Description:
K-9 SLIM DOWN PLUS contains the clinically and scientifically
proven carb blocker Phase 2 pet® to safely and naturally promote weight loss by
cutting starch
absorption up to 75%. In a published veterinary-conducted canine
trial, 15 dogs showed an average weight loss of almost 5% of their body weight
over an 8
week period and an average abdominal girth reduction of 1.44
inches per dog due solely to use of Phase 2 pet starch blocker. By blocking
starch carbohydrates
as a source of energy, the dogs were forced to burn body fat for
energy. The weight loss seen in this study was attributed to loss of fat and not
loss of muscle.
This special product also contains EGCG from Green Tea extract
that helps support weight loss and weight management. It helps to control
appetite, boost
metabolism, inhibit carbohydrate absorption, maintain normal
blood insulin levels (which promotes the burning of fat) and supports
cardiovascular health.
ChromeMate® brand Chromium Polynicotinate is a niacin-bound
chromium, which research shows is a safe and bioavailable form of chromium
supplementation
that supports proper blood glucose levels, appetite control,
building of muscle and the burning of fat.
Obesity can contribute to many undesirable health states like
diabetes, joint discomfort, orthopedic problems, heart disease and liver
problems. This product
is recommended to support weight loss in overweight and obese
dogs, especially those with joint discomfort, dogs eating commercial foods with
starch or
carbohydrate additives and for those dogs fed table scraps. K-9
SLIM DOWN PLUS is a great companion product to any of our Hip & Joint products
for
joint support in overweight dogs.
