Other Ingredients (10)
MaltodextrinBinder
Spikes blood sugar faster than table sugar (glycemic index 85–105). Research links it to gut bacteria changes that may promote intestinal inflammation (Nickerson et al. 2015). Used as a cheap filler — adds nothing beneficial.

A FODMAP sugar alcohol that can cause GI distress (bloating, gas, diarrhea) at moderate doses (>10-20g/day), though supplement amounts are typically small. Extremely toxic to dogs — households with pets should store securely.
Tapioca DextrinCarrier
A starch hydrolysate from tapioca used as a carrier and flow agent
