Then we imprint vibrational technology into the final product to ensure your pet enjoys the healthy blood sugar and vitality nature truly intended.
Scientifically Researched Homeopathic Ingredients
The natural active homeopathic ingredients in Dia-IonX™ are the key to your pet’s success. All of our homeopathic ingredients are listed with the US Pharmacopoeia and the US FDA, and are scientifically verified to relieve diabetes symptoms and promote overall health and vitality in pets.
The all-natural homeopathic ingredients used to create Dia-Ionx™ are:
Aceticum Acidum, Arsenicum Album, Bryonia Alba, Calcarea Carbonica, Iris Versicolor, Kali Phosphoricum, Lacticum Acidum, Lycopodium Clavatum, Natrum Phosphoricum, Phosphoricum Acidum, Phosphorus, Plumbum Metallicum, Uranium Nitricum
Prepared at a potent 10X, 20X, and 30X dilution, these homeopathic ingredients are stabilized in our organic trace mineral blend for maximum absorption and healing response.
Proprietary Oligotherapeutic Blend
Dia-IonX™ uses a proprietary blend of 74 organic trace minerals and elements to help increase your pet’s vitality and provide optimal delivery of our active homeopathic ingredients.
Oligotherapy is the use of trace minerals to support enzymatic function, and can speed up your pet’s metabolism on the cellular level. When delivered in the bioavailable liquid form, this blend can bypass your pet’s digestive system and immediately enter the bloodstream – providing the fastest, easiest and safest relief for your pet.
The oligotherapeutic blend in Dia-IonX™ will work on the cellular level to help your pet recover and repair damage caused by diabetes. Dia-IonX™ . . .
- Supports increased cell permeability
A permeable cell membrane allows the nutrients your pet needs to be easily absorbed and used in the cells. What does this mean for your pet? Better nutrition and better overall health. For you, this means a better value for the money you spend on your pet’s food and medicine, as each component will be more effectively absorbed and used in your pet’s body.
- Promotes the formation of RNA and DNA
This helps your pet’s cells regenerate more effectively, contributing to their genetic stability and health. Cell regeneration is essential for your pet’s healing process.
- Increases enzymatic activity
By providing a catalyst for the natural enzymes in your pet’s body, Dia-IonX™ helps enhance your pet’s overall health.
- Detoxifies cells
Your pet’s inevitable everyday exposure to toxins can cause a buildup of heavy metals, chemicals, pesticides and other substances in your pet’s cells. Our oligotherapeutic base absorbs and neutralizes these toxins.
- Provides a powerful organic electrolyte
Our oligotherapeutic complex provides your pet with a highly effective natural electrolyte that supports cellular resistance to injury, illness, exertion, and malnourishment. This supports your pet’s recovery, healing and overall health.
- Increases oxygenation
Dia-IonX™ provides vital oxygen to your pet’s cells and promotes increased oxygen consumption of tissues. Natural polyphenols are present to act as catalysts for respiration. Oxygenation will greatly accelerate your pet’s healing process.
- Contains no alcohol!
Most homeopathic preparations contain alcohol, but alcohol can be irritating to your pet and does not promote healing as our oligotherapeutic base does. Dia-IonX™ is formulated without alcohol so your pet receives nothing but healing support.
Once our all-natural active homeopathic ingredients and oligotherapeutic base are in place, we imprint Dia-IonX™ with healing frequencies to ensure your pet receives optimal support for normal blood sugar and better overall health.
Cutting-Edge Vibrational Frequency Technology
Science has uncovered a key to health known as “Vibrational Frequency Technology”. Scientists have established that all living organisms operate on a particular frequency at the subatomic level. Higher frequencies are associated with good health, while lower frequencies with poor health.
When your pet’s frequency is higher, your pet is more likely to feel healthy and fit. We have imprinted Dia-IonX™ with this high vibration frequency, to help balance your pet’s overall well being.
We guarantee you that Dia-IonX™ will relieve your pet’s diabetes symptoms, help promote your pet’s normal blood sugar and support your pet’s better overall health. This is because Dia-IonX™ uses new technology in combination with with natural principles, minerals and nutrients that have been known to support healthy skin for hundreds of years.
With Dia-IonX™ you have nothing to lose, and your pet has everything to gain!
Dia-IonX™ Success Stories
Dog lovers like you choose Dia-IonX™ for natural success.
