A salmon recipe with a modest probiotic

- Modest
- Meaningful
Purina guarantees at least 162 million Bacillus coagulans CFU per cup, giving the claim a measurable floor. That is a modest gut nudge, not a treatment for chronic digestive trouble.
Modest Real, but smaller than the pack makes it sound.
Salmon leads, while rice, barley and canola meal occupy three of the next four spots. Plants carry real weight here.
