Ingredient concerns

• Chickpeas (low concern): Another legume included in the FDA's investigation into grain-free diets and potential DCM risk. Frequently used in grain-free pet foods as a carbohydrate source. The same concerns about taurine metabolism interference apply as with peas and lentils.
• Lentils (low concern): Like peas, lentils are part of the legume family implicated in the FDA's ongoing investigation into grain-free diets and DCM in dogs. Their high use in grain-free formulations as both carbohydrate and protein sources has raised concerns about potential interference with taurine metabolism.
• Sodium Selenite (low concern): Sodium selenite is an inorganic form of selenium with a narrower safety margin than organic forms (such as selenium yeast). It has lower bioavailability and higher potential for toxicity at elevated levels compared to organic selenium sources. Some premium pet foods use selenium yeast instead as a safer alternative.
