Managing your dog's blood sugar doesn't have to be a daily struggle. Royal Canin® Canine Glycobalance for Small Dogs is a vet-exclusive formula specifically engineered to help regulate post-meal blood glucose levels.

Description

Diabetes and glucose fluctuations require more than just a standard diet; they demand a calculated nutritional strategy. Royal Canin® Canine Glycobalance for Small Dogs utilises a specific blend of cereals with a low glycaemic index and selected fibres to significantly reduce the rise in blood glucose after eating. This stability is crucial for long-term health, helping to mitigate the systemic stress that poorly managed diabetes can place on a small dog's vital organs. By focusing on low-starch content, this formula ensures your pet stays satisfied without the caloric overload that often leads to unhealthy weight gain.

Small dogs have unique dental and urinary needs, which is why this variant includes specialised nutrients to support oral hygiene and the S/O Index. This index promotes a urinary environment unfavourable to the development of struvite and calcium oxalate crystals. High protein levels help maintain lean muscle mass, which is essential for metabolic health, while enriched antioxidants support cellular vitality. With Royal Canin Glycobalance, you are providing a comprehensive therapeutic tool that simplifies glucose management while prioritising your small dog’s overall quality of life.

How To Use

  • Veterinary Supervision: Only use this product under the direct recommendation and monitoring of your veterinarian.

  • Gradual Transition: Mix with current food over 7 to 10 days to prevent digestive upset.
