Zenpet turmeric extract specifications include total curcuminoids ≥90–95%, with curcumin as the primary active component.
Regular turmeric powder is ground turmeric root with naturally occurring curcuminoids at low levels. Turmeric extract powder is concentrated through extraction and standardized to higher curcuminoid content.
For pet food manufacturers, it is mainly applied in joint support formulas, senior pet nutrition, antioxidant blends, immune support products, and functional treats.
The dosage should be adjusted according to the extract concentration (5%, 50%, 95% curcuminoids), animal species, product format, and regulatory requirements. EFSA has evaluated turmeric preparations for animal feed applications and established safe use levels based on species and feed concentration.
1.Dog Supplement Formula
| Formula Application | Recommended Dosage | Usage Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Daily Wellness Chews | 100–300 mg/kg finished product | General antioxidant support |
| Senior Dog Joint Formula | 200–500 mg/kg finished product | Mobility and aging support |
| Premium Joint Support Powder | 300–1000 mg/kg finished product | High-potency functional formula |
| Multivitamin Blend | 100–300 mg/kg finished product | Botanical antioxidant system |
| Soft Chew Formula | 50–200 mg/serving | Daily supplementation |
For standardized curcumin extracts, canine supplement products commonly calculate dosage based on curcuminoid concentration rather than raw turmeric powder. Reported dog supplement protocols often use approximately 5–10 mg/kg body weight of curcumin, depending on formulation design.
2.Cat Supplement Formula
| Formula Application | Recommended Dosage | Usage Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Cat Wellness Powder | 50–150 mg/kg finished product | Antioxidant support |
| Senior Cat Formula | 100–300 mg/kg finished product | Aging nutrition |
| Functional Treats | 50–100 mg/kg finished product | Daily wellness |
Note: Cats have different metabolism pathways compared with dogs; formulation levels should be carefully evaluated. EFSA safety assessments apply different considerations for cats due to metabolic differences.
