A neutraceutical is defined as "a substance that is produced in purified or extracted form and administered orally to provide agents required for normal body structure and function and administered with the intent of improving the health and well-being of animals.<ref>Anonymous. Council defines "neutraceutical." Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association 1996; 209:1986.</ref>"
The majority of neutraceuticals have possible benefits as opposed to proven benefits. Neutraceuticals are not regulated in the same way as pharmaceuticals and do not have to undergo the same rigorous testing to be approved.
