Description
Blue Buffalo Life Protection Formula was created for the health and well-being of dogs. All formulas start with real meat, whole grains, garden veggies and fruit, plus added LifeSource Bits, a precise blend of nutrients that have been enhanced with a Super 7 package of antioxidant-rich ingredients. This Adult Lamb & Brown Rice Recipe features delicious, protein-rich deboned lamb and has all the flavor your four-legged friend will love and all the benefits you will love!
BLUE Life Protection Formula is made with the finest natural ingredients and features:
- Delicious, protein-rich, Deboned Lamb
- Wholesome whole grains, garden veggies and fruit
- NO chicken (or poultry) by-product meals
- NO corn, wheat or soy
- NO artificial colors, flavors or preservatives
Without extra calories from fat, BLUE Life Protection Heatlhy Weight is formulated to help dogs achieve and maintain a healthy weight.
BLUE LifeSource Bits are a precise blend of antioxidants, vitamins and minerals selected by holistic veterinarians and animal nutritionists that support:
- Immune system health
- Life stage requirements
- Healthy oxidative balance
And LifeSource Bits are cold-formed to help retain the potency of their ingredients. This means that we minimize the amount of heat that LifeSource Bits are exposed to during the manufacturing process. It’s the same concept as when you cook vegetables at high heat — the longer you do, the more heat-sensitive nutrients are lost.
