Green - Ulva lactuca Feed your pets what they'd select themselves in the wild, and in a form readily absorbed (without the cellulose binding of terrestrial plants). We have studied and selected the seaweed/microalgae species that are most beneficial for pets and put them all into one custom mix. Each species is known to excel for it's unique qualities and you won't find a blend more diverse or complete than this one. Seaweed boasts 56 bioavailable minerals and trace elements, and this unique blend is designed to be exceptionally high in B Vitamins, Vitamin E, Vitamin A, Vitamin C, Calcium, Potassium, Iodine, Antioxidants, Enzymes, Protein and a long list of natural colour enhancers for your wet-pets. All seaweed has anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory, anti-parasite and probiotic qualities. Want some comparisons? Your pet would have to eat about 40 lb. of fresh vegetables and/or fruits to get as much iodine as you would from 1 gram of Kelp. How about 4 times the iron in Spinach, more calcium than Kale or Bok-choy, twice the magnesium of collard greens and more vitamin C by mass than oranges! Chondrus crispus is used especially to build immunity and prevent viral diseases, including the treatment of TB in humans. The large brown seaweeds known as "Kelp" are also rich sources of alginic acids, which remove heavy metals from the body and the bones. Red Seaweeds have demonstrated exceptional anti-parasite qualities in scientific studies, with Kelp coming in as a close second. Ulva has been tested on fish in several scientific studies with positive results across the board. Green algae is superior to all other algae groups in regards to absorption, and is most often the algae of choice for fish, followed by red algae. [W. Linn Montgomery & Shelby D. Gerking, Marine macroalgae as foods for fishes: an evaluation of potential food quality] This powdered Seaweed blend contains no preservatives or other additives, and none of the over-processing issues that impact or remove the natural nutrition in commercial pet food. Harvested fresh this season (you'll smell the difference!), it is blended and immediately sealed in food-grade bags to retain vitamin content. Seaweed powder can be fed directly to your pets or used in mixes and recipes. It is perfect for gut-loading/bio-encapsulating/dusting live food cultures for fish (such as feeder Shrimp, Black Worms or White Worms). White Worms even occur naturally in decaying seaweed, so you know they like it! This human-grade* Seaweed Powder is brought in from across Canada, and the Spirulina is sourced in the US. The shipping costs alone for this many species is high, but you can get it all in one place! By cutting out the 'middleman' & elaborate packaging, we are still able to offer this blend of human-grade* Powdered Seaweed at a reasonable price. Because it is whole, nutrient-packed food, a little goes a very long way.
