Kidney Stone Flush

Kidney stones are hard deposits made of minerals and salts that form inside the kidneys, causing pain and potential complications if left untreated. They form when your urine contains more crystal forming substances, such as calcium, oxalate, and uric acid, than the fluid in your urine can dilute. Additionally, your urine may lack substances that prevent crystals from sticking together, creating an ideal environment for stones to form. Other factors include dehydration, dietary habits (high in protein, sodium, and sugar), obesity, and certain medical conditions.

Kidney stones can cause severe pain in the back, lower abdomen or groin. Sickness and nausea, frequent urination or an urgent need to urine. Blood in urine or smelly urine.

Preventative lifestyle changes and early detection can significantly reduce the discomfort and risks associated with kidney stones

Thoroughly wash six medium sized red beetroots without peeling or cutting them. Boil them in water, ensuring they are fully submerged, for approximately one hour on low heat to prevent the water from evaporating.

After boiling, strain and bottle the beetroot water, store in the fridge to maintain freshness. Consume three glasses of this beetroot water daily for three to four days. This process may dissolves the stones, although in some cases, small stones may still pass. A second boiling is rarely necessary.

This treatment can also be used for bladder gravel, though it may require a longer duration of use. While following this remedy, avoid consuming vinegar, as it may interfere with the treatment.

If fresh beetroot is unavailable, canned beetroot can serve as an alternative, with the liquid from the can being used in the same manner.

It’s important to note that an imbalance in magnesium levels can prevent the body from properly utilising calcium, leading to the formation of kidney stones. Ensuring adequate magnesium intake can help regulate calcium use and reduce the risk of stone formation.
