Hi kids! 👋

Spending time with the goats always brightens our day - these lil guys and the farmers that raise them are the reason why we do what we do. To help continue the traditions of generational farming that nourish the land. This is the fulcrum of our mission.

🐟 FISH GELATIN, FERMENTED HERRING, FERMENTED COD LIVERS, MANGO 🐟

Fish Gelatin Jiggles are truly a uniquely healing food and a huge aspect of that is how they are made. When discussing holistic health, nutrient analyses and ingredients lists are only part of the story - how component parts are sourced and processed are vital in terms of maintaining product health viability.

All our Gelatin Jiggles are made by a wonderful farmer named Steve right on his property, surrounded by goats, flowers, wild grasses, and various birds. In a raised lean-to, frames are simmered in large stainless steel pots and then cooled before desiccated powdered mango and fermented herring are added. Our bottling facility is literally just up the gravel road - perhaps a two minute walk. This low energy manufacturing integrates the wild and healing polycultures of the farm into every carton of Gelatin Jiggles - healing energy that will never show up on an ingredient panel or in a nutrient analysis.

Solutions for pets, solutions for our planet. Real food synergistic with the land it comes from. Fish Gelatin Jiggles.

We get asked about this a lot! The relationship to fermented foods and histamine is commonly misunderstood - as with many natural functions, it is impossible to use reductionistic reasoning and come to an accurate conclusion about histamine. "Oh, X does Y and I don't like Y, so I will avoid X" is very common logic. Unfortunately, biological systems are far more complicated than that.

Histamine is manufactured from the
essential amino acid Histidine. Histamine is a biogenic amine that plays an essential role in various physiological processes in the body. It is synthesized and stored in mast cells and basophils and is released in response to an immune response or an allergic reaction. Histamine acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain and is involved in the regulation of sleep-wake cycles, alertness, appetite, and learning and memory. It also plays a critical role in the regulation of gastric acid secretion, which aids in the digestion of food. Additionally, histamine is involved in the regulation of the immune system, acting as a pro-inflammatory mediator to recruit immune cells to sites of infection or injury.

Histamine levels in the body are regulated by a complex balance between histamine production and breakdown. In individuals with normal histamine metabolism, the threshold for histamine intolerance or allergic reactions can vary widely and depend on factors such as age, genetics, and overall health.

Once again, it is not enough to use common "A to B" thinking when discussing biological mechanisms. Food that cultivates a healthy, diverse, thriving gut microbiome and strengthens the immune system is not made reactively - it is made holistically and intentionally.

Better Butter Tea and Tummy Butter Kefir utilize herbal tea for added nutritional benefits for targeting specific disease conditions. A mixture of organic herbs is steeped and the resulting brew is cooled and then mixed into our raw cultured goat milk. Extracting the nutrient compounds from the herbs in this way not only allows them to mix better into the milk, but also makes them more bioavailable than if they were otherwise prepared. Our herbal teas are made by a wonderful farmer named Steve, who also makes our Gelatin Jiggles✌️

BETTER BUTTER TEA: cultured raw goat milk, raw goat milk butter, organic parsley, organic dandelion root, organic yucca schidigera

TUMMBY BUTTER KEFIR: cultured raw goat milk, raw goat milk butter, organic peppermint, organic chicory, organic aloe leaf, organic ginger

Roxanne and discuss fermentation and kill steps - watch the full interview at the top link here: https://tr.ee/LnOJEZuWXp ❤️

Solutions Pet Products focuses predominantly on lactofermentation or wild fermentation, which involves allowing wild cultures inherent to food to consume starches and sugars in order to convert them into various organic acids. This can also be accomplished by inoculating food with a food that is already rich in lactic acid, such as raw sheep’s milk. ��

Research clearly shows the incredible food preservation ability of fermentation - not only is it the oldest known method of spoilage prevention, but biological analysis demonstrates that foods that are properly fermented have a balanced and diverse microflora, which outcompetes pathogenic microorganisms, rendering them benign.

Got any burning questions about our foods, farms, process, philosophy, or anything in between?

We firmly believe that true solutions for pets and people are unattainable unless consumers are empowered with the knowledge necessary to make confident changes. Its not up to us to "change your mind" or "convince you" - it is up to us to provide accurate information that helps you make the best choice for your family. Real food is a celebration of nature and all her wonderful elements and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to work with her to create a better world for us all.

This "Ask Us Anything" will be a prerecorded video in which Chelsea & Roxanne answer questions submitted beforehand - you don't need to worry about tuning in at a specific time to get your question answered! Just submit it to [email protected] with the subject "Ask Us Anything Question" before the 15th of August and then feel free to watch at your leisure.

