Lithosolv Supplement Of Alkaline Salts Of Potassium Granules 153g

LITHO SOLV FORMULA RETARD

Food supplement of alkaline potassium salts able to correct the excessive acid load, which can be directly evaluated by measuring the urinary pH; this can be easily done through the use of the strips attached to the package. The urinary pH is a value that varies throughout the day with more significant drops during the night and in the morning; for this reason it is preferable to measure it especially upon awakening. If the pH value is lower than 6 it is advisable, if confirmed by the doctor, to make any correction by taking Lithosolv in the morning and in the evening, then verifying its urinary alkalizing action with the appropriate strips. In the presence of uratic stones it is advisable to maintain the urinary pH between 6.5-6.8 to favor the dissolution of the uric acid crystals. A daily water intake of 2.5-3 liters is also recommended to facilitate the dilution of urinary auric acid.

Ingrediants

	for 1 measuring cup (5.1 g)
Potassium bicarbonate	1.031 g
Potassium citrate of which potassium	2.228 g 30 mEq

How to use
1 scoop taken on a full stomach preferably in the evening. The particular retard formulation of the powder allows a continuous release of alkalizing substances ensuring constant pH values throughout the day. In the event that the urinary pH, measured in the morning upon awakening, is still lower than 6.0, it is advisable to take a second measuring cup after the morning coalition.
Pour the contents of a measuring cup into half a glass of water, mixing thoroughly; due to the lipophilic nature of the microgranules which guarantee the controlled release of the alkaline salts contained in them, a suspension will be formed which must be taken immediately. The insolubility of the micro granulate is therefore a peculiarity of the preparation and does not affect its absorption and effectiveness.

How to use the pH strips
A Collect the urine in a container. With dry hands. take a strip from the transparent sachet. Immerse the strip in the urine for 1 second, remove it and drain the excess urine. The wet part of the strip will take on a different color depending on the pH of the urine. Within 2 minutes, compare the color of the stripe or that of the reference color chart, present in the package. Read the value corresponding to the color that comes closest to that of the strip.
