National Geographic Society and the National Science Foundation are supporting on-going research into its traits and actions. In 2007, the National Institutes of Health recognized it as the Botanical of the Year.
由於辣木對健康嘅潛力，美國國家地理學會同埋國家科學基金會都支持持續研究佢嘅特性同埋作用。2007年，美國國立衛生研究院將佢評選為當年嘅植物。
Far from being just the latest nutritional fad, the World Health Organization (WHO) and European Union now plants and cultivates this exceptional tree in different locations, including Africa, in order to help combat malnutrition.
辣木唔單止係最新嘅營養潮流，世界衛生組織同埋歐洲聯盟而家都喺不同地點，包括非洲種植同埋培植辣木，以幫助對抗營養不良。
Moringa offers the same benefits for animals as it does for humans. Let’s take a look at what makes it potentially so valuable for your pet.
辣木對於動物同樣有益，而家就嚟睇下邊啲因素令佢對你嘅寵物有潛在價值。
This Mineral-Rich Ingredient Delivers a Dynamic Variety of Benefits for Your Pet’s Immune Health
含豐富礦物質的成份為你寵物的免疫健康帶來多種好處
Moringa is a valuable whole food supplement because it’s exceptional at supporting immune function.
辣木係一種寶貴嘅全能食物補充品，因為佢對支持免疫功能有意想不到嘅能力。
It’s a boon for pets consuming less than optimal nutrition, providing abundant nutrients to quickly boost cellular nutrition. And it’s a must for any pet coming from a shelter.
對於攝取營養不足嘅寵物來講，辣木係一個好消息，因為佢可以快速提供豐富營養素，促進細胞營養。而且，對於從收容所中出來嘅任何寵物來講，辣木都係必需品。
Because a dog or cat’s body views Moringa as food, it’s especially beneficial for sensitive patients who can’t tolerate other supplements.
因為狗同貓嘅身體會將辣木視為食物，所以對補充品敏感嘅寵物尤其有益。
In addition to its abundant vitamins and minerals, here are some other reasons I recommend Moringa for my pet patients:
除咗豐富嘅維他命同埋礦物質，以下係推介辣木俾患病寵物嘅其他原因：
- Contains chlorogenic acid, which helps slow cells’ absorption of sugar and other beneficial plant compounds, like isothiocyanates, to promote healthy, normal blood sugar levels
含有綠原酸，有助於減緩細胞吸收糖同埋其他有益嘅植物化合物，例如異硫氰酸鹽，有助於促進健康同正常嘅血糖水平 - Helps promote a healthy, balanced immune response
有助於促進健康及平衡嘅免疫反應 - Its isothiocyanates, flavonoids and phenolic acids promote a normal healthy inflammatory response, helpful for flexible and comfortable joint movement
其中嘅異硫氰酸鹽、類黃酮同埋酚酸有助於促進對炎症嘅正常健康反應，有助於關節靈活同埋舒適嘅活動能力 - It supports cardiovascular health
有助於支持心血管健康 - May help support digestive and liver health
可能有助於支持消化系統同埋肝臟健康
I’ve found Moringa to be one of the most diverse herbs on the planet. I highly recommend it for your pet for all-purpose immune support.
Dr. Karen 發現辣木係地球上最多元化嘅草藥之一，極力推薦你嘅寵物攝取，以支持全方位嘅免疫功能。
A Surprising Discovery – This Special Yeast Fermentate Offers Profound Support for Balancing Immune Function
驚人的發現 - 這種特殊的酵母發酵物對平衡免疫功能提供了奧妙的功能
You may know that I have a huge bias against yeast. I haven’t found any type of yeast to be good for animals.
你可能知道 Dr. Karen 以前對酵母有很大的偏見，因為她發現酵母對動物來說沒有任何好處。
That is, until I discovered Yeast Fermentate.
直到我發現了酵母發酵物。
Several years ago, a very well-known producer of a yeast fermentate product contacted me. They wanted me to help prove to the world that it could offer immune-balancing benefits, especially to debilitated animals.
幾年前，一家非常著名的酵母發酵物生產商聯繫 Dr. Karen，他們希望 Dr. Karen 幫手證明它對免疫平衡的好處，特別是對於虛弱的動物。
In fact, they offered to ship me thousands of dollars of their product to use on some of my sickest animals.
事實上，他們提供了數千美元的產品給我，讓我用於一些最嚴重的患病貓狗身上。
Well, you can imagine my shock and disbelief when they told me it was a yeast product… I was very skeptical.
當他們告訴我這是一種酵母產品時，你可以想象我有幾震驚同埋幾唔信任...我真係非常懷疑。
But they showed me their research and data, and I was convinced that it deserved a closer look, so I decided to give it a try.
但是，他們向我展示了他們的研究和數據，我被說服了，認為它值得更仔細地研究，所以我決定嘗試一下。
First off, I found out that this product wasn’t new. It was developed over 60 years ago to help ease the weaning stress that pigs often encounter on farms and to help factory-farmed chickens and cows endure everyday stress.
