Truth that your kibble bag Royal Canin afraid of you finding out

Cats are obligate carnivores: no salivary amylase and low pancreatic amylase.Translation? Cats are not built to process carbs. At all.

Yet most dry foods like Royal Canin and other vets recommended brands are packed with carbohydrates. Eating carbohydrates kills your cat slowly if you don't educate yourself and read more below.

When you feed your cats high-carb dry kibble like Royal Canin:

• The pancreas pumps insulin

• Blood sugar crashes

• Your cat feels hungry again

• Eats more

• Stores fat

• Still misses protein needs

That’s how a “healthy” cat slowly becomes obese, diabetic, inflamed, and sick.Quietly. Over time.

When a cat eats a high-carbohydrate dry food diet like Royal Canin every day, the pancreas is forced to release more insulin to process all that starch. This can cause blood sugar to drop again quickly, making the cat feel hungry more often and want to eat more food. Over time, this cycle leads to fat build-up, weight gain, and metabolic stress, while the cat is still not getting enough of the quality protein it actually needs. This is how a healthy cat can slowly develop obesity and illness when fed high-carb dry kibble like Royal Canin every day.

Surprisingly, the National Research Council and AAFCO don’t set any minimum or maximum limits for carbohydrates in cat food, because there is no scientific proof that cats need carbohydrates at all. Cats are obligate carnivores, which means carbs are not a required nutrient for them. Their bodies can make the glucose (the brain’s energy source) they need by breaking down fats and certain amino acids from animal protein, instead of getting it from starch or sugar. Cats get glycerol — which is used to make glucose — from digesting animal fats found in meat and other animal-based ingredients. They can also turn amino acids like methionine and cysteine into glucose, and these come naturally from foods like meat, poultry, fish, and eggs.

When you look at how a cat’s body works, it’s clear they are designed to eat meat, not plants. Unlike dogs and other omnivores, cats do not have amylase in their saliva, which is the enzyme that starts breaking down carbohydrates in the mouth. This enzyme exists because digesting carbohydrates takes long time, something cats were never meant to do. Instead, a cat’s body is geared toward processing animal protein, with the liver doing most of the work. Even in the pancreas, cats produce much lower levels of amylase compared to omnivores. Amylase’s job is to turn starches and sugars into energy, and the fact that cats make so little of it shows that carbohydrates are not a natural fuel source for them.

And let’s talk about the biggest missing ingredient in dry food: WATER.

Dry food is missing the most important nutrient a cat needs from its diet — water. Cats are built to get moisture from their food, not from drinking bowls, so when they eat dry kibble like Royal Canin over many years, their bodies often stay in a constant state of dehydration. This puts long-term stress on the kidneys. The difficult part is that the damage isn’t obvious at first — you won’t see what the lack of moisture in Royal Canin dry food is doing to your cat right now, because most cats don’t show symptoms of chronic kidney disease until more than 70% of their kidney function has already been lost. Once kidney failure develops, it cannot be reversed — it can only be managed, and many cats continue to decline over time because the organs are already permanently damaged. this is a no-cured disease this is a terminal condition, just waiting to die.Many common cat health problems — including diabetes, obesity, urinary tract issues, chronic kidney disease, and digestive disorders — are strongly linked to diets that are low in moisture, low in real meat protein, and high in carbohydrates, which is the case with many modern commercial dry foods like Royal Canin and similar brands.

Diabetes. Obesity. Urinary issues. IBS. Chronic kidney disease.These aren’t random.They’re linked to low moisture, low meat, high-carb diets that dominate the pet food industry.
