Ingredient signals visualization

Generic animal ingredient

caution

Generic animal terms weaken transparency because the source material is less clear.

Partially supportedRefs 3
moderate

Partially supported because transparency-focused guidance supports caution around vague sourcing, while the severity of the penalty remains internal methodology.

Matched ingredients: Fish Oil (source of Omega 3 Fatty Acids)

IQ -6Digestibility -1Safety -5

Legume presence

caution

Legume-heavy formulas deserve closer interpretation when they materially shape the ingredient deck.

Internal methodologyRefs 1
low

Internal methodology only because this layer uses legume presence as a prompt for closer context review, not as proof of harm or poor formulation.

Ingredient rules
Presence alone should not be overstated.

Matched ingredients: Pea Protein, Peas, Pea Fiber

IQ -4Digestibility -3Safety -1

Legume presence signal

caution

Legumes are materially present in the ingredient deck and should be interpreted in context.

Internal methodologyRefs 1
low

Internal methodology only because this layer uses legume presence as a prompt for closer context review, not as proof of harm or poor formulation.

Ingredient rules
Presence alone should not be overstated.

Matched ingredients: Pea Protein, Peas, Pea Fiber

IQ -4Digestibility -2

Marine omega support

positive

Named marine oils are a useful positive signal for skin, coat, and inflammatory support.

Partially supportedRefs 2
low

Partially supported because broad literature context exists, but product-level effect and dosing relevance are not mapped here.

Omega-3 review [ext]Ingredient rules
Presence alone is not proof of efficacy, adequacy, or bioavailable dosing.

Matched ingredients: Fish Oil (source of Omega 3 Fatty Acids)

IQ +3Digestibility +1Safety +1

Named animal protein

positive

The ingredient deck clearly includes named animal protein rather than relying on vague animal terms.

Partially supportedRefs 3
moderate

Partially supported because transparency-focused guidance and professional review norms support the direction of this interpretation, but the exact signal effect is internal.

This is a transparency interpretation, not proof of superior health outcomes.

Matched ingredients: Deboned Chicken

IQ +6Digestibility +2Safety +2

Plant protein concentrate

caution

Plant protein concentrates can inflate crude protein impressions without matching animal-protein quality.

Partially supportedRefs 2
low

Partially supported because label-interpretation concerns are literature-informed, but the importance assigned to this signal is still internal methodology.

This is not proof that a product is nutritionally poor.

Matched ingredients: Pea Protein

IQ -8Digestibility -3Safety -1

Protein inflation signal

caution

This label includes a plant protein concentrate that may inflate the apparent protein story.

Internal methodologyRefs 1
low

Internal methodology only at this stage because the interpretation is used as a conservative review flag, not as a source-backed outcome claim.

Ingredient rules
The presence of this flag should trigger closer reading, not a definitive judgment.

Matched ingredients: Pea Protein

IQ -8Digestibility -2

Targeted fiber support

positive

Targeted fibers such as pumpkin or chicory can support stool quality and digestive tolerance.

Partially supportedRefs 2
low

Partially supported because digestive-support framing is literature-informed, but real-world tolerance remains context-dependent.

Gut diet review [ext]Ingredient rules

Matched ingredients: Dried Chicory Root

IQ +2Digestibility +5Safety +1

Transparency warning signal

caution

The ingredient panel includes vague generic animal terminology that weakens transparency.

Partially supportedRefs 3
moderate

Partially supported because vague ingredient naming can reasonably weaken transparency confidence, while the downstream impact remains internal.

Matched ingredients: Fish Oil (source of Omega 3 Fatty Acids)
