DOGKRAFT ZEOLITE for dogs

DOGKRAFT is 100% natural zeolite, free from extenders or separating agents, and is tribomechanically activated and pulverized to the optimal grain size for dogs – 14µm. This gives the product a high basic energy and purity.

Zeolite was formed millions of years ago when volcanic eruptions caused glowing lava to fall into the sea, causing the water to boil. This boiling lava rock created gas pockets, which created tiny pores in the rock and formed a microporous structure. As a result, this mineral has an infinite number of channels and cavities. These increase the surface area and thus develop enormous binding capacity. Zeolite is essentially an immense sponge and binds pollutants such as ammonia and heavy metals.

Zeolite is a natural mineral rock of volcanic origin— a natural volcanic mineral —and has a high silicon content. This porous tuff rock consists of a crystal lattice structure with cavities. These cavities contain the cations calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium, as well as many other trace elements. Prof. Dr. Karl Hecht, a major zeolite pioneer, speaks of at least 34 minerals.

Due to its large crystalline surface structure and the associated binding effects, clinoptilolite zeolite can have a positive impact on the composition of dog food. The finer the zeolite, the more contaminants it can bind. Dogkraft for dogs is super effective and also sustainable.

An optimized feed can support the regulation of digestion , the supply of natural minerals and the quality of the coat .

An optimized feed can support the regulation of digestion , the supply of natural minerals and the quality of the coat .

Optimized dog food is particularly recommended after vaccinations, deworming, during transitional phases - when dogs are under stress - during coat change, when they eat a lot from the ground, inhale a lot of exhaust fumes, etc.

General recommendation: Optimize your pet's food twice a year for 6-8 weeks. It's like a treatment. And observe the difference. Optimized food can relieve strain on organs and provide more energy.

Our tip: Leave a gap of 2 hours between taking medication and adding zeolite.

In our blog post, "10 Good Reasons to Enrich Dog Food with Zeolite," we described in detail when zeolite should be added to dog food to support our beloved animals during transitional phases or to establish a daily detox and wellness ritual.

So again, clearly:
When should you improve your dog's food with zeolite? Zeolite in dogs: WHAT FOR?

1. When the dog's digestion is not in balance and harmony: that is, when it has diarrhea .
   A food optimized with zeolite can help improve a dog's digestion by removing excess fluids and toxins from the intestines, helping to regulate intestinal pH, thereby preventing the growth of pathogenic bacteria, helping to improve the absorption of nutrients from food by improving intestinal permeability, helping to reduce inflammation in the intestines, and improving overall intestinal health.
   
   TIP: Before you start an intestinal cleansing program for your dog, many veterinarians recommend optimizing the dog food with zeolite to prepare the intestines for the new microbiome by eliminating toxins and preparing the intestinal mucosa.
   
2. If the dog's skin and coat health can be improved:
   A dog food enhanced with zeolite can help improve a dog's coat by removing pollutants and toxins that would otherwise be excreted through the skin. The coat, as an extension of the skin, acts as a large detoxification surface.
   
3. It can help reduce the smell of dog urine and feces by removing toxins that cause the unpleasant odor.
   
4. When the dog’s immune system needs support:
   Zeolite can help strengthen dogs' immune systems by removing harmful substances that weaken them. Simply stir it into their food!
   
5. If the dog is often weak and tired :
   It can help improve the performance of dogs by improving the absorption of nutrients from food and keeping the intestines healthy.
   It can help improve the overall well-being of dogs by supporting digestion and removing toxins from the body.
   
6. If the dog has been given medication , or has just undergone surgery, or has received vaccinations, or has been dewormed, all of these can lead to the accumulation of heavy metals in the dog's body.
   
7. If the dog lives in the city and walks among the cars and exhaust fumes.
   
8. If your dog's food is contaminated with heavy metals , some studies have shown that zeolite can help remove heavy metals like lead, cadmium, and mercury from dogs' intestines. So add it to your dog's food!
   
9. If the dog food is contaminated with mycotoxins, mycotoxins are produced by mold and make many things difficult. Some dogs also eat things from the ground. Then zeolite definitely belongs in the food. Zeolite binds mycotoxins and expels them from the body.
   
10. If the dog suffers from allergies .

Yes, suitable for both wet and dry food. With wet food, the powder is easy to stir in. With dry food, you can moisten the powder slightly to ensure it blends well.

For legal reasons, we have to write the maximum daily feed intake specified by law on the label. It's 1%. It can't exceed that. Sometimes that's confusing.
To be clear: DOGKRAFT, the STEINKRAFT zeolite for dogs, is 14 microns fine. Due to its high effective surface area, 0.5% is sufficient.

Example: Our Steinkraft company dog ​​Ezra gets 800g of wet food daily.
At his evening meal, he gets 5g of zeolite powder mixed into his food. This is half a scoop with the measuring spoon included with the 450g can. The scoop has a line down the middle, so you can quickly see where the 5g are, making it easy to measure. This amount is good for the dog.
His coat is beautiful, he's strong and healthy. The vet admired, among other things, his beautiful white teeth during his last visit.

0.5% of the daily food intake. For example, if your dog eats 1kg of food per day, that's 5g of zeolite per day.
The 250g can comes with a spoon for approx. 3.5g of zeolite, the 450g can comes with a spoon for approx. 12g.

General recommendation for feeding zeolite to dogs:

Optimize your pet's food twice a year for 6-8 weeks. It's like a treatment. And observe the difference. Optimized food can relieve strain on organs and provide more energy.

Are there good times for a health cure?

Yes, as a spring detox , definitely. During shedding ( read more about shedding in dogs here>>) , after deworming and injections. Zeolite is effective in removing the byproducts that come with these treatments.

Feed daily?

Yes, for dogs with sensitive digestion and for older dogs.

Dosage instructions>>>

For safety reasons: Leave a gap of 2 hours between medication and adding zeolite.

Yes, zeolite can be used safely as part of a BARF diet (Biologically Appropriate Raw Food) – and is even specifically supplemented by many BARF users.

Zeolite is a natural volcanic rock with a high binding capacity. It can bind certain undesirable substances in the digestive tract, such as ammonium, heavy metals, or decay products, and excrete them with the feces – completely without burdening the organism.

Zeolite can be a valuable support, especially when feeding raw food:

BARF naturally contains a lot of animal proteins, which can lead to higher ammonium levels – zeolite helps to bind this metabolic product.

In some dogs, digestion and stool consistency become significantly more stable with the addition of zeolite.

DOGKRAFT Zeolite contains no chemical additives or fillers, making it ideal for a holistic nutritional concept.

Important: Zeolite should always be offered with sufficient water and should not be given at the same time as medications or other sensitive supplements – an interval of about 2 hours is advisable here.
