Nude Super Food Simply Sea Dry Dog Food
Verified Jun 11, 2026
This is a high‑protein, grain‑free dry food for dogs that uses whitefish, menhaden fish meal, and salmon meal as its main protein sources. Peas, chickpeas, lentils, and sweet potato provide most of the carbohydrates, while added omega fatty acids, taurine, probiotics, and digestive enzymes support overall nutrition and digestion. It is formulated for all life stages except large‑breed puppy growth, so it can suit many dogs as long as they don’t need a large‑breed puppy formula.
Nutritionally, this is a solid, higher-protein, fish-focused kibble that should suit many adult dogs and smaller-breed puppies who do well on grain-free formulas. It offers good omega-3 levels, added taurine, and probiotic/enzyme blends, which can be helpful for skin, coat, and digestive health. Because legumes and pea protein are high on the list, I would be cautious using this as a sole long-term diet in breeds with any concern for heart disease and would avoid it for large-breed puppies.

At a Glance
What "not formulated for" means
Life stages this food isn't certified complete and balanced for, based on its AAFCO statement.KibbleLab Review
Strengths
- Fish-based proteins (whitefish, menhaden fish meal, salmon meal) provide high-quality amino acids and natural omega-3s.
- 34% protein and 13% fat on an as-fed basis give a relatively high-protein profile for active dogs.
- Added omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, plus EPA and DHA, support skin, coat, and overall health.
- Includes taurine, prebiotic chicory root, probiotics, and digestive enzymes, which can support gut health and nutrient digestion.
Considerations
- Peas, chickpeas, lentils, and pea protein are major ingredients, so this is a legume-heavy, grain-free diet linked in some studies to heart issues in certain dogs.
- Not appropriate for large-breed puppies due to AAFCO statement excluding growth of large dogs over 70 lb adult weight.
- Fish and fish meals are common allergens, so this may not be suitable for dogs with known fish allergies.
- The moderate fat level may be a bit rich for dogs who need a very low-fat diet for medical reasons.

Top 5 Ingredients Explained
01
Whitefish
Whitefish (such as pollock, cod, or haddock) is commonly used in pet foods as a lean animal protein source that provides high‑quality essential amino acids, good digestibility, and some omega‑3 fatty acids to support skin, coat and muscle maintenance. While generally palatable and useful for weight‑managed formulas, pet parents should be aware of potential fish allergies and the importance of responsible sourcing and processing to minimize contaminants; cats also require adequate dietary taurine, so whitefish should be part of a complete, balanced diet.
02
Menhaden Fish
Menhaden fish is used in pet foods primarily as a high-quality animal protein and as a concentrated source of fish oil rich in omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), which support healthy skin and coat, joint mobility, and anti‑inflammatory benefits for dogs and cats. It enhances palatability and provides essential micronutrients like iodine and selenium, but owners should be aware of possible fish allergies, caloric density and oil oxidation, and prefer products from reputable, sustainably sourced suppliers to reduce contamination risks.
03
Salmon
Salmon is commonly used as a high-quality animal protein and rich source of omega‑3 fatty acids (EPA/DHA) in dog and cat foods, supporting skin and coat condition, joint and cognitive health, and overall muscle maintenance. While very nutritious, salmon can be an allergen for some pets and raw salmon may pose risks from parasites, thiaminase-related thiamine loss, and region-specific pathogens (e.g., salmon poisoning); owners should avoid feeding uncooked bones and consider sourcing to minimize contaminant and sustainability concerns.
04
Pea
Pea is a plant-based ingredient used in pet foods as a source of protein, soluble and insoluble fiber, and micronutrients (often included as whole peas, pea flour, or pea protein concentrate) to boost protein content and improve texture. While peas can provide digestible carbohydrates, fiber, and some plant protein useful especially for dogs, they are not a complete protein for obligate carnivores like cats and — when overused, particularly in concentrated forms or as a major component of grain‑free diets — have been scrutinized for a possible association with canine dilated cardiomyopathy and can contribute to nutrient imbalances or excess calories, so balanced formulation and compliance with AAFCO nutritional profiles are important.
05
Chickpea
Chickpeas are a legume commonly used in pet foods as a plant-based protein, source of digestible carbohydrates, and supply of soluble and insoluble fiber that helps with stool quality and satiety. They can be a useful ingredient for dogs but are not a complete protein for obligate carnivores like cats and may cause gas or digestive upset if underprocessed; additionally, high inclusion of legumes in some grain‑free diets has been discussed as a potential factor in canine dilated cardiomyopathy so diets should be balanced and any concerns discussed with your veterinarian.
