Colon Rescue Herbal Digestive Powder is a gentle, effective formula designed to support healthy bowel function and soothe irritation in the lower gastrointestinal tract. Made with a carefully selected blend of demulcent and astringent herbs like slippery elm bark, marshmallow root, and plantain leaf, this powder works to promote healthy  inflammatory pathways, support mucosal linings, and restore balance to the colon.

Unlike general digestive aids, Colon Rescue works especially well in the lower GI tract, making it especially effective for addressing occasional occurrences of diarrhea, constipation, and irritable bowel episodes. It helps regulate bowel movements while supporting the natural healing of intestinal tissues, making it a valuable tool for pets dealing with chronic or occasional digestive upset.

Ideal for pets with chronic digestive imbalances or those recovering from acute episodes, Colon Rescue can be used daily for long-term gut wellness or as-needed to help resolve sudden disruptions. It’s an excellent choice for dogs or cats prone to GI upset, dietary indiscretions, or irregular stools. Because the powder form allows for flexible dosing and easy mixing into meals, it’s especially useful for picky eaters or pets with sensitive stomachs.

Animal Essentials’ Colon Rescue stands apart with its clean, filler-free formula made from organic, whole herbs that specifically target the lower GI tract—where digestive issues like diarrhea and constipation often begin. Crafted with transparency and intention, every ingredient is selected to soothe, protect, and restore gut health naturally, giving your pet the gentle, effective support they need without anything unnecessary.

    Important product for my cat with IBD

    My cat has been diagnosed with IBD for three years and large cell lymphoma for just under one year. She’s also diabetic. I believe animals essentials colon rescue powder has been a valuable part of her treatment protocol. Until I discovered this formula, she was often clearly uncomfortable and I would need to take her in for urgent colon impaction treatment. Along with the rest of her treatment plan/diet changes, I truly believe this has contributed to a more comfortable cat, and certainly to her longevity. I am very grateful for this product and to this company.
