The Effect of Cordyceps on Benign Mammary Tumors in Dogs: Consultation with a Laboratory＜Cordy Research Laboratory＞

Is it effective for benign mammary tumors?

We often receive inquiries from pet owners whose dogs or cats have been diagnosed with benign mammary tumors. Cordy can be expected to have an effect on benign tumors as well, so please consider this as a reference.

I have an 8-year-old Toy Poodle. During a grooming session, I was told there is a lump in the mammary gland, and after a cytology test at our local vet, it was diagnosed as a benign tumor. However, since the tumor is still small, it was recommended to perform surgery sooner rather than later.

Although my dog is healthy and has a good appetite, I am honestly scared of subjecting my beloved dog to anesthesia. While researching other options besides surgery, I came across the Cordy Laboratory.

There is a 50% chance that mammary tumors in dogs are malignant. While the current tumor is benign, benign tumors can grow larger over time and exhibit similar behaviors to malignant tumors. If the tumor grows larger, the surgery would require longer anesthesia and the incision would be bigger.

Since your dog is still relatively young at 8 years old and has a good appetite, the risk associated with anesthesia is not considered very high. However, as your dog enters the senior phase of life, the immune system will gradually weaken, which can lead to tumor growth.

Before any anesthesia procedure, a blood test is always conducted. If there are no issues with the blood test, surgery might be worth considering.

However, if you are particularly fearful of surgery, maintaining and boosting your dog’s immune system can help suppress tumor cell activity.

Cordy is being researched to see if it can suppress tumor cell activity by restoring the regulatory function of the immune system.

It’s generally very safe and can be administered even to dogs with lower energy levels. There are clinical reports of Cordy being administered to dogs and cats with benign and malignant mammary tumors.

Additionally, unless your dog has respiratory issues, heart disease, or epilepsy, you can use organic germanium to promote blood flow, eliminate toxins from the body, and alleviate pain.

As dogs enter the senior phase, circulation can become sluggish. Enhancing circulation and detoxifying the body with organic germanium can stabilize the immune system.

*We recommend avoiding supplements containing organic germanium if your dog is a brachycephalic breed with rapid breathing at rest, or has pulmonary diseases, heart diseases, or epilepsy.

For dogs with frequent loose stools or constipation, giving supplements containing probiotics to improve gut health is also recommended.

Switching to a low-carbohydrate, high-protein diet can help prevent the activation of tumor cells and potentially suppress tumor growth.

At our laboratory, we are conducting research to ascertain whether Cordy can modulate the immune system and demonstrate efficacy against cancer. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact us.
