The Natural Approach - Diet and Herbs

What is Renal disease? Renal Disease affects an unusually large number of dogs. Renal damage is irreversible; dogs lose structure and function in affected nephrons (kidney cells). Renal damage is progressive, so if untreated, normal nephrons are destroyed. Dietary management is geared toward preserving normal nephrons.
Feeding affected dogs a controlled diet usually preserves remaining nephrons function. Diets must have proper amounts of calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium. Concentrations of certain vitamins must not exceed requirements. Dietary protein is sometimes reduced to a minimum. Feeding 3 small meals per day is recommended.
Please note each diet is designed to meet varying requirement of sodium, potassium, calcium and phosphorus. At the end of each recipe, directions are given for restoring normal phosphorus levels.

Diet is extremely important in treating renal failure. The goal of the diet is to feed very high quality foods (high biological value) that are easy to digest - also feed smaller meals (very important) as this takes a great stress off the kidneys. In essence, through the diet, you will take over much of your dog's kidney functions. This will help to preserve the remaining functions.