We can't wait to hear from you! ❤️

GELATIN JIGGLES WITH FERMENTED FOODS FOR DEEP HEALING

Gelatin is formed when collagen is broken down into its constituent parts. As the most prominent protein in the body, collagen plays an important role in an astonishing range of biological functions, from immune system regulation and digestive health to skin and joint functionality. Our gelatin jiggles contain free amino acids, collagen, glucosamine, MSM, vitamins, minerals, and many other nutrients essential for overall bodily functionality.

PORK JIGGLES: pork gelatin (made with whole pig heads and whole pig feet), fermented organic cabbage, blueberries

CHICKEN JIGGLES: chicken gelatin (made with whole chicken heads and whole chicken feet), organic fermented ginger

FISH JIGGLES: fish gelatin (made with whole redfish), fermented herring, fermented cod livers, mango

Our line of Gelatin Jiggles are available everywhere Solutions is sold and are available in pints and quarts ✌️

PREBIOTIC • BLOOD SUGAR REGULATION • ANTI-INFLAMMATORY • HYDRATION • ELECTROLYTES • ANTIOXIDANTS

Our regeneratively farmed okra is grown just for us by our PA farmers, a short walk away from the duck and chicken pastures that host our birds. After it is hand-harvested, it is wild fermented to deactivate anti-nutrients and break the cellular structure, causing the beneficial nutrients to be immensely bioavailable and non-taxing to the body. This enormously interesting ingredient is not commonly found in pet food but has a staggering list of benefits that make it an ideal addition to our raw dog food recipes.

Raw fermented okra's main benefits come from its mucilage - a sort of slimy substance contained within okra pods that is released when okra is fermented.

Gut bacteria feeding prebiotics, healthy soluble fiber, a digestive tract protective texture, powerful antioxidants, and cellular hydration. Raw fermented okra from regenerative farms. Solutions for health. ✌️

RESTORATIVE HEALTH SOLUTIONS: YEAST & FUNGI

Treating any disease condition at a deep level requires real food that nourishes the body fundamentally. Healthy food cannot come from an unhealthy source. When treating yeast, it is important that the ingredients used support the immune system, are metabolically appropriate, and are not contaminated by harsh chemicals or heavy metals. “Ingredient animals” that have been raised on feedlots or fed conventional animal feed are not only nutrient depleted and damaged, but also damage consumers due to heavy metal contamination, high cortisol levels, pathogenic microbes, and other factors.

Sourcing clean, appropriately fed, environmentally supported animals is the first step towards true healing. Our Yeast & Fungi restorative health solution is available on our website (https://solutionspetproducts.com/restorative-health-guides/). This protocol is simple, approachable, and effective and features our new Tummy Butter Kefir and Yeast & Fungi tincture!

“Imagine if we had a food system that actually produced wholesome food. Imagine if it produced that food in a way that restored the land. Imagine if we could eat every meal knowing these few simple things: What it is we’re eating. Where it came from. How it found its way to our table. And what it really cost. If that was the reality, then every meal would have the potential to be a perfect meal. We would not need to go hunting for our connection to our food and the web of life that produces it. We would no longer need any reminding that we eat by the grace of nature, not industry, and that what we’re eating is never anything more or less than the body of the world.

I don’t want to have to forage every meal. Most people don’t want to learn to garden or hunt. But we can change the way we make and get our food so that it becomes food again—something that feeds our bodies and our souls. Imagine it: Every meal would connect us to the joy of living and the wonder of nature. Every meal would be like saying grace.” - Michael Pollan; The Omnivore's Dilemma

That every meal would connect us to the joy of living and the wonder of nature - Solutions for the planet - Solutions for us all.

This is why we do what we do ✌️ Thank you, Shannon, for sharing ❤️

""When I was told my 1 year old dog had kidney disease and wouldn’t make it till 2, I was devastated. Her vet at the time told me to feed her a “prescription” food and hope for the best and that was it. I didn’t accept that’s all I could do for her and after much research, trial and error, I changed her diet to raw. Her diet consisted of raw goats milk, fish broth and a portion of meat. I was hesitant at first not knowing much about raw feeding but in just two months her kidney values improved significantly and the vets were shocked. I then realized the power of food and how healing it can be.

Before Solutions, Rosie’s creatinine was 3.1 and BUN 44, she had high blood pressure and was a little more lethargic. Since following the Solutions Restorative Kidney Diet, she is thriving and her kidney values are holding steady with a creatinine of 1.9 and BUN 23 and she no longer has high blood pressure.

