Royal Canin’s latest roll out in the Veterinary Health Nutrition range, Weight Management, will be introduced this week at BVNA Congress ahead of the national launch on 1st November. Following the relaunch of the entire range of veterinary diets into one simplified range, Veterinary Health Nutrition, the Weight Management range offers tailored nutritional solutions to support healthy weight and the management of cats and dogs with diabetes mellitus.

Caroline Burke, Weight Management Specialist at Royal Canin, said: “Obesity is a growing problem and puts pets at risk of developing further conditions. Now recognised as a chronic incurable disease, we are passionate about tackling this problem with science. The Weight Management products are the gold standard in nutritional support for weight management.”

Royal Canin® Satiety Weight Management has a specific macronutrient profile which includes high levels of specific fibre to help keep pets fuller for longer. A new kibble shape has also been designed to increase chewing and meal duration by 57% with begging significantly decreasing in just 15 days. Royal Canin Diabetic is specially formulated to help with the management of glycaemia and the wet pouch now comes in a new size, moving from 100g to 85g, for better portion control. Both diets have been launched with a new premium pack design to ease navigation of the product.

Caroline continues: “We know studies show that obese cats and dogs may live shorter lives and can be more susceptible to skin diseases, diabetes mellitus, urinary disease and cardio-respiratory dysfunction. In addition to a reduced life expectancy, owners of obese pets spend more on average; from diagnostics to surgical procedures and medication. Our new Weight Management range will help veterinary professionals support owners in creating healthier habits and work towards better management of overweight pets.”
