? ROYAL CANIN vs Purina DM

Status
Not open for further replies.
Purina DM canned is low carb. I don't know the carb count in the RC, but usually gravy means carbs and looking at the label I see some high carb ingredients, so I'd go with the Purina.
 
Morsels in Gravy
Water sufficient for processing, pork by-products, chicken liver, chicken, wheat gluten, powdered cellulose, gelatin, wheat flour, modified corn starch, natural flavors, calcium sulfate, guar gum, calcium carbonate, fish oil, potassium chloride, taurine, sodium silico aluminate, potassium phosphate, carrageenan, vitamins [DL-alpha tocopherol acetate (source of vitamin E), L-ascorbyl-2-polyphosphate (source of vitamin C), thiamine mononitrate (vitamin B1), niacin supplement, biotin, D-calcium pantothenate, riboflavin supplement, pyridoxine hydrochloride (vitamin B6), vitamin B12 supplement, folic acid, vitamin D3 supplement], L-carnitine, marigold extract (Tagetes erecta L.), trace minerals (zinc proteinate, zinc oxide, ferrous sulfate, copper sulfate, manganous oxide, sodium selenite, calcium iodate).

- Items in red are either carbohydrate sources or potential causes of GI irritation.

Using the Scheyder calculator online, it is approximately
56.1% calories from protein
22.8% calories from fat
21.1 % calories from carbohydrate


Note that much over the counter food has about 78% moisture and this has 83% moisture.
 
@Jill & Alex (GA) can you do something about the signature?
Yes, I can, but at this point and after a brief and casual discussion with a couple of other moderators, I do not feel there is a pressing need for moderator intervention. After all, by their very design, our signatures are telling. They offer pertinent information so others can tailor their responses to our needs.

The OP's signature accomplishes just that.
I find dmann777's signature very telling, don't you? :cool:
