CA 2360495

A composition and process are provided for controlling postprandial glycemic and/or insulinemic response in companion animals such as dogs. The pet food composition includes a source of protein, a source of fat, and a source of carbohydrates from a grain source which excludes rice. Use of the preferred carbohydrate sources including a blend of corn and sorghum; a blend of corn, sorghum, and barley; a blend of corn, sorghum, and oats; and a blend of oats and barley tends to modulate the animal's glycemic and insulinemic responses after a meal. This effect is even more marked when the composition is fed to geriatric companion animals such as dogs.

La présente invention concerne une composition et un procédé de régulation de la réponse glycémique postprandiale et/ou insulinémique chez des animaux domestiques, tels que les chiens. La composition des aliments pour animaux domestiques comprend une source de protéine, une source de graisse, et une source de glucides provenant de céréales autres que le riz. L'utilisation des sources de glucides préférées comprenant un mélange de maïs et de sorgho; un mélange de maïs, de sorgho, et d'orge; un mélange de maïs, de sorgho, et d'avoine; et un mélange d'avoine et d'orge, tend à moduler les réponses glycémique et insulinémique de l'animal après un repas. Cet effet est encore plus marqué lorsque la composition est administré à des animaux domestiques âgés, comme les chiens par exemple.
