Available in dry and wet diet offerings, GLYCOADVANCED™ is formulated to support vitality, healthy blood glucose levels and a healthy body weight, which are factors that can positively impact the quality of life. Weight reduction with a veterinary diet is a key part of management for overweight diabetic cats, helping to improve blood sugar levels and their general health and wellbeing.1,2 Additionally, the brand's newly launched home care kits offer comprehensive nutritional solutions designed to support pets following diagnoses related to dermatology, gastrointestinal, and urinary conditions with a sampling of the diets for those conditions. These kits not only help ensure recommendation compliance but also effectively bridge the transition between diagnosis and subscription services. Additionally, they serve as an educational tool to empower pet owners with a deeper understanding of the critical benefits of nutrition compliance, enhancing pet health outcomes. VMX attendees can also visit the Royal Canin booth for an initial look at Royal Canin Veterinary Fresh Nutrition launching later in 2026, offering a variety of therapeutic offerings including those for gastrointestinal and dermatology conditions. Royal Canin's Veterinary Fresh Nutrition diets were created through pet first principles, delivering precise nutrition, formulated by board certified veterinary nutritionists and backed by world class science. The gently cooked format delivers nutritional solutions beyond current wet and dry formulas to meet the needs of more cats and dogs. &#34;VMX sets the tone for the year as we continue to support and empower veterinary professionals through the impact of therapeutic nutrition,&#34; said Dr. Todd East, director of veterinary affairs, Royal Canin North America. &#34;From our dietary offerings to our ongoing support of learning and development for veterinarians and veterinary technicians, 2026 will continue to be a year of innovation for Royal Canin and commitment to the veterinary industry.&#34;For more on Royal Canin's presence at VMX, visit https://my.royalcanin.com/events/vmx and stop by Booth 3317 to learn more about these new offerings.1.
