Nutraceutics for pets - Healthy dog food and cat food

For thousands of years, herbs have been used as remedies for almost all types of diseases:  their therapeutic properties are extremely useful for prevention and they can increase the general state of well-being, especially if accompanied by a healthy diet.

The term “Nutraceutical” was coined by Dr. Stephen L. DeFelice in 1989, combining the words "nutrition" and "pharmaceutical" and refers to the study of food, or parts of food, which have beneficial effects on health.

Functional foods are conventional foods used for their healthy properties, whereas nutraceuticals are isolated food substances that have to be dosed when given to pets.
