Karnlea launches new goat milk product

Karnlea has launched a new goat milk product that combines prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics.

Goat Milk Plus is whole goat milk powder with added ‘good bacteria’ for dogs and cats, which can be used to support their gut health and immune systems.

Goat milk is naturally rich in oligosaccharides which act as a prebiotic, but pasteurisation means that it doesn’t contain any live cultures, or probiotics. These have been added to Karnlea’s Goat Milk Plus – four beneficial strains – to provide enhanced health benefits.

Lara McCullough, Karnlea Founder, said: “Although regular goat milk is really beneficial to a cat or dog’s diet – it’s extremely palatable, has better fat and protein distribution as well as essential minerals – it does not contain pro or postbiotics. This means that they need to be added back in, and those strains need to be proven as beneficial which ours are.

“By adding these cultures to our regular mix, we are providing a product with true ‘biotics’ that can support general health or specifically be used to improve gut health and immunity.”

Karnlea Goat Milk Plus can be used as part of a regular diet, used occasionally or alternated with Karnlea’s original Goat Milk. It can also be given to older or recuperating cats and dogs.

Karnlea Goat Milk Plus comes in 200g tubs, providing up to 40 servings, and retails at £19.99.
