MAIN BENEFITS AND FEATURES

Low energy content
The low energy density of the food is designed for rapid weight loss (efficacy demonstrated by Virbac)(1).

Improves lean-to-fat mass ratio
High protein and low carbohydrate levels help maintain lean body mass and reduce fat mass during weight loss (efficacy demonstrated by Virbac)(1).

Supports joint health
Added chondroitin sulphate and chitosan support the joints and help improve mobility and quality of life.

Crude fibre promotes satiety
The food is rich in crude fibre, particularly insoluble fibres, and contains a significant amount of protein. This composition promotes a feeling of fullness.

Low glycaemic index and total sugars
The formula is high in protein and low in carbohydrates, starch, and sugars. This composition reduces postprandial glucose and insulin peaks (efficacy demonstrated by Virbac)(1)(2) and supports the management of diabetes and insulin resistance.

OTHER ADVANTAGES AND FEATURES

Promotes fat metabolism
Added L-carnitine supports fat burning and helps maintain lean body mass during weight loss.

Increased vitamins and trace elements
(15% more compared to Veterinary HPM Adult Dog food)
The added vitamins and trace elements ensure the intake of essential nutrients during the feeding period.

Excellent palatability
High levels of animal protein and fat ensure good palatability for carnivorous dogs.

Suitable for adult and senior dogs
Provides all essential nutrients required for adult and senior dogs’ daily maintenance.

Available in 3 kg, 7 kg and 12 kg bags.
