[Clinical observations about an oligomineral water from the "Funtana Piscamu" of San Leonardo di Siete Fuentes].
In this study we evaluated the effects induced by the administration of a natural oligomineral water "Funtana Piscamo" di San Leonardo di Siete Fuentes on patient with urinary stone disease. Urine from 30 stone formers attending our metabolic stone clinic were compared with freshly voided urine of 20 normal volunteers. A marked increase in urinary magnesium (p less than 0.001) and a change in the urinary Ca/Mg ratio (p less than 0.005) were the most striking features disclosed in patients with stone disease. This natural oligomineral water drawn from "Funtana Piscamu di San Leonardo di Siete Fuentes" seems to have a long-term efficacy in urinary stone prevention.
