Benefits
Increased water consumption. The high protein and sodium content stimulates water consumption by increasing the frequency and quantity of urination.
Rapid dissolution of stones and prevention of stone recurrence. The average healing time is 20.5 days, which means the disappearance of all clinical urinary and ultrasound signs and the absence of crystals in the urine analysis.
Optimises urinary pH. A urinary pH between 6.0 and 6.5 prevents the formation of struvite and oxalate crystals (efficacy demonstrated by Virbac).
Phosphorus chelator. The addition of chitosan helps to ensure that less phosphorus is eliminated in urine, thus reducing the risk of crystal formation.
Body weight control. The moderate energy concentration of the diet and the adapted daily rations help to maintain optimal body weight.
