Supplements & Pets: Hidden Risks Beneath the “All-Natural” Label

Why “all-natural” doesn’t always mean safe—and how to protect your pets.
Pet supplements are more popular than ever—but “all-natural” doesn’t always mean safe. Dogs and cats can become seriously ill from overdosing on flavored pet chews or getting into human supplements like iron, ALA, or xylitol-containing vitamins. Even common ingredients such as L-tryptophan, glucosamine, and methionine can cause tremors, GI issues, and dangerous metabolic changes when consumed in excess.
