INDICATIONS

Science Plan Canine Light Adult is formulated for adult dogs requiring
fewer calories, e.g. that are less active, neutered or otherwise prone
to obesity. Providing a nutritionally-balanced food with reduced energy
density helps control body weight, and replacing digestible calories with
indigestible fibre increases bulk and helps to avoid hunger. L-carnitine
supplementation (dry) ensures adequate levels to help limit fat deposition
and maintain lean body mass.

Science Plan Canine Light Adult (dry) also contains a Superior Antioxidant
Formula to reduce oxidative cell damage.

NOT RECOMMENDED FOR
1. Cats.
2. Pregnant and lactating bitches. During pregnancy and in lactation
bitches should be switched to to Science Plan* Puppy or Science Plan*
Puppy Mini.