We just celebrated her 3rd birthday and we’re now looking at many more years together when I was told she wouldn’t make it past 2. I am weary of who I trust and what I feed my dog but Solutions Pet Products and their Restorative Kidney Diet have not only proven to be outstanding in quality but by far the best in the industry. I am forever grateful to have more time with my girl and I owe it to her diet and everyone at Solutions."

CULTURED RAW GOAT MILK FOR FULL BODY WELLNESS

Grass fed raw milk is nature’s perfect food - it is the only food that exists for the sole purpose of nourishing and thus contains every nutrient needed for optimal health. The nutrients in grass fed raw goat milk are in their most usable form - the body doesn’t need to work to absorb and utilize them. Our milk recipes do not “improve” grass fed raw goat milk - it is impossible to improve perfection - rather, they add various elements to target specific bodily functions or health concerns.

BETTER BUTTER TEA: cultured raw goat milk, raw goat milk butter, organic parsley, organic dandelion root, organic yucca

TUMMY BUTTER KEFIR: cultured raw goat milk, raw goat milk butter, organic peppermint, organic chicory, organic aloe leaf, organic ginger

GOATNOG: cultured raw goat milk, fermented duck eggs (no shell), raw honey, organic cinnamon

TEXSAUCE: cultured raw goat milk, organic fermented turmeric, organic fermented ginger

Our line of grass fed cultured raw goat milks are available everywhere Solutions is sold and each recipe comes in pints, quarts, and half-gallons ✌️

TUMMY BUTTER KEFIR

Raw goat milk kefir is a fermented dairy product made from goat milk and kefir grains. It is similar to yogurt but has a thinner consistency and a more diverse microbial profile. It is rich calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, and vitamins A and D, as well as Lactic Acid Bacteria, Acetic Acid Bacteria, and yeasts like Saccharomyces and Kluyveromyces.

Kefir is commonly used to address imbalances in the gut, particularly regarding yeast. Factors like antibiotic use, a high-sugar diet, weakened immune system, hormonal imbalances, and certain medical conditions can disrupt the normal microbiota, allowing Candida and other opportunistic yeasts to overgrow and cause symptoms such as rashes, hot spots, and other skin conditions.

Kefir is ideally situated to address these imbalances due to competitive inhibition: by supplying healthy yeast and bacteria to balance the gut, overgrown opportunistic yeasts will have fewer resources and space available, eventually coming back into balance with the rest of the body.

TUMMY BUTTER KEFIR is shipping out now! You will start to see the blue "kefir" stickers on cartons of Tummy Butter Tea, designating this update. Tummy Butter Kefir will retain all the benefits of Tummy Butter Tea with the additional benefits described above.

Be on the lookout for our upcoming "Yeast & Fungi" Restorative Diet Guide, which will heavily feature Tummy Butter Kefir and our new Yeast & Fungi Tincture ✌️

YEAST & FUNGAL TINCTURE - For fungal infections, yeast overgrowths, inflammation, and more.

There are multiple methodologies for herb extraction that can impact the potency and quality of the end product. Solutions Pet Products uses a percolation/vacuum method that is best for heat-sensitive compounds. A percolation batch is a 5:1 solvent to herb ratio. Percolation begins after a 12-hour steep.

The combination of solvents used to extract compounds from herbal sources or solutes is called “menstruum”. Our menstruum recipe is chosen specifically for this particular extraction. The individual menstruum ingredients are chosen based on their purity and ability to extract the desired compounds from the herbal material.

INGREDIENTS: Chanca Piedra, Pau D'Arco, Thyme, Oregano, Neem, Cat's Claw, Cinnamon.

Yeast & Fungal is made by Earl, the gatherer and wildcrafter responsible for our Goldenseal tincture. It can be used orally or topically to bring balance to a system overburdened by opportunistic yeasts, molds, or other fungi.

Yeast & Fungal is the second of three new herbal remedies that we are announcing this week - stay tuned for details regarding BIOME tomorrow ✌️

06/05/2024

GOLDENSEAL/BERBERINE FOR MICROBIAL INFECTIONS

Wild harvested by hand from the hollers of rural West Virginia, our Goldenseal pure root extract is ideally suited for combating microbial infections and parasitic microbe imbalances, as well as supporting the immune system and regulating blood sugar.

This precious herb is collected by a dedicated man named Earl, who ventures deep into the wilderness to gather the delicate white flowers. Earl describes the journey to find goldenseal as venturing so far into the woods that "you have to pump sunshine in."

