HILLS FELINE M/D DRY FOOD

Prescription Diet Feline m/d is an alternative diet for weight loss in cats, and is low in carbohydrate, high in protein. Also with the highest levels of L-Carnitine, Hills Prescription Diet Feline m/d works with the cat`s unique metabolism to reduce body fat and increase muscle mass without excess stool. Added fiber helps to increase satiety.

• Along with an increased risk of serious health problems, such as heart disease, arthritis and liver disease, obese cats are four times more likely to develop diabetes mellitus

• Traditional calorie restriction works effectively for many cats; however, like humans, some cats respond better to a metabolic approach for weight loss

• Caloric approach: The conventional approach to weight loss relies on reducing the fat and calorie intake whilst increasing fibre levels to help the cat feel full.

• Metabolic approach: An alternative approach is based on significantly restricting carbohydrate levels to achieve weight loss, by switching metabolism to the utilisation of stored fat as the main source of energy.
