Minerals are essential nutrients that play a vital role in pets’ overall health and well-being, just as they do in humans. These minerals are critical for various physiological functions, including bone formation, nerve function, enzyme activity, and maintaining proper fluid balance in the body. Pet food manufacturers carefully formulate their products to ensure they provide a balanced and complete diet for pets. Including minerals helps prevent nutritional deficiencies and supports the overall health of animals.
CALCIUM CARBONATE, the same active ingredient as in TUMS®, provides essential mineral calcium for strong teeth and bones and can act as a preservative.
CALCIUM IODATE is a source of the essential mineral iodine, which is a mineral used by the body for proper thyroid function.
CHOLINE CHLORIDE is necessary for brain function, the synthesis of neurotransmitters, and healthy fat metabolism.
COPPER PROTEINATE is a chelated mineral source of copper, an important mineral for the absorption of iron and the formation of skin and hair pigmentation.
COPPER SULFATE is a source of copper, an important mineral for the absorption of iron and the formation of skin and hair pigmentation.
DICALCIUM PHOSPHATE provides essential minerals, calcium, and phosphorous for strong teeth and bones. it can also improve the texture of the food.
FERROUS SULFATE is a source of iron that helps create a healthy immune system, produce energy, hemoglobin, and myoglobin, and oxygenate red blood cells.
