NutriSource PureVita
Grain Free Salmon & Peas Entrée Cat Food
Summary
NutriSource PureVita Grain Free Salmon & Peas Entrée is a dry cat food formulated as a limited-ingredient, grain-free diet suitable for cats of all life stages, including both indoor and outdoor lifestyles.
Salmon is the primary animal protein source, offering a rich supply of omega-3 fatty acids and highly digestible protein to support lean muscle maintenance and skin health.
The inclusion of salmon meal further enhances the protein content while providing concentrated nutrients, such as DHA, which supports brain and eye development, particularly in kittens.
Peas, pea flour, and pea protein serve as the primary sources of carbohydrates and plant protein, contributing to energy levels and fiber content; however, they may be less biologically suitable than animal-based ingredients.
Flax seeds and sunflower oil enhance the omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acid profile, supporting a healthy coat and reducing inflammation.
The formula includes taurine at 1516 mg/kg, an essential amino acid that supports heart function, vision, and reproductive health in cats.
Probiotics such as Lactobacillus acidophilus and Enterococcus faecium, along with prebiotics like dried chicory root, help maintain a balanced gut microbiome and support digestive health.
Antioxidant-rich ingredients like dried cranberries, turmeric, and rosemary extract contribute to immune system support and cellular protection.
With a metabolizable energy of 3793 kcal/kg and 18% fat, the food provides a high energy density suitable for active cats or those with higher caloric needs.
The product is designed as a single-animal-protein diet, making it a potential option for cats with sensitivities to other protein sources.

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.