“I saw an immediate difference!!”
“I sought advice on the internet about symptoms my Pomeranian was having thinking it was diabetes and saw this site advertised. I have spent money before on supposed “flyers” so I offset the cost versus going to my Vet and that expense. I gave Taz the 30 drops the day I got it and have not looked back. I saw an immediate difference!!
Within 2 days my pet was no longer lethargic and was back to his old self. My faith in this product is such that I ordered the 5 bottles offer that week and will be re-ordering when my present supply runs out. Thanks so much for this wonderful product!!!”
- Duke B, Arizona 07/02/10
“I ordered more today and I’ll keep Tigger on Dia-IonX forever.”
“The vet said my doxie (Tigger) was pre-diabetic. I started noticing signs, weight gain, excessive thirst. I didn’t want to put him on shots every day, so I googled “dog’s diabetes” and found your site. He’s been on the Dia-IonX for three months now and I noticed a big difference. Lost weight, and not as thirsty.
I ran out of the product over a week ago and I noticed he is starting to get thirsty. He has been licking moisture off grass again, which he has not been doing when on Dia-IonX. I am soooo happy with this product, I guess running out taught me a lesson. I ordered more today and I’ll keep Tigger on Dia-IonX forever. Thank you for making this available for pets.”
- Marilyn L, Florida 05/13/10
“The change in her has been nothing short of miraculous!”
“I just wanted to give you an update on Panda. We have now finished the first bottle of Dia-IonX. I have been giving her 1/2 teaspoon twice a day. On Sunday she will have completed the two weeks on that dosage.
The change in her has been nothing short of miraculous! She is almost back to her old self. She will be 11 the end of this month.
She is still drinking more than she should and peeing more than she should. However, it is less than before she went on it. She is also
eating very well, has energy, is not sleeping all the time, is going for walks again, not throwing up and is even playing with her toys
once in awhile.
In May I am going to take her for another blood test to see how her levels are. I am very pleased with your product.
- Shelia R, Canada 04/12/10
“I am so happy to see the life come back in him.”
“I would like to thank you, my little Mini Pin’s blood sugar has dropped quite a bit since I started him on this. I am so happy to see the life come back in him. He is back to his old self again. Thanks once again for the help no one else could seem to help with.
Since I have been giving him the diabetic formula his water intake is less and also the trips outside.
I am very impressed with this product and so glad I tried it.”
- Tina W, Virginia 03/09/10
“He is thriving and doing well and now requires less insulin”
“Four years ago, while I was out of the country, my dog, Popeye, (a Schnoodle), was diagnosed with a severe case of diabetes. So severe, that the vets could not control his blood sugar and eventually he lost most of his beautiful fur, lost half his weight, developed cataracts in both eyes and went blind.
It became quite a task to control his blood sugar. He spend two months in the hospital until his vet felt he was stable enough to send home. He was on special diet designed by UC Davis and was on 4 units of Humulin R Insulin, 3 times daily.
However, one week later he was back in the hospital with all the diabetic symptoms and almost in diabetic coma. This went on for four months, back and forth from home to the hospital, at a cost of over $20,000. My dog meant everything to me, as I rescued him when he was 6 weeks old.
I couldn’t figure out why they were able to regulate him in the hospital. but I was unable to do so at home. The last time he went back to the hospital I requested that before they we ready to discharge Popeye home, that they take him off of the insulin IV and put him on his injections, like I give him at home, and do this for a period of 3 days.
When I picked him up, he was fine and I asked the vet what was the difference. Then, it occurred to me, that perhaps they were giving him his insulin IM, but my discharge instructions told me to give the injections sub-Q. There was the difference. Their discharge instructions were wrong and as soon as I started giving him his insulin IM, he was fine.
Then, I did some research about canines with Diabetes and came across Dia-IonX. I had everything to gain and nothing to lose by trying it, and today, 4 years later, Popeye is a miracle dog.
He is thriving and doing well and now requires less insulin per day than he did 4 years ago. Now, I have no proof that Dia-IonX is responsible for this, but I would NEVER take him off of it. I’ve also told my vet about it and he gives it to Popeye as well. By the way, Popeye is now 16 years old and you’d never know it by looking at him.”
