Lactation
Growing puppies
Pancreatitis
Hyperlipidemia
The food should be administered upon the appearance of signs of heart disease. Dietary management should then continue for the dog's entire life.
Vascular protection
Polyphenols contribute to vasodilation and help neutralize free radicals.
Early kidney protection
Cardiac food has a moderate phosphorus content, taking into account the associated risk of chronic kidney dysfunction.
Electrolyte balance
Sodium restriction reduces cardiac workload. Potassium and magnesium levels are adapted to optimal clinical levels.
High levels of taurine and L-carnitine
Taurine and L-carnitine are essential for myocyte function and also strengthen heart contractions.
Dogs with heart disease often show reduced appetite and weight loss. Due to its very good taste and high concentration of protein and energy, Cardiac Canine is adapted for support and optimal body weight.
