- Hepatic encephalopathy.
- Liver damage.
- Piroplasmosis.
- Jaundice.

Advantages of the product:
- Reduced copper levels with an increased amount of zinc reduces the accumulation of copper in hepatocytes and damage to the intercellular essence caused by cholestasis.
- A complex of cooperating antioxidants slows down the degeneration of hepatocytes.
- Limited levels of sodium reduce portal hypertension and fluid leakage outside the blood vessels.
- High level of energy obtained from fat, prevents excessive catabolism of proteins, which reduces the risk of development or worsening of hepatic encephalopathy.

Duration of therapy
The duration of therapy depends on the pathology of the disease and the regenerative capacity of the liver tissue. In the case of chronic diseases, dietotherapy can be used until the end of the animal's life. To avoid a heavy load of the liver after a meal, it is recommended to divide the daily dose into several smaller meals.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Highly digestible vegetable protein (soy protein isolate) is better tolerated by dogs with hepatic encephalopathy. L-carnitine improves the catabolism of lipids in the liver and helps cover the high demand of the liver for energy.
