MAIN BENEFITS AND FEATURES

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

Moderately restricted feeding
The composition and feeding guidelines are designed to achieve slow and steady weight reduction (efficacy demonstrated by Virbac)(1).

Improves lean-to-fat mass ratio
High protein and low carbohydrate levels help maintain lean body mass during weight loss and support body composition after weight reduction (efficacy demonstrated by Virbac)(2).

Excellent palatability
The food contains a high level of animal protein and fat, ensuring good palatability (efficacy demonstrated by Virbac)(1).

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

OTHER ADVANTAGES AND FEATURES

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

Supports joint health
Chondroitin sulphate and chitosan support joint function and help improve mobility and quality of life.

High fibre content
Fibre promotes satiety and helps regulate starch digestion and absorption.

Supports coat condition
A balanced amount of omega-6 and omega-3 fatty acids promotes coat health.

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

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