## Overview

Animal Essentials Plant Enzyme & Probiotics is a 3.5 oz plant-based digestive supplement designed for dogs and cats. It combines natural probiotics and enzymes that work across the entire digestive system to enhance nutrient absorption, reduce digestive discomfort, and support overall gut health. Easy to add to daily meals, this vet-developed formula is ideal for pets of all life stages, especially aging animals needing extra digestive support.

## Description

Animal Essentials' Plant Enzymes & Probiotics relieves the extra burden placed on the digestive system by breaking down fats, carbohydrates, cellulose and protein. It contains a blend of plant and microbial produced enzymes, none of which come from animal sources. Animal derived enzymes will work in only one area of the digestive system (stomach and intestines), while plant and microbial enzymes work throughout the whole system. Since our enzymes also work over a broader pH range they are active longer in the entire digestive process, reducing the food into usable components.

Review: Good for gassy dogs! - So I originally got this for one of my dogs that was 8 years old at the time of starting this that was very gassy and also burping a lot after putting this in her morning wet food after about a month she wasn’t gassy and barely burped anymore! Her stomach you don’t hear gurgling anymore as well! Still to this day I give it to her every morning and I also give it to my other 3 dogs that are seniors as well and I feel like it’s helped all of them with their poops! It’s just a white soft powder that you add to their food I add it to their morning wet foot that mixes right in. All of them seem to like the taste and since it’s powder dogs with tooth problems can have it no problem. I get the larger size of bottle and I give it to 4 dogs every morning and still only need to purchase it about every 5-6 months with giving the amount directed.
Review: Good product - I started buying this brand from the pet food, etc., store near my house. I know the owner won't sell anything that she wouldn't use for her own dogs. So I knew it was a good brand. I have a 10 year old Weimaraner and having been using this for a while now. And he is doing well on it. I did find it a little cheaper on desertcart than at the pet store. I put it in his morning food along with the Omega 3 I give him each day.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What are the ingredients?**
A: Chewy.com shows the list of ingredients on the Ingredients tab on their page at http://www.chewy.com/dog/animal-essentials-plant-enzymes/dp/49371?utm_source=shopping.com.  Best wishes.

**Q: How many doses in a container?**
A: 1 gram = 1/4 tsp.  Dosage for dogs:  1/4 teaspoon for each 30lbs body weight, added to food each day.  Cats:  1/4 teaspoon added to food each day.    The 100g container has 100 doses for dogs 30 pounds and under.  The 300g container is the best buy with 300 doses for dogs 30 pounds and under (if you dog is over 30 pds then you would have 150 doses).

**Q: What is the amount of CFU (the number of active, live organisms ) per serving ?**
A: Unfortunately, it is not listed as CFU per serving.  Here is what is says per 1/4 tsp. Aspergillus orzye--3150DI/g1, Aspergillus orzye & Bacillus subtilus--20,500 HUT/g2, Aspergillus niger--265 LU/g3,  Trichoderma longibrachiatum 110CU/g4, Trichoderma longibrachiatum 100 HCU/g5, pineapple 20,000 FCC/g6, probiotic--100million CRU/g7.  Dosage lists 1/4 tsp for cats and 1/4 tsp for every 30lbs. of dog.  I hope this answers your question.  If not, please ask.  I will be away from the computer all morning, but will get back to you by evening.  ~~Julie

**Q: Does this contain a prebiotic**
A: Since the prebiotic is a fiber that nourishes good bacteria, it sounds like this might contain it but, the label does not mention prebiotic so, the best people to answer this are those who manufacture it.  However, I've used this product for 5 pups for several years and am very pleased.
