Question and Answer
What vitamins and minerals work together?
I want to take advantage of the fact that some vitamins and minerals are better absorbed when taken with certain other vitamins and minerals. I'm already aware of the following:
Vitamin E and Selenium
Vitamin C and bioflavenoids
Vitamin D and Calcium
Are these accurate? And are there any others that I should know about? I am particularly interested in Zinc and Vitamin A.

Getting to your main question, vitamins and minerals are different. Vitamins ("vita" = life and "amine" = containing nitrogen) are organic (containing carbon, which is an element found in all living things) compounds (containing atoms of one or more different elements). Minerals are pure inorganic elements (containing atoms of the same element), meaning they are much simpler in chemical form than vitamins. All vitamins are essential or required by our bodies, whereas only some minerals are essential nutrients. Vitamins are vulnerable to heat, light, and chemical agents, so cooking, food preparation, processing, and storage must be appropriate to preserve vitamins in food. Minerals, on the other hand, are more stable to food preparation, but mineral loss can occur when they are bound to other substances in foods (such as oxalates found in spinach and tea, and phytates found in legumes and grains), making them unavailable for the body to utilize.

Blot with Alcohol until totally removed. Blot with a solution of 1/4 of a cup of liquid HAND dish washing detergent per cup of lukewarm water. Blot with lukewarm water with a white towel. Blot dry with a dry WHITE absorbent towel. Apply a one-half inch layer of WHITE (no printing) paper towels to the affected area and weight down with a flat heavy object and remove the next day.
After you remove the stain, the smell should start to go away also. Keep the room well ventilated, and use baking soda on the area to absorb any left over residue from the vitamins. I used to use this with my son, so I know exactly what you mean!
If this doesn't work, you may have to call in a professional. Good luck!

you need to replace the protein that comes from eating meat. you can eat legumes, nuts, soy, and whole grains.

B Complex can be very helpful to our health as well as taking calcium and magnesium. I would recommend checking with your doctor as well to see what they say.

you can find some great multi vitimans at most health food stores and in alot of places there is pet stores that only carry healthy natural type foods… glucosamine is great for the joints….Supplements are scientifically balanced formulas rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, enzymes and essential fatty acids… it will let you know on the bottles how much to give according to your dogs weight… good luck… smile
Feed human quality food: broil or bake beef, poultry or fish. Pork can be too fatty and cause pancreatitis. No salty or sweet lunch meats. That’s junk food for your dog! Add veggies to your mixture: about 2/3 meat to 1/3 veggies, preferably fresh or frozen. If you cook the vegetables with meat, it will possess the flavor that they love. Dogs need greens: spinach, kale, broccoli and the like. Maintain a variety. Wolves, foxes and coyotes periodically nibble on grasses and they eat the stomach contents of prey animals, so this is an important component of a healthy canine diet.
You must feed a multivitamin if you are going to home cook. We recommend a very palatable multivitamin by Vetri-science. you can purchase a good quality product at one of the natural pet food stores that we recommend on our referral list. Don’t just go to a generic pet store; many of the products sold there are sadly deficient and will not provide your dog with the supplements that he or she needs.
Flax Seed Oil provides essentials oils. Very small breed: 1/2 tsp/day, med. breed: 1 tsp, very large breeds: 1 tbsp. Keep refrigerated and introduce slowly to avoid diarrhea. Some pets like garlic and a small amount of salt. Play with spices to find what your pet prefers. Like us, they relish variety!
You can make large quantities and freeze this concoction. Partition it into meal size baggies for convenience.
If you aren’t willing to home cook, canned food tends to be a healthier choice overall than dry food. They usually contain fewer grain products. I know that’s the very opposite statement that you’ve heard from most veterinarians in the past, but research conducted in the field of nutrition has changed my viewpoint considerably. Most dry food is bound together by grains.
4 brands that we recommend, #1 being favorite on down the list (based on their list of ingredients):
Wellness (canned)
Innova Evo (dry) *
Wysong (need multivitamin)
Pet Guard
* Innova Evo contains no grains, so it’s a nice substitute for owners that don’t like to feed canned food.
