Animal feed dicalcium phosphate

Animal feed dicalcium phosphate is a mineral supplement commonly used in dog food and treats as a feed additive. It is a source of both calcium and phosphorus, two essential minerals that are necessary for healthy bone growth and maintenance. 

Dicalcium phosphate is a type of calcium phosphate that is derived from rock phosphate. It is made up of a mixture of calcium and phosphorus in a ratio of roughly 2:1. This means that for every two parts of calcium, there is one part of phosphorus.

Calcium and phosphorus are both essential minerals that play important roles in a dog's body. Calcium is necessary for healthy bone growth and maintenance, while phosphorus is involved in a variety of processes, including the formation of DNA, the metabolism of energy, and the regulation of pH levels in the body.
