Summary

NutriBest Adult Sterilized Salmon & Rice is a dry food formulated for sterilized adult cats.
It focuses on weight control, urinary health, and coat support.
The formula includes chicken meal (21%) as the primary protein source, with added salmon meal (4%) and rice (4%), contributing to a total crude protein content of 28%.
Crude fat is kept low at 9% to help prevent post-sterilization weight gain, while fish oil (1%) and marine algae (0.5%) provide omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids for skin and coat health.
Maize, wheat, and rice provide carbohydrates, while beet pulp and brewer’s yeast (3%) offer fiber and B vitamins for digestive support and metabolic function.
Balanced minerals and reduced fat content aim to support urinary tract health, with taurine (1,170 mg/kg) and antioxidants from vitamins A and E aiding vision, immunity, and cellular protection.
The food contains 6.5% ash, 3.5% fiber, and is free from artificial flavors, colorants, and added sugar, offering a clean formulation for sensitive systems.
It is designed in collaboration with veterinarians to meet the nutritional needs of sterilized adult cats of all breeds.

Cons
Expand All
1

Low salmon content

Despite the product name, salmon meal is only 4% of the composition and not the primary protein.
2

Grain-heavy formulation

Includes maize, wheat, and rice, which may not suit cats with grain sensitivities.
3

No fresh meat ingredients

Protein sources are all rendered meals or isolates, potentially affecting palatability.
4

High fiber for some cats

3.5% fiber may not suit all cats, especially those with more sensitive digestion.
5

No joint health nutrients

Glucosamine and chondroitin are not included, limiting support for long-term mobility.

Notes

Information about antioxidants and preservatives is missing or insufficient. Since I didn’t want to remove points due to this missing info without any proof, I evaluated this food assuming the natural preservatives were used. But note that this is just an assumption.

How the score is calculated?

The actual calculation of the score is based on sophisticated and advanced algorithm that takes into account multiple parameters.

To simplify the explanation, the calculation is based on three main criteria:

(1) Amount of protein (more is better)

(2) Amount of carbohydrates (less is better)

(3) Quality and source of ingredients.

Based on that 3 main criteria, 9 score calculation rules are used to compare the different foods.

One major assumption is that the closer an ingredient is to the top of the ingredient list, the greater its relative weight and contribution to the food.

In general, cat food is composed of protein, fats, carbohydrates, fibers, vitamins, and minerals.

Protein is the most important component in a cat's diet, and cats primarily get their protein from animal meat.

Fat is a primary source of energy and essential fatty acids.

Carbohydrates are controversial in a cat's diet, as cats are obligate carnivores and typically consume very few carbohydrates.

Fibers play an important role in digestion and food absorption, and vitamins and minerals are essential for different organism functions.

Dry matter values are used to compare the amount of nutrients in different cat foods. This means that moisture is excluded from the equation to provide a more accurate comparison.

Putting all of these and more into a formula results in a product score.

The maximum score a cat food can receive is 100. Points are added or removed based on the score calculation rules.
