Pet Foods from Petcurean
Petcurean
uses proteins of high biological value, as all proteins are
not created equal. Every protein source in GO Natrual Dog Food
contains different levels of amino acids and
each protein is different in its ability to be broken down
into amino acids. Some are better for
pets than others. The ability of a
protein to be used by the body and its amount of usable
amino acids is summarized as
protein quality (biological value).
Egg
has the highest biological value
at 100, and sets the standard from which others are
measured. Fish meal and milk
are close behind with a value of 92. Beef is around
78 and soybean meal is 67. Meat and bone meal and wheat
are around 50 and corn is 45.
Things
like hair and feathers would be
very high in protein but would be down at the bottom of
the list for biological value. The actual composition of
individual proteins that Petcurean uses, as
well as the utilization of amino
acids, is very detailed and beyond the scope of this
article, but in summary, we see
that all proteins are not created equal.
