How It Works
The Medicus Canine Sensitive Stomach Diet is meticulously crafted to address these key nutritional needs:
Nourishes the Body With Clean Wholesome Protein
High-quality animal-based protein, including grass-fed beef and eggs
Provides Highly Digestible Nourishment from Rice While Not Challenging the Gut
Nourishes the Microbiome
Prebiotic and a fiber source, chicory root will feed probiotics and encourage the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut.
Bacillus sp. is a spore-forming probiotic – beneficial bacteria that help balance the gut microbiome. SBO or soil-based probiotics are better at surviving a dog’s stomach acid to actually reach the gut biome.
Soothes the Gut Lining
Herbs like ginger, cinnamon, and aloe are gut-soothing herbs.
High Levels of Healthy Whole Food Fiber Sources
Flax, pumpkin, psyllium, chicory root, and bananas firm and bulk up stool to help regularity.
Proof in the Numbers
The Medicus Sensitive Stomach Diet meets all the nutrient requirements needed to support a dog with chronic GI issues with numbers comparable to, if not better, than leading diets within the industry.

Clean and lean, grass-fed beef is incredibly digestible, which is crucial for the reactive and inflamed gi tract. Grass-fed beef also has as much as 5 times the amount of omega-3s as grain-fed beef, which can be used to fight inflammation.
Beef Liver
Organs like the liver are some of the most nutritious parts of an animal. Liver contains 10 to 100 times the nutrients found in a serving of muscle meat.
Eggs
Eggs are complete proteins and highly digestible. Packed with essential amino acids that are readily available to be used for maintenance & metabolism.
Rice
Veterinarians around the globe utilize rice for gi issues due to its digestibility. Rice is low in fat and fiber, which is not challenging for the inflamed and reactive gut.
Sweet Potato
Filled with vitamins A, B6, and C, sweet potatoes are also fiber-rich, encouraging regular, healthy bowel movements.
Flaxseed
A healthy source of fiber to encourage regular gi mobility. Plus, flax is full of polyphenols, an antioxidant that defends against oxidative stress to decrease inflammation.
Banana
High in potassium, fiber, and magnesium and rich in carotenoids with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Bananas also have a mucousy consistency able to lubricate and soothe the gut lining.
Blueberries
A well-known prebiotic and fiber-rich, just a cup of blueberries fulfills 14% of daily fiber intake. Plus, with the highest amount of antioxidants among any fruit, blueberries help counteract oxidative stress to decrease inflammation.
The Medicus Canine Sensitive Stomach Diet is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for adult maintenance.
