What can I use to prevent kidney stones! I get them regularly ! I have minimal daily pain to my left kidney and less to my right kidney and urinate at least 1 stone per 2 months out of my system with great pain when it struggles to get thru my penis !
Heartwhisper answered Saturday February 4 2006, 2:56 pm: First I'd strongly suggest you visit your local library and search for books about natural cures or perhaps there is a working herb store in your area like there is here for me.
I was married to a working herbalist for almost ten years. I was very ill and almost died, but with dietary changes and lots of natural supplments and herbal blends I regained my health and well-being.
Doing dairy is bad, it can be hard on the kidneys as can be soda pops and coffee and the like. So look at what your consume.
I know there are herbal teas, special blends found in any legitimate working herb store that will eliminate kidney stones all together. But one must know and understand why and how kidney stones are produced by the body, then begin eliminating the causes.
There is lots of hope for you.... the body is really good at reparing itself, but you must give it the opportunity to do so.
Drink lots of water.... do a parasite cleanse, as internal parasites can cause blockages... and if you wish further info.... contact me and I'll share more.... good luck! [ Heartwhisper's advice column | Ask Heartwhisper A Question ]
"Preventive strategies include dietary modifications and sometimes also taking drugs with the goal of reducing excratory load on the kidneys:
-Drinking enough water to make 2 to 2.5 litres of urine per day.
-A diet low in protein, nitrogen and sodium intake.
-Restriction of oxalate-rich foods and maintaining an adequate intake of dietary calcium is recommended. There is no convincing evidence that calcium supplements increase the risk of stone formation.
-Taking drugs such as thiazides, potassium citrate and allopurinol depending on the cause of stone formation." [ MaxwellsSilverHammer's advice column | Ask MaxwellsSilverHammer A Question ]
