Vet Expert Renal Elimination diet was created for dogs with renal failure with concomitant food intolerance. The diet is distinguished by a monoprotein and gluten-free recipe, which means that the sole source of animal protein is rabbit, and the sole source of carbohydrates is brown and white rice.
Renal Elimination is characterized by a controlled level of protein and phosphorus, and the introduction of cranberry is aimed at additional protection of the lower urinary tract. Flaxseed added to the formula is a rich source of Omega-3 acids, which have antioxidant properties - which is especially important in the case of chronic kidney failure.
Why RENAL ELIMINATION?
- Two-way action – support in case of renal failure with concomitant food intolerance
- Monoprotein diet - rabbit
- Gluten-free diet – brown and white rice only
- Diet enriched with Omega-3 acids
- The addition of cranberries reduces the risk of secondary bacterial infections
Monoprotein | A single source of protein - rabbit - helps to avoid the presence of other animal protein allergens in the diet that might cause symptoms in dogs. |
Gluten-free | The recipe doesn't contain gluten. Single source of carbohydrates is rice; which supports digestion process and reduces the risk of gluten intolerance. |
Low phosphorus | Reduced level of phosphorus in the dietary food reduces the risk of developing secondary nutritional hyperparathyroidism. |
Linseed | A very good source of Omega-3 fatty acids, necessary for the proper functioning of the body. Omega-3 fatty acids (mainly alpha-linolenic acid-ALA) and lignans show antioxidant properties, supporting kidney function in case of chronic failure. Additionally, the soluble and insoluble fiber regulates the digestive tract and stabilizes post-meal glycemia and blood cholesterol levels. |
Cranberry | Reduces the adherence of microorganisms to the epithelium of the urinary tract, reducing the risk of secondary bacterial infections. |
Beet pulp | Beet pulp is a source of soluble and insoluble fiber that has the ability to bind water, causing an increase in the volume of food content. It stimulates and regulates the motor activity of the intestines and binds water-soluble toxins and thus facilitates their elimination. In addition, it supports the development and restoration of the proper microflora of the gastrointestinal tract. |

Nutritional recommendations: The diet covers the adult dog's nutrient needs. The daily starting doses are given in the table below. Daily doses should be divided into two or more meals. In case of higher demand of the dog, the daily ration should be increased accordingly. The introduction of a new diet should take place gradually by mixing it with the one previously used for a period of about 2 weeks. The introduction of the diet and the extension of the time of its administration should take place in consultation with a veterinarian. With chronic renal failure, the initial duration of the diet should not exceed 6 months. In the case of intolerance to ingredients and nutrients, the duration of the diet should be from 3 to 8 weeks, and if the symptoms of intolerance disappear, then initially a diet should be used for up to one year. The dog should have constant access to fresh, clean water.
