Summary

Poultry refers to the meat derived from domesticated birds such as chicken or turkey, and is of animal origin. It serves as a high-quality source of protein, essential amino acids, and vital nutrients like B vitamins and minerals, supporting muscle development and overall health. In pet food, poultry is typically used in its natural, whole form, ensuring optimal nutrient availability and palatability for pets.

Manufacturer Benefits

Poultry is included as a primary animal protein source to meet nutritional requirements and enhance palatability for pets. Its use also allows manufacturers to market the product as containing real meat, appealing to consumer preferences.
