Viability of Sustainable Supplements for Pet Consumption

When it comes to pet food, consumers have a tendency to humanize and impart their values to their furry friends. That’s why addressing the global protein supply challenge is crucial for the continuity of the global food system for both humans and pets.

To achieve this, exploration into resilient options that can supplement or replace animal-derived ingredients in pet food and treats has begun with plant- and yeast-based proteins. Research into these ingredients has shown great promise for feeding canines and felines as they are easily digestible and safe alternatives.

When nutritionally-balanced in combination with other ingredients these alternative proteins can unlock new and in-demand pet foods and treats that today’s conscious consumers are searching for to feed their animals.
