Strengths
- Provides multiple fiber sources like psyllium and rice bran, which can help promote a sense of fullness and regular stools.
- Includes L-carnitine and chromium, which are often used to support fat metabolism and healthy blood sugar regulation.
- Contains several probiotic strains that may support digestive health and a balanced gut microbiome.
- Powder form allows flexible dosing for both dogs and cats of different sizes.
Considerations
- Contains whey and soy lecithin, so it is not a good choice for pets with dairy or soy allergies.
- Chicken liver flavor may trigger symptoms in pets with chicken allergies or strict elimination diets.
- This is a supplement, not a complete diet, so it must always be used with a balanced pet food.
- Any weight-loss plan should be supervised by a veterinarian, especially for pets with existing health conditions.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Psyllium Seed Husk
Psyllium seed husk is a soluble, fermentable fiber derived from the psyllium plant commonly added to pet foods and supplements to bulk and regulate stools, helping relieve constipation, normalize diarrhea, assist hairball passage in cats, and support colonic health. Because it swells when hydrated, it must be given with plenty of water to avoid esophageal or intestinal obstruction, can alter absorption of some oral medications, and should be introduced gradually and used under veterinary guidance rather than as a source of calories or protein.
02
Chicken Liver Flavor
Chicken liver flavor is used primarily as a palatability enhancer in dog and cat foods, made from concentrated chicken liver extracts or flavoring compounds to improve aroma and taste rather than to serve as a significant protein source. Although liver-derived flavors can contribute trace amounts of B vitamins, iron and vitamin A, inclusion levels are typically small, so they shouldn’t be relied on for nutrition; pets with liver-related dietary restrictions, sensitivities, or a history of pancreatitis may warrant caution and owners should consult their veterinarian if concerned.
03
Rice Bran
Rice bran, the nutrient-rich outer layer of the rice kernel, is used in pet foods as a source of dietary fiber, energy-dense fats, and micronutrients (B vitamins, vitamin E and trace minerals) and can help improve palatability and stool quality. It can be a useful ingredient for dogs (and to a lesser extent cats) but is high in oil and can go rancid unless stabilized, contains phytates that may affect mineral absorption, and can concentrate contaminants like inorganic arsenic, so it should be sourced and processed carefully and not be relied on as a primary protein for obligate carnivores.
04
Vitamin E
Vitamin E is a fat‑soluble vitamin and antioxidant commonly added to dog and cat foods both as an essential nutrient and to protect fats and fat‑soluble vitamins from oxidation. It supports immune function, healthy skin and coat, and cellular protection; deficiency is uncommon in complete diets, while excessive supplemental doses are unnecessary and very high amounts may interfere with blood clotting or interact with certain medications.
05
Chia
Chia is used in pet foods as a plant‑based source of soluble and insoluble fiber, plant protein, antioxidants and omega‑3 fatty acids (primarily ALA), often included to support digestion and skin/coat condition. While chia’s fiber and mucilaginous properties can aid gut motility and hydration, dogs and especially cats convert ALA poorly to EPA/DHA so it should not replace marine sources of long‑chain omega‑3s; it is calorie‑dense and may cause gastrointestinal upset if introduced abruptly or fed in large amounts, so use in moderation.
