Indication

PRO-VET WEIGHT CONTROL has been specifically formulated to control the body condition of dogs with a tendency to develop overweight and to reduce the risks of cancer, diabetes mellitus and heart failure.

PRO-VET WEIGHT CONTROL has a low energy content to control body condition of adult dogs that have a tendency to develop overweight. An excessive body condition reduces life expectancy because of increased risks of cancer, diabetes mellitus and heart failure. The special composition of PRO-VET WEIGHT CONTROL reduces the risks of the diseases mentioned and makes it easier to control body weight. Body condition depends on food intake and to a lesser extent on physical activity. An ideal body condition elongates life span and reduces the risks of the major diseases. The amount of PRO-VET WEIGHT CONTROL to be fed to an individual cat should be so that ideal body condition is attained and maintained. To support weight reduction and to prevent weight gain, PRO-VET WEIGHT CONTROL has a low energy value.
