Is limited ingredient dog food better for dogs?

Limited ingredient dog food keeps things simple by using fewer ingredients, often just one animal protein source and a small selection of carefully chosen carbohydrates. This can make it easier to identify foods that agree with your dog’s system, which is especially helpful for pets with sensitive stomachs or potential food sensitivities.

By cutting out unnecessary extras, limited ingredient diets focus on providing complete & balanced nutrition from wholesome, high-quality sources. Limited ingredient dog food is a great option for dogs with sensitivities, making mealtime easier on your dog’s digestion and tailored to their well-being.

Natural Balance® Limited Ingredient recipes are crafted with that philosophy in mind. Each formula is designed to support healthy digestion, provide single animal protein recipes to help support food sensitivities, and deliver the taste they love. Natural Balance Limited Ingredient recipes offer 7 different protein options, with grain free and wholesome grain options, as well as a vegetarian option. Fewer ingredients, more trust. That’s the Natural Balance way.

Natural Balance pioneered the Limited Ingredient Diet and continues to lead the industry in Limited Ingredient dog and cat food. That’s why veterinarians recommend Natural Balance Limited Ingredient recipes for dogs with dietary sensitivities.