Earl's commitment to harvesting goldenseal by hand ensures that these plants remain pure and free from chemicals or pollution. This method of wild harvesting not only protects the natural environment but also preserves the potent healing properties of the goldenseal. Each plant is carefully picked, ensuring sustainability and respect for the ecosystem.

By choosing our goldenseal, you're not only receiving a product of unmatched purity and quality, but you're also supporting a tradition of sustainable, respectful wildcrafting. Experience the best nature has to offer, brought to you from the untouched hollers of West Virginia.

GOLDENSEAL is the first of 3 new herbal remedies that will be announced in the upcoming days and will be available soon everywhere Solutions is sold ✌️

It has truly been such an absolute joy to spend time with Bryce & Kenzie on the The BK Pets Modern Dog Parent book tour. We say it all the time, but it doesn't stop being true just because it is said often: sharing experiences with like minded individuals - people who are out there doing the right thing for the sake of doing the right thing and for the sake of our pets and for the sake of the truth - means the world to us and keeps us going.

Sometimes, it can feel like the world is against us. Regulatory entities, manufacturing giants, misinformed veterinarians, even other raw pet food manufacturers and educators. Being able to consistently spend time with the people involved with The BK Pet book tour helps maintain the perspective that even though there are mountains to climb, we aren't climbing them alone.

Sincerely, to everyone who has participated in organizing or attending this string of events: We love you and we thank you ❤️

See you at the next one ✌️

Real food is beautiful and living - the antithesis of sterile. To assume that removing clean food from its microbes makes it somehow "safer" is ridiculous and shows a grievous misunderstanding of the natural world. Without microbes, life doesn't exist - they are foundational to all living things.

Rather than sterilize our food with damaging "kill steps", we inoculate our foods with healthy bacteria, providing a suitable environment for them to grow and thrive. Culturing and fermenting our foods in this way celebrates the relationships between animals, food, and bacteria, using the natural mechanisms of food protection to create a truly safe and bioavailable end product. This is possible for us because of our sourcing -

The environments from which our ingredients come are almost more important than the ingredients themselves. Healing food cannot come from a sick animal or from malnourished plants and these cannot be cultivated without a thriving, symbiotic ecosystem.��Very famously, the conventional models of raising “commodity” animals are depleting natural resources at an astonishing rate. They also create optimal breeding grounds for viruses, parasitic microorganisms, and toxic molds. Food in these systems is designed to produce high “yield” - to cause an animal to grow as rapidly as possible - rather than to nourish and build a functioning body. These animals, which are raised in a contaminated and inappropriate environment, are not allowed to develop adequate immune systems. They are sick and have no mechanism to protect themselves. ��

Contrastingly, the environments from which we source are optimized for natural symbiosis rather than for huge yields. Animals are treated as living beings instead of as numbers on a spreadsheet. The systems of regenerative farming cultivate food that is abundantly safer than their mass-produced counterparts.��

Our raw diets for dogs are available in 3lb Sliders, 6lb Patties, 12lb Bulk, and 20lb Bulk. Raw diets for cats are available in 3lb Sliders. Our foods can be found anywhere Solutions Pet Products are sold.

HEALING FOODS FOR LASTING HEALTH 💪

The word "holistic" gets thrown around a lot in this industry, whether by consumers looking for a natural solution or by marketers trying to describe their products. Often, when people say "holistic" they mean "natural" - but having "natural" roots doesn't actually have anything to do with "holistic" remedies.

You've heard us rage before against reductionism - against the idea that any one supplement or food or diet or ingredient can either make or break an animal - or that one part can be removed from the whole without consequence. A holistic remedy is one that considers the vast "whole" of the situation and body and solves for that - our bodies are extraordinarily complex and interconnected. A remedy for one area must consider the rest of the body as well.

We have designed our product line to play off this idea. Each food supports systems that feed into each other and elevate the whole body. Rather than reduce complex systems by hyper-fixating on very specific aspects of health, we have chosen to try to create simple solutions to complex problems through real, raw, fermented, whole, foods.

Raw grass fed butter is one of our favorite ingredients. A truly beautiful source of diverse fatty acids and vitamins, raw butter is featured in our Chicken Recipe, Better Butter Tea, and Tummy Butter Kefir.

One of the most important uses of raw butter in our foods is in regards to its diverse fatty acid profile, particularly the saturated fats that aid in metabolic, endocrine, and mental function. When formulating diets, we pay special attention to not only the "ratio" of fat included relative to protein (1:1), but also the different types of fats used - many ketogenic diets can cause issues because people are only paying attention to the macro. "X amount of fat per pound" is a good starting point but is functionally useless or even problematic unless the types of fat are balanced to provide a well rounded profile.

