Feeding Advice
Varies depending on the pathology and on the regenerative ability of the hepatic tissue. Lifetime feeding may be necessary in case of chronic disease. In order to reduce the postprandial hepatic load, it is recommended to feed several small meals up to the recommended daily intake. It is recommended that a veterinarian’s opinion be sought before use or before extending the period of use.
LOW COPPER
A low level of copper and increased zinc content helps reduce the accumulation of copper in liver cells.
ELECTROLYTE BALANCE
Reduced sodium content helps reduce high blood pressure in the portal vein, which helps prevent the accumulation of fluid in the abdomen.
Nutritional support plays a key role in management of liver failure by:
- Reducing the metabolic workload,
- Limiting calorie intake from protein,
- Providing antioxidants to neutralise damaging free radicals,
- Limiting progression of inflammation and fibrosis,
- Providing essential nutrients for hepatocyte regeneration
