Summary

Wysong Optimize Beef Heart & Liver is a high-protein, meat-based dry food designed to supplement or serve as a standalone meal for cats, dogs, and ferrets, with a formulation that closely mirrors the natural carnivorous diet of felines.
The first ingredient, beef heart, is a nutrient-dense organ meat rich in taurine, iron, and B vitamins, supporting cardiovascular health, energy metabolism, and muscle maintenance in cats.
Beef liver, the second ingredient, provides a concentrated source of vitamin A, copper, and essential amino acids, contributing to immune function, vision, and skin health.
With a crude protein content of 44% and fat at 28%, the formula delivers a highly concentrated energy source ideal for active or underweight cats, or as a nutritional enhancer for standard diets.
The inclusion of Wysong’s DentaTreat™ adds oral health benefits through natural enzymes and probiotics, supporting dental hygiene and digestive balance.
Green-lipped mussel is a functional ingredient known for its natural glucosamine and omega-3 content, which may support joint health and reduce inflammation.
An organic mushroom blend—including shiitake, maitake, and reishi—offers immune-modulating beta-glucans and antioxidants that may enhance overall immune resilience.
Multiple strains of probiotics, such as Enterococcus faecium and Lactobacillus species, contribute to gut microbiota stability and improved nutrient absorption.
Cheese varieties like cheddar and Swiss enhance palatability while contributing additional protein and calcium, though they may increase fat and sodium levels.
With only 0.5% crude fiber and 4% moisture, the product is highly concentrated and should be introduced gradually or used in rotation to avoid digestive upset.

Cons
Expand All
1

High fat content

At 28% crude fat, the formula may be excessive for sedentary or overweight cats if not portioned carefully.
2

Low fiber level

With only 0.5% crude fiber, the product may not support optimal stool quality or satiety in some cats.
3

Cheese inclusion

Multiple cheese ingredients increase palatability but may contribute to higher sodium and lactose content, which can be problematic for sensitive cats.
4

Lack of declared mineral values

Absence of calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium data limits assessment of long-term suitability for urinary or kidney health.
5

Not a complete diet by default

Intended as a supplement or rotational food, it may not meet all daily nutritional requirements unless used as part of a balanced regimen.

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.
