What is a guaranteed analysis?
A guaranteed analysis is required on pet food labels and displays the macronutrient levels in the food. Essentially, it gives owners an idea of a product's nutrient content.
Crude protein, crude fat, crude fibre and moisture are the ones required to be listed on the label but it may sometimes also include additional information like calcium, omega 3, and sodium content.
Labelling of a guaranteed analysis is required by AAFCO, the governing body of pet food. This means that you will find the guaranteed analysis somewhere on the pet food packaging, usually the sides or back of the bag/box. At Kabo, we list our guaranteed analysis on the feeding guide that is included with every order.
