Nutro Wholesome Essentials Toy Breed Adult Farm-Raised Chicken
Nutro Wholesome Essentials Toy Breed Adult Farm-Raised 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 21 synthetic additives (so it is not all-natural), it has 2 anti-nutrients including Pea Protein and Soybean Oil (Preserved with Mixed Tocopherols) (which may interfere with the absorption of essential nutrients), and it has 3 other sketchy ingredients, including Dried Plain Beet Pulp and Natural Flavor.
Warning:
In June 2019, the FDA implicated Nutro's dog food
in at least 10 cases of Dilated Cardiomyopathy (or DCM), a potentially
fatal heart condition.
