What are functional ingredients in pet food? I’ve heard this term used quite often lately, and I was curious to learn more about these ingredients and the benefits that they could have for our pets. Nutrition is my top concern when it comes to caring for our pets. Proper nutrition has a direct link on our pets’ overall health and wellness, so in my opinion it should be the first thing on every owners’ mind.
Dr. Jennifer Adolphe is the Senior Nutritionist at Petcurean, a company devoted to creating premium pet food. I knew Dr. Adolphe would have some advice for pet owners about functional ingredients and what we should be looking for when shopping for pet food.
