How To Prevent Kidney Stones
How To Prevent Kidney Stones
Water is the best and cheapest way to help prevent
kidney stones. You should drink 1 quart of water for
every 50 pounds of weight. So that would be 3 quarts
of water, if you weighed 150 pounds. It is especially
significant to drink lots of water if you have already
had kidney stones in the past.
Your doctor will need to tell you what types of foods
to avoid or cut back on depending on what type of kidney
stones you have. This will include both food and drink.
If you have calcium stones (the most common type), your
doctor may ask you to cut back on salt and sodium in your
food. Excessive sodium causes you to lose more calcium in
your urine.
An alternative health care program may also suggest some
herbs or homeopathics to aid your body to normalize.
