The first two ingredients area easily digestible protein derived from whole Antartic Krill(a small crustacean) and whole herring.

Krill meal, whole herring meal, and algae meal are the first three ingredients. I did a lot of research before buying this food for our betta. I truly believe its one of the best on the market.

Hey, the first two ingredients are meat. The first being whole Antarctic Krill Meal and the second being whole Herring Meal. ^^ I hope that it helps. My Betta will always gobble this up whenever I feed this with.

INMHO the veg are all the same to me. The italian green beans and green beans hold up well in broth if you like to make soups. Tasty beef choices: smoked brisket, fajita strips, meatballs. the non-breaded chicken choices are good for topping off a lettuce salads. Check the sodium on the breaded meats if that's an issue for you. Good luck!

Sheri, I no longer use Mature 27 as our ancient rescue cat has died. I still have a 5 lb. bag, which I am donating to a local cat shelter. The ingredients are printed on the side of the bag. The list starts with "chicken," followed by a lot of other stuff - mostly grains. Interestingly, the Indoor Adult 27 I am using for my two ten year old cats and one year kitten old starts with "chicken meal." (Hmmmm....) I always blend RC with another brand to try to cover all nutritional bases. I use a grain-free brand, but with older cats too much protein can cause problems.

What are the ingredients? Is this gluten-free? Please list the ingredients for all food items since people can be concerned about specific items.

I did not know that. I am aware that adulterated ingredients in human or animal food regardless of where those ingredients came from can have a harmful effect and avoid specific foods when problems are identified by competent authorities. I have never done a forensic examination of any of the milk bone products I've purchased over the last 20 years so I can't attest to their chemical composition. I can say that they've been a staple for the thirty-plus dogs we've adopted during those years with much apparent enjoyment and no apparent ill-effects. If that paradigm ever changes, I will promptly amend my review.

Everyone - this is what I want to know and I will be contacting the company to find out. I want to know what is NOT on the label nor on their website nor could the guy at Whole Foods give a definitive answer (he's waiting to hear back from me on this) when he spoke to the company.If they source from cows that are injected with rBST - I want nothing to do with it. It's important. Why would I drink what I won't eat in my beef?If anyone has heard from the company on this, I think all of us should know.

The information is not on the label, so I can't answer the question. I would call the PTF site and ask. I had some questions about the food and the customer rep was very helpful and answered all my questions. I assumed that there was only garlic and butter since no other ingredients were on the label.A lot of reviewers rave about the sweet garlic butter, but I personally do not like it (just a matter of personal preference)....so this concern never was a factor or for me, but I see your concern.

In the beginning, 12 years ago, yes, I was concerned. However, at the time, my Nutritionist (By the way, his entire family of five have been with Standard Process for at least 15 years that I know of) stated: Do you eat meat, ie: beef, lamb, etc? I stated "Yes"....His comment: Well then, what is the difference. All Standard Process products are tested for purity and safety. Google Standard Process so you can understand who and what they are. This company has been around for many years. My Nutrionist gave me all the data on each of the products I take, so I feel very comfortable taking Catalyn, along with all and any of their products. Hope this helps make your decision.

I just bought some for my pup and opened it up and tried a kibble. I have been a vegetarian all my life, but the ingredients looked so good I figured I should try it. It smells like fish and chicken and veggies - not so much kibble. She seems to think it's better than meat sticks :)

Its naturally occuring. Nothing added. If you eat meat or dairy, you're getting tryptophan.

The meat in the ingredient list is "lean beef.' There is nothing more stated. It tastes good is all I can tell you. The differences between the flavor of grass fed, grain fed, lot fed and free range can be subtle at best. The lot fed is often the least quality, while the others do not vary much when all other conditions are the same. I work with a lot of ranchers in the central California area and that is the consensus among them and myself.

Meat bread LOL. Seriously the protein and fat content would have to be taken into account as that can play hell with the leavening. I prefer olives in the bread and pepperoni as a topping.

Supposedly this product is Vegan which would mean no animal by-products at all, including pork. However there is some disagreement if it is still Vegan due the the "new and Improved" formula. Go online under Nature's Way Alive Multi-Vitamin and check if it is still currently Vegan.
