DESCRIPTION
Complete and balanced dietary food for dogs that supports liver function in cases of its chronic insufficiency and helps to reduce the deposition of copper in the liver. The diet includes moderate low levels of easily digestible protein, and low levels of copper. The recipe has been enriched with artichoke, which has hepatoprotective, choleretic and cholagogic effects, and with soya phospholipids, which support liver cells regeneration.
Dietetic indications: Support of liver function in the case of chronic liver insufficiency. Reduction of copper deposition in the liver.
LOW COPPER – limits the possibility of its absorption from the gastrointestinal tract and reduces the risk of hepatocytes damage.
HIGH ZINC – protects against excessive absorption and deposition of copper in the liver; supports the antioxidant mechanisms of cells, which are involved in protection against the damaging effects of free oxygen radicals.
ARTICHOKE – artichoke extracts have demonstrated significant liver-protecting and regenerating effects. They also have a choleretic effect, meaning they promote the flow of bile and fat to and from the liver.
PHOSPHOLIPIDS – main components of cell membranes, they support the regeneration processes of damaged hepatocytes.
BALANCE – quality of ingredients assure high level of digestibility and adequate level of energy.

INSTRUCTIONS
Each introduction and extension of the feeding period should take place in consultation with a veterinarian. Initial doses are shown in the table on the packaging. To maintain the dogs’ correct body weight, these doses can be modified according to dog needs and divided into two or more meals a day. The recommended feeding time, depending on the particular nutritional purpose: support of liver function in case of chronic liver disease – initially up to 4 months and reduction of copper in the liver – initially up to 6 months. The dog must have permanent access to fresh water.
