I want to know, that why these are developing again and again. What should I do, so that these stones can be prevented from occurring again and again? Suggest any home remedy.
Answer:
Kidney Stone Remedy
Kidney stones sometimes recur, if the individual has a predisposition to developing them, and if the dietary pattern is faulty and triggers their formation.
Home remedies to prevent and cure kidney stones:
- The most important remedy is – water. See to it that you drink a minimum of 3 and a 1/2 to 4 liters of water per day. Water flushes out salts and debris that may accumulate and tend to form stones.
- In addition, drink lots of fluids – coconut water, juices, soups, porridges, etc.
- Cranberries : Are highly effective in the treatment of kidney calculi. The berries tone up the urinary bladder and the kidney and reduce the burden of toxic elimination on them.
- Berberis, a homoeopathic remedy is decidedly effective against kidney stones. It dissolves the calculi and prevents recurrences.
- Avoid consuming refined and processed foods.
- Basil : The leaves of the holy basil help in the management of kidney stones. Chewing the leaves or basil juice helps expel the stones from the urinary tract. It also has a potent strengthening effect on the kidneys.
