How PetScored treats it

Named does not mean perfect. Unnamed does not mean automatically unsafe.

PetScored scores ingredient clarity, not marketing language. The system rewards specificity and flags ambiguity.

Ingredient pages should cite source limits and avoid medical claims unless reviewed by qualified experts.
