The role of dietary management in feline gastrointestinal conditions is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. Some cats with diarrhea are sensitive to dietary carbohydrates. Feeding a high quality diet which is high in protein and low in carbohydrates provides optimal nutrition for these cats with compromised gastrointestinal tracts. With added B vitamins, easily absorbed chelated minerals, and moderate fat content, EN provides the nutrients needed to help support cats with GI tract problems. In addition, many pet owners are looking for a natural solution to help nutritionally manage their cats with gastrointestinal issues. A natural GI dietary option helps support client compliance while providing therapeutic nutrition.
