NutriSource Large Breed Adult Chicken & Rice Formula Dry Dog Food 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 22 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has no antinutrients like peas, lentils, or potatoes (which is great, because these ingredients may interfere the absorption of vital nutrients), and it has 3 other sketchy ingredients, including Beet Pulp-Dried and Dried Brewers Yeast.

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