It was recomended to me to wean pups to solids. I can't speak for the pups but no ill iffects. Stools were normal, and no tummy upsets. I used it for a sore throat. Worked wonders. I recomended it to a cancer patient who was having trouble getting food down she had positive results. And it has many nutrients.

Using it for diverticulosis as I was told it aide in healing. Working for me but I am taking it with a regular regime of Apple cider vinegar, honey, probiotics, oat bran, tumeric , fennel and l-glutamine and I now use coconut oil for cooking. It is all helping!
