Royal Canin Dog Diabetic Special Low Carbohydrate Wet
For dogs over 1 year
DIABETIC SPECIAL should be fed for life.
Caution: The use of this diet increases insulin sensitivity. Monitoring of blood glucose levels and, if necessary, adjustment of the insulin dose is absolutely essential at the beginning of feeding.
Important notes:
- Veterinary diet food may only be given in consultation with the vet.
- While your pet is being treated with a veterinary diet food, you should visit the vet regularly (approx. every 6 months) for check-ups.
- If your pet’s health deteriorates, seek veterinary advice immediately.
Adapted starch content
A low starch content reduces the occurrence of postprandial hyperglycaemia.
Glucoregulation
The addition of cereals (maize) can effectively prevent postprandial hyperglycaemia.
High fibre content
Dietary fibre results in delayed absorption of nutrients in the small intestine and helps to control the blood sugar levels of affected dogs.
Protection through antioxidants
A synergistically acting combination of antioxidants (Vit. E, Vit. C, taurine, lutein) can help protect body cells against attack by aggressive metabolic products.
S/O Index
S/O-Index: Helps to prevent the two most common types of stones, struvite and (calcium) oxalate.