- Jeffrey M, California 02/10/10
“The vet told me to stop the special food”
“My 5 month old puppy was diagnosed as being diabetic, and I was told by my vet that I would probably have to inject him daily, so I browsed the net for a natural remedy and I decided to order Dia-IonX. My vet was skeptical about the product, but said that I had nothing to lose. So I started giving him 30 drops Dia-IonX in his water daily, and for the 1st month I also gave him special dry food for diabetics.
His blood sugar level went down from 16.5 to 5.7 in 1 month, so the vet told me to stop the special food and continue with the drops. After the 2nd month his blood sugar level went down to 4.6, we were both really surprised. I have been giving him the drops for just over 1 year and his sugar level has been stable between 4.6 and 6. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who has a diabetic animal.”
- Mary Rose A, Malta 01/20/10
“My 10 year old dog Rudy had already gone blind and was dying when in desperation, I went to the net and found your product.
Dia-IonX is like a miracle. Rudy is so improved. Thanks so much for this product.
Maybe this is one of those steps toward human healing of diabetes?”
- Virginia F, Florida 04/12/10
“My dog Eddy has diabetes and has been on a two shot a day program for a year and a half. For the last year we have been giving him Dia-IonX daily. Two months ago during a routine checkup the vet stated Eddy’s blood work came back normal. We had talked with the vet previously about Dia-IonX and I was happy about the results. We are continuing the shots until we have used up the supply and we will only use Dia-IonX after that. The vet agreed, it’s a great product. Thank you.”
- Irene M, Florida 2/18/09
“It’s so nice not to have to give him injections anymore.”
“Hi, just a quick note to say thank you for your product Dia-IonX and some wonderful news. Our dog Prince has gone into remission with his diabetes. Apparently this sometimes happens when the Cushing’s syndrome is under control. But from the time we started him on your product his dosage of insulin went down considerably and the vet was quite impressed. So thanks again it’s so nice not to have to give him injections anymore.”
- Lisa F, Queensland Australia 10/27/08
“This is my 4th order of Dia-IonX. My vet thinks my dog is the fittest diabetic dog he has seen. Meg is 13 years old.”
- Ron C, United Kingdom 9/08/09
“Upon searching the internet, I found Dia-IonX as soon as Bobby was diagnosed with diabetes. Our Vet said we might be able to cut down on his insulin, but once a dog has diabetes, he will always have to use it. It took 2 weeks to get his insulin stable at 4 1/2 units. Then the following week, it was cut to 3 units. We took a 2 hour trip and Bobby started shaking about an hour into the trip. All I had was some honey packets, so we gave him some of that. Within a half hour, he was shaking again. We gave him the rest of the honey. He began shaking again, so we stopped and bought some candy (he loves it.) That stopped the shakes. Our Vet returned my call and told me to not give him anymore insulin and he would check his blood at our regular appointment the next day. His test came back 94….Low Normal! We were told to keep up what we were doing and forget the insulin and come back in a week. He wanted to know what we were giving Bobby. I told him Dia-IonX. He wants to know more about it and possibly recommend it to other patients. We are thrilled that Bobby doesn’t have to have the shots anymore. Thanks!”
- Velda C, California 7/26/09
“I have used this product Dia-IonX for over a year and am very happy I have! My diabetic dog is doing very well! I have lowered his insulin amount and attribute it to your wonderful product! I wouldn’t go without it! Thanks so very much! I am a grateful customer.”
- Bill D, Idaho 2/26/09

You should give your pet Dia-IonX™ in two ways: one, by adding a daily dose of Dia-IonX™ to your pet’s food or water, and two, by serving Dia-IonX™ directly into your pet’s mouth.

Q: How often do I give my pet Dia-IonX™?

Q: How safe is Dia-IonX™?
A: Dia-IonX™ is made with 100% natural ingredients and is guaranteed* to be completely safe with no negative side effects.
Q: Is Dia-IonX safe to give with insulin?
A: Yes, you can safely give Dia-IonX along with the prescribed insulin treatment. You will need to closely monitor your dog’s blood glucose levels in case you need to lower the insulin dosage. Watch closely for weakness or shakiness, which can be signs of hypoglycemia. Keep corn syrup or honey on hand to administer to your dog in case hypoglycemia occurs.
Q: How will I know when to reduce my dog’s insulin dosage?
