• A high protein diet helps: - maintain muscle mass more effectively than a traditional diet - maintain a high palatability • For an equal metabolisable energy level, proteins provide 30% less net energy than carbohydrates • L-carnitine promotes the transport of fat into the mitochondria
Increasing the urine volume reduces simultaneously the saturation of urine with struvite and calcium oxalate. This promotes a urinary environment unfavourable to development of both struvite and calcium oxalate uroliths.
The low starch content limits energy assimilation, helps limit weight gain, occurrence of obesity and development of a prediabetic state.
Lowering the energy intake thanks to water dilution helps promote satiety by allowing larger dietary bolus.
