Home Cure for Kidney Stones

Dissolving Kidney Stones

Dissolving kidney stones is an effective way to get rid of your stones. Unfortunately, most doctors only recommend drinking plenty of water which in most cases is not enough. You can dissolve your stones because 9 out of 10 stones are made up of calcium.

Calcium is a fairly fragile mineral that is easily dissolved. Here are some tips to begin your home cure for kidney stones.

Home Cure for Kidney Stones

1. Continue to drink plenty of water. You should try to drink at least 100 ounces of water per day. That is a lot considering that a gallon of water is 128 ounces of water.

2. Keeping your diet high in citric acid can be helpful. For instance, eating at least 3-5 fruits daily can aid to the dissolution process.

3. You should also be supplementing ascorbic acid. Ascorbic acid is another name for Vitamin C. You should supplement 2000 mg daily.

4. Finally, probably the most effective acid is phosphoric