Stix and Stones CAPSULES - Kidney (Renal) Urinary Tract Infection and Stone Support* (* As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system)

STIX AND STONES CAPSULES is a potent antioxidant and first clases adaptogen which contains antioxidants, hydroquinones, astragalin, brevifolin, carboxylic acids, corilagin, cymene, ellagic acid, ellagitannins, gallocatechins, geraniin, hypophyllanthin, lignans, lintetralins, lupeols, methyl salicylate, niranthin, nirtetralin, niruretin, nirurin, nirurine, niruriside, norsecurinines, phyllanthin, phyllanthine, phyllanthenol, phyllochrysine, phyltetralin, repandusinic acids, quercetin, quercetol, quercitrin, rutin, saponins, triacontanal and tricontanol.

STIX AND STONES CAPSULES has demonstrated kidney and liver protective actions, antilithic (expels stones), pain-relieving, hypotensive, antispasmodic, antiviral, antibacterial, diuretic, antimutagenic, and hypoglycemic activities, with additional demonstrated plant enzyme actions which may be a alternative form against urolithiasis, to help block calcium oxalate as well as struvite stones from forming, as well as related urinary inflammation and infection.

Part of the potential success of these plants surrounds the smooth muscle relaxation plant actions within the urinary or biliary tract which probably facilitates the expulsion of kidney or bladder calculi.

STIX AND STONES CAPSULES is used holistically to help support healthy kidney function and to help reduce inflammation in the bladder and kidneys related to urinary tract infections. It may also help provide a preventative layer of support against urinary infections and crystal and stone formation in the kidneys, ureters and bladder, due to its natural plant chemical content including antioxidants, lignans, glycosides, flavonoids, linolic acid, alkaloids, ellagitannins, phenylpropanoids, lipids, sterols, and flavonols.

Additionally, it may help deliver a secondary benefit in helping assist in breaking up k idney, liver, gallbladder and bladder stones, gravel, crystals and calculi, STIX AND STONES CAPSULES contains healthy, natural plant chemicals that are strongly antiviral, antibacterial, antispasmodic and analgesic (pain relieving).

Did you know that once your pet has a bladder and kidney infection or stones, there is an 80 percent chance they will reoccur?

STIX AND STONES CAPSULES acts to help safely remove stones from the animal body without surgical intervention and is effective on over 94% of all stones, crystals and calculi and related urinary tract infections. It may also help to reduce spasmodic activity in the kidneys, bladder and ureters, supporting the smooth expulsion of stones from the animal body and increases the secretion of bile in the liver, boosting digestion and reducing the risk of gallstones. Meanwhile, it actively works to help tone, balance, strengthen, detoxify, revitalize and protect the kidneys, liver, intestines, pancreas and gall bladder against infection and disease.

This plant wonder works to help combat persistent kidney infections (upper urinary tract) and bladder infections (lower urinary tract) by reducing cortisol and calcium levels in the blood as well as works to help normalize pH levels so that neither acidity or alkalinity is present; a critical component as it relates to the prevention of all types of urogenital infections and stones.

STIX AND STONES CAPSULES also works to help minimize the likelihood of crystal and stone formation by blocking their formation in the kidneys and bladder (i.e. calcium oxalate stones result from acidic urine; struvite stones from alkaline urine). It also may help carry out reparative actions against the dysfunction that allows stones to form by helping to block unwanted material from entering kidney cells and supporting their safe elimination in the urinary tract. As a primary pain reliever, it is used holistically as a natural alternative to aspirin or acetaminophen, documented to be 7 times more effective at helping address pain, which may help your dog or cat feel relief during and after their stones are broken up. (* As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system)

While genetics can predispose your dog or cat to all types of stone formation, diet is usually the primary factor, but also unfiltered tap water, treats with inferior proteins, fillers and other questionable ingredients, synthetic medications and an acidic diet can all be contributing causes.

Other therapeutic indications of STIX AND STONES CAPSULES includes the holistic use to help strengthen and tone connective bladder tissue related to urinary incontinence; may help reduce conditional needs and symptomatic response related to prostatitis and vaginitis; Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV): Feline Lower Urinary Tract Disease (FLUTD): Fatty Liver Disease (FLD); and for Non-Inflammatory Hereditary Myotonia and pancreatitis. (* As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system)

STIX AND STONES CAPSULES are used adjunctively to help address conditional needs and symptomatic response associated with kidney and liver disease and dysfunction; may help reduce uric acid; may help normalize liver enzyme levels; may be useful in cases of vaccinosis due to its natural plant chemicals that are strongly antiviral, antibacterial, antispasmodic and analgesic (pain relieving) and detoxifying. (* As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system)

Its secondary metabolites and plant actions may also help lend conditional support to symptomatic needs related to stomach and digestive disorders including indigestion, excessive gas, constipation, dyspepsia; Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD); for Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBD); ulcerative colitis (UC); for Leaky Gut Syndrome (LGS); for Intestinal Dysbiosis and Intestinal Hypermerability.

There is emerging research that potentially links chronic kidney and bladder infections with conditions such as diabetes and Cushing's disease. If your pet suffers from chronic infection, please see your holistic veterinarian. (* As recommended by holistic veterinarians for use under a traditional medical system)

Recommended Use

ALS, Adult, Senior, Puppy, Kitten, to monitor kidney and liver function parameters (BUN, Creatine, Phosphorus, urine specific gravity, ALT, Bilirubin, GTT) to evaluate organ function and response to treatment.

Your pet may drink more water and require more frequent bathroom breaks while using STIX and STONES, which is a normal and healthy response to the natural detoxification process. It is suggested you add in a pet friendly prebiotic/probiotic to help maintain gut health and electrolyte balance.

If you are NOT giving your pet a probiotic, suggested to use 30 days, then break for 7 days, then resume use, unless your pet(TM)s condition is life threatening.

If your pet is dealing with a life threatening blockage or unpassable stone, it is generally not suggested that you take a break. In all cases, adding a probiotic may help maintain native gut flora and support natural anti-microbial actions.

You should not see physical stones in your pet's stools or urine. STIX and STONES contains Chanca Piedra, and its literal translation means stone crusher and stone breaker and passed stone and crystal sediment will likely not be visible.
