Who developed Gold Standard herbs for animals?
Dr. Steve Marsden, a renowned veterinarian and expert in Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM), developed Gold Standard Herbs to bridge traditional Chinese herbal remedies with modern veterinary standards. Drawing from centuries-old TCM formulas, Dr Marsden updated these herbal blends to ensure they meet contemporary needs, prioritising safety, consistency, and scientific validation. His goal was to create reliable herbal products that are both effective and accessible, providing veterinarians and pet owners with trustworthy, cost effective supplements.
The modernisation of the formulas included rigorous scientific validation, quality control, and the use of standardised herbal ingredients to ensure reliability and potency in each product.
Dr Marsden’s approach preserved the time-tested benefits of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) but adapted it for contemporary veterinary needs, addressing issues like chronic pain, digestive disorders, and immune support. By combining TCM principles with advanced manufacturing and research, he ensured that these ancient formulas could be effectively integrated into modern veterinary practices and used confidently by pet owners seeking natural alternatives.
This blend of old and new has made Gold Standard Herbs a valuable bridge between Eastern and Western veterinary medicine, offering pet owners and veterinarians a holistic option grounded in both tradition and modern science.
