Advantages:

DL-methionine – has urine-acidifying properties that reduce the formation of struvite stones.Struvite stones, also known as magnesium-ammonium-phosphate stones, form in alkaline urine.A product recommended for cats with recurring lower urinary tract problems.

Cranberry – the hippuric acid they contain has a bacteriostatic effect; furthermore, proanthocyanidins, by binding to bacterial fibers, prevent bacteria from adhering to the epithelial cells of the urinary tract.It effectively lowers the pH of urine, which results in a reduced ability of uropathogens to colonize the bladder and the urinary tract.Thanks to these properties, it supports the treatment of infections and recurrent, chronic urinary tract infections in cats.

Salmon oil and black cumin oil – their inclusion helps maximize the involvement of polyunsaturated fatty acids from the Omega-3 and Omega-6 families in the biochemical regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokine production and through the specific inhibition of cyclooxygenase (COX-2) activity; Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids exhibit analgesic and relaxing effects on the smooth muscle of blood vessels in the kidney.

High-quality protein – food based on sources of complete, low-fat animal protein.The addition of eggs raises the limiting amino acid ratio to a level that ensures the proper balance in the utilization of all amino acids.The amount of protein meets the body's minimum requirement for amino acids but does not cause excessive catabolism or the formation of byproducts that could interfere with kidney function.Reduced magnesium content—the ingredients have been selected to ensure that the diet contains a reduced amount of magnesium, thereby limiting the component needed to form struvite crystals.

Mojave Yucca – when added to the diet, it helps reduce intestinal gas production and the intensity of fecal odor.In addition, the saponins in the Mojave yucca exhibit antibacterial activity that suppresses protozoal infections in the intestines, and the polyphenols have anti-inflammatory effects.
