The kidneys filter waste and toxins from the blood and maintain the normal balance of fluid and minerals within the body. As pets age, damage to kidney tissues may occur. This process is irreversible and leads to loss of kidney function. Cats with decreased kidney function may experience loss of appetite and their food intake might decline, which may lead to loss of muscle mass. Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians developed Prescription DietĀ® k/dĀ® clinical nutrition to support your cat's kidney function and help sustain muscle mass. In fact, the nutrition of k/d is clinically tested nutrition to improve & lengthen quality of life. How it works: *Controlled phosphorus & low sodium *High level of essential amino acids - the building blocks of muscle protein *Therapeutic levels of L-Carnitine and Omega-3 fatty acids How it helps: *Protects vital kidney & heart function *Supports your cat's natural ability to build lean muscle daily *S+OXSHIELDTM: Formulated to promote a urinary environment that reduces the risk of developing struvite & calcium oxalate crystals Additional info: Hill'sĀ® Prescription DietĀ® k/dĀ® Feline is a complete and balanced food that provides all the nutrition your cat needs.
