Hill's Prescription Diet: k/d Chicken & Vegetable Stew Wet Cat Food
Hill's Prescription Diet k/d Chicken & Vegetable Stew Wet Cat Food is a clinically proven therapeutic nutrition formulated to support kidney function in cats. When kidney tissue is damaged, the kidneys lose their ability to filter, reabsorb water, and retain nutrients — a condition that cannot be reversed. However, targeted nutritional therapy can help slow the progression of kidney disease. Developed by Hill's nutritionists and veterinarians, this formula features the exclusive ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense blend of betaine and prebiotics to promote a healthy gut microbiome and protect kidney function, alongside Enhanced Appetite Trigger (E.A.T.) technology to stimulate appetite and encourage food intake in cats with reduced appetite due to kidney disease.
How it works:
- Controlled levels of phosphorus and sodium help reduce the workload on the kidneys.
- ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense — an exclusive blend of betaine and prebiotics — promotes a balanced gut microbiome, which helps protect kidney function by reducing harmful toxins produced by gut bacteria.
- Rich in essential amino acids to support and maintain lean muscle mass.
- Enhanced Appetite Trigger (E.A.T.) technology stimulates appetite and encourages increased food intake.
- S+OXSHIELD™ technology helps balance the urinary environment, reducing the risk of both struvite and calcium oxalate crystal formation.
Key Benefits:
- Clinically proven to improve quality of life and extend survival time in cats with kidney disease.
