Food sensitivities and intolerance are potentially serious problems that can result in irritated skin, coat and ear conditions or even gastrointestinal upset. Dogs that have adverse food reactions due to a food allergy (typically to a protein in the food) or intolerance benefit from a food designed for food sensitivities. Hill’s nutritionists and veterinarians developed Prescription Diet z/d clinical nutrition especially formulated to support your dog’s food sensitivities. In fact, z/d is clinically proven nutrition to reduce skin & digestive signs from food intolerances.

Food sensitivities happen because proteins enter the skin and cross the digestive system to the body causing immune system to react. z/d is a specialized food with proteins that are gentle and broken into smaller pieces to help avoid detection by the immune system to help your dog feed better, prebiotics to create a healthy gut microbiome balance and fatty acids to build healthy skin.

z/d is nutrition clinically proven to reduce skin & digestive signs from food intolerances which are the outward signs you see.
