Important Product Update - Royal Canin Diabetic is now Royal Canin Glycobalance
From May 2026, the Royal Canin Diabetic canine diet has been replaced by the new Royal Canin Glycobalance diet. Glycobalance delivers the same key benefits as the Diabetic range - glucomodulation, low starch and high protein - with an optimised formula now also featuring a lower starch level in the wet diet and algal oil as a sustainable alternative to fish oil. If you have any questions about this transition, speak to your veterinarian or contact Royal Canin directly at consumercare.anz@royalcanin.com.
Royal Canin Glycobalance Wet Dog Food 410g Cans Box of 12
Veterinary wet diet formulated to help manage blood glucose levels in adult dogs with diabetes - now replacing Royal Canin Diabetic.
Royal Canin Glycobalance is a complete veterinary diet specifically developed to support the nutritional management of diabetes mellitus in adult dogs. Diabetes mellitus is a condition where the body's ability to produce or use insulin is reduced. Insulin works to move glucose from food into the cells of the body to provide energy. Without adequate insulin action, glucose remains in the bloodstream at elevated levels rather than being used by the cells.
In dogs, type I diabetes is most common - a condition where insulin production has been reduced or stopped due to pancreatic disease. This form of diabetes is typically irreversible and requires lifelong management combining insulin therapy, dietary management, weight control and appropriate veterinary care. The Glycobalance wet diet is formulated to support this management through nutrition, with a low starch formula specifically designed to help slow the rise in blood glucose after eating.
The wet formula has been further improved in the Glycobalance range with an even lower starch level than the previous Diabetic wet diet, as well as the introduction of algal oil as a sustainable alternative source of EPA and DHA. Supplied in a convenient box of 12 x 410g cans.
As part of the Royal Canin Veterinary Range, this product should only be fed to your dog on the recommendation of a veterinary professional.
Key Benefits of Royal Canin Glycobalance
