Top Pick
This vegan broth powder is best thought of as a flavorful topper or supplement rather than a complete diet. It offers a plant-based option with added omega fatty acids from microalgae and mushroom powder for dogs who tolerate yeast and vegetable ingredients well. It can work nicely for owners looking to boost moisture and palatability in an otherwise balanced food.

Where these benefits come from
Benefits the manufacturer highlights in its own product marketing. KibbleLab lists them for reference and does not verify these claims.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- High protein content for a topper, primarily from yeast ingredients rather than meat sources.
- Includes marine microalgae oil, which supplies omega-3 fatty acids without using fish oil.
- Contains vegetable powders and champignon mushroom powder that can add phytonutrients and fiber.
- Powdered format mixes easily with water, making it a simple way to increase moisture intake.
Considerations
- This is not a complete and balanced food, so it should only be used alongside a nutritionally complete diet.
- Yeast-based ingredients can be an issue for dogs with known sensitivities to yeast or related components.
- Natural salmon flavor may be a concern if your dog has a fish allergy, even though the product is plant-powered.
- Salt is included, so it may not be ideal in large amounts for dogs that need a restricted-sodium plan.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Yeast Extract
Yeast extract is a concentrated, water‑soluble ingredient used primarily as a natural flavor enhancer and palatant in pet foods, while also supplying soluble proteins, free amino acids, nucleotides and B‑group vitamins. It can improve palatability and provide small supportive nutrients for metabolism and digestive/immune health, but may contain notable sodium and could be a concern for animals with yeast sensitivity or those on sodium‑restricted or renal prescription diets—consult your veterinarian if unsure.
02
Natural Flavor
Natural flavor is used primarily as a palatability enhancer in pet foods to improve taste and aroma and is not intended to provide significant nutrients, typically coming from concentrated extracts of meat, poultry, plant, or fermentation sources. While it can increase acceptance in picky dogs and cats, manufacturers are not required to disclose specific sources so pets with known sensitivities or allergies may react, and presence of natural flavor should not be taken as a guarantee of overall product quality.
03
Salt
Salt (sodium chloride) is used in pet foods as a flavor enhancer, mild preservative and a source of essential electrolytes (sodium and chloride), and is often provided in iodized form to help meet iodine requirements for thyroid function; these minerals support nerve and muscle function and fluid balance in dogs and cats. Small, controlled amounts are nutritionally important, but excessive salt can cause dehydration, worsen heart or kidney disease and, in extreme cases, lead to salt toxicity, so pet owners should avoid adding extra table salt or high‑sodium human foods and follow veterinary guidance for animals with medical conditions.
04
Sweet Potato
Sweet potato is used in pet foods as a digestible carbohydrate and source of soluble fiber, vitamins (notably beta‑carotene), minerals and antioxidants, often helping with stool quality and serving as a binder or energy ingredient. It is generally well tolerated by dogs and can support gut health, but because cats poorly convert beta‑carotene to vitamin A and require preformed vitamin A from animal sources, sweet potato is not a substitute for meat-based nutrients; its relatively high carbohydrate content also means portion control is advised for overweight or diabetic pets and it should be cooked for best digestibility.

05
Yeast
Yeast (such as brewer’s, nutritional yeast, or yeast extracts) is used in pet foods as a palatability enhancer, a supplemental protein and B‑vitamin source, and for functional components like beta‑glucans and mannans that can support immune and gut health. It can help with appetite, skin/coat quality and digestion, but some pets may be allergic, product strains and processing vary in quality, and higher purine or added-salt levels in certain yeast products can be a concern for animals with specific medical or dietary restrictions.
