Sodium polyphosphate binds salivary calcium, making it unavailable for tartar formation
Increasing the urine volume reduces both calcium oxalate and struvite saturation. Thanks to this approach, the diet helps make the urinary environment unfavourable to the development of both struvite and calcium oxalate crystals
Highly digestible protein (wheat gluten) limits fermentation processes in the intestine, thus reducing flatulence. Rice, a highly digestible source of starch, improves the overall diet digestibility. FOS and beet pulp stimulate the growth of a beneficial intestinal flora
Psyllium and dietary fibres facilitate hairball elimination and help prevent hairball-related problems such as vomiting and/or constipation
A combination of fibre to facilitate intestinal transit and the elimination of hairballs in stools.
