Complete dietary food for adult dogs with cardiovascular diseases: clinical nutrition with reduced sodium content, enriched with taurine, L-carnitine, EPA/DHA, and polyphenols to support myocardial contractility and vascular perfusion.

In dogs with heart disease—whether degenerative valvular diseases (common in small and medium breeds) or dilated cardiomyopathy (more common in large breeds)—the heart progressively loses its ability to pump blood efficiently.

This condition triggers neurohormonal compensatory mechanisms that lead to sodium and water retention, increased blood pressure, myocardial fatigue, and, over time, cardiac cachexia with rapid loss of lean body mass.

Royal Canin Cardiac Adult provides a meticulously balanced nutritional profile to reduce the hemodynamic load on the circulatory system. The formula features a strict reduction in sodium content, a key element in counteracting volume overload, pulmonary edema, and ascites without compromising the palatability of the diet.

Specific supplementation with taurine and L-carnitine provides direct energy support to cardiomyocytes, promoting more vigorous cardiac contraction and optimizing lipid metabolism in muscle tissue.

Long-chain omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA) have proven antiarrhythmic, anti-inflammatory, and vasodilatory effects, actively counteracting the inflammatory mediators responsible for cardiac muscle wasting.

The combination of polyphenols extracted from green tea supports the elasticity of the vascular endothelium, while a carefully balanced ratio of potassium to magnesium prevents electrolyte imbalances caused by frequent drug therapies involving diuretics or ACE inhibitors.

Descrizione

Royal Canin Cardiac Adult is a complete dietary food for adult dogs formulated to support heart function in cases of chronic heart failure or hypertension.

Featuring a controlled sodium content to reduce the workload on the heart and limit fluid retention, it provides a high concentration of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA and DHA), taurine, and L-carnitine—essential nutrients that support myocardial contractility. The formula includes antioxidant polyphenols to combat free radicals and support vascular hemodynamics.

Complete dietary food for adult dogs with chronic heart failure or hypertension

Ingredients: Rice, dehydrated poultry protein, corn meal, animal fats, corn gluten, egg powder, hydrolyzed animal protein, beet pulp, minerals, fish oil, vegetable fiber, soybean oil, yeast products, fructo-oligosaccharides, tea extract (source of polyphenols), marigold flower extract (source of lutein).

Nutritional additives (per kg): Vitamin A: 18,500 IU, Vitamin D3: 1,200 IU, Iron (3b103): 43 mg, Iodine (3b201, 3b202): 4.3 mg, Copper (3b405, 3b406): 13 mg, Manganese (3b502, 3b504): 56 mg, Zinc (3b603, 3b605, 3b606): 137 mg, Selenium (3b801, 3b811, 3b812): 0.08 mg - Taurine: 3.4 g - L-carnitine: 830 mg - Technological additives: Clinoptilolite of sedimentary origin: 5 g - Organoleptic additives: Tea extract (source of polyphenols): 1,250 mg - Preservatives - Antioxidants.

Analytical Constituents: Crude protein: 26.0% | Crude oils and fats: 20.0% | Crude ash: 4.9% | Crude fiber: 1.7% | Sodium: 0.15% | Potassium: 0.8% | Magnesium: 0.15% | Omega-3 fatty acids: 0.78% | EPA/DHA: 0.38%.

Feeding Guidelines and Usage Notes: Initially use for up to 6 months in cases of chronic heart failure. It is recommended to consult a veterinarian before use or before extending the duration of use. Administer according to the amounts indicated in the table on the back of the package, adjusting them to the dog’s body condition. Since dogs with heart disease often have a poor appetite, divide the daily ration into two or more meals to make it easier for them to eat. Always provide the animal with plenty of fresh, clean water.

Benefits:

Integrated cardiac support: Specific supplementation with taurine and L-carnitine to support myocardial contractility and energy metabolism.

EPA and DHA fatty acids: High levels of omega-3 to promote peripheral vasodilation and counteract the loss of lean body mass (cardiac cachexia).

Sodium control: Reduced sodium content to alleviate cardiac preload and afterload and limit water and salt retention.

Vascular protection and antioxidants: Green tea polyphenols to support blood vessel elasticity and protect against oxidative stress.

Adjusted electrolyte balance: Targeted levels of potassium and magnesium to compensate for the electrolyte fluctuations typical of cardiac treatment protocols.

FAQ - Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Cardiac Adult Dog Food

  • Is it a complete or complementary food? It is a 100% complete dry dietetic food, designed to permanently replace the daily diet of dogs with heart disease.
  • Does it replace heart medications prescribed by a veterinarian? No. Royal Canin Cardiac works in synergy with drug therapy (such as diuretics, ACE inhibitors, or positive inotropes), optimizing electrolyte balance and providing myocardial nutrients that standard commercial foods do not contain in therapeutic doses.
  • Why is the sodium content reduced but not eliminated? Excessive and sudden sodium restriction can prematurely activate the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system; the sodium content is therefore calibrated to reduce fluid retention without triggering harmful compensatory responses.
  • Can it be combined with wet food? Yes, combining it with Royal Canin Cardiac Wet cans is available and recommended, as it helps vary the flavor and facilitates the intake of cardiac medications in powder or tablet form.
  • What is the key benefit? Specific support for myocardial contractility and blood vessel health thanks to taurine, L-carnitine, high levels of omega-3 (EPA/DHA), and reduced sodium.
