Blood meal
Also appears on labels as: conventionally dried blood meal
Blood from slaughtered animals, dried to a powder. The label does not say which animal.
Watched ingredients get highlighted on every product panel you open.
- Where it comes from
- Rendering plants.
- Why it's in the product
- A concentrated protein.
- Safety and toxicity
- No known hazard of its own. The caution is the same transparency point as meat and bone meal and meat by-products: the label does not say which animal it came from. Until October 2026 we filed it under meat and bone meal, which it isn't.
General reference, not veterinary advice. Dose, breed, and existing conditions change the answer, so talk to your vet before changing what your pet eats. Think we got this wrong? Tell us and we log it publicly.
