● Beneficial (well-established)Whole meat from a named animal species. Both the species and the form are identified, which supports traceability and allergy checking. Published nutrition references associate named whole meats with high protein quality.Sources: AAFCO 2024 · NRC 2006 · Amino acid bioavailability studies
The label lists this premix's contents, each piece classified on its own:
meat: Protein source without species identification. Terms like meat, meat meal, animal by-products, meat and bone meal, or meat and animal derivatives do not identify the animal species, which limits traceability and makes allergen avoidance difficult.Sources: AAFCO 2024 Official Publication · EU Regulation 767/2009

Many raw and freeze-dried products do not carry AAFCO nutritional adequacy statements. This is common for the format and does not necessarily indicate a nutritional concern; you may wish to discuss a raw diet with a veterinary nutritionist.
Values as declared by the manufacturer (as fed). AAFCO minimums are published on a dry-matter basis and converted using the declared moisture before comparison; the comparison is shown for context only. Consult your vet for diet decisions.
