    Real fruit, some fiber and antioxidants. The amount in kibble is too small to matter much.

    natural flavor

    Legal term for animal-derived flavoring, usually hydrolyzed liver or broth. Adds taste, says nothing about quality.

    other

    pumpkin

    Soluble fiber that supports stool quality. Mild and well-tolerated.

    vegetable
14. 14

    blueberries

    Antioxidants, real. But the amount in any kibble is too small to do much. Mostly marketing.

21. 21

    cranberries

    Often added with a urinary-tract-support marketing angle. Real cranberry compounds help in concentrate form, but kibble doses are small.

    fruit

    Amino acid critical for heart health. Especially important in grain-free or pulse-heavy formulas where natural taurine precursors run thin.

    Essential amino acid. Plant-protein-heavy formulas sometimes add it to round out the amino acid profile.
