THE BENEFITS
Vegetable protein
Highly digestable proteins (soy protein isolate) are better tolerated in dogs with hepatic encephalopathy
Low copper
A low copper with increased zinc content minimises both copper accumulation in the hepatocytes and intracellular lesions caused by cholestasis
Antioxidant complex
A patented synergistic complex of antioxidants to help neutralise free radicals.
High energy
High energy provided from fat avoids excessive protein catabolism, limiting the risk of onset or the progression of hepatic encephalopathy
*L.I.P.: protein selected for its very high assimilation.
