When extracting the medicinal properties from a herb, a base such as glycerin or alcohol is used. If alcohol is used and meets certain criteria, it is known as a tincture.
We use non-GMO vegetable glycerin as our base to extract the medicinal benefits from each herb safely. This also helps improve palatability and ensures the supplements are safe for long-term use.
It's worth noting that glycerin is considered to have zero net carbs, making it a suitable ingredient for diabetic pets. Both the FDA and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) classify vegetable glycerine as a safe and functional preservative when added to pet food.
The dosage twice daily does not contain enough glycerin to cause a spike.
Our supplements are veterinarian-formulated, have been on the market for 25 years, and have been clinically researched at universities. Safety and efficacy are our top priorities.
