something so simple - amazing. I sent the link to my vet to see if he has any views not so much on whether it may help (who would know, as you say) but if it's toxic to cats.  If it is proven to help humans long term, it usually takes years doesn't it, or it did with other human meds/supplements used in cats and dogs. At least 2 meds Swampy has had are off label and I have to sign when I get/got them as they aren't veterinary.
