🟡 Dried Beet Fiber in Pet Food

Grade C-2.5 ptsFiber & Superfoods

What It Is

"Dehydrated fiber from beets."

Health Impact

More consistent than beet pulp — this is specifically the fiber fraction, not a sugar-extraction by-product. Better than beet pulp for clean fiber delivery. Score: 6.5/10.

Why This Grade

A real but unresolved concern: often an ongoing FDA/AAFCO research question (like the grain-free/DCM investigation), a common allergen, or a vague-but-not-alarming label claim. -2.5 pts deducted.
