What is Derma Support Gold?

Derma Support Gold is an herbal, veterinary product developed by a doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for dogs with excessive yeast on their skins' surface. TCM is an ancient practice of medicine used for approximately 2500 years. It works with principles of energy in the body that work in a practical way to rebalance what has come out of balance.

Primarily for topical yeast infections (on the skin) in dogs.  For yeast dermatitis, Derma Support Gold can help support:

  • Healthy coat
  • Normal odor
  • Healthy, comfortable skin and ears
  • Maintain normal amounts of yeast on your dog's skin

2 oz (59 ml) is a 1-month supply for most medium to large sized dogs (up to 50 lbs).

As a simplistic example, "cooling" remedies are applied to counteract symptoms of heat in the body (like a hot, red rash). TCM traditionally uses these types of energetic principles, and scientific validation is able to verify the precise mechanisms to explain how herbal medicines are working at the cellular level. The formula's action is based on the specific symptoms and imbalances that canines experience with fungal (yeast) overgrowth on the skin and inside the ears.

This unique formula can help restore the correct balance of yeast, a fungal organism that is normally present on healthy dogs' skin and inside the ears. It is only when the yeast starts to grow in an abnormal way and over proliferate that it will cause unwanted symptoms. Derma Support Gold is taken internally.

What is Derma Support Gold Used For?
A species of yeast called Malassezia pachydermatis is a normal organism found on the skin and inside the ears of all canines. If this organism proliferates too much, an overgrowth occurs, causing a variety of symptoms that can be uncomfortable and also change the appearance and smell of the dog's skin and coat. The condition often starts with minor itching and red patches on the skin and progresses over time to chronic itching, thickened skin and hair loss. The excessive yeast causes an increase in oil production on the skin so you may see a discharge and the coat will often appear greasy. There may be a crust on the skin and an offensive odor. The itching can be a constant discomfort to the dog. The regions most affected are places where the skin creases, so canines can commonly be seen trying to relieve itching between the paw pads (gnawing at their paws) and scratching their ears. It may also affect the anal area, folds of the nose and eyelids, around the neck and the armpits.

Yeast overgrowth can cause:
- Intense itching
- Skin irritation and inflammation (especially around the ears, paw pads, between the toes, folds of the nose, anal area, neck and the armpits)
- Skin redness
- Sores
- Sticky discharge
- Hair loss
- Foul-smelling skin
- Yellowish / greenish discharge from ears with a musty smell

The condition may be linked to lowered immunity, an allergy, longtime use of antibiotics or other medications, especially steroids. It may occur when other, primary medical conditions exist. Hormonal problems like hypothyroidism or Cushing's disease, external skin parasites or chemotherapeutic drugs may be contributing factors to an overgrowth of yeast on the skin. All dog breeds can be affected by yeast overgrowth on the skin (also called Malassezia dermatitis) but the condition is more common in certain dog breeds: Basset Hounds, Cocker Spaniels, Dachshunds, Poodles, Chihuahuas, Maltese and some terriers (Silky Terriers, West Highland White Terriers and Australian Terriers).

Diagnosis: Be certain that a yeast overgrowth is the skin condition that your dog is suffering from before administering Derma Support Gold.

Food Allergy or Sensitivity?
It is necessary to determine whether there is a food allergy or sensitivity. This will contribute to the yeast overgrowth. Similar to humans, dogs may build up sensitivities to foods that are eaten daily, without a break. Just like humans, dogs are healthiest with a varied diet. Be sure to switch your dog's foods at least from time-to-time. The most common foods that cause sensitivity or allergy in dogs are: beef by-products, dairy products, chicken, chicken by-products, soy, corn, wheat and artificial food coloring.

Nutrition:
Make sure your dog receives a diet high in nutrients. Consider supplementation of vitamins, minerals and especially Omega-3 essential fatty acids. Omega-3's have been shown to provide the body with support for inflammation, repair of the skin and are extremely beneficial for maintenance of skin health. A supplement like SPARK Daily Nutritional Supplement contains nutrients and superfoods from whole food sources, along with probiotics and enzymes for overall good health, immunity and energy.

Derma Support Gold does not contain drugs and results will depend on the severity of the condition and length of time since it began. Expect symptoms to gradually lessen over weeks or months. Results vary for each patient. Once desired results are achieved, the formula may be discontinued. Reintroduce as necessary. The formula does not need to be used constantly and is meant to be used when symptoms appear.

The herbs in Derma Support Gold are potent and are formulated to help symptomatically and also address the underlying imbalance. In the Traditional Chinese Medicine model, a yeast overgrowth on the skin is known as a Damp Heat skin condition. Damp Heat can be exacerbated by external sources (poor diet or food allergies) and/or internal sources (such as stress). Damp Heat conditions are generally slow to resolve and this should be taken into consideration. A "quick fix" is generally not going to fully resolve this type of skin issue for the long term. In Damp Heat conditions, an herbal formula works to "detoxify and cool the blood". This description is particular to a TCM model and approach which can be more effective than anything else when treating this type of disorder.

Derma Support Gold is Formulated With:

- Baikal Skullcap root (Scutellaria baicalensis)
- Phellodendron bark (Phellodendron chinense)
- Sophora root (Sophora flavenscens)

Amazing product! It literally resolved the kidney disease in our senior Yorkie and saved our other senior pup, Frankie! Frankie has severe mitral valve disease, was on Max doses of cardiac medications at levels toxic to his kidneys. He had several trips to icu before we tried this product! Within 1 week, we saw a dramatic improvement and few weeks were able to decrease his cardiac medication doses!

We’ve used Pet Wellbeing’s Calming Care for our poor boy Pablo who’s terribly afraid of thunder storms over the past week and noticed he’s been less anxious and able to sleep through it - when he’d be trembling and terrified before. He seems calmer on walks too and less anxious overall. Will continue giving it to him as a supplement to help him through these rainy months!

Kitty is feeling better, thank you!
Our cat has been on this product for 5 weeks, no sign of asthma or breathing problems since coming off steroids (from vet). He is tolerating it well and likes the taste when mixed in with his soft food. So far so good, we will be ordering again. His energy and personality have returned.

Hi my girl was diagnosed with adrenal tumors last Jan. 2020 She's 15. I started giving her both Life Gold and Adrenal care. Didn't think she would still be here with us. It's over a year now and she is. She's eating, drinking and all bodily functions are working perfectly. Not in any pain, I'm grateful for this product I would recommend these to everyone.

Thank you for saving my baby.
My 13 years old Yorkshire has pancreatitis since 2 years and he had flare up every 2 weeks and now he is perfect. He hasn’t been sick since 3 months now. The last time he was sick I taught of having him putting to sleep because he was so sick. Thank you Pet Wellbeing you save my old boy.

My little dog Timothy was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. He was having a really hard time breathing and he had no energy. After just 3 days he was breathing easier. It is not a cure but just making his life easier makes me feel like he at least has a better quality of life.
