Dogalicious Kidney Care Therapeutic diet is a low protein, low phosphorus and low sodium diet designed specifically for dogs with chronic kidney disease (CKD)

The Dogalicious Renal Diet is specifically designed for dogs who have been diagnoses with chronic kidney disease and it is characterized by:

• Protein restriction and high-quality protein: Dogs with CKD benefit from protein restriction, but for this reason, it’s even more important that the protein fed to the dogs is high-quality and contains all the essential amino acids in balanced amounts. This formulation guarantees that with its calibrated content of pork, sardines, and eggs.
• Low phosphorus content: excessive dietary phosphorus can be detrimental to dogs with renal disease. In many pet food on the market, many product contain extra phosphorus that is added as an additive. This formulation is low in phosphorus, and all the phosphorus derives from the natural ingredients, since it does not contain any phosphorus additives.
• Low sodium content: the content of this mineral is kept low to reduce the workload on kidneys and helping maintaining the blood pressure at normal values.
• Omega-3 EPA and DHA: these fatty acids have protective anti-inflammatory effects towards the kidneys, and in this formulation are provided by the sardines content.
• Natural antioxidant, including vitamin C and vitamin E, due to the content of blueberries, broccoli and other veggies, as well as sunflower oil.
• A formulation designed to favor palatability, thanks to highly palatable ingredients such as pork, egg, sardines and butter, while at the same time guarantying a high-quality content of vegetables and fiber.

Additionally, Dogalicious renal diet is a fresh food, which is the best option for dogs with renal disease, since it is high in moisture compared with dry pet food and this helps keeping the kidneys hydrated – and the more hydrated they are, the less they need to work to concentrate the urine, and the more they can be preserved.
