NHV’s Milk Thistle Used By University of Tennessee’s Avian and Exotics Division For Birds with Liver Disorders
Clinical Trials & Research 3 min read
We have been using the NHV Milk Thistle in our Avian & Exotics Division of the University of Tennessee to treat liver issues with our patients. The owners have seen an improvement with birds that have liver issues.” -Janet Jones, LVMT, University of Tennessee-Knoxville Veterinary Medical Center, Avian/ Exotics
NHV Natural Pet Products once again had the pleasure of speaking with the University of Tennessee’s Veterinary Medical Center. This time it was the Avian and Exotics Division at the U of T that got in touch with us! Here’s what they had to say:

We want to take this opportunity to make sure regular bird pet parents are informed on the causes of liver disorders, symptoms to watch out for, and the benefits of NHV Milk Thistle in aiding liver issues.
The most common type of liver issue birds are diagnosed with is ‘fatty liver disease’ also known as hepatic lipidosis. This disease involves fat being deposited into the liver causing a variety of symptoms including:
- Sudden loss of appetite
- Lethargy
- Depression
- Trouble Breathing
- Poor feather quality
- Changes in feather coloration (Cockatiels with white feathers may take on more yellowish color. African grays may develop red feathers in areas that are grey.)
- Dry itchy skin
- Problems with beak, claws, and nails
- Disorientation
- Seizures
- Bleeding and clotting problems
- A distended abdomen
- Diarrhea or abnormal droppings
- Note: Some birds with fatty liver disease may develop few signs before the disease becomes fatal.
The major cause of the disease is due to a high-fat content in the diet.
Fatty liver disease is most common in Amazon parrots, budgies, cockatoos, cockatiels, lovebirds, and Quaker parrots and is more prevalent in female and juvenile birds. The major cause of the disease is due to a high-fat content in the diet. Birds that are hand-reared are particularly prone to fatty liver disease as they may be overfed in addition to being fed a calorie-dense diet. Some owners are unaware of the dangers of adding extra fat to regular commercial formulas, or feed formulas designed for other bird species like macaws (this is a high-fat formula). Pay close attention to the type of formula you are feeding your bird. And, although it may be cute to keep hand feeding your bird— be sure to wean them at an appropriate age to prevent over-eating.
For the treatment of fatty liver disease in birds, your holistic veterinarian will be able to provide an alternative and healthier diet. The diet will include food that is rich in fiber, low in fat and contains a reduced protein content. The new diet should also be organic and free of pesticides, chemicals, or artificial flavors so as to not cause the liver any more stress.
NHV Milk thistle will help provide support to the damaged liver, detoxify the liver and kidneys, and support the regeneration of the liver. An important aspect of NHV Milk Thistle is that it is glycerin-based and contains no artificial flavors, additives, or preservatives. Milk thistle from other brands, which may contain alcohol or artificial flavors can be dangerous to your bird.
In addition to diet and natural supplements, birds recovering from fatty liver disease need plenty of rest. Cover your bird and keep them in a quiet room for an appropriate amount of time during the day. Talk to your holistic vet about the adequate amount of rest time your bird should have.
If you have any questions feel free to contact an NHV Pet Expert free of charge. We also offer online consultations with our vet.

Holistic Support and Supplements for All Pet Birds
Many pet birds are extremely intelligent and sensitive, so with the addition of other birds, loud sounds, loneliness or lack of stimulation, your bird may become stressed out, especially birds like Cockatoos, African Grays, and other species of parrots. Their heart rate and blood pressure may increase, and they may become irritated, excitable, and display behavior like feather picking, or screaming. Matricalm contains five calming herbs that help to reduce anxiety, increase feelings of relaxation and discourage behavioral issues related to a stressed-out nervous system.
Our all-natural care products are palatable for all types of birds, and their liquid formulations make them easy to hide in a favorite treat or daily meals.
How NHV Matricalm Helps Support A Relaxed Pet
Stress and anxiety may have detrimental effects on your bird's body and cause a lot of discomfort. Ingredients like chamomile and lemon balm can help calm excitability, nervousness and relieve discomfort. The sedative properties in Matricalm help to expel intestinal gas and help lower blood pressure to support feelings of calmness. Herbs like passion flower promote feelings of relaxation by increasing levels of gamma aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, while valerian helps to improve sleep latency and sleep quality. Hops adds diuretic and sedative support to help relieve sleep disturbances and improve mood.

- May help reduce any discomfort and inflammation liver conditions may cause
- Promote the overall well-being of your little one
Knowing that your precious little one has liver problems in dogs and cats is worrying. The liver helps our furriends process food and flush out toxins in the body. When it doesn’t function properly, it causes many health issues. So it is crucial to give their liver the support it needs to work well.
Holistic and natural supplements like the ones in our Liver Detox And Support Kit may help support and protect your furkid’s liver. The bundle contains our primary liver support – Milk Thistle and Tumeric.
All our supplements are liquid-based, and they come with a dropper. Thus it is extremely easy to administer them to your little one by dropping the dosage directly in their cheek pockets or mixed with their meal.
Why is the liver so important to furkids?
Before understanding how liver supplement for dogs and cats can help your little one, let’s learn why supporting the liver is necessary.
The liver helps with blood clotting, digestion and detoxification and acts as the body's defence against harmful external substances. When our furriends eat, the food and nutrients will pass by the liver and turn into energy their bodies need to sustain. That’s what we mean when we say this organ is a key to survival.
Why do we need to support and detoxify furkids’ livers?
It’s almost impossible to avoid liver damage because furkids’ surroundings contain many toxins, such as household pollutants and heavy metals. They can all affect the liver of your furkiddo. The vet-prescribed medication can also lead to chemical accumulation and may cause significant damage to the liver.
That’s why your pet’s liver requires extra support and protection. Our supplements make excellent preventative support for health conditions. So we recommend letting your little one take these supplements even when they don’t have any liver disease as proactive support.
How NHV Remedies Support Liver Problems in Dogs and Cats
Our Liver Detox And Support Kit can help cats and dogs with liver disease by strengthening the liver and flushing out toxins.

The supplement is also anti-inflammatory, which may help inflamed livers due to different disorders.
Another anti-inflammatory formula added to this kit is Turmeric. It is a highly nutritious herb that may benefit liver functions. The herbal extract contains curcuminoids that may increase liver detoxification.

- Silymarin helps support and protect liver function by preventing toxins from binding to liver cells so they are easier to excrete
- Promotes effective digestion by stimulating bile flow
- Beneficial support for the liver and kidneys
- Antioxidant properties help support healthy immune function
