Sealife™ Kelp Meal for Animals
- Chemical Family
- Minerals
SeaLife™ Kelp Meal is an animal feed supplement made from the seaweed Ascophyllum nodosum. We harvest the seaweed from the idyllic waters of the Maine coast and dry it at a low temperature to preserve its valuable vitamins, minerals, trace elements, amino acids, and carbohydrates. SeaLife is a naturally balanced supplement that helps fulfill dietary requirements for trace elements that are often lacking in land-grown feeds and pastures due to erosion or leaching. SeaLife is a rich and dependable source of minerals, amino acids, and vitamins including iodine, 10 essential amino acids, and vitamins A, C, B12, E, and thiamine. Many of the trace minerals contained in SeaLife are essential for producing enzymes which in turn promote health and productivity. Available in USDA Certified Organic and All-Natural options. An excellent ingredient for livestock feed and pet foods.
