Our Story
Orange Paws
Inspired by an Angel
The future looked dark for my rescue, a newborn miniature b***o named Angel. Struggling with asthma and air-borne allergies, Angel’s lungs were increasingly inflamed. It was time to put my education (Ph.D. Biochemistry) to work, investigating natural therapies that could protect Angel’s lungs.
Research offered hope to animals suffering with chronic inflammatory diseases. Chemicals in turmeric, called curcuminoids, were highly anti-inflammatory. Two questions remained: Do I add turmeric to Angel’s food or purchase the purified chemical (curcumin) responsible for turmeric’s fame? Science provided the answer: The whole food, turmeric, is safe and effective. For years, Angel’s food has been sprinkled with the orange powder, turmeric. Happily, her lungs have remained stable.
Partnering with Jacob Carter, canine enthusiast, the focus shifted to dogs—our 5 dogs—and their healthful longevity: We decided to take action, every day, against inflammation, the root of chronic diseases. How? Our new formula, Turmeric Plus. The four ingredients in Turmeric Plus work in synergy to maximize the anti-inflammatory potency of turmeric.
Since then, new research has surfaced showing that turmeric is safe and effective for cats, as well as the b***os, horses, and various farm animals that our research had began with. Now we offer Turmeric Plus to both dogs and cats, and we have our new product, “Orange Equine,” for larger animals.
