Key Benefits

Key Benefits
- No rapid glucose releasing carbohydrates with a high glycaemic index (e.g. rice) – helps to maintain a normal blood glucose and insulin response
- Special carbohydrate blend of sorghum and barley – low glycaemic index (slow glucose releasing) carbohydrates that help to support a normal blood glucose and insulin response
- Special fermentable fibre blend (FOS 1%, beet pulp 4%, gum arabic 1.2%) – helps to manage the glucose supply within the body
- Carboxymethylcellulose (CMC 0.92%) – modifies the viscosity of the digested food and helps regulate the supply of glucose to the body
- Low energy density and reduced fat (46% less fat vs EUKANUBA Adult Medium Breed) and an appropriate level of animal-based protein – helps manage an ideal weight and maintain lean muscle mass to support a healthy body composition (fat vs. lean muscle)
- L-carnitine – supports fat metabolism
- Weight loss and weight maintenance feeding regimes – provides you with maximum flexibility to help manage your dog’s weight loss as well as well as maintain his ideal weight.
- High quality animal-based protein – helps maintain lean muscle mass.
- Targeted omega-6:omega-3 fatty acid ratio – helps nutritionally soothe joint stiffness.
- Vitamin E – an antioxidant to support strong natural defenses.
- Beet pulp – a clinically proven moderately fermentable fibre that produces butyrate, a short-chain fatty acid, which is a preferential energy source for the cells of the large intestine. Helps maintain intestinal health and optimal stool consistency.
- FOS (fructooligosaccharides) – the prebiotics fructooligosaccharides (FOS) to maintain digestive health and support nutrient absorption.
- DentaDefense – to help reduce tartar build-up across the whole mouth during and beyond mealtime.
EUKANUBA Veterinary Diets Weight/Diabetic Control for Dogs is formulated with a low energy density and contains a special carbohydrate and fibre blend that helps to maintain a normal glucose and insulin response after a meal. The carbohydrate blend contains low levels of rapid glucose releasing carbohydrates. The reduced fat level of 8%* aids in achieving and maintaining a healthy body condition, plus L-carnitine helps the oxidation of fat. Weight/Diabetic Control for Dogs should be fed initially for up to 6 months for the regulation of glucose supply (Diabetes mellitus), and for the reduction of excessive body weight then feed until target body weight is achieved.