首先，我發現呢個並唔係新產品。它是在60多年前開發的，用於幫助緩解農場上豬隻往往會遇到的斷奶壓力，並幫助工廠養殖的雞和牛承受日常壓力。
What especially caught my attention during my research was that the people who worked with this yeast fermentate reported improved health.
在我的研究中特別引起我的注意的是，與這種酵母發酵物有關的人報告了健康狀況有所改善。
The research was compelling and, ultimately, led me to feel comfortable trying this yeast product with my clients. Here’s what I found:
研究非常有說服力，最終使我感到安心嘗試將這種酵母產品提供給我的客戶。以下是我的發現：
- There were no negative immunologic effects, no yeast reactions – in fact, in my clinical experience, it actually helps support body defenses against yeast.
沒有負面的免疫學影響，沒有酵母反應 - 實際上，在我的臨床經驗中，它實際上有助於支持身體對抗酵母的防禦。 - It contained no gluten.
不含麩質。 - It helped promote a normal, healthy allergic response.
有助於促進對於過敏徵狀嘅正常及健康的反應。
Most importantly, I learned that the fermentation process used to make this product cancels any of yeast’s potentially negative effects.
最重要的是，我發現用於製作這種產品的發酵過程可以消除酵母可能產生的任何負面影響。
And it did an outstanding job of supporting balanced immune function in the animals studied – as well as my own patients.
在研究的動物以及我的患者身上，它在支持平衡免疫功能方面表現出色。
Could This Special Yeast Fermentate Help Your Pet?
這種特殊的酵母發酵物能否幫助你的寵物？
You’re probably wondering… what exactly is yeast fermentate?
你可能會問... 什麼是酵母發酵物呢？
The yeast fermentate I use is a concentrated formula, made in the U.S., of vitamins, minerals, polyphenols (antioxidants) and other natural ingredients.
我使用的酵母發酵物是一種濃縮配方，由維他命、礦物質、多酚（抗氧化劑）和其他天然成分製成，美國製造。
It starts with baker’s yeast – a safe, natural organism that’s been used for many years to make breads, wine, and beer. Through an oxygen-rich process, the microorganisms multiply. The microorganisms are then put under stress to produce beneficial metabolites.
它以麵包酵母開始 - 一種安全、天然的微生物，已經用於製作麵包、葡萄酒和啤酒多年。通過富含氧氣的過程，微生物會增殖。然後這些微生物會受到壓力以產生有益的代謝物質。
The natural product that results contains a multitude of proteins, peptides, antioxidants and other nutritional compounds. It also contains wholesome beta glucans and mannans from the yeast cell wall.
最終產生的天然產品包含多種蛋白質、肽、抗氧化劑和其他營養化合物。它還包含酵母細胞壁中的健康β-葡聚醣和甘露聚醣。
In human research studies, this special yeast fermentate has been shown to help support immune function. It promotes Natural Killer (NK) cell activity and antioxidant protection within just hours of consumption.
在人類研究中，這種特殊的酵母發酵物已被證明有助於支持免疫功能。它可以在攝取後數小時內促進自然殺手細胞（NK細胞）發揮作用和抗氧化保護。
Lab studies and a human clinical study also suggest yeast fermentate acts as a prebiotic, supporting the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut.
實驗室研究和人類臨床研究也証實，酵母發酵物作為一種益生元，有助於支持腸道中有益細菌的生長。
In pets, it may help increase serum IgA levels – an important antibody for supporting normal immune function.
對於寵物來說，它可能有助於增加血清 IgA 水平 - 這是支持正常免疫功能的重要抗體。
And this was the reason I continued to order the product after my initial stock ran out – it was one of the only things my IgA deficient patients responded to.
這也是我在初始庫存用盡後繼續訂購這種產品的原因之一 - 它是我缺乏IgA的患者反應最好的唯一物品之一。
Many animals are born with less-than-ideal immune function, and this natural immune support has been a godsend for these animals.
許多動物天生的免疫功能不理想，而這種天然免疫支持對這些動物來說無疑一個好消息。
Plus, both cats and dogs like its mild flavor.

A Revolutionary, Holistic, 4-in-1 Approach to Pet Immune Health
一種革命性、全面的寵物免疫健康的四合一方法
No one has ever combined these four immune balancing compounds before – Larch Arabinogalactan, Colostrum, Organic Moringa and Yeast Fermentate.
從未有人將這四種免疫平衡化合物結合在一起 - 阿拉伯半乳聚糖、初乳、有機辣木和酵母發酵物。
Each one is exceptional in its own right. For years, I sent clients home with all four products to help achieve immune balance and relieve their pet’s complaints.
每一種都有其獨特性。多年來，Dr. Karen 會給貓狗這四種產品，以幫助實現免疫平衡和舒緩寵物的不適。
But juggling four different supplements each day can be overwhelming, so Bark & Whiskers™ Immune Support combines all four into one convenient product for optimal immune balancing support.
但每天攜帶四種不同的補充劑可能會讓人感到困擾，因此 Bark & Whiskers™ Immune Support 將這四種產品結合成一種方便的產品，對支持免疫平衡的效果盡情發揮。
