[en] Over the last 10 years the number of premium foods is increasing in the petfood industry for companion animals. It is often difficult for the vets in practice to compare different premium foods. The ingredients sources used in diet formulation remain a criterion to indirectly evaluate the quality. A judicious choice of feedstuffs directly influences palatability and digestibility of each diet. The present paper aims to describe the different nutrient sources used in the premium foods industry. Each nutrient and its sources are presented separately starting by protein, fat and carbohydrates and ending with vitamins and minerals. Labelling according to the offical recommandations is also reported.
