52.1/100Good

DryAdultSenior

A white fish kibble for the dog carrying a bit too much, and it sits in our Good band. Fat is declared at 6% and energy comes out at 301 kcal per 100g, against 357 for the typical adult dry food. High fibre does the filling, which is the honest way to build a diet bowl.

Feeling full on less, with crude fibre at 7.1% of dry matter
Holding muscle while slimming: protein stays at 25.5% of dry matter

Worth watching

White fish never named beyond that, with salmon oil and salmon gravy alongside
Estimated carbohydrate at 52.2% of dry matter, the arithmetic of taking fat this low

The score, in context

Green Pantry Weight Control 52.1

All one Good. Typical dry food: Good.

Careful construction and an open label earn its place, while the starch that fills the space left by so little fat sets the ceiling.

What's in it

White fish: freshly prepared, dried36.5%20.5% fresh and 16% dried. The dried share counts most once cooking takes the water out. The species is never named.
Salmon oil, salmon gravy1.5% eachCounted inside the fish share, so this is not a single-fish recipe.
Whole barley17%Brings gluten.
Whole oats16.5%
Whole millet, whole brown rice11.5% eachMillet is easily digested and gluten free. Four grains in modest amounts spread the load.
Minerals
Alfalfa, milk thistle, burdock root, horehound, cranberry, dandelion, rosehipThe start of a long herbal tail. None of it is quantified.
Kale, beetroot, nettle, seaweed, mint, spinach, aniseed, spirulinaA thoughtful list, not a working one.
Hemp, flaxseedPlant omegas.

Vitamins A, D3 and E, with zinc, iron, manganese and copper as chelates and their doses printed, plus iodine as calcium iodate.
