Weight Loss
Metabolic is clinically proven nutrition that naturally works with each dog’s unique metabolic response activating the body’s natural ability to burn excess fat and affect calorie usage.
The unique fibre blend helps control hunger and reduces begging, food stealing and overeating behaviour. This makes it easy to achieve weight loss success and keep your pet on track with their diet plan.

The ingredients are also carefully selected to prevent the development of kidney calcium oxalate stones and struvite crystals. This preventative maintenance food also features a highly digestible fiber blend to help keep your dog feeling full and satisfied between meals. This high-quality kibble also includes the antioxidants your dog needs for good health. The recipe is free from corn, wheat and soy to support your dog’s sensitive tummy.
Digestive Care
Digestive care is a top priority for dogs, as it can affect their mobility and general health. It can also cause gastrointestinal disorders and make it difficult for them to enjoy the normal activities of life.
Fortunately, there are a number of specially formulated dog foods that prioritize digestive care. These foods are made to help dogs maintain a healthy weight and improve their quality of life.
For example, Hill’s nutritionists and veterinarians developed Prescription Diet Metabolic clinical nutrition specifically formulated to support your dog’s weight management. This food naturally works with their unique energy use to easily and effectively lose weight and help keep it off.
Metabolic dog food is specially formulated with the right combination of dietary fiber, nutrients and antioxidants to promote weight loss and support your dog’s digestive system. This diet helps regulate appetite and improves your dog’s energy metabolism to help them feel full and satisfied between meals.
Immune System
Your dog’s immune system works to protect your dog from harmful bacteria and other invaders. This process is regulated by the immune system’s innate and adaptive sections, which work together to produce antibodies and respond to the presence of pathogens.
The innate immune system relies on a memory component that allows the body to remember the presence of pathogens and respond quickly to any future exposure. This is why a diet that boosts your pet’s immune system can help them ward off diseases and infections, so they stay healthy.
A diet that is formulated with the right ingredients can help your pet’s immune system by fighting off free radicals and oxidative stress. These are harmful molecules that can damage cells and DNA if left unchecked.
Your dog’s immune system also depends on vitamins and minerals that are important for a variety of metabolic and immune functions, including energy metabolism, skin and coat quality, growth and development, reproductive performance, joint and bone integrity, and overall health and well-being. Vitamin E, for example, is a key tool your pet’s body uses to combat free radicals.
Joint Health
Joint health is one of the main benefits of metabolic dog food. This dry food formula is specially formulated by nutritionists and veterinarians to help your dog manage their weight and joint health.
Its clinically proven nutrition helps improve mobility in as little as 12 days and reduce weight by 13% within 60 days. This is because it contains natural fiber from vegetables and fruits that improve metabolism.
The diet also has a complete protein balance consisting of lean meat plus animal and plant proteins that your dog needs for healthy joints and bones.
The nutrients in the food include omega-3 fatty acids, glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate, L-carnitine, and added vitamins and minerals. These ingredients help support healthy joints and cartilage, while reducing inflammation in the body.
