About Diabetes Mellitus in Dogs
A dog suffering from diabetes either has a shortage of insulin in their body, or their cells are resistant to it. This keeps their organs from converting the glucose in their blood into energy, resulting in too much glucose in their blood.
Insulin is a hormone produced in the pancreas, and supporting the pancreas through all-natural supplements may help with symptoms of diabetes.
About Pancreatitis in Dogs
The pancreas is a small organ that produces digestive enzymes. In dogs, there is a chance the pancreas may become inflamed. The most common reason this happens to dogs is because they’ve eaten something they’re not supposed to, especially something high in fat.
An inflamed pancreas has a chance of leaking digestive enzymes. When that happens, the result is pancreatitis.

What can you do if your little one suffers from pancreatitis in dogs and cats? What are the best supplements for dogs with pancreatitis and cats with pancreatitis? NHV Pancreatitis and Diarrhea Support Kit may just be the support your furkid needs to feel better and manage pancreatitis symptoms, such as diarrhea and vomiting.

NHV Pancreatitis and Diarrhea Support Kit may just be the support your furkid needs to feel better and manage pancreatitis symptoms, such as diarrhea and vomiting.
Pancreatitis in dogs and cats can make your furkiddo’s life uncomfortable. As a pet parent, it is definitely not something you’d want your precious little one to endure. That’s why it’s a good idea to help support them by providing natural supplements like the ones in our Pancreatitis and Diarrhea Support Kit. It can help your furkiddo manage the symptoms and discomfort pancreatitis might bring, ease pancreas swelling, and provide additional nutritional support. This bundle contains Mellit, Milk Thistle, Plantaeris, and Multi Essentials.
All our herbal extracts are free of added preservatives, additives, flavorings, or artificial colors. They are made with organically grown and ethically harvested (or ethically sourced) herbs.
To understand how our supplements may help, we should first understand what pancreatitis is. Pancreatitis in our furriends happens when there is inflammation in their pancreas, a vital organ that produces enzymes and hormones like insulin. The organ is responsible for digesting food and regulating blood sugar and glucose. Therefore, when inflamed, the pancreas cannot perform these functions properly.
Pancreatitis signs can be subtle at first and may appear out of nowhere. So, you should be informed and prepared for them well before they hit.
NHV herbal extracts can also be used as a preventative support for pancreatitis in dogs and cats. So even if your furkiddo doesn’t show any of the following signs, keeping these supplements at arms reach may be a good idea.
Without further ado, here are some common symptoms,
It is easy to mistake these symptoms for other health conditions, as some overlap. However, it is vital to contact a licensed veterinarian to determine the cause as soon as they exhibit these signs over an extended period. Because if they indeed have pancreatitis, the consequence can be life-threatening.
Our Pancreatitis and Diarrhea Support Kit can support your little one alongside traditional treatment. Let’s dive deeper and learn how exactly they help your furkid.
As mentioned earlier, a healthy pancreas helps regulate the body's blood sugar levels. When there is inflammation, furkids need supplements to help fill in for this role. That’s why our pet experts have bundled our main support for pancreatitis in furkiddos, Mellit, into this kit.
The herbal formulation helps manage blood sugar levels and may even help reduce the inflammation of the pancreas. Jambolan, in particular, may help stop the transformation of starch into sugar when blood sugar levels are elevated. The amino acid in Fenugreek also supports insulin production, which may be disrupted by pancreatitis.
In addition, the carefully selected herbs work together to ease the symptoms of pancreatitis, such as helping to improve appetite and chronic fatigue.
For primary diarrhea support, a significant symptom of pancreatitis, Plantaeris can help. The unique blend of herbs assists the body in maintaining a normal bowel function and relieves spasms of the digestive tract, as well as any discomfort diarrhea may cause.
Barberry and bayberry in this formula have been traditionally used to help with diarrhea and stomach upsets. Studies have shown that barberry improves diarrhea symptoms faster than antibiotics.
Chamomile has powerful calming effects that may be used as a digestive tonic and is beneficial to pancreas inflammation.
Another supplement added to this kit is Multi Essentials. The highly nutritious supplement offers your furkiddo the extra nutritional support they need for this fight. Herbs like Alfalfa are rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, dietary fibre, and amino acids. It can also help with the immune system and overall health of your little one.
Other herbs also may help with blood sugar level regulation and pancreatitis symptoms like bloating. Chickweed in the formula is traditionally used to treat stomach and bowel problems as well as blood disorders.
Last but not least, the anti-inflammatory properties of Milk Thistle can help with the swollen pancreas. The herbal extract may also help the body’s overall immunity and digestion of fat and sugar.
On top of that, Milk Thistle is very helpful for liver support and detoxification. Furkiddos with pancreatitis need to take long-term medication, so it is important to help support their system and help flush the toxins out.
NHV’s supplements are all entirely safe for long-term use, so furkiddos with chronic pancreatitis can use them for continuous support.
Every product is vet-formulated, and all kits, including this one, are designed to help with a specific condition. Feel free to ask our Pet Experts for more guidance and recommendations! We are always here to help!

