Description
With an especially high biological value and balanced nutrients, our menus from the LOW PROTEIN line contain limited protein and a moderate amount of fats, while being high in dietary fibre.
Copper, phosphorus, and sodium are reduced. To ensure that your dog gets enough calories, these menus contain non-protein sources of energy: rapeseed oil, potatoes, and coconut flour, a true superfood. These menus are deliberately free of fruit and vegetables high in copper, and are instead supplemented with three medicinal herbs: birch leaves, stinging nettle, and dandelion. These herbs are known for their positive effect on the liver and kidneys. This diet also contains pumpkin, which is said to support kidney function. Furthermore, it is grain-free, because grain components are hard for dogs to digest, meaning the process is more complex and costs them energy, which in turn can lead to the creation of toxins that put additional strain on the kidneys and liver.
The kidneys are not only among the organism’s most active organs, but also among the ones with the highest blood supply. The carry out vitally important tasks in the body and keep its metabolism in equilibrium. They have an excretory (secretion-forming), regulatory (balance-maintaining), and endocrine (hormone-producing) function. General infections, inflammatory processes in the body, poisoning, trauma, or ageing can cause the kidneys to gradually lose function. Diet is also an essential cornerstone of kidney health: Excessive amounts of grain, phosphorus, and synthetic components in food can trigger and intensify kidney diseases, because breaking down these ingredients means supplying the organism with many substances that must be processed by the kidneys. In other words, these substances must all be filtered and excreted by the kidneys, which can permanently overburden the organ. As a result, the kidneys become more susceptible to insufficiency and disease. The same applies to the liver, which – as the body’s “central organ for detoxification and storage” – is not only able to store vital vitamins and minerals, but is also responsible for breaking down and converting many metabolic products and excreting toxins. When a diet includes a high number of substances that the liver must process, the organ must increase its activity accordingly, which can lead to overexertion and disease.
