*Calculations performed using values of 4 kcal/g for protein and carbohydrate and 9 kcal/g for oil (fat).
t Digestible Energy (DE) is the total (gross) amount of energy in the diet minus the energy eliminated in the feces. It accounts for energy contained in the indigestible portion of the diet. Of the digestible energy, some is lost as a result of various metabolic processes in the urine and sometimes in gases from the digestive tract. The remaining energy in the body is available to support metabolism and is known as the Metabolizable Energy (ME). This value more accurately reflects the usable energy contained in the diet.

•Nutrient levels are calculated from raw material data and are adjusted to 10% moisture level in the diet. Nutrient values may vary due to the inherent variability in the natural ingredients and from laboratory analysis.
