Until product case studies with peer review are done for its use specifically in dogs, I'd be terrified to use it. The claims of the actual manufacturer as to the ingredients, benefits, safety measures used, toxicity, etc. are all just claims, with no proof as to any side effects or long term use results. For all you know, it could shut your dog's kidneys down one day or give him/her anemia or cancer.

I'd be very careful of using products that have no history of case studies of use/prolonged use or without government oversight and cited peer review. For all you know, some of the ingredients used are cheap, useless grains or filler, toxins or the lab they're mixed, produced, bottled and/or stored in is rodent/insect/pesticide-infested or resides near a chemical plant producing lethal products! Just because the manufacturer produces a lovely bottle of product with labels making beautiful claims doesn't mean the ingredients in it are as stated or actually do anything but produce placebo-effect per statements online or in a magazine that may all/partly be fake or paid for.

I just couldn't do it until I knew a whole lot more about the product's long-term efficacy knowing who paid for and did and commented on the results of the case studies and manufacturer's bona fides.
