NUTRITIONAL PROFILE
Renal
• Nitrogen Trap Fibre System (beat pulp, FOS, Gum Arabic) – helps reduce nitrogenous waste – allowing for feeding moderate protein levels
•Moderate levels of high quality animal-based protein – help to preserve the glomerular filtration rate
•Targeted omega-6:omega-3 fatty acid ratio – increases GFR and manages inflammation at the cellular level
•Reduced phosphorus levels – soy protein isolate (reduced phosphorus) helps nutritionally manage hyperphosphataemia, to help slow progression of
renal disease
•Added potassium citrate – helps control metabolic acidosis
Liver
•Nitrogen Trap Fibre System (beat pulp, FOS, Gum Arabic) – to decrease ammonia accumulation, which can occur in liver disease (Hepatic
Encephalopathy)
•Moderate levels of high quality animal-based protein – a key component in enabling liver repair and maintaining liver function
•Targeted omega-6:omega-3 fatty acid ratio – helps manage inflammation at the cellular level
•Soy protein isolate – vegetable protein source – shown to less commonly lead to hepatic Encephalopathy
NUTRIENTS TO HELP MANAGE OVERALL HEALTH AND WELL-BEING
•Vitamin E – an antioxidant to help maintain a strong immune system
•Beet pulp – a moderately fermentable fibre that produces butyrate, a short chain fatty acid (SCFA), which is a preferential energy source for the
enterocytes and promotes intestinal health.
•FOS (fructooligosaccharies) – prebiotics which aid in GI health and have been shown in a clinical study to help maintain the balance between
beneficial and potentially pathogenic bacteria
