Raw Remedies Health

Yall, I was fiiiiiiiinally able to do an actual meal prep at my new house with almost all the ingredients needed to structure them using my Vital Paws feeding model. This includes:
-55% muscle meat (venison)
-10% RMB (duck feet)
-5% liver (beef)
-10% other secreting organ (this is missing today)
-10% fiber (veggie scrap puree)
-8% small oily fish (sardine)
-2% shellfish (blue mussel and oyster)
-toppers were h**p hearts, pastured chicken eggs

My veggies are scraps collected throughout the month from what I cook. This can include carrot peels, tops and greens, celery ends, kale stems, lettuce, beet greens, bell peppers, garlic tops, fennel and more. I save and freeze until it’s prep time, then thaw and blend.

But the most exciting part of this prep was finally, FINALLY having fish again! I couldn’t find fish locally and we haven’t had any since August which is no bueno. I’m so glad to have gotten these whole sardines from to bring my pups their omegas 3s, vitamin d, magnesium and many other vits and mins.

I like to add fish to the container and feed together, or feed it frozen as a snack. This cleans teeth and provides enrichment. You can use code RAWREMEDIES to get 10% off your first order with My Pet Carnivore!

Are you getting enough D…? 👀 😉

In all seriousness, vitamin D is probably one of the most important nutrients you can have in the diet. It’s really more of a hormone than a nutrient and plays numerous roles in your health.

For the thyroid specifically, vitamin D:
-inhibits inflammatory responses in thyrocytes
-decreases production of inflammatory cytokines

It’s high in pastured eggs and beef organs, wild caught oily fish (sardine, herring, mackerel), cod liver oil, some in mushrooms especially if you chop and expose to the sun for 20 minutes before cooking!

How may sources of vitamin D are you and your furry family getting in your diet?

I have some goals for 2026. They aren’t lofty (except perhaps the Super Bowl wish, which isn’t really mine to achieve anyways, but a girl can dream!), and they aren’t generic. They’re simply mine, and they come from the heart.

I want 2026 to be about friends, family, healing and growth. What are your wishes for 2026?

I’m seeing an extremely concerning pattern of those in the holistic pet space using chat gpt to make content, create ‘recipes’ and answer sick pet or nutrition questions. I’m not talking about using it to edit something you made already, or perhaps augmenting an article you wrote so it appeals to your audience. Wht im worried about is an extremely obvious copy and paste from chat with the tone and style of wording that is 100% AI. This makes me really nervous because while you can ‘train’ chat to give you holistic answers, it can also give you false information that it pulls from anywhere on the internet including opinion pieces and social media posts.

Please fact check the information and answers that people give you. And that doesn’t mean putting the answer into chat and asking if it’s true.

Starting off the new year right by declining flea and tick chemicals, vaccines, and unnecessary additional labs and imaging at this unfortunately necessary appointment. We’ll be scheduling a chest xray and abdominal ultrasound to rule out megaesophagus or a gastric outlet obstruction, and we’ll take our next steps from there. I’ll be manifesting some healing and clarity from the universe for Copper as his 9th birthday present 💜

Big thanks to everyone who has taken the time to brainstorm with us about what could be going on with Copper, especially Dr. Loudon, Jessica Fisher, Girls Gone Raw Pet Health and Isabel Alvarez Arata. You guys helped me through some sleepless nights and anxious days at the expense of your own time and that empathy and friendship mean the world to us.

I truly dislike having to go to a conventional vet office. It feels like dipping my skin in acid. While we were sitting in the waiting room, a woman walked in with her pet and said ‘he’s not doing too good, I think we may need to put him down’ and the secretary responded with ‘what do you feed him’ and ‘he’s due for some vaccines’. Like what the frick. It takes everything in me to keep my mouth shut and stay in my lane.

2026 is here, and I'm reflecting on the first year of Raw Remedies Podcast. I want to thank you all for your support and your enthusiasm, it means the world to me. This year is going to bring new content, new guests, and a bigger emphasis on human functional health and how our health ties together with our pets' health. I hope you'll stay along for the journey!

If you haven't yet listened and don't know where to start, here are my top played episodes of 2025:
1. Revolutionizing the approach to oral health with Dr. Emily Stein of TEEF for Life - Prebiotic Pet Dental Health

2. Ancestral healing meets modern science with Sean Cahill of Tvati Pet

3. Using herbs, hugging trees, and a natural approach to GERD with Rita Hogan (Canine Herbalist)

4. The incredible link between nutrition & behavior with Dr. Conor Brady (Dogs First)

5. Like heals like: unlocking the ancient art of homeopathy with Dr. Katie Kangas (to put it in perspective, this was the last episode of 2025 yet made it into the top 5; that goes to show how awesome it was!)

Not sure if he looked more derpy as a puppy or as a senior, but he’s still my best bud 💜

I love you Copper, happy 9th my dude!
