INGREDIENT
Ascorbic Acid
(Source of Vitamin C.)
Why it turns up in dog food
- Vitamin C acts as an antioxidant and helps preserve the food. Dogs make their own vitamin C, so dietary vitamin C is a supplement rather than a requirement.
An ingredient on its own tells you very little.
What matters is how much of it there is and where it sits in the list. That is why we weigh
the top five rather than reacting to any single name further down.
