If you are going to try to feed a full cup do not do it all at one feeding. It is very anti-bacterial and it needs to be fed at levels that are completely digested high in the system. If you feed enough at one feeding to push part of it into the hind gut it will be disruptive to roughage digestion. It is great stuff but not like other vegetable oils and needs to be used differently.
