Whole-food sourceWhat it is

Why it’s in Pawbiotix
Kelp helps the ingredient panel feel more food-based and familiar, which many owners prefer when they are comparing supplements and want to actually recognize what is on the label.
How it supports the formula

Food-based source
A whole-food sea vegetable that owners can recognize, not an unfamiliar isolated additive.
2
Trace minerals
Kelp naturally carries iodine and trace minerals as part of its make-up.
3
Familiar label

Good to know before you buy
