Did you know that sea vegetables are considered to be a bio-available whole food, also defined as a complete dietary source, which can be fed daily to dogs and cats? Sea vegetables have been studied for their positive effects on longevity, balanced immunity and general health and wellness. Many experts suggest that the rising rate of diseases and conditions in dogs and cats may be due to a lack of preventative nutrients in our pet's food. Often, commercial and holistic foods are missing vitamins, vital trace nutrients, and plant-based ingredients that are essential for canine and feline health.

KELP may provide necessary nutrients typically lacking in modern diets that feed critical organs of the lymphatic system including bone marrow, the spleen, thymus and gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT), which is the lymphatic tissue associated with the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, which may help to provide biochemical support for healthy immune cells and tissues, and may help to support optimal immunity. Sea veggies are also rich in iodine which may support healthy endocrine gland and thyroid function. (* As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system)
