Standard Process, a nutritional supplement company, has expanded its veterinary range with Mushroom Complex, a scientific formula for cats and dogs.
Mushroom Complex is formulated to offer multi-faceted support for the immune system, digestion, cellular health, and long-term wellness.
Standard Process pet product development manager Katrina Verdeur said: “Today’s pet owners are increasingly focused on their animal’s wellness and overall health.
“There are different approaches to supporting a healthy pet, and different components can support multiple body systems.”
Each serving of Mushroom Complex contains a mixture of science-based ingredients developed at the Standard Process Nutrition Innovation Center in Kannapolis, North Carolina.
The list includes a mushroom extract blend (428mg per serving), bovine colostrum (171mg per serving), and beta glucans (150mg).
All the ingredients enhance the potential benefits of the product, the Wisconsin-based Standard Process claimed.
Verdeur said: “Mushroom Complex provides a guaranteed number of beta glucans coming from a blend of mushroom extracts.
“The mushroom extracts are derived from the fruiting body of the fungi and extracted with hot water to pre-digest and concentrate the active components of mushrooms.”
Mushroom Complex also incorporates ancient oats sourced from the Standard Process certified organic farm. This improves the product with unique profile of beta glucan fragments and other bioactive compounds.
Verdeur said: “The oats in the Mushroom Complex product are different from conventional oats many consumers and pets are used to.
“The oat is an ancient variety, Avena strigosa, which is known to have a higher level of protein and avenanthramides.”
Standard Process has a manufacturing site to protect vital nutrients at its Palmyra, Wisconsin headquarters.
The nutritional supplement company currently offers over 300 supplements, designed to support optimal wellness for the entire family and pets.
In February, the firm introduced Biofilm ProBalance, a probiotic + enzyme + whole food formula to balance the structure and development of microbial communities, their extracellular components, and naturally occurring yeasts in the gastrointestinal system.
