Kidney Diets for Cats: What to Look for.

Kidney Diets for Cats: What to Look for.Kidney disease is extremely common in cats. It can develop quickly, because of something like an infection or exposure to antifreeze, or over many years for no apparent reason. Symptoms and treatment for kidney disease vary depending the specifics of the case, but oftentimes, a diet change can help. The kidneys have many roles in the body. Two of these major roles include removing waste products from the bloodstream and conserving water. When kidney function declines past a certain point, toxic waste products like urea and phosphorous begin to back up within the body, which can make a cat feel terrible. Poor kidney function also leads to dehydration because more water than normal is lost in the urine. Both of these problems can be at least partially addressed with diet. Foods that have a high water content can help prevent dehydration, and when cats eat a diet made from moderate amounts of high quality protein, they produce less urea and phosphorous that then needs to be eliminated. Dats who are in the early stages of kidney disease often thrive when fed an appropriate, over-the-counter food. Canned foods are best because they contain much more water than dry foods, but you still need to make sure the diet is made from high-quality ingredients. Look for animal-based protein sources (chicken, beef, salmon, etc.) that sound like something you might eat rather than a byproduct of a manufacturing process. If your cat simply will not eat canned food, choose a dry food that is made from high-quality ingredients and do everything you can to encourage your cat to drink a lot of water. If your cat eats dry food, you may need to start giving subcutaneous fluids (fluids injected under the skin) sooner than you would otherwise.

Cassava: benefits of cassava flakes as a fermented food.

Cassava: benefits of garri as a fermented food. Cassava processing involves fermentation which is a plus for gut health. The fermentation process removes the cyanogenic glucosides present in the fresh cassava. This method of processing is also a method of preservation.

 Cassava undergoes various processing types to yield different products. Fermentation is an important component of the production and has health benefits and implications. Fermentation of cassava is usually of 2 types, the solid state fermentation and the submerged fermentation. The solid state fermentation used by garri producers, uses grated/sliced cassava pieces that are allowed to ferment while pressed in a bag in a natural environment. 

 The submerged fermentation involves the soaking of the whole peeled cassava in water for various periods and this is used by lafun and fufu producers. 

Cassava is fermented for 4-6 days to allow for maximum detoxification. Cassava: benefits of garri as a fermented food.
