MONGE VET CAT-HEPATIC 400G

Silybin, the active ingredient of milk thistle seed extract in the Fit-aroma formula in MONGE VETSOLUTION FELINE HEPATIC has many positive properties affecting the functioning of the liver. In hepatocytes, silybin inhibits the development of free radicals, inhibiting lipid peroxidation, preventing inflammation and fibrosis of the liver. The anti-inflammatory properties of Silybin work already at the level of the DNA / RNA nucleus.

Key to the development of liver fibrosis is the conversion of liver stellate cells into myofibroblasts, which is limited by Silybin by disrupting cell signaling. Silybin reduces stellate DNA synthesis, spread and formation of fibrous tissue.

Silybin limits changes in biochemical parameters and blood coagulation, and reduces the degree of hepatic hemorrhagic necrosis . It also inhibits the absorption of toxins on the mucosa of hepatocytes by acting on salts  . The pharmacokinetics of Silybin complexed to phosphatidylcholine in cats has recently been established and shows that the oral bioavailability increases by approximately 7%, partly due to limited glucuronidation capacity in this species. Silybin remains largely confined to intestinal recirculation and bile concentrations are nearly 100 times higher than serum concentrations. Silybin's hepatoprotective action increases protein synthesis, which is essential for liver regeneration.

Proteins: formulated with moderate levels of protein, mostly of vegetable origin (pea protein)

Fat: high fat content helps to reduce food intake and also helps counteract poor appetite problems in patients with liver problems

Carbohydrates: Tapioca is an ideal source of highly digestible carbohydrates to support abnormal liver metabolism

Minerals: MONGE VETSOLUTION FELINE HEPATIC is low in copper, which helps reduce intracellular copper accumulation and cell damage
