Hi. My dog has had giardia and after a number of treatments we don't know what else to do, the diarrea and green mucus keeps reapearing in her stools. Does anyone have this problem? Anyone has to live with this problem that seems not to have a cure that works for good? Thank you.

found this on the internet: (Couldn't hurt to try)
Coconut oil may provide an effective defense against many troublesome parasites including giardia. Like bacteria and fungi, giardia can't stand up against MCFA found in coconut oil. Research has confirmed the effectiveness of MCFA in destroying giardia and possibly other protozoa.5,6,7 By using coconut oil and other coconut products every day, you may be able to destroy giardia before it can establish a toehold. In so doing you also eliminate the possibility of developing food allergies, chronic fatigue, and other related symptoms. If you're currently troubled with these conditions, coconut oil used liberally with meals may provide a source of relief. Because MCFA are quickly absorbed by the tissues and converted into energy it seems logical that those suffering from chronic fatigue would gain a great deal of benefit. Foods prepared with coconut oil, or even fresh coconut make a great energy booster.

Thank you very much for your advice, I will try coconut oil, and yes, she does get tired easily.
