Royal Canin Diabetic Canine Diabetic Dog Food

Royal Canin Diabetic Canine is a complete and balanced food, specially formulated for the clinical management of diabetes in adult dogs of all sizes, and can even be used as a lifelong diet for your pet. The use of this food normally increases the pet's sensitivity to insulin. It is very important to monitor glucose levels and insulin response at the start of the diet to adjust the dose given.

This diabetic dog food helps to keep the glucose curve stabilised. The special dietary fibre it contains delays gastric emptying and slows the rate of starch breakdown. High levels of omega-3 fatty acids support long-term glycaemic control and high levels of protein also help to maintain your pet's muscle mass.

Diabetic dogs tend to be older, so these kibbles have a balanced supply of antioxidants to prevent the negative effect of free radicals, which cause cellular ageing. A high protein level helps to reduce net energy intake and also ensures a continuous and progressive source of glucose. The reduced starch and energy content limits weight gain and therefore obesity, as well as preventing a pre-diabetic state.
