Other Ingredients (12)

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.

XylitolSweetener

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.

Natural Cherry FlavorFlavor

A flavoring derived from natural cherry sources

Silicon DioxideAnti-caking

Fine silica powder used to prevent clumping

Beetroot Juice PowderColorant

Natural red colorant and mild flavoring derived from beetroot; often spray-dried onto maltodextrin carrier

Calcium CarbonateBuffer

Common calcium salt used as a buffering agent, filler, or mineral fortification in supplements

Microcrystalline CelluloseBinder

Plant-derived cellulose used as a binder and filler in supplements

Citric AcidAcidulant

Natural acid derived from citrus fruits
