Abstract: A pet hormone loss supplement composition to mitigate sex hormone loss of mammal pets that have been spayed or neutered. This proprietary formulation is comprised of a specific combination of well-known supplements or food that are generally regarded as safe (GRAS) and serendipitously share either phyto estrogen or phyto androgen properties of sufficient magnitude so as to be considered either a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM) or Selective Androgen Receptor Modulator (SARM) activity. These individual supplements of SERM and SARM properties (a novel and unique combination to maximize the number of hormone receptor site activation) provide a similar and sufficient array of sex hormone mimic activity so as to constitute a functional sex hormone supplement; helping to blunt or eliminate many hormone deficiency effects resulting from spaying or neutering and thus improve health span and possibly life span by more nearly replicating a natural hormone milieu.
