Natural Balance Original Ultra Whole Body Health Reduced Calorie Chicken

Dog Food > Wet Dog Food > Natural Balance

Natural Balance Original Ultra Whole Body Health Reduced Calorie Chicken is hot extruded (which means it's processed under extreme heat and pressure) and made with feed grade ingredients, which are unfit for human consumption. It contains 24 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 2 anti-nutrients including Potatoes and Pea Fiber (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 5 other sketchy ingredients, including Dried Tomato Pomace and Natural Smoke Flavor. Many consider this food to be inconvenient, because it requires clean-up.

Warning: In June 2019, the FDA implicated Natural Balance's dog food in at least 10 cases of Dilated Cardiomyopathy (or DCM), a potentially fatal heart condition.
