Ginseng for Dogs

Ginseng, a common Chinese herb, For Dog Cancer, cachexia and (extreme weight loss)Ginseng is commonly prescribed to dogs and cats. It may be of particular benefit in the management of Addison’s disease, congestive heart failure, diabetes mellitus, chronic low grade hepatitis and perhaps even cognitive dysfunction in dogs and cats. It can be used to minimize stress in any animal.

 Ginsing is a common herb used in eastern medicine, and is now being used for dogs by practitioners of Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine.

There is good reason for this.  Ginseng has some very definite effects that are real, and may help a dog with cancer. Mainly of using ginseng for mammary cancers or cancers of the stomach, colon and possibly liver. Traditional Chinese Medicine, however, may point other additional uses for dogs with cancer.

Here’s some information on Ginsing…
Ginsing is a root.  There are different kinds of ginsing (actually, up to eleven different types depending on classification). The plants grow mainly in China, Siberia, and Korea.

There’s red Panax ginseng (older and steam cooked, probably the one most useful), white Panax ginseng (younger, not cooked much), Siberian ginseng, American ginseng, and other classifications.

Red (Panax) ginseng powder was found to increase survival times in humans with stage 3 stomach cancer, and also helped their immunity.  The number of patients that survived 5 years after diagnosis almost doubled from about a third to more than two third.   This was in conjunction with chemo and surgery.

Ginseng definitely has its uses, and is one of the tools that can be chosen to help dogs with cancer. Please discuss these with your vet with training in Traditional Veterinary Chinese Medicine.
