⚠️ Even small amounts of xylitol can cause hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), seizures, liver failure or even death in dogs. The higher the amount your dog eats, the greater the risk of liver failure complications.

Manufacturers extract xylitol (also called birch sugar) from birch trees, corn fiber, hardwoods and other vegetable matter. It’s made into a white powder that looks and tastes like sugar. It’s about as sweet as sucrose but contains about half the calories, and it doesn’t cause blood sugar spikes.

👉 Here's where xylitol/birch sugar is hiding:
* Drink powders
* Cough drops and syrups
* Instant coffee
* BBQ sauce and ketchup
* Vitamins
* Candy and chocolates
* Toothpaste and mouthwash
* Chewing gum and mints
* Peanut butter, jam, pancake syrup
* Pudding

When a dog eats something containing xylitol, it’s quickly absorbed into the bloodstream. This causes a potent release of insulin from the pancreas. This rapid release of insulin results in a profound drop in the level of blood sugar (hypoglycemia). And it can happen within 10 to 60 minutes of ingestion. Untreated, this hypoglycemia is often life-threatening.

But ... if you know your dog is poisoned with xylitol, you need to get your dog to the vet for an intra-muscular shot of glutathione. Glutathione is the "king of antioxidants" and is found in every cell. The liver is the major organ of detoxification and desperately needs glutathione to stay healthy ... especially in poisoning emergencies like this. Giving it orally doesn't work ... it must be injected directly.

Most compounding pharmacies can prepare this for you as an intramuscular solution that you can take to your vet or emergency clinic.
