TF-Defense by PetAlive treats Lyme Disease and other tick-borne illnesses.

TF-Defense can be used:

• In the treatment of acute Lyme Disease or other tick borne diseases in pets.
• TF-Defense may be used on its own, or along with conventional veterinarian treatment.

TF-Defense combines herbal and homeopathic ingredients which are known to assist in the effective treatment of Lyme Disease and other tick borne illnesses in pets.

It will also help to strengthen immune system functioning to help your pet fight against the infection.

TF-Defense, and companion remedies, are a natural alternative to the lengthy antibiotic treatment often prescribed for the treatment of Lyme Disease - which often leads to a weakening of the immune system and other related health problems.

However, TF-Defense may also be used along with conventional veterinarian treatment for Lyme Disease and other tick-borne illnesses.

Ingredients
Carduus marianus (Milk Thistle) is regarded as one of the most important herbal liver tonics and restoratives. Medical use of Milk Thistle may be traced back more than 2000 years. More recently, Milk Thistle has been subject to many clinical trials which clearly demonstrate its effectiveness. Scientific analysis of Milk Thistle shows that it contains a flavonoid complex called silymarin, which is largely responsible for the medical benefits of this herb. Silymarin is a powerful anti-oxidant and can block the entrance of toxins into the liver and remove toxins at the cellular level, thereby resulting in regeneration of liver cells and improved liver functioning. This would have a direct impact on overall systemic health as the liver is one of the most important organs in the body and is often affected by Lyme Disease which leads to further weakening of the system.
Crotalus hor. (C200) is a proven homeopathic remedy which is very effective for the treatment of any illness that includes hemorrhage as well as severe septic infections, especially when there is a breakdown of red blood cells (leading to severe strain on the liver and possible jaundice.)
China (C6) is a homeopathic remedy well known for its beneficial effect on fever and exhaustion, especially following illness or severe fluid loss. It is also a very effective remedy for malaria.
Ferrum Phosphate C6 (Ferrum Phos.) is one of the most important biochemic tissue salts to use when there is any infection or inflammation in the body. It helps to distribute iron and oxygen throughout the body, strengthen cell walls and fight infection.
Aconite (C6) A homeopathic remedy which is often used to treat conditions of shock and anxiety. It is also prescribed for otherwise healthy pets who develop a sudden illness of acute nature, often accompanied by fever, fear, anxiety and panic attacks.

Chronic Tick-borne illness: Tick-borne illness, especially Lyme Disease often becomes chronic and may persist for months and even years. Continued treatment would be symptomatic and also supportive of immune system functioning.

In the case of chronic illness, we strongly recommend PetAlive Immunity and Liver Support, PetAlive Energy Tonic and PetAlive Muscle and Joint Support, depending on your pet's specific needs.

In the case of acute illness, the use of TF-Defense often results in rapid results within a few hours or days.

Treatment should be continued for 7 days after the disappearance of the acute stage of the illness. This can be followed by supportive treatment with Immunity and Liver Support capsules as well as other remedies like Energy Tonic or Muscle and Joint Support capsules, depending on your pet's needs.
