I was delighted to have been asked to contribute to this topic by Pet Food Processing, a trusted resource for the news and trends impacting the pet food and pet treat processing industry from ingredients, formulation, operations and food safety.
Demands from owners for ever improving nutrition options for their dogs requires pet food manufacturers to identify nutrients that help to support our dogs’ best health. One of the nutrient categories of increasing interest are nutraceuticals.
Views on the benefits nutraceuticals offer for dogs’ health in this article were also provided by two of the industry’s most advanced suppliers, Cargill and Kemin.

The importance of functional foods, and the impact on our dogs’ health and wellbeing cannot be underestimated and at Bonza we couldn’t be more proud of our role in driving the use of nutraceuticals in their daily feeding regime.
Our mission at Bonza is to Transform Your Dog’s Mealtimes Into A Powerful Act of Care.
