Menadione, which is a synthetic form of vitamin K, is a widely used ingredient in pet food.

Not only does menadione lack many of the important properties of natural vitamin K (derived from whole foods), it has also been identified as a liver toxin.

Even in very small amounts, ingestion of menadione on a daily basis over a dog’s or cat’s lifetime is cause for concern.

Menadione can be found in all types of pet food, including commercial raw diets, so it’s important for pet guardians to check labels carefully for the presence of this synthetic nutrient.
