Additional information
Indications:
Renal failure.
Liver diseases associated with hepatic encephalopathy;
Early stage of congestive heart failure.
Hypertension.
Contraindications:
Diseases requiring an increased amount of protein or phosphorus.
Pregnancy, growth period.
NF also contains reduced calcium, vitamin D3 and urine-alkalising ingredients, which are recommended for patients with known oxalate lithiasis.
Reduced phosphorus content - Helps prevent the development of hyperphosphatemia and associated kidney damage.
Reduced but high protein levels - Reduces the formation of uremic toxins and the absorption of non-essential amino acids.
Reduced sodium content - Prevents hypernatremia at a time of reduced ability to regulate this element.
Source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids - Help reduce hypertension in the glomeruli and minimise inflammation of affected kidneys (thereby reducing the risk of hypertension).
Non-acidifying urinary diet - Leads to a urinary pH of 6.7-7.1 when fed at will, which reduces the risk of acidosis and supports the therapy of oxalate lithiasis.
Desired urinary pH of 7.1 +/- 0.4.
