Opti Life: the closer look
The range
Twenty one dry products across nine ranges. Adult Care and Adult hold four each, with Puppy at three, and Puppy Care, Senior, Sterilised/Light and Prime Adult at two apiece. Fourteen labels are adult. The rest are seven puppy and two senior. Six recipes are sized for small breeds and six for large.
Ingredients
Chicken leads fourteen recipes, with salmon on four and lamb on three. Twenty of the twenty one carry joint support, so glucosamine sits on almost every label, alongside linseed, salmon oil and taurine. Three recipes are grain free.
Nutrition
Protein as fed runs from 23.0% on the Adult Care recipes to 38.0% on the Prime lines, with fat from 9.5 to 22.0% and energy of 357 to 440 kcal per 100g. Nutritional balance reads Average on eleven recipes and Outstanding on three.
Strengths
- Transparency reads Excellent on sixteen recipes
- Joint support on twenty of the labels
- Kibble for every life stage and breed size
Limitations
- Protein and processing reads Average or Poor
- All dry, with neither wet nor raw
- Only three grain free recipes
Where it is less of a fit
- If wet or raw food is the goal, check the formats here, as all twenty one products are dry
- If grain free matters to you, check the flags, since three recipes carry it
- If protein and processing matters most to you, check that pillar, which reads Average on fifteen recipes
Score overview
Transparency carries the Good band, Excellent on sixteen recipes and Good on the other five, with value at Good on seventeen. Protein and processing is the drag: Average on fifteen products, Poor on four. The Prime Adult, Prime Puppy and Baby recipes read Average, a band below the seventeen that read Good.
The average score is the mean of each product's overall score out of 100 (using the best-scoring variety per product), not a flat average across every variety.
