DISSOLVES STRUVITE CRYSTALS Effectively dissolves particular urinary stones called struvites
LOW RSS Helps lower the risk of crystal formation.
URINE DILUTION Helps to prevent urinary crystals.
LOW MAGNESIUM This diet is low in magnesium - a component of struvite urinary crystals.
Key Benefits Pouches:
