Summary
Profine Light Turkey is a complete, natural turkey and chicken-based formula designed to manage the weight of overweight adult cats.
It provides high-quality, lean proteins, with 36% of crude protein sourced primarily from dried turkey (22%) and dried chicken (21%).
The low-fat content of 10% supports a calorie-controlled diet for effective weight loss or maintenance.
Fiber-rich ingredients, such as beet pulp and dried apples, aid in digestion and improve satiety.
Omega fatty acids from salmon oil and functional herbs, including fennel and basil, promote skin health and overall vitality.
The addition of L-carnitine helps metabolize fats into energy, assisting in healthy weight management.
Pros:
- High protein content: Provides 36% crude protein for muscle maintenance and a feeling of fullness.
- Weight management support: A low-fat formula (10%) and L-carnitine promote effective weight control.
- Digestive health: Enriched with prebiotics such as chicory root and fructo-oligosaccharides for improved gut flora.
- Skin and coat health: Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids enhance coat shine and skin condition.
- Balanced nutrition: Contains essential vitamins (A, D3, E) and minerals (zinc, selenium) to support overall health.
Cons:
- Moderate fiber content: Crude fiber at 4.5% might not fully satisfy highly food-motivated cats.
- Caloric density: At 3,600 kcal/kg, careful portion control is required for effective weight management.
- Limited variety: Relies on poultry proteins, which might not suit cats with specific allergies.
- Low magnesium: While beneficial for urinary health, this may not suit all dietary preferences or needs.

How the score is calculated?
The actual calculation of the score is based on sophisticated and advanced algorithm that takes into account multiple parameters.
To simplify the explanation, the calculation is based on three main criteria:
(1) Amount of protein (more is better)
(2) Amount of carbohydrates (less is better)
(3) Quality and source of ingredients.
Based on that 3 main criteria, 9 score calculation rules are used to compare the different foods.
One major assumption is that the closer an ingredient is to the top of the ingredient list, the greater its relative weight and contribution to the food.
In general, cat food is composed of protein, fats, carbohydrates, fibers, vitamins, and minerals.
Protein is the most important component in a cat's diet, and cats primarily get their protein from animal meat.
Fat is a primary source of energy and essential fatty acids.
Carbohydrates are controversial in a cat's diet, as cats are obligate carnivores and typically consume very few carbohydrates.
Fibers play an important role in digestion and food absorption, and vitamins and minerals are essential for different organism functions.
Dry matter values are used to compare the amount of nutrients in different cat foods. This means that moisture is excluded from the equation to provide a more accurate comparison.
Putting all of these and more into a formula results in a product score.
The maximum score a cat food can receive is 100. Points are added or removed based on the score calculation rules.
