HeartWorm Free - A Natural Heartworm Treatment

HeartWorm Free, also known as HWF, is an all-natural herbal treatment that helps your doggie fight heartworm, aka dirofilariasis imminitis, as demonstrated in clinical studies. HeartWorm Free is useful for heartworm positive dogs.

This natural HeartWorm Free remedy is not to be used as heartworm preventative, but a natural heartworm preventative will be available soon. (In the meantime, please check out our Only Natural Pet HW Protect Herbal Formula.)

Natural HeartWorm Free will kill the heartworms slowly over a period of time, allowing your dog's immune system to help eliminate the heartworm from its body.

Because HeartWorm Free works slowly your dog does not need to be confined, as required by traditional heartworm treatment. Your dog can continue to play as he or she normally would, not allowing "over-exertion" such as racing or breeding.

Within weeks, you may notice an increase in energy and a decrease in symptoms such as coughing and weakness and a healthier coat.

HeartWorm Free Ingredients

HeartWorm Free is made without Black Walnut and Wormwood:

• Black Walnut was found to be a high allergen causing hives and other types of allergies.
• Wormwood has been known to depress the central nervous system and can cause mind-altering changes leading to psychosis when used over long periods of time (usually months).

HWF was therefore developed so that, in the long run, it may be more beneficial to your dog.

HeartWorm Free is an all-natural herbal remedy that contains human grade herbs:

• Apricot Pits - Contains small amounts of a naturally occurring cyanide
• Black Seed - An overall tonic herb known for its effectiveness on the respiratory system, stomach, intestinal tract, kidney, liver, circulatory and immune system, and is also an anti-parasitic
• Garlic - Helps repel parasites, is anti-microbial, stimulates immune system, antioxidant, lowers blood pressure, and is an overall tonic
• Grapefruit Seed Extract - Used for viral, bacterial, and fungal infections, and also rids the body of parasites
• Hawthorn - Strengthens heart structures and functions (tonic), lowers blood pressure, is a nutritive and antioxidant
• Hops - Used as a diuretic
• Licorice - Supports lung tissue, blood cleansing, is anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial, and stimulates immune system (immunostimulant)
• Sorrel - Cleans the vessels of parasites
• Flavorings - To make it more palatable
• Alcohol - Intensifies the activity of the HWF herbal tincture while acting as a natural preservative
• Distilled Water

What Is Heartworm?

Heartworm disease is a serious and potentially fatal condition caused by parasitic worms living in the arteries of the lungs and in the right side of the heart of dogs, cats, and other species of mammals, including wolves, foxes, ferrets, sea lions, horses, and humans. Heartworms are classified as nematodes (roundworms) and are but one of the many species of roundworms. The specific roundworm causing heartworm in dogs and cats is known as Dirofilaria imminitis.

Dogs or other animals harboring adult worms are the recognized reservoir of infection. Adult worms produce the offspring that circulate in the blood and are then transmitted to mosquitoes once they bite the infected animal. These offspring (microfilariae) undergo development to an infective larval stage within 14 days in the mosquito, and can then be transmitted to another host (such as a cat) or back to another dog, when the infected mosquito bites again.

The infective heartworm larvae travel through a tubular organ within the mosquito's head and are injected into the skin of a new host animal through the mosquito bite wound. In the dog, the larvae progress in their development to an adult form of the worm, and live in the heart and pulmonary vessels, where they continue the life cycle and cause extensive injury. In the cat, the larvae molt as well, but fewer worms survive to adulthood. While dogs suffer severe heart and lung damage from heartworm infection, cats typically exhibit minimal changes in the heart. The cat's primary response to the presence of heartworms occurs in the lungs.

Within the dog, the time frame between initial infection and growth to adult worms is approximately six to seven months, eventually arriving in the heart and pulmonary vessels where they begin to produce new offspring.

In cats, it takes seven to eight months before adult worms arrive in the heart and pulmonary vessels. In most cases, the life cycle of the heartworm ends here since microfilaria are produced in less than 20% of cats.

Some worms may get up to 3 feet long. Heavy infestation of heartworms will cause swelling in the lungs, pulmonary arteries, kidney and heart, which will eventually cause the animal to die. Heartworm infestation can also cause anemia and liver damage.

What Are The Symptoms Of Heartworm?

Symptoms of heartworm may include loss of appetite, lethargy, exercise intolerance, weight loss, fever, dyspnea (difficult, labored breathing, shortness of breath), coughing, weakness, dull dry coat, and hemorrhage.

MUST READ: Killing heartworms can be dangerous for your animal. Dead worms can clog small blood vessels causing organs to fail making it imperative that your animal be confined to a small space to try to prevent this from happening. Older, sick, or pregnant animals may not be able to tolerate traditional veterinary treatment and some dogs are simply sent home to die without care, as the traditional heartworm medications would kill the dog. This is why HeartWorm Free was created. HeartWorm Free's slow method of treatment has its benefits, which allows the dog to recover slowly. HeartWorm Free works well for all dogs, young, elderly, and can even be used for pregnant dogs. The suggested dose for pregnant dogs is one half the recommended dose, while the female is pregnant, and then the full dose can be resumed as soon as she has her puppies. HeartWorm Free does not require your dog to be confined.

Keep in mind you are working with heartworms. The heart is a vital organ. Any time you work with the heart you take a risk. The heartworms can dislodge and go anywhere in the system. The heart can become weakened from the heartworms. Heartworms can get up to 3 feet long. If a dog is harboring a 3-foot long heartworm the time to rid the body of heartworms can be 36 weeks or longer. Depending on the severity of the heartworm infestation (and condition of the heart) will determine the results with the HeartWorm Free treatment. We do not guarantee the health of your dog, due to conditions out of our control.

During HeartWorm Free treatment: The kidneys will suffer much stress as they work hard to pull the worms through the system. We recommend putting your dog on Kidney Rejuvenator in addition to the HeartWorm Free to help eliminate some stress.

Completing the HWF Treatment: Once your pet has completed the HWF - Put your dog on a heartworm preventative and give a full body detox using the Internal Gold Detox Kit for 1 month (2 months if the Kidney Rejuvenator was not used during HWF treatment) or wait 3 months and have your dog retested.

After the heartworms expire, they can stay in the system for a period of time. It is up to the body to dissolve the heartworms and process them through the kidneys and the urine. If you had your dog tested with dead heartworms in the system, the test will still show a positive result.

Suggested Use

1. Shake well before use.
2. Do not exceed the recommended dose!
3. Give orally twice a day according to the weight of the dog for 16 to 36 weeks, depending on the severity of the infestation (read the entire pamphlet that comes with the HWF).
4. HeartWorm Free is best absorbed in the mouth, so it is recommended to dose directly into the mouth and not be given in food. (It is flavored with a grilled steak / caramel flavor, so most dogs will like this. However, some dogs will dislike the alcohol that's in HWF, so you can, if necessary, put it in bread to absorb some of the alcohol.)
5. Do not exceed the recommended dose!
6. Do not use in conjunction with a heartworm preventative, as this will make your dog take longer to test heartworm negative. No preventative is needed while your dog is on the HWF.
7. Do not use Life Cell Support (in the Internal Gold Detox Kit) until after the HeartWorm Free treatment is completed.

Kidney Rejuvenator can be used during treatment to keep the kidneys free and clear (recommended most if your dog is exhibiting symptoms).

HWF is safe to give to pregnant dogs at one-half (1/2) the normal dose while pregnant, and then giving the full dose once her puppies are born. This will help prevent her infestation from getting worse while pregnant. Depending on her level of infestation while pregnant, she may need to be treated a little longer than the 4 month cycle, since she would be on 1/2 the normal dose while pregnant.

Additional heart support: Feeding "heart" (beef, chicken, pork, turkey, etc.) helps nourish the heart and is excellent in cases where the heart is deficient in situations such as heart disease, heartworms, etc.

If your dog is on the HWF longer than 24 weeks, take her off for a 3 week break, then continue if needed. Have your dog retested 2 weeks after you have detoxed the system (using the Internal Gold Detox Kit) or 3 months after treatment is completed.

Be sure to put your dog on a heartworm preventative after you have stopped the HWF treatment.

HeartWorm Free is designed to act slowly to eliminate the need to keep your dog confined. Do not allow breeding, racing, or over-exerting. The average time for a dog with a moderate infestation of heartworms is 16 weeks. Depending on the severity of your dog's heartworm infestation, you may need to treat your dog for a longer period of time, especially if your dog has a heavy infestation of heartworms.

Although most of our dogs recover on the 16 week course, not all dogs will. If money is an issue and the test after using HWF resulted in a low positive, you can use a heartworm preventative instead of the HWF to finish eliminating the heartworms. Just know it can take 6 months to 1-1/2 years for a test to show a negative result using the heartworm preventative versus just a few more months on the HWF. The longer your dog has heartworms, the bigger the risk one is taking for heart, lung, pulmonary arteries, kidney, or liver damage.

How Many 4 oz. Bottles Of HeartWorm Free Will You Need?

Please note: A syringe is included with each bottle of HeartWorm Free.

Note that HeartWorm Free is given by mouth with an oral syringe, so you do not need to inject it into your dog or puppy's skin or muscles.

HeartWorm Free has a 4 year shelf life.

This chart may be used as a guide only. It is not a guarantee. Be sure to weigh your dog before starting the HeartWorm Free. The approximately length of time it will take to treat your dog is as follows:

Every dog is different and some will respond more readily than others.

Remember, heartworm can get up to 3 feet long. The dog's body has to dissolve all the dead heartworms in order for your dog to test heartworm negative. This is why dogs that test a high positive for heartworm will need a little more treatment time and why we recommend the Kidney Rejuvenator below for the more heavily infested cases.

Kidney Rejuvenator can help your dog eliminate the dead heartworm from the body more quickly. Dead microfilaria are filtered through the kidneys. Your dog's kidneys can become overwhelmed with microfilaria and not eliminate them as quickly as they should. Kidney Rejuvenator can help cleanse the kidneys making it easier to eliminate the dead microfilaria and in many cases make it easier on the dog, hasten their recovery from heartworm, and help them to test heartworm negative more quickly.

Warning:

1. Keep out of reach of children.
2. Do not give to cats.
3. Apricot pits contain small amounts of naturally occuring cyanide.
4. Some anti-flea products that contain chemicals such as Ivermectin can interfere with HeartWorm Free, rendering it less effective, or even ineffective.
5. Do not use in conjunction with a traditional heartworm preventative.

We do not recommend using a heartworm preventative at the same time you are treating your pet for heartworm with HeartWorm Free.
