Generic animal terms weaken transparency because the source material is less clear.
Partially supported because transparency-focused guidance supports caution around vague sourcing, while the severity of the penalty remains internal methodology.
Matched ingredients: fish oil
Legume-heavy formulas deserve closer interpretation when they materially shape the ingredient deck.
Internal methodology only because this layer uses legume presence as a prompt for closer context review, not as proof of harm or poor formulation.
Matched ingredients: whole chickpeas, whole peas, whole red lentils, whole green lentils, pea starch
Legumes are materially present in the ingredient deck and should be interpreted in context.
Internal methodology only because this layer uses legume presence as a prompt for closer context review, not as proof of harm or poor formulation.
Matched ingredients: whole chickpeas, whole peas, whole red lentils, whole green lentils, pea starch
Named marine oils are a useful positive signal for skin, coat, and inflammatory support.
Partially supported because broad literature context exists, but product-level effect and dosing relevance are not mapped here.
Matched ingredients: fish oil
The ingredient deck clearly includes named animal protein rather than relying on vague animal terms.
Partially supported because transparency-focused guidance and professional review norms support the direction of this interpretation, but the exact signal effect is internal.
Matched ingredients: Beef
Targeted fibers such as pumpkin or chicory can support stool quality and digestive tolerance.
Partially supported because digestive-support framing is literature-informed, but real-world tolerance remains context-dependent.
Matched ingredients: dried chicory root
The ingredient panel includes vague generic animal terminology that weakens transparency.
Partially supported because vague ingredient naming can reasonably weaken transparency confidence, while the downstream impact remains internal.
Matched ingredients: fish oil
