| Once renal failure has been diagnosed, nutritional management can help greatly with improving and maintaining quality of life. For example, supplements that re-direct phosphorus excretion to the gut rather than the damaged urinary system prevent toxic phosphorus build-up. A renal diet can help by reducing the amount of protein break-down by-products the body needs to deal with. Don't forget to also keep your pet's fluid intake up by providing plenty of fresh water and considering a water fountain system. |
