What is Petabolix?

Petabolix generates nutritional assessments based on the individual characteristics of each pet. It then compares thousands of pet foods in its industry-leading database to determine which options best meet that pet’s specific needs. Recommendations are grounded in science, not consumer reviews or advertising. The database continually expands as new diets enter the market, and the algorithms are consistently refined to reflect advancements in animal nutritional science. By removing the confusion from choosing pet food, Petabolix helps pets live longer, healthier lives through proper nutrition while giving pet parents peace of mind that they are providing the right food.
