For dogs with Chronic kidney disease (CKD). EPA DHA. Formulated to support renal function in dogs with chronic kidney disease. Contains EPA and DHA, a complex of antioxidants and a low phosphorus level. Renal workload. Inadequate renal workload may induce ureamic crisis. An adapted content of high quality protein helps reduce renal workload. Metabolic equilibrium. Chronic kidney disease can lead to metabolic acidosis. Formulated with alkalinizing agents. Appetite preference. A specific aromatic profile allows for differences in individual preference, because dogs with CKD are more likely to develop inappetance or food aversion. INGREDIENTS High in protein DIRECTIONS Serve this specialized diet to adult dogs with chronic kidney disease as directed by a veterinarian. When the kidneys' excretion capacity is reduced, a high protein intake can lead to a uremic crisis (excess nitrogenous waste). An adequate intake of high-quality protein covers the animal's needs, relieves the kidneys and limits uremic symptoms. The kidneys are essential for maintaining the acid-base balance (hydrogen excretion and reabsorption of bicarbonate ions). Food formulated with alkalizing agents to limit metabolic acidosis due to deterioration of renal function. Appetite disorders (food aversion, anorexia, hyporexia) are common in CKD. Aromatic profile studied to stimulate the appetite by meeting the individual preferences of cats. Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Renal Special is formulated to support renal function in CKD: reduced phosphorus levels, intake of antioxidants, EPA and DHA. In CKD, it is essential to reduce the amount of phosphorus ingested because it is no longer properly eliminated by the kidneys and contributes to worsening the disease. EPA and DHA (fish oil) improve glomerular filtration rate. Kibble specially designed for the management of chronic kidney disease (CKD) in dogs. For dogs with Chronic kidney disease (CKD). EPA DHA.

INGRÉDIENTS Riche en protéines MODE D'EMPLOI Servez ce régime spécialisé aux chiens adultes atteints d'insuffisance rénale chronique selon les directives d'un vétérinaire. Lorsque les capacités d'excrétion des reins sont réduites, un apport élevé de protéines peut entraîner une crise urémique (excès de déchets azotés). Un apport adapté en protéines de haute qualité couvre les besoins de l'animal, soulage les reins et limite les symptômes urémiques. Les reins sont indispensables au maintien de l'équilibre acido-basique (excrétion d'hydrogène et réabsorption des ions bicarbonates). Aliment formulé avec des agents alcalinisant pour limiter l'acidose métabolique due à la détérioration de la fonction rénale. Les troubles de l'appétit (aversion alimentaire, anorexie, hyporexie) sont fréquents lors de MRC. Profil aromatique étudié pour stimuler l'appétit en répondant aux préférences individuelles des chats. Le Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Rénal Spécial est formulé pour soutenir la fonction rénale lors de MRC: taux de phosphore réduit, apport d'antioxydants, d'EPA et de DHA. Lors de MRC, il est essentiel de réduire le phosphore ingéré car il n'est plus éliminé correctement par les reins et contribue à aggraver la maladie. L'EPA et le DHA (huile de poisson améliorent le débit de filtration glomérulaire. Croquettes spécialement destinées à la gestion de la maladie rénale chronique (MRC) chez le chien.
