Metabolic Weight Management

  • Contains 5 key ingredients which activate the genes responsible for breaking down body fat and which increase the animal's capacity to burn its fats (coconut oil, flax seeds, tomatoes, carrots and L-Carnitine);
  • All the ingredients work together to regulate appetite, reduce gastrointestinal inflammation and improve energy metabolism;
  • Contains a high content of Lysine which helps metabolize fats to produce energy and maintain lean body mass;
  • Has a high content of a unique blend of fibres from fruits and vegetables that trigger satiety, control appetite and maintain gastrointestinal health;
  • The canned formula is more effective than the dry formula because the water intake promotes feelings of satiety and the prescribed amounts of canned food are easier for owners to respect than the amounts of dry food.
