• Low copper and high zinc content to minimize both copper accumulation in hepatocytes and intracellular damage caused by cholestasis.


• The synergistic complex of antioxidants prevents damage to hepatocytes.


• The high energy concentration, provided by the fat content of the food, prevents excessive protein catabolism, thus limiting the risk or progression of hepatic encephalopathy.

• Rice, corn, animal fats, soy protein isolate, hydrolysed animal proteins, beet pulp, minerals, soy oil, vegetable fibres, fish oil, fructo-oligosaccharides, marigold extract (source of lutein) .
