Ocean Star Disadvantages

1. Vitamin D is seriously exceeded
far exceeding the EU’s maximum limit of 2000 IU/kg (mass calculated as 88% dry matter). In Youke's evaluation system, it directly leads to a 4-level downgrade, and excessive intake of vitamin D can lead to high calcium and phosphorus levels in the blood, arteriosclerosis, increased urine output, and diarrhea and bloody stools. The vitamin content of the other nine products was within the normal range. If it were in the UK, it would be impossible for this Ocean Star to be marketed in compliance with EU standards, but it could come to China as a British imported grain. The editor fell into deep thought...

2. Shandong Mai Fudi Foundry
In November 2017, Ocean Star has been replaced by No. 8 Mudanjiang Road, Liaocheng Economic Development Zone, Shandong, China (Mai Fudi ) OEM factory production, so it can be said that it is now a truly domestically produced grain.
3. The protein content is not high
The crude protein content is not very high, and the crude fat is also 12%, which means that this dog food is not suitable for high-fat dogs. Dogs who exercise a lot will be slightly deficient in nutrient density and energy, and they can only make up for it by eating more.
4. The addition of amino acids is ambiguous
Ocean Star marked "amino acids ≥ 3.5%", but amino acids are a general term, including cystine, methionine, etc. 20 There are many kinds of lysine. The national standard has clear requirements for lysine. It should be greater than or equal to 0.77% in puppy food, and greater than or equal to 0.63% in adult dog food. Shenzhen Ocean Star Pet Food Co., Ltd. responded that it needed to consult the British brand, but there was no amino acid value in the English label, and it was only marked on the Chinese label.
5. False labeling of crude fiber content
Crude fiber was originally promised to be less than 2.5%, but in the test report it was as high as 5.5%, which is suspected of false labeling. High crude fiber will lead to heavy stools.

Disadvantages of Bowang dog food

Poor palatability: Because it is a natural food, its palatability will be worse than commercial food. Food times may be difficult. In addition, the packaging is relatively unremarkable, and it is easy to get lost among the many dog ​​foods. In addition, Bowang dog food is quite outstanding in other aspects, and it can be regarded as a more conscientious one among domestic food.
To sum up, both products focus on natural grains, and their palatability is somewhat inferior. However, they can be said to have their own strengths in terms of nutritional content. Please purchase wisely.
