Whether a vitamin is developed synthetically or from a natural source the yield qualities will vary. Some vitamins need other elements to aid absorption of the nutrient.

Re: 0rijen puppy food

A pinch of psyllium (what part, who knows?) as fibre isn't the end of the world, there's more choline chloride in there than psyllium - a very small amount and not really a grain as such in this sense. E. faecium is a probiotic bacteria, nothing to worry about there either imho.

Re: 0rijen puppy food

I order mine through Mutley & Mog.

Useful as the postage is DHL next day so I order when I know I have a day off.
