Key Features and Benefits

• Low Phosphorus to Slow Disease Progression: Contains a reduced level of phosphorus (0.4%), as this mineral is known to contribute to the progression of kidney damage. Lowering phosphorus intake helps slow the advancement of chronic renal insufficiency .

• Restricted but High-Quality Protein: Formulated with restricted levels of high-quality protein (13%) to help minimize the formation of uremic toxins while still helping to maintain lean muscle mass .

• Omega-3 Fatty Acids for Renal Support: Enriched with Omega-3 fatty acids (0.4%, including EPA and DHA) to help minimize glomerular hypertension and support the body's natural anti-inflammatory processes within the kidneys .

• Helps Manage Metabolic Acidosis: The diet has non-acidifying properties that help minimize the metabolic acidosis often associated with renal failure .

• Urinary Stone Management: Formulated to help manage calcium oxalate urolithiasis (with low calcium and vitamin D3, promoting neutral urine pH) and to reduce the formation of urate stones (with low purine levels) and cystine stones (with moderate sulphur amino acids and urine-alkalizing properties) .

• Highly Palatable: Designed to be highly appetizing to help ensure compliance in inappetent or anorexic patients and for long-term use .

• Low Sodium: Contains restricted dietary sodium to help minimize the risk of hypertension .
