For Pets
Clear
A daily bitter-root and berry blend for the bowl of the animal who shares your life.
Clear is an everyday companion blend in our Pets pillar — a gentle, food-grade blend made for the animal who eats the same kibble, drinks the same water, and walks the same ground every single day. The liver is the household's quiet workhorse: it sorts what comes in, packages what needs to leave, and keeps the blood clean so the rest of the body can simply do its work. Clear is built to stand beside that organ and its downstream pathways, day after day, so processing stays smooth and the animal stays bright.
Convergent botanicals carry this formula — schizandra, dandelion, burdock, and licorice — drawn together because every herbal tradition that ever kept animals and people well arrived at the same instinct: when you want the body to feel light and clear, you reach for the bitter roots and the cleansing berries the old herbalists kept for exactly this. This is bitter-and-rooty work — the Western and Greek-Galenic bitters, the bitter roots of African and Ayurvedic practice, and the East Asian clearing berries all pointing the same way — the oldest kind of housekeeping in the herbal cabinet, scaled gently for a cat, a dog, or a horse.
Reach for Clear when you want a steady, low-key daily ritual rather than a reaction to a bad day — for the companion eating a richer diet, the older animal whose systems have simply done a lot of living, or any pet whose person believes in keeping the machinery clean before it ever feels clogged. A pinch in the food bowl, scaled to the body in front of you, is the whole practice.
Like every GGG NATURAL Pets formula, Clear is grounded in species safety first. Licorice is included in a small, supporting share and the whole blend is dosed light and built slowly, so the formula meets the animal where it is rather than overwhelming a body far smaller than our own.

How it works
The science of Clear
Not buzzwords — the actual chemistry of the plants in this formula: their characterized compounds and the proteins those compounds are measured to engage, every one cited.
Clear's botanical character is not folklore alone — it is written into the chemistry of its four plants. Schizandra berry is unusually rich in a family of lignans (schisandrin, schisandrin B, gomisin A, schisantherin A) that classical East Asian practice prized and that our own molecular layer maps to measurable activity in characterized enzyme systems. In the herbal frame these are food-grade compounds the body recognizes and uses to keep its primary processing organ working with ease.
Dandelion and burdock are the bitter-root half of the blend, and bitterness is functional. Dandelion's triterpenes (taraxasterol, taraxerol) and its caffeic, chlorogenic, and chicoric acids are the classic bile-and-digestion signature that Western herbalists from Culpeper forward read as the bitter-bile signature — the bitter taste itself the tradition tied to a clean, light constitution. Burdock root carries arctiin, arctigenin, luteolin, and a generous load of inulin, a storage fiber the body reads as food, part of the body's natural clearing through blood, lymph, and skin — the affinities African, Greek-Galenic, and East Asian root traditions all assigned to it.
Licorice rounds the formula as the harmonizer, the role it has held in nearly every herbal system that uses it. Its glycyrrhizin, glycyrrhetinic acid, and liquiritigenin make it the great reconciler that softens the bitter roots and ties the blend together into one smooth, palatable whole. Across these plants the through-line is the chemistry tradition prized for clean, easy processing — food-grade botanical character the body recognizes and uses, rather than a remedy aimed at any condition.
The molecules, measured
A formula is a community of compounds. Below are active molecules from the herbs in this blend and the proteins each is measured to engage — the precise points where the plants meet biology. So you see not just that it works, but how.
Schisandra chinensis

In practice
Who it’s for, and how to use it
Who it’s for
For the companion animal — cat, dog, or horse — whose person wants to keep the bitter-root tradition in the daily bowl every day. A natural fit for animals on richer diets, older companions whose systems have simply done a lot of living, and any pet whose people believe in keeping the machinery clean and the body light before it ever feels otherwise.
How to use it
Stir a small amount of the dilute hot-water extract or powder into food, scaled to the animal's body weight. Start low and build gradually over several days, letting the animal grow accustomed to the bitter-root character. As a daily clearing ritual it is meant to be steady and low-key rather than occasional. Always scale to the body in front of you — a cat's share is a fraction of a large dog's or a horse's.

What’s inside
We named this one Clear because that is the feeling we want for the animal at the other end of the leash — light, bright, and easy in its own body. It is a circle of roots and berries doing the oldest work in the herbal cabinet: keeping the liver company while it does its quiet, faithful job. Start with a pinch, watch your friend, and let the ritual settle in. Thank you for caring for them this well.
