Lily's story · Seizures · 2024

“I ordered Nzymes and thought, what can it hurt?” Seventy-three days without a seizure.

Lily, a Golden Retriever from Sooke, British Columbia, started having seizures three days after a leptospirosis shot. Her blood panel found nothing, and medication didn't help. Her mom changed the food, started Nzymes, and wrote to us 73 days after Lily's last seizure.

“I started a chat with Kara and found out
I was chatting to a real person.”

– P. Patterson, Lily's mom · Sooke, BC

Three days after a leptospirosis shot.

"Lily started having seizures in May 2023, three days after a leptospirosis shot. This was so horrible for me to watch her go through it. I brought her to the vet and they did a blood panel. They found nothing wrong there. She then had another seizure a few weeks later and continued to get worse.

I started her on medication, but nothing changed. She kept having episodes every few weeks to days apart. My vet wanted me to start a different medication. It was expensive and I was skeptical about it. I searched online for seizure causes, and what can help. Nzymes kept popping up."

She found out she was chatting to a real person.

"I researched it, and started a chat with Kara and found out I was chatting to a real person. There was no high pressure sales, I just read the testimonials. I ordered Nzymes and thought, 'what can it hurt?'

I changed the dog food and started the Nzymes. Within a week she seemed to have more spunk and I liked that. She went 63 days without a seizure, then had one, but it was calm and no serious after effects! I chatted again with Kara about this. At her recommendation, I increased the Nzymes I was giving her. It has now been 73 days without one! I love this stuff, it has changed my dog's life!"

If your dog is already on an anti-convulsant, don't stop or change it on your own. Lily's mom started the Nzymes while Lily was still on hers. Nutrition can begin while your dog is still on medication, and many of the families we work with do both as they gradually step down. If that is where you are, book a free consultation and we will talk it through with you.

And now a healthy, happy Luke.

"I now give it to my boy Luke, who is 7 and has a dysplastic hip. He's really loving it. And whenever I need it, Kara is so helpful and informative."

A note from us, as it ran under her letter: vaccine reactions are common. The carriers and preservatives in a vaccine can be recognized by the body as a toxin and set off an immune response, anything from soreness and fever to swollen limbs and, as in Lily's case, seizures. Whenever your dog is due for vaccines, we recommend doubling the daily Treats or Granules for the week before and one to two weeks after. The antioxidant enzymes help the body flush toxins. That is no guarantee, but it is a common-sense step. More in Vaccinating Your Dog.

What Lily and Luke's family used

Treats and Granules, every day.

For seizures today we recommend the Back to Balance Bundle: the Treats for the body's own defenses, Tracite Minerals for what most dog food leaves out, and an interactive guide sent to your inbox. Lily's mom changed the food first. Diet is one of the first things we talk about on a consult; our recommended foods guide shows what to look for.

For your dog

Lily's family started with a chat and a change of food.
The Back to Balance Program walks you through both.

Every order comes with our 120-Day Worry-Free Guarantee, free customer care from a small family team, and formulas built on over twenty-five years of work: support for your dog's own body, from the inside.

Lily's story is shared with his family's permission. It's one dog's experience, not a guaranteed result and not a substitute for veterinary care. Nzymes products are nutrition that supports your dog's own body, not a treatment for seizures, epilepsy, or any disease. Never stop or change a prescribed anti-convulsant without your vet. Every dog is different and individual results may vary.
