Hydrolyzed is part of an ingredient or product description. A shopper should retain the named protein and exact product identity, especially when asking a veterinary team to compare a prescribed plan.
What to check
| Check | What to verify |
|---|---|
| Name | Copy the full hydrolyzed ingredient wording. |
