Is Goodness Gracious Reveal - Metabolic Health Recipe a good dog food?

We score it 57/100 (Average). This reflects the ingredient quality, composition and label transparency of the recipe as declared on the label.

How we score

Why this score?

We gave this recipe a score of 57 out of 100. The overall quality of the ingredient list contributed +8.3 points, while ingredients without printed percentages cost -10.6 points. The processing format took -2.4 off, and the oil and fat content cost -0.9 points.

Only part of the analytical constituents are declared, so the nutritional picture is incomplete.

100% of this recipe has no printed percentage. Estimated shares are model estimates, not label facts.

The Recipe score measures how attractive and transparent the declared ingredient list is. It is not, by itself, proof that the food is nutritionally appropriate for long-term feeding. The Nutritional and Evidence scores measure what we can verify towards that stronger claim.

Why you might choose it

  • Doesn't list grain ingredients.
  • A minimally processed format: kept frozen, not heat-treated.
  • Declares energy content, which most labels omit.

Why you might not

  • 100% of the recipe mass has no printed percentage, so the exact split cannot be verified.
  • Needs freezer space and defrosting before serving.

Who is this food for?

Suits

  • Labelled by the manufacturer for adult dogs
  • Grain-free: no grain ingredients listed
  • Doesn't list chicken, beef, turkey, lamb, venison, duck as ingredients

Consider something else if:

  • Your dog avoids fish: the label lists pollock
  • Your dog avoids pork: it is listed as an ingredient
  • You want a single-protein recipe: this one lists more than one animal protein

These points are derived from declared ingredients and analysis, not a substitute for veterinary advice. If your dog has a diagnosed condition, food choice is a medical nutrition decision: speak to your vet. Use the homepage filter to find foods that fit your dog.

Nutritional: declared analysis vs reference ranges

How the declared analysis compares with FEDIAF reference ranges for adult dogs. The label prints as-fed values; we convert to a dry-matter basis before scoring, and the bands are dry-matter ranges. Scores rise to 100 at the band midpoint: the reference is adequacy, not maximisation. Nutrients with a published upper limit taper again above it; fat is policed through calorie density rather than a direct penalty.

Guaranteed-analysis FEDIAF score: crude minimums and maximums are bounds, not typical values; moisture (a maximum) uses the processing median where available; experimental US score.

NutrientAs fed (label)Dry matter (scored)Score
Protein63225 (band 18 to 40%)100
Fat2071.4 (band 5.5 to 20%)100
Fibre517.9 (band 0.5 to 5%)100
Energy (kcal/100g)113403.6100

Fibre: Declared as a maximum; the high-fibre taper is not applied.

Scored over 4 declared nutrients (combined weight 60); undeclared nutrients do not affect the score. Moisture was not declared and was estimated at 72% from the food type.

Low confidence: partial analysis or moisture estimated from the food type.

This measures agreement with published reference ranges, not suitability for an individual dog. For medical conditions, follow veterinary guidance.

Transparency: what the label discloses

How much the manufacturer discloses, measured against the FEDIAF Code of Good Labelling Practice and Regulation 767/2009. Mandatory items dominate the weighting.

Safety: recall history

Recall and safety-notice history, time-decayed. This dimension is shown alongside the score and never feeds the headline number.

No recalls recorded in our database.

Evidence: what the brand claims, and what supports it

The claims made on the pack and product page, checked against the declared label. We record claims as stated; "consistent" means our stored label data supports the claim, "contradicted" means it conflicts with it. Functional claims are recorded but never scored.

100/100 · strong — 3 checkable claims: 3 consistent, 0 contradicted.

Consistent with the label

  • "No soy, no corn, no gluten-containing grains (like wheat, barley, or rye). No white potato or white rice." — supported by the declared grain-free data.
  • "high protein, low-fat, no-carbohydrates; low-glycemic" — supported by the declared high protein data.
  • "Designed by holistic veterinarians and herbalists, Reveal is a high protein, moderate fat, low carb food." — supported by the declared high protein data.

7 further claims on file that we cannot check against the label.

Strong: at least three checkable claims, all consistent with the declared label, and no compliance cap.
