Dr. Mercola Digestive Enzymes Dog & Cat Supplement, 5.29-oz jar
Help support your pal’s digestive health with the Dr. Mercola Digestive Enzymes Dog & Cat Supplement. As cats and dogs age, their tummies make less of the digestive enzymes they need for healthy digestion and to absorb nutrients from food. This formula has specially-selected enzymes to support your pal’s digestion and unlock essential nutrients from meals, including betaine HCL, bromelain from natural pineapples, and papain from papayas. Plus, it includes pancreatin, an animal-based enzyme that has protease, amylase, and lipase―essential enzymes that help digest fats, protein, and starches. These natural enzymes have also been shown to support healthy blood circulation, cell growth and normal weight, as well as energy and a healthy immune system.
Key Benefits- Provides enzymes to promote healthy digestion, nutrient absorption and overall health.
- Includes betaine HCL, bromelain sourced from pineapples, and papain from papayas.
- With animal-sourced pancreatin that has protease, amylase, and lipase to break down nutrients into energy.
- Helps promote energy, healthy circulation, cell growth, normal weight maintenance, and a strong immune system.
- Perfect for cats and dogs, comes in a convenient tub and is free of wheat, gluten, corn, and soy.

Eating a nutrition rich food, my dogs were still having loose stools after trying all kinds of remedies. Last resort was, maybe they just don't have the gut to digest it! Bought these enzymes, and if anything they smell like the garbage when it starts to break down. The product I receive never smells like chemicals and I am on #3. My dogs aren't bothered by it at all, and the very first feeding.... All tummy issues resolved and they are loosing that grain fat and developing nice and sleek!

Knowing that a dog's diet, however wholesome we try to make it may not necessarily be complete. This is a welcomed supplement to both of our dog's daily diet. With giving our dogs a dose of Dr. Mercola's probiotics, they should also receive these digestive enzymes too.

Neither my cat nor my dog will eat food if this is in it. They'll avoid it like the plague. When I ordered it after reading everyone else's reviews that complained that it smells like chemicals... they downplay how how unbelievably bad that is. I thought, how bad can it be? It's bad. It's on the level of home perm solution smell which, if you've never had one, is a seriously toxic smell. I feel bad just having put it in their food.

Our puppy, despite eating premium food and probiotics, still had loose stools and GI issues (gas, gurgling, etc.). After a week on these enzymes, she's perfect. We're coming up on a month of use now, and her poop is still perfect. I will be ordering this again. Our cat, despite eating everything put in front of him, won't touch it. I've tried to disguise the enzymes with various other smelly stuff, but no luck.

My senior mastiff had a pancreatic attack and since just was not the same. I added this to her diet daily and BIG CHANGE. Much happier.

My dog did not like this in his food and I saw no difference in him while on this, so I would not purchase again.

One of my dogs, 15 year old Holly has been having digestive issues, so I started her on this digestive enzyme and it has really helped her.

My cats did not like this enzyme product at all! It smells almost like cat urine. I used 1/4 scoop per meal twice a day, and they picked at it a little and left. I thought I could save some money by using Dr Mercola Digestive Enzymes, but I am going back to the local pet store to buy their product.

Hard to determine if this is helping my pet's digestion but I trust Dr. Mercola so will continue to add this to their daily meals.

I am giving these digestive enzymes along with probiotics and 5 star dog foods (dry, wet and raw). This combination has made a super puppy! He can be around other animals that are sick without ever getting sick himself. He is the most athletic dog I've ever seen, able to leap over logs, burrow under brambles and navigate underbrush like a champ! I can't even begin to describe how healthy he is. The one time when he was very young he scraped himself on a bramble (not now that his wire coat has come in) he healed in a day and there isn't one scar. He got a minor bee sting after trying to dig up a nest of hibernating bees and there was almost no swelling (went away in an hour) and no reaction.

He runs our acreage, swims the pond and acts like a tiny wolf with amazing athletic ability! His skin and coat are gorgeous! He has a great heart. Minor injuries/traumas that would bother most dogs don't even faze him in the slightest. … more
