Nutrients vs Ingredients
Where Other Diets Fall Short
Other industry diets meet the nutrient profiles needed to address a disease state but do so using poor-quality ingredients like meat meals, corn, and a lengthy list of synthetic nutrients.
We know that when an animal is sick, nutrition matters most and that you can provide a therapeutic metabolic diet with whole foods.
Proof in the Numbers
The Medicus Metabolic Health Diet meets all the nutrient requirements needed to support metabolic issues in cats with numbers comparable to, if not better, than leading diets within the industry.

How It Works

High-quality, animal-based protein
High percentage of animal-based protein ingredients- salmon, chicken, eggs, sardines & chicken liver
Healthy fat ratio- omega 6: omega 3 ratio 0.99:1
Limits the Percentage of Carbohydrates

Energy produced from gluconeogenesis – protein/amino acids
You can’t compromise on using clean, wholesome foods like organic produce and pasture-raised meats. Feeding high protein/low glycemic index carbohydrate diets can promote & maintain weight loss, control obesity, and curb their preventable related diseases.
