In a well functioning gut microbiome, the microbes in the gut help to digest the food your dog eats, producing beneficial compounds that help your dog stay healthy. These compounds are called “postbiotics.” Supplementing a healthy dog’s diet with the right postbiotics can boost their immune system and help them stay healthy. Postbiotics can further help dogs with imbalanced gut microbiomes by directly providing beneficial compounds that their gut microbiome may not produce in sufficient quantities that help with gut function and reduce inflammation.

Are there any risks associated with this supplement?

Does the palm oil ingredient come from sustainable sources?
Yes. We only use palm oil that has been certified by the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). The RSPO is an international not-for-profit organization that promotes environmentally and socially responsible practices in order to minimize the negative impacts of the palm oil industry. Less than 20% of the palm oil produced in the world earns the RSPO certification.
