You DO NOT need this calcium supplement if you supplement home-prepared meals with Vegedog™, Vegecat™, or Vegepup. All three supplements supply ample calcium and the other minerals your companion animal needs for optimal nutrition and balance the calcium to phosphorous ratio in the diet. If you are unable to use Vegedog™, Vegecat™, or Vegepup, Sea-Cal can be part of a combination of supplements to fill in the nutritional gaps in your home-prepared meals. We recommend consulting an animal nutritionist (see our resources page) in such a case.

INGREDIENTS: Active Ingredients: Calcified Lithothamnium seaweed harvested from the Atlantic seabeds off Iceland’s coast.

Manufacturer DIRECTIONS: Add 1 teaspoon to each pound of home-prepared food or as directed by your veterinarian.

Lithothamnium seaweed offers a natural, easily digestible source of calcium and essential minerals that support overall health, mobility, digestion, and immune function. Calcium is the primary mineral for bone strength and density, maintaining skeletal health and ensuring bones stay strong and resilient which is vital for both puppies and senior pets.

Magnesium works with calcium to regulate bone density. It enhances calcium absorption into bones, promoting optimal skeletal health and preventing conditions like osteoporosis. Sulfur in Lithothamnium aids in the formation of collagen, an essential component of cartilage and joints. This helps reduce inflammation and improves joint mobility, making it beneficial for animals suffering from arthritis or other joint-related issues.

Potassium supports heart health by maintaining normal blood pressure levels. It balances the action of sodium and helps maintain proper heart rhythms, contributing to overall cardiovascular health.

Zinc is important for the function of enzymes in the body and contributes to the health of skin, coat, and immune system. It also helps in the healing of wounds and supports tissue repair.

Iodine is essential for thyroid function. It helps regulate metabolism, ensuring your companion animal’s body uses energy efficiently, which is particularly beneficial for pets prone to weight fluctuations or thyroid imbalances.

Phosphorus, another essential mineral found in Lithothamnium, helps in the breakdown and utilization of food by the body. It supports the formation of healthy digestive enzymes and the effective use of carbohydrates and fats, promoting overall digestive health.
