Orijen Fit & Trim Dry Dog Food is bursting with the protein-packed, veterinary-inspected meats that form a Biologically Appropriate diet of 38% protein and 20% low-glycemic carbohydrates. The potential oversupply of calcium and phosphorus in high-protein dog foods is cause for concern. High inclusions of chicken meal, fish meal or turkey meal used to increase protein levels also provide a rich source of minerals and push calcium and phosphorus levels to the upper allowable limits of, respectively, 2.5% and 1.6%. Quality is never outsourced!
Fresh chicken and turkey cartilage, not synthetic ingredients, provides a natural and high source of glucosamine and chondroitin. Non-rendered omega-3 fatty acids (DHA and EPA) are from fresh fish, not sunflower, flax or canola oils (ALA), which are ineffective in the body of a dog. These fatty acids are essential for your dog's immune and nervous systems, as well as glowing skin and hair coat.
Instead of grain, this formula contains a full complement of regional fruits and vegetables that supply important natural antioxidants and phytochemicals — including sarsaparilla root, juniper berries and turmeric —that are naturally rich in phytonutrients, B-vitamins and essential trace minerals.
