FEDIAF updates its nutritional guidelines for cat and dog food

The European Pet Food Federation updates its go-to source for manufacturers in their mission to provide safe, palatable and nutritious food for pets.

FEDIAF worked withthe Scientific Advisory Board (SAB) to provide state of the art recommendations.

The updated guidelines reflect the latest scientific nutritional studies on pet food. As Thomas Brenten, chair of the Nutrition Working Group, explains, “based on the review on the recent nutritional scientific literature, several updates were made, which include phosphorus and an updated calculation for energy requirements for puppies.”
