Summary

Eminent Light/Sterile 30/10 is a dry cat food formulated specifically for adult cats that are overweight or have been neutered, addressing their unique metabolic and hormonal needs with a reduced-fat, high-protein recipe.
The first ingredient, dehydrated poultry meal, provides a concentrated source of animal protein, contributing to the product’s 78% animal-origin protein content, which supports lean muscle maintenance while minimizing fat gain.
With a crude protein level of 30% and fat content of 10%, the formula is designed to help manage weight without compromising essential amino acid intake, making it suitable for cats with lower energy requirements.
Rice and maize serve as digestible carbohydrate sources that offer a slow release of energy, helping to prolong satiety and reduce overeating in cats with increased appetite post-neutering.
The inclusion of a herbal complex—featuring nettle, anise, and Yucca schidigera—supports liver detoxification, digestive health, and immune function, while also helping to reduce fecal odor.
Cranberry extract adds urinary tract support through its natural diuretic and antibacterial properties, which are particularly beneficial for sterilized cats prone to urinary issues.
Flaxseed and coconut oil contribute to the omega-3 (0.3%) and omega-6 (2.9%) fatty acid profile, promoting healthy skin and coat condition.
Functional fibers from peas, vegetable fiber, and dried apples aid in digestive regularity and help control hairball formation.
Essential nutrients such as taurine (2000 mg/kg), lysine, and methionine support heart health, immune function, and overall vitality.
With a metabolizable energy value of 3403 kcal/kg, the food provides a balanced energy density appropriate for weight control in less active or indoor cats.

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.
