This stimulates the metabolism. Iodine is vital for the production of thyroid hormones. Hill's Feline y\/d Thyroid Health is an iodine-restricted food, which helps to inhibit the production of thyroid hormones. You will usually see a drop in thyroid hormones within 4 weeks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHyperthyroidism in cats\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHyperthyroidism, or an overactive thyroid, is a common condition in cats that are over 10 years old. Usually it concerns a benign tumour, causing the thyroid gland to create excessive amounts of thyroid hormones, which negatively effect the function of multiple organs. Symptoms that may indicate thyroid problems are: increased thirst, increased urination, losing weight even though the cat eats well, restless behaviour, poor grooming, vomiting and diarrhoea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRecommended for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNutritional support for hyperthyroidism in cats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eKey benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScientifically proven food for improving the health of cats' thyroid glands.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eImproves the health of the thyroid gland in 3 weeks (results vary).\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe low iodine content in the food helps to normalise the production of thyroid hormone (T4).\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe food is an easy treatment, so no further medication is required.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHill's y\/d - Thyroid Health is a complete daily diet and has a flavour that cats will love.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe diet is available in dry or wet food.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControlled amounts of phosphorus and magnesium support the kidneys and urinary tract.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA high amount of Omega-3 fatty acids help support healthy kidneys.\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupports healthy heart function with high amounts of L-carnitine and taurine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe food creates urine with a pH of 6.4-6.6, which is gentle on the urinary tract.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eNot suitable for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKittens and pregnant or lactating cats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eRecommendation for changing the current diet to Hill's y\/d - Thyroid Health:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduce Hill's y\/d - Thyroid Health gradually over a period of 7 days.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMix Hill's y\/d - Thyroid Health with your cat's normal food.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse an increasing amount of the new food until it is 100% Hill's y\/d - Thyroid Health.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpeak with your veterinarian first, if your cat is prescribed any anti-thyroid drugs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003ePlease note!\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIodine from other dietary sources - from snacks, the food of other pets, eating leftovers - can limit the efficacy of a low iodine diet. It is very important that Hill's y\/d - Thyroid Health is the cat's only source of food. If the cat ingests iodine again, more thyroid hormones will be produced and the symptoms will reoccur. For cats who go outside, there is the risk that they will eat something that contains iodine.
