Description
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
ROYAL CANIN® Diabetic diet is specifically formulated to help in the management
of glucomodulation in diabetic cats. A diabetic cat does not produce sufficient
insulin or cannot utilise it normally so his blood sugar levels elevate. This
can cause many health issues. Eating a meal results in a rise of blood glucose
levels. In diabetic cats, the goal is to maintain the levels within a safe range
throughout the day. Maintaining a stable, ideal body weight is an important
dietetic approach. ROYAL CANIN® Diabetic diet is formulated with a low level
of digestible carbohydrate and a high level of protein. The moderate fat content
helps maintain a healthy body weight, while rich antioxidants help maintain
health and vitality. Recommended for cases of: Diabetes Mellitus and a Body
Condition Score (BCS) 6/9; Diabetes Mellitus and a BCS 7/9, until glycaemic
control has been achieved. Please refer to the guide to Nutritional Management
of Diabetes decision tree for additional information. Not recommeded in case of:
Growth, gestation, lactation.