A: As your dog improves with regular Dia-IonX usage, they may not need as much insulin because their blood glucose levels are normalizing. You will need to monitor their blood glucose levels closely to avoid hypoglycemia, which occurs with too much insulin. The symptoms of hypoglycemia may include lethargy, weakness in their legs, and shaking. You don’t want to just take them off of their insulin dosage, even if it seems that they are improving. Work with your veterinarian to slowly cut back their insulin dosage, and keep honey or corn syrup on hand to feed them in case of an emergency.
Q: What are the symptoms of diabetes in dogs?
A: You may notice symptoms of diabetes in your dog before it is diagnosed. The onset of diabetes usually takes place over the course of a few weeks, and your dog may start to drink water and urinate excessively, show rapid weight gain or loss, eat more than double their normal food intake or reject food entirely, experience weak or wobbly legs from diabetic neuropathy (nerve pain), or other symptoms. If you suspect that your dog has diabetes, you should take them to the veterinarian immediately to get them the care they need, and start lifestyle improvement strategies to manage the issue.
Q: If my dog is diabetic, what are the steps I should take to improve their health?
A: If your dog suffers from diabetes or pre-diabetes, there are steps you can take to regulate their condition and improve their health and quality of life. Taking Dia-IonX can help to relieve symptoms and to support detoxification, cellular hydration and healing. To get the diabetes regulated, you should also feed your dog only diabetes-approved food and treats, and give digestive enzymes with each meal. In addition, probiotics, MSM, and a fish oil supplement daily are helpful. Regular, moderate daily exercise is important because it facilitates the entry of glucose from the blood into the muscles. Dia-IonX will help utilize the supplements better, and together, there is a synergistic effect.
Q: I’m having difficulty giving insulin shots to my dog, what can I do?
A: It may be difficult to give your dog insulin shots, but your stress about giving the shots can be part of the difficulty you and your dog face. Before giving the shot, stay relaxed and give your dog a special treat, like a freeze-dried meat treat that is acceptable for diabetic dietary restrictions. This will keep the dog thinking more about the treat, and less about the shot. If the dog jumps around, try placing them on the counter to have a better grasp. Get assistance if needed. Follow the directions from your veterinarian and from the insulin package and you will have the shot administered in no time.
Q: What steps can I take to improve my dog’s health along with VETiONX products?
All VETiONX products (excluding Defendex) have homeopathic ingredients with an oligotherapeutic mineral base that help to stimulate the enzyme systems in the body and can act as a catalyst for healing. Along with taking the VETiONX product appropriate for treatment, dogs should be given a diet low in grain and gluten, focusing on preparing a raw diet of meat and vegetables when possible. Other dietary restrictions, such as for diabetic dogs, must also be taken into consideration. To optimize health, give enzymes with each meal, and a probiotic, MSM, and a fish oil daily. Provide your pet with chemical-free, purified water. Regular moderate exercise for your dog will help to maintain and improve their health and keep the body systems working properly.
Q: Can my pet safely take Dia-IonX™ with medications?
A: The ingredients in Dia-IonX™ are all natural and safe to use in conjunction with any other product. We recommend you consult your veterinarian if you have any concerns.
Q: Is it safe to give my pet Dia-IonX™ if all my pets drink from the same water bowl?
A: Dia-IonX™ is 100% natural and completely safe for all pets – even if they don’t have blood sugar issues. If you are still worried about your other pets, just use a separate water dish for your pet on Dia-IonX™.
Q: What exactly is oligotherapy?
A: Oligotherapy uses organic trace minerals to supplement the minerals necessary for enzyme functions in the body. This can speed up cellular metabolism and dramatically support your pet’s natural healing abilities. The proprietary oligotherapeutic blend in Dia-IonX™ is an effective stabilizing agent and catalyst for the active homeopathic ingredients, as opposed to alcohol, which is common to most homeopathic preparations but irritating to pets.
Q: What exactly is homeopathy?
A: Homeopathy is a safe and natural form of medicine that uses healing information from naturally occurring substances to relieve symptoms in the body. Since its inception in 1840, homeopathy has caused zero negative side effects, with an extremely high success rate.
Q: What is vibrational frequency technology and how does it enhance the product?
A: Vibrational frequency technology clears water of all toxins and residual frequencies, and then re-energizes to establish the frequency of living water. This process potentiates the effects of the homeopathic ingredients, making the product even more effective.
