6 T safflower oil
1 tsp salt substitute
6 tsp dicalcium phosphate
1-1 tsp pectin.

Can use a strong low salt cheese to flavor. (Center S. A., Reynolds, A., College of Veterinary Medicine, Cornell University, Ithaca, NY, 14853).

Dr. W told me that the diet needs to be HIGH in Carbs for liver issues, so veggies are probably second best
