Hills Prescription Diet K/d + Mobility Chicken is formulated to support your dogs kidney health, joint function and cognitive alertness.
The kidneys perform a number of functions vital to your pets health. Most notably they filter waste products from the bloodstream and help to maintain the correct fluid and electrolyte balance to keep the body functioning properly. When greater than 65% of both kidneys is damaged, they are no longer able to perform these functions, resulting in kidney failure.
Signs of kidney failure can include:
Dietary therapy is the mainstay of treatment for kidney failure. Unfortunately chronic kidney failure is a progressive condition, so treatment is aimed at slowing its progression and reducing the symptoms. Increasing the water intake of pets with kidney failure is crucial to reduce the workload of the kidney and maintain its protective mechanisms. This can be done by ensuring that pets with kidney failure have free and unlimited access to fresh water, and also by offering wet food as part of the diet. Hills Prescription Diet K/d + Mobility protects the kidneys with controlled phosphorus levels, which has been clinically proven to prolong the survival times of cats and dogs with kidney failure and may also slow the deterioration of kidney function. Providing high levels of essential amino acids is also important to maintain muscle mass in animals with kidney disease, and a low sodium content helps to support cardiovascular health.
Hills Prescription K/d + Mobility is also formulated to improve joint function in pets with degenerative joint disease. Studies have shown that 80% of dogs greater than 8 years of age suffer from joint disease and benefit from targeted joint-support nutrients. The K/d + Mobility diet contains high levels of EPA, an omega 3 fatty acid from fish oil that helps to break the cycle of inflammation in arthritic joints. It also contains glucosamine and chondroitin to help protect the cartilage from further deterioration.
