What to watch for

• BHA High risk
  A synthetic preservative that keeps fats from going rancid. The U.S. National Toxicology Program lists BHA as 'reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen' based on animal studies. Natural alternatives (mixed tocopherols) exist.
• Meat and bone meal Moderate risk
  Rendered mammal tissue including bone, from unnamed species. High in minerals (ash) and usually less digestible than a named meat meal.
• Corn Low risk
  Cooked corn is a digestible source of energy and some protein. It is often criticised but is not a common allergen; its main risk is mould toxins (aflatoxin) when quality control is poor.
• Soybean meal Low risk
  Ground soybeans after oil extraction, a cheap plant protein. Soy is a recognised food allergen in some dogs and can cause gas.
• Wheat middlings Low risk
  A milling by-product of wheat flour, a cheap source of fiber and energy.
• Animal fat Low risk
  Fat rendered from unnamed animals. A fine energy source, but the species is not disclosed and it is often preserved with BHA; check what follows it in brackets.
• Natural flavor Low risk
  Flavoring from natural sources. Normally safe, but the term can hide which animal or plant it came from, which matters for allergies.
• Brewers rice Low risk
  Small broken pieces of rice left over from milling. Digestible energy but fewer nutrients than whole rice.