Q: How do your products differ from conventional products?
A: Our products are meant to address the symptoms AND root cause of your pet’s health problems, while conventional products typically only address the symptom. Look at it this way: if you’re driving your car and the “low oil” warning light comes on, you have two choices. You can address the symptom and disable the warning light, or you can address the “root cause” and fill up on oil.
Q: Will this product cause my pet to experience detoxification symptoms?
A: The oligotherapeutic base of this product is formulated to initiate a seamless detoxification process, but some sensitive bodies may experience initial detoxification effects. As minerals begin to activate enzymes and chelate toxins and metals, sensitive bodies may experience mild acute symptoms of canker sores in the mouth or loose stools with elimination. Do not be discouraged if your pet experiences these symptoms, for they are a sign that the body is beginning to heal.
Q: I still have more questions, who can I ask?
A: We are happy to answer your questions when you call toll-free 866.977.0888 or email service@vetionx.com.

Diabetes and Your Dog
Just like humans, dogs can develop diabetes. In fact, diabetes is becoming so common, it is now believed that one of every ten dogs in the world suffers from diabetes. There are two types of diabetes that affect dogs: diabetes insipidus and diabetes mellitus.
Diabetes insipidus is caused by a lack of the hormone that controls water resorption by the kidneys. Diabetes mellitus, the more common of the two types, is caused by a resistance to and lack of insulin similar to the human form of type II diabetes. Both types of diabetes are the result of defects in the hormone production in the body, though diabetes mellitus can be the result of an underactive lifestyle.
Dogs typically get diabetes when they are older, usually between the ages of seven to nine years old. The reproductive hormones place un-spayed female dogs at a higher risk than their male counterparts. Diabetes in dogs is often hereditary; if a dog’s parents had diabetes, it is more likely that their offspring will also develop diabetes. There are some dog breeds that are more susceptible to developing diabetes, such as Golden Retrievers, standard Poodles, miniature Pinschers and many more.
Causes of Diabetes in Dogs
In addition to predispositions to diabetes, dogs may also develop diabetes caused by different diseases. Certain diseases, especially diseases affecting the pancreas, may trigger abnormal production of the hormone insulin in your dog’s body.
Once your dog’s normal insulin process is disrupted, it will be much harder for your dog’s body to manage glucose and blood sugar levels, and your dog’s cells will have to work harder to receive the energy (glucose).
This is the point at which diabetes occurs in the dog and they may suffer from increased urination, excessive thirst, constipation, fatigue, indigestion, and dry mouth. Over time, the symptoms and degeneration of the body caused by diabetes can be life-threatening to dogs.
The use of steroids in your dog may also be a contributing factor to developing diabetes. Steroids are known to affect the normal functions of the pancreas and can lead to under production of insulin. Dogs that are given steroid shots on a regular basis can eventually develop diabetes.
Healthy Lifestyle Tips for Dog with Diabetes
Because obesity in dogs can lead to diabetes just as it can in people, dogs with diabetes need food and exercise that meets their optimal nutrition and activity needs.
Dog food should be chosen based on your dog’s age and physical condition. A ready-made option should be low-fat and low-carb, while providing a high protein and vitamin content. Check that the fiber content is high enough for your diabetic dog. You should avoid dog foods that are mostly carbohydrates and semi-moist dog foods that are usually high in sugar.
When you can, prepare your dog’s meals at home. This can save you money and possibly prevent future vet visits. The main components of a fresh prepared meal for your diabetic dog are:
- Skinless and cooked lean meats
- Par-boiled brown rice
- Mixed vegetables
- Eggs
- Diabetic dog biscuits.
The ideal feeding schedule should be in sync with any medical treatments for the dog. Be careful not to overfeed.
Exercise is a sure fire way to reduce the obesity and diabetes symptoms in dogs; plus it is good for the owner to get exercise too!
Start off easy if your dog hasn’t been exercising much; go for short walks, preferably several times a day. Make sure your dog is properly hydrated before and after the walk, and wait to feed until after the walk, once they your dog has had some water and has stopped panting.
These simple lifestyle changes will greatly improve your diabetes management program and quality of life for your dog. Still, you may find your dog needs daily blood sugar support, as well as relief of irritating diabetes symptoms such as dry mouth, increased thirst or appetite, fatigue, indigestion, increased urination and constipation.
