It contains 26 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 4 anti-nutrients including Pea Starch, Cassava/Tapioca, and Pea Flour (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 2 other sketchy ingredients, including Cranberry Pomace and Vegetable Pomace.
Warning
Due to this being a grain-free food that contains legumes or potatoes this Brothers Complete recipe may be implicated in the FDA's ongoing investigation into diet-related Dilated Cardiomyopathy (or DCM), a potentially fatal heart condition.
