Weight Reduction, Dog

The moderate content of fat and high content of fibre result in a low energy density. Even during a period of weight reduction, this will enable the owner to feed a considerable amount of food, supporting that the dog’s appetite has been sated.

L-carnitine transports fatty acids into the mitochondria and stimulates oxidation of fat and preservation of muscles.

The high protein content supports maintenance of muscles and satiation of the dog’s appetite during the weight reduction period.

Omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) help maintain normal mobility in joints of obese dogs. Omega-3 fatty acids also support a healthy skin and coat.

Diabetes mellitus: The content of complex carbohydrates and the high level of fibre promote a gradual release of glucose from the diet, making it suitable for patients with diabetes mellitus.
