4Vets Natural Hepatic Wet Veterinary Dog Food for Dogs with Liver Conditions, 185 g

4vets Hepatic Veterinary Diet is a complete, specialized food for dogs suffering from liver failure and other liver conditions.A limited supply of high-quality protein has a beneficial effect on liver function and hepatocyte regeneration and prevents muscle wasting.Highly digestible carbohydrates in the diet are a non-protein source of energy, and their metabolism does not result in the formation of toxic protein breakdown products.

The primary dietary management for both acute and chronic liver failure is a easily digestible, low-fat diet.The diet should include an adequate amount of protein with a high digestibility coefficient.Ensuring an adequate intake of nutrients will help maintain the body's optimal nutritional status.It is also important to increase the frequency of meals, but in smaller portions.Because of the natural tendency for copper to accumulate in a metabolically impaired liver, a liver diet should be deficient in this element.

It is recommended that you consult a veterinarian before use or before extending the duration of use.The diet should initially be followed for up to 6 months. Dogs should have constant access to fresh drinking water.

High-quality protein – easily digestible food based on wholesome sources of animal protein.A high digestibility rate ensures that the body receives adequate nutrition.This high-nutritional-value protein supports the regeneration of hepatocytes and enhances their function, thereby contributing to the removal of m.in.ammonia and other harmful metabolites.

Low fat content – fat content limited to the minimum necessary to ensure the body’s proper energy supply, but without increasing the production of bile and bile acids.The amount and ratio of polyunsaturated fatty acids from the omega-3 and omega-6 families determine the proper biochemical regulation of inflammatory processes.

Artichoke – contains m.in.cynarin and inulin, which improve digestive system function and stimulate metabolic processes.Cynarin, an organic acid, has cholagogue and choleretic properties, which help facilitate the digestion of food.In addition, it has a protective effect on liver cells.

Milk thistle – contains silymarin, which has a beneficial effect on the liver—it detoxifies it, stabilizes it, and seals the membranes of hepatocytes.In addition, it supports the self-regeneration of liver cells.

Chicory inulin – as a natural prebiotic, it helps stabilize the gut microbiota and supports healthy digestion and nutrient absorption.

Dried brewer's yeast (a source of prebiotics: mannan oligosaccharides and β-glucans) – have a beneficial effect on the gut microbiota.Yeast also has high biological value due to its high content of B vitamins.The use of yeast in the diets of young dogs is particularly important because it stimulates a wide range of immune responses.

Mojave Yucca – this ingredient stimulates digestive functions and the absorption of nutrients from the gastrointestinal tract, and regulates its peristalsis.When added to the diet, it helps reduce the production of intestinal gas and the intensity of the odor of feces.In addition, the saponins in the Mojave yucca exhibit antibacterial activity that suppresses protozoal infections in the intestines, and the polyphenols have anti-inflammatory effects.
