A Natural 60-Day Guide for Dogs and Cats
If your pet struggles with itching, paw licking, recurring ear debris, odor, hot spots, digestive upset, or irritated skin, yeast overgrowth may be part of the issue.
Yeast naturally exists in the body, but when the system becomes imbalanced, yeast can begin to overgrow. This commonly affects both dogs and cats and is often connected to gut imbalance, food sensitivities, inflammation, and environmental stressors.
At Glacier Peak Holistics, our 60-Day Yeast Detox Protocol was designed to support pets from multiple angles by focusing on:
- Reducing Yeast-Feeding Foods
- Supporting Detox Pathways
- Helping Maintain Healthy Gut Balance
- Supporting Immune Function
- Soothing Irritated Skin And Inflammation

Step 3: Rebuild Gut Balance
