Comparing omega-6 claims starts with the stated substance and basis. A ratio shown in marketing does not replace the underlying figures or establish a dietary benefit for your dog.
What to check
| Check | What to verify |
|---|---|
| Claim | Copy the complete wording rather than the highlighted number. |
| Data | Ask which measured values support a printed ratio. |
| Context | Keep total and individually named fatty acids separate. |

A practical example
If one product supplies a ratio and another supplies percentages, mark the comparison incomplete until compatible figures are available.
Before you decide
Do not calculate missing nutrients from a marketing ratio alone.