Diabetes can be very unpleasant for your little one - they can experience intense thirst, more frequent visits to the bathroom and low energy levels. Our Pet Cat and Dog Diabetes Support kit is formulated to nourish the body, help regulate blood sugar levels and support the liver and other vital organs.
Diabetes can be very unpleasant for your little one - they can experience intense thirst, more frequent visits to the bathroom and low energy levels. Our Pet Cat and Dog Diabetes Support kit is formulated to nourish the body, help regulate blood sugar levels and support the liver and other vital organs.
Hearing that your furkiddo has been diagnosed with diabetes is not something any paw parent wants to hear. Diabetes in cats and dogs is a disorder of carbohydrate metabolism where their body has difficulty regulating blood sugar levels. Two factors common to many cases of pet diabetes are overeating and obesity. And other well-documented symptoms of diabetes (in addition to excessive thirst and urination) are poor skin and coat conditions. In the more advanced stages of diabetes, cats and dogs may become very lazy and lose their appetite entirely. If left untreated, diabetes may lead to cataracts, blindness, an enlarged liver, bladder or kidney infection, and renal complications.
A typical approach to diabetes management may involve a combination of weight loss, a change in diet, insulin injections, and perhaps natural remedies.
Type I Diabetes is when the pancreas cannot produce sufficient insulin levels - this is the most common type of diabetes in dogs. So far, there is no known evidence stating that dogs develop type II diabetes. Breeds such as Poodles, Dachshunds, Schnauzers, Cairn Terriers, and Beagles are especially susceptible to developing diabetes - though any breed may be affected. Also, dogs with endocrine conditions such as Cushing's disease are more likely to develop diabetes as well as pregnant female dogs (who may develop gestational diabetes).
Type II Diabetes is often linked to diet and obesity and is the result of insulin resistance. It is the most common type of diabetes to affect cats (as well as humans). All purebred and mixed-breed cats are equally susceptible to developing type II diabetes.
Diet plays a crucial role in helping to manage your pet's diabetes. If they are overweight, gradual weight loss can really help improve symptoms. For our feline friends, your vet can create a safe weight loss meal plan that is high in protein, low in carbs and specifically designed for diabetes. Switch your cat's feeding from free-feeding to twice daily feeding. A dog's diet may not need to be tailored for diabetes but should be well balanced and address any health issues they may have.
With insulin injections, there are a variety of different products for dogs and cats. Finding the right product for your dog or cat diabetes management may require experimentation as individual insulin responses may vary. Once insulin therapy has begun, we recommend frequent monitoring of their blood sugar, which may require a day at the hospital to collect a blood glucose curve, while other tests may require a shorter visit. At-home monitoring, which includes checking urine and blood glucose is also recommended. For herbal therapy, we would recommend using our Diabetes Kit with Metabolism Support which contains Mellit, Milk Thistle and Multi Essentials. Mellit was formulated to help manage blood sugar levels and support healthy pancreatic function while Milk Thistle supports liver function and Multi Essentials helps support healthy circulation and metabolism.
NHV supplements are formulated by a holistic veterinarian and master herbalist to be gentle, effective remedies that complement vet-formulated care plans. But it should never replace professional advice from your veterinarian. If you have any questions about your pet’s health or want to chat about their ongoing care plan, get in touch with an NHV Pet Expert.