Raw grass fed butter is an excellent source of vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, and the often forgotten Vitamin K2, which is essential for blood health. It is an incredible source of Conjugated Linoleic Acid, which helps prevent cancer and build muscle, and also the only source of a hormone-like substance called the Wulzen Factor, which ensures that calcium is put into bones instead of joints and other tissues.

We are enormously thankful that our farmers are dedicated to producing the most nutrient dense, clean, nourishing foods for our pets - our raw grass fed butter comes from the lovely pastures that surround our manufacturing facility. We are inspired every day by the beauty of regenerative food production and are so deeply honored to show you all what these foods can do ❤️

Bioavailability should be a huge focus of discussion in terms of understanding "cost to feed". The primary focus for many people is caloric density - "calories in, calories out" is a popular weight loss strategy, but doesn't tell the whole story.

The calories consumed need to come from foods that provide adequate nutrients in their most useful forms, otherwise the consumer will find themselves in a nutritional deficit, not just a calorie deficit. While our foods are enormously calorie dense, this isn't the only factor that we consider when calculating feeding amounts.

A full 30% of the meats in our foods are organs - nature's multivitamins. Since the micronutrients in organs already exist in their optimal form, the body doesn't need to work as hard to assimilate them as it would if we relied on plant based or synthetic vitamins and minerals. We need to supply far less in terms of "amounts" because the body is actually able to use everything that is available.

Fermentation plays a huge factor in this discussion as well. The breakdown of organic matter by bacteria into constituent parts not only deactivates many anti-nutrients in plant matter, but actually creates new micronutrients and alters their forms to be easy for the body to use. Creating a strong gut and supplying the body with the right nutrients is vastly more important than worrying about nutrient "amounts" established by cereal lobbyists.

GELATIN JIGGLES FOR CELLULAR REGENERATION

The body is in a constant cycle of birth and death - its very cells expiring and degrading to make room for the new ones that are born every second. Truly, the process by which the body restores itself is magnificent.

A critical determining factor in the body's ability to recover from disease or trauma is its ability to rapidly replace dead or damaged cells. Unfortunately, something cannot be made from nothing and it is up to us to provide the body with the materials it needs for this process. Foods or food materials that exist in isolation (synthetic or isolate nutrient compounds) or foods that have been dried out (lacking innate cellular moisture) fall desperately short of the standard needed to achieve efficient cellular regeneration.

Gelatin Jiggles are ideally suited to help the body recover from sickness or trauma due to their enormously bioavailable amino acids. Typically, protein is bound up as a conglomeration of amino acids branched together with peptide bonds. Upon consumption, the body must break these bonds in order to utilize the protein. In Gelatin Jiggles, these bonds are already broken, leaving free amino acids that are enormously easy for the body to use.

The less work the body has to do to use something, typically the more valuable it is, especially as a "recovery" food. When we say "bioavailable", we are referring to the amount of a substance that can be used after the body is done processing it. Gelatin Jiggles are one of the most bioavailable sources of amino acids that we know of.

Check out our Restorative Health Guides (https://solutionspetproducts.com/restorative-health-guides/) for various ways that Gelatin Jiggles can help support your pet's health!

There is peace in these pastures. The rippling wind and the smell of rich earth and the cyclic nature of life and decay. It is easy to get so caught up in what we are creating - lost in the minutiae of business and development and production - that we lose sight of the vision and of the heart - these pastures and these goats and these mountains and the intricate complexity with which Nature weaves. Here in the quiet, in the pastures, we not only find peace but we also find our center. This is our heart - around it we will build. ❤️ #pastures #nature #peace #regenerate #grassfedgoats

Serene pastures, far from city smog Undisturbed by the rumbles of industry Or by by the wildfire pesticides 🌱🐐🌻 The pastures are the skin of the earth - to cultivate their nourishment is to cultivate our own. #regenerativeagriculture #grassfedgoats #grassfarmers #solutionsfortheplanet #petsolutions #rawpetfood #rawmilk #foodismedicine #microbiome #solutions

Hello ladies 👋 Raw goat milk, from grass fed goats on pasture. These lovely ladies participate in a beautiful symbiotic cycle with the earth, being nourished by the grass that grows from the rich soil that they help to cultivate. No commercial fertilizer or industrial feed can compare. #grassfedgoats #solutionsfortheplanet #solutionspetproducts #rawgoatmilk #realfood #realmilk #dogfood #catfood #symbiosis #regenerativeagriculture
