Nutram
Sound Balanced Wellness - S5 Adult and Senior, Chicken Meal and Salmon Meal Recipe
Summary
Nutram Sound Balanced Wellness S5 Adult and Senior is a dry cat food formulated to support the nutritional needs of adult and senior cats.
It promotes urinary health, skin and coat maintenance, and overall well-being.
Chicken meal, deboned chicken, and salmon meal serve as the primary protein sources, providing essential amino acids for muscle preservation and overall health.
A blend of peas, oatmeal, brown rice, and pearled barley supplies digestible carbohydrates for sustained energy, while lentils and dehydrated alfalfa meal contribute additional plant-based protein and fiber.
Cranberries and celery seeds help support urinary health by maintaining proper pH levels and promoting hydration through their natural diuretic properties.
Salmon oil and flaxseed are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, which support skin hydration and a healthy, glossy coat.
Pumpkin, carrots, and apples offer natural fiber sources to aid digestion, while chicory root extract helps maintain gut microbiome balance.
Herbal ingredients such as chamomile, turmeric, peppermint, and ginger provide natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits to support immune health.
With a 32% protein content and a moderate 15% fat level, this formula balances energy needs while supporting senior cats with a controlled calorie intake.
Pros:
Urinary tract support: Cranberries and celery seeds help maintain proper pH levels and promote hydration.
Skin and coat health: Salmon oil and flaxseed provide omega-3 fatty acids that nourish the skin and promote a healthy coat.

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.
