3 New Promising Integrative Therapies Worth Knowing

Cancer treatment in dogs and cats can feel like you have run out of options. In this video, Dr. Andrew Jones shares 3 newer integrative therapies for canine and feline cancer that more pet parents should know about: IV vitamin C, mistletoe extract, and ozone therapy. These are not do-it-yourself treatments. They are therapies used with an experienced integrative veterinarian, but they may be worth discussing if your dog or cat has lymphoma, mast cell tumors, mammary cancer, osteosarcoma, bladder cancer, skin cancer, or other difficult cancers.

Dr. Jones explains what each therapy is, how it is used, and why there is growing interest in it. He covers high-dose intravenous vitamin C and its possible effects on cancer cells, injectable mistletoe extract and its immune-supportive role, and ozone therapy as a complementary treatment that may help with inflammation, tissue support, and quality of life. He also talks about where some of the early animal research looks promising and why these treatments are being used alongside conventional care in some cases.

If your dog or cat has cancer and you want to learn more about integrative cancer care, this video gives you a practical starting point. Watch to understand these three lesser-known options and what to ask your veterinarian.
