Proactive Health - Healthy Adult With Chicken
Summary
IAMS Proactive Health Healthy Adult With Chicken is a dry food formulated for adult cats, designed to promote digestive health, muscle maintenance, and coat quality with a chicken-based recipe and balanced nutrient profile.
Chicken is the first ingredient, serving as the primary source of animal protein to support lean muscle development and energy for daily activity.
The recipe includes a tailored fiber blend composed of beet pulp and prebiotics, which promotes nutrient absorption and maintains a healthy digestive tract.
Corn, wheat, and dried egg product are present as carbohydrate and secondary protein sources, contributing both energy and structural protein support.
Chicken fat and fish oil supply essential fatty acids, with an optimized omega-6 to omega-3 ratio to promote coat sheen and skin hydration.
The crunchy kibble texture contributes to dental health by helping reduce plaque accumulation through mechanical cleaning action.
The formula is fortified with calcium and potassium for cardiovascular support, alongside taurine, which is standard inclusion for vision and heart health.

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.
