Composition of Bab'in dry food

The uniqueness of Bab'in dry food lies in its composition: duck meat, natural grains, animal protein - they slow down the aging process of animals, promote good health and physical endurance.

The composition of Babin dry food is indicated on the food packaging.

Duck meat is a storehouse of vitamins and minerals. Vitamin A is responsible for visual acuity and cleanliness of the skin; there is twice as much of it in duck meat as in any other meat. Pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) helps eliminate metabolism, retinol and amino acids have a positive effect on reproductive function, betaine and choline are involved in the construction of cell membranes and stimulate the functioning of the nervous system.

Duck fat is chemically very similar to olive oil. It contains large quantities of vitamins E and B4. Of particular value are polyunsaturated fats Omega 3, Omega 6 and unique enzymes that improve metabolism in animals.

Cereals contain fiber, which cleanses the intestinal walls of waste and toxins. They contain the right carbohydrates, vegetable protein, vitamins B and E, and minerals - manganese, iron, magnesium, zinc.

Rice is a “cleaning sponge”: it cleanses the intestines, absorbs harmful substances, and helps remove toxins from the body.

Dog food "Babin" - reviews

Review of Bab'in dog food, Diana writes. Hi all. My dog tried many foods, refused some, ate others well, but there was always some problem. Fatty foods make the wool look bad, so I looked for low-calorie foods and found the French Babin. It smells nice, is tasty, the granules come in different varieties of different sizes, but they are easy to chew on everywhere. The composition of the food is not super-duper, but quite normal without any bells and whistles.

My dog eats a little less than normal, but she is neutered. The stool is normal, and finally six. In general, we didn’t have any problems with Bab’in food, the dog feels good and I’m happy. Therefore, I recommend the food, try it!

Review of Babin dog food, writes Victoria. We have two adult dogs and one puppy. More than a year ago, a new product appeared in the store where I usually buy food - Bab'in food. I took a 4 kg bag to try, both dogs liked it and we decided to switch to it. During the entire feeding period there were no problems, the new resident also liked the food, only after the first feeding diarrhea appeared, but it soon went away and there was no more (maybe it was not from the food).

The composition of the food is not very different from Royal Canin, which is premium, so I think that Bab'in does not correspond to the super-premium class as it is positioned. The only noticeable difference is how much meat is indicated; in the Republic of Kazakhstan, the last time I looked at the ingredients in the store, it was not indicated. In general, the food is not bad.

Bab'in Dog Food Review

If you look through the entire line of Bab'in food, you cannot help but notice that in some versions the composition is more attractive than in others.
This is because there are super-premium lines, and there are cheaper lines of premium dog food. But more about this in the next paragraph. This food is produced in France. Reviews of other brands:

Composition of Babin feed

Let's look at the composition of Bab'in food using the example of the Agi Pplus Senior option (for older dogs with duck meat). The first ingredient is “corn”; it is, of course, healthy, but as an additional component, and not as the basis of the food. In second place is “dehydrated protein of animal origin 23%”, since it is written “protein” and not “meat”, then the main part of the protein in the analysis (which is 24%) must be of animal origin.

It is worth noting that in different versions it is different: in some there is “dehydrated meat”, in others it is simply “meat”, in others it is like here. Looking further at the composition, we will see “cereals” (it is not specified which ones - this is bad), beet pulp, duck fat, corn gluten, etc. In general, nothing unusual, everything is like in most dog foods. Note that the list of excipients simply says “preservatives”, but in the original description in English they are listed (citric acid, sorbic acid).

Pros and cons of Bab'in food

The advantages include:

only meat is used, and not obscure offal;
very wide range;
low cost (although some options are, on the contrary, expensive);

The disadvantages include:

not all options have the same large percentage of meat;
in some variants the feed base is corn.

Babin Dog Food Review

Bab'in dry dog food is produced in France by Codico. The official website is https://www.codico-boutique.com/ (link to the English version), there is data on the entire line of food (compositions, recommended feeding rates, etc.). This food belongs to the premium class.

The Bab'in brand also produces cat food.

Babin food composition

Let's look at the composition of Babin food using the example of the Plus Poulet Adult Chicken option (for adult dogs of all breeds, with chicken). Let us immediately note that this food is positioned in Russian pet stores as super-premium, but the presence of corn and unspecified preservatives in it no longer allows it to be classified in this class.

Above is the composition data from the manufacturer’s official website. Below is the translation.

In first place is dehydrated poultry proteins 30% (chicken), which is a source of protein. There are no ingredients rich in plant protein, so we conclude that the bulk of the 27% protein indicated in the analysis is of animal origin.

Second and third place are rice and corn, respectively, sources of carbohydrates. Duck fat is a source of fats and fatty acids. Beet pulp is a source of fiber. Yeast contains many B vitamins. Animal protein hydrolyzate is a natural flavoring additive and also a source of protein.

Minerals - supplement of minerals. Salt is a flavoring additive. Flaxseed is a source of fiber and unsaturated fatty acids. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate are substances that are beneficial for joints.

Borage seeds are a source of fatty acids and fiber. Quillaja saponaria - as the manufacturer himself noted, this ingredient should reduce unpleasant odors. But it is not clear whether this is the smell of food or the smell of feces (as in the case of Yucca schidigera extract).

Regarding technological additives: preservatives and antioxidants are not specified; E562 (Sepiolite) is an emulsifier, used only in animal feed and banned in many countries for use in human food; E558 - This food additive is used as an anti-caking and anti-caking agent.

Advantages and disadvantages

The advantages of this food include:

the main part of the protein is of animal origin (better digestible than vegetable);
good vitamin and mineral supplement;
wide range, there is food for small, medium, large dogs, grain-free food.

Disadvantages of Babin food:

the preservatives used are not indicated;
not very common, sold in few pet stores;
quite high cost, some foods with better composition are cheaper.

Another disadvantage is that the Agi Plus line widely uses wheat and corn. But this is quite common for premium food.
