Hi Liron - good to meet you. I'm not sure if you made it to the Cystinuria day at Guy's recently but there was a lot of very useful information about how to reduce stone formation. Apart from hydration keeping high ph urine can be extremely effective, as can a diet low in animal protein (which also helps to keep PH high).

Not what you're looking for?
