Probiotics and renal issues
Recent research suggests that when cats and dogs with renal disease are given probiotics, their blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine concentrations dropped.
More reseach is needed but since probiotics is not toxic and does not have any long term side effects, the benefit outweights any possible risks.
Cats and dogs with renal issues will also benefit from Gold-D Salmon oil to reduce inflamation.
