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.

Dogs with:
✓ 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.
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.
