INGREDIENT
Yucca Schidigera
A desert plant whose extract is rich in saponins.
Why it turns up in dog food
- Its saponins bind ammonia, which is why it is included to reduce stool odor. Also traditionally associated with joint comfort.
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.
