Renal Early Stage
Renal - Early Stage is designed to address the nutritional needs of your dog once kidney problems have been identified by your veterinarian. It provides optimum protein levels to help maintain body condition, muscular mass, and immune and organ function. There are special ingredients to minimize wastes building up in the bloodstream. It has reduced phosphorus levels to help slow the progression of renal damage.
How can the Renal Management System help? Nutrition plays a critical role in managing the clinical signs and progression of kidney problems. Iams Veterinary Formula Renal -Early Stage Canine nutritionally manage progression with:
- patented Nitrogen Trap Fiber System, which diverts the waste products of protein metabolism from the bloodstream into the colon, thereby reducing the workload on the failing kidneys.
- omega-6:omega-3 fatty acid ratio targeting 5:1, which helps reduce intrarenal blood pressure, helps minimize inflammation, and helps slow progression.
- potassium citrate to counter the effects of metabolic acidosis, which occurs when the kidneys lose ability to filter waste products from the bloodstream.
- reduced phosphorous content compared with that in many maintenance diets.
