When Nature Passes the Test: NHV Turmeric Earns Health Canada Approval

NHV Behind The Scenes 3 min read

Turmeric has long been one of nature’s most trusted ingredients for supporting comfort and mobility. Many pet parents searching for turmeric for dogs or turmeric for cats are looking for a natural anti-inflammatory option they can feel good about.

NHV Turmeric has earned Health Canada approval

That’s why we’re proud to share an important milestone: NHV Turmeric has earned Health Canada approval under the Veterinary Health Products (VHP) program.

This approval isn’t just about turmeric. It’s about giving pet parents confidence that a natural option has been carefully reviewed, responsibly formulated, and held to high standards of safety and quality.

Why This Matters for Pet Parents

The natural pet wellness space has grown very quickly, but not all supplements are reviewed or regulated in the same way. Health Canada approval means that NHV Turmeric has been evaluated by a federal regulatory authority, similar in role to the FDA in the U.S. and the EMA in Europe.

For you, that means:

  • Clear ingredient transparency
  • Reviewed dosing and formulation
  • National standards for safety and quality

Simply put, it helps take the guesswork out of choosing a natural supplement for your dog or cat.

Why Pet Parents Choose Turmeric

Turmeric’s active compound, curcumin, has been widely studied for its supportive role in the body. In pets, turmeric is commonly used to help maintain comfort and overall wellness.

Pet parents often turn to turmeric to support:

  • A healthy inflammatory response
  • Joint comfort and mobility, especially in aging pets
  • Antioxidant protection, which helps support overall cell health
  • Immune balance
  • Digestive and liver support

These benefits are why turmeric remains one of the most searched natural options for pets.

What Makes NHV Turmeric Different

At NHV, we believe that natural should also mean validated. Earning Health Canada approval required careful attention to formulation, ingredient sourcing, documentation, and quality standards.

Health Canada VHP Approval Details

  • Veterinary Health Product Notification Number: NN.L3R4
  • Active Ingredients (per 1 mL)
  • Curcuma longa (Turmeric)
  • Supports a healthy inflammatory response and antioxidant balance.
  • Piper nigrum (Black Pepper)
  • Included to enhance curcumin absorption, helping your pet’s body better use turmeric’s benefits.

Route of Administration

  • Oral liquid formula, allowing for easy dosing and flexibility for both dogs and cats of different sizes.

This thoughtful formulation reflects current scientific understanding while remaining gentle and suitable for everyday wellness support.

From Tradition to Trust

Turmeric has centuries of traditional use behind it but NHV Turmeric goes a step further. Health Canada approval confirms that this product meets national standards for ingredient safety, formulation logic, and labeling accuracy.

For pet parents, this means you don’t have to choose between natural and responsible. With NHV Turmeric, you get both.

A Stronger Future for Natural Wellness

Seeing turmeric enter a validated regulatory category helps strengthen confidence in natural remedies overall. It shows that botanical ingredients can be offered in a way that is transparent, science-informed, and carefully reviewed.

At NHV, our goal is simple: to support pets with natural options that are held to a higher standard, because your pet deserves nothing less.

Explore NHV Turmeric

If you’re looking for a natural anti-inflammatory option for dogs or cats that’s been reviewed, validated, and thoughtfully formulated: explore NHV Turmeric and see how nature and trust can work together for your pet’s well-being.
