Recurrence of stones can be
avoided by taking certain measures:
· Drink at least 12 full glasses of water a day. Water helps to flush away excess substances that form stones in the kidneys.
·
Lemonade is a good source of citrate and may
be recommended as an alternative to water.
·
High levels of dietary calcium intake protect
against rather than cause stone formation in some patients. But high calcium from non-foods like calcium supplements
actually increases the risk of kidney stones.
·
Avoid sugar, alcohol,
antacids, excessive protein, carbonated beverages, caffeine, refined white
flour products such as pasta, white bread, and baked goods, meat, salt, and foods high in
phosphates and oxalates (eg. tomatoes, diary products, green leafy vegetables, beetroot,
chocolate, nuts).
·
A hot-water bottle or an ice pack
held over the site of the pain usually offers some relief.
·
Avoid high dose long term
supplementation with Vitamin C & D.
·
Eat a high fibre diet.
·
Lose any excess weight.
·
Increase Vitamin A rich foods.
·
Increase exercise.
Hence, to
relieve the symptoms of Kidney stones and to promote urinary and renal function
with the help of a safe, natural and effective treatment consider Homeopathy.
