Medicus Skin Health Diets for dogs are therapeutic meals designed to provide the nutritional framework for the unique nutritional needs of a dog with skin inflammation. Made to support the skin barrier, this diet diminishes heat and inflammation expressed in the hyper-sensitized body. Formulated with high-quality proteins and essential nutrients, Medicus Skin Health Diet helps soothe and protect your dog’s skin while addressing key nutritional needs. 


Available in nugget or paté. Our paté version offers the same carefully formulated nutrition in a smooth, palatable texture that dogs love.

 

Who Would Benefit From This Diet?

Dogs with:

  • Allergic Dermatitis
  • Food Allergies
  • Atopy
  • Skin Sensitivities
  • Chronic Skin Conditions
  • Other Inflammatory Skin Conditions

 

 Diet Overview

  • High-quality novel proteins
  • High levels of Omega 3 fatty acids, with an Omega 6:3 ratio of 0.55:1
  • Essential GLA from evening primrose oil

 

How It Works 

✓ Nourishes The Body With Novel Foods                                        

-Novel proteins, including guinea fowl and grass-fed bison liver

Food sensitivities are a gradual progression, which is why novel ingredients work. Dogs can’t have a reaction to something they’ve never experienced.

✓ Decreases Inflammation In The Skin

-An ideal ratio of Omega 3 fatty acids repair, nourish, and strengthen the skin’s integrity. Omega 6: omega 3 ratio - 0.55:1

✓  Nourishes The Skin

-Evening Primrose Oil is rich in essential Omega 6 fatty acid, GLA                                   

GLA is vital for supporting the skin’s barrier function– this is how the skin protects itself from dehydration and stress.

 

Nutrients vs Ingredients: Where Other Diets Fall Short

Other industry diets meet the nutrient profiles needed to address a disease state but do so using poor-quality ingredients like meat meals, corn, and a lengthy list of synthetic nutrients.

We know that when an animal is sick, nutrition matters most, and that you can provide a therapeutic diet with whole foods.

The proof is in the numbers.
