Summary

Purina Beyond Simply Grain Free White Meat Chicken & Egg Recipe is a dry cat food designed to provide a high-protein, easily digestible diet with limited ingredients.

The first ingredient is chicken, offering a high-quality protein source that supports muscle maintenance and overall health.

Chicken meal and dried egg product enhance the protein content, providing essential amino acids for cats’ energy needs.

Pea protein, pea starch, and cassava root flour serve as alternative carbohydrate sources, replacing traditional grains.

Natural fiber from pea fiber and dried carrots helps promote digestion and supports hairball control.

Bacillus coagulans (600 million CFU/lb) is included as a natural probiotic to support gut health and immune function.

Added vitamins and minerals, including vitamin E, zinc, and selenium, contribute to skin and coat health and provide antioxidant protection.

This formula is free from corn, wheat, soy, poultry by-product meal, and artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives, making it suitable for cats with food sensitivities.

Pros:

  • High-protein formula: 35% crude protein from chicken, chicken meal, and egg supports lean muscle maintenance.

  • Digestive health support: Natural probiotics (600 million CFU/lb) and fiber sources help maintain a balanced gut microbiome.

  • No artificial additives: Free from artificial colors, flavors, preservatives, and poultry by-product meals.

  • Essential nutrients for skin and coat: Contains omega fatty acids, vitamin E, and zinc to promote skin health and a shiny coat.

Cons:

  • Moderate fat content: At 14% crude fat, it may not be ideal for cats requiring a low-fat diet.

  • Higher carbohydrate inclusion: Pea starch and cassava root flour contribute to the overall carbohydrate content.

  • Potential allergens: Chicken and egg proteins may not be suitable for cats with sensitivities to poultry-based ingredients.

  • Limited meat variety: Only chicken and egg are included as primary animal protein sources.

    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.
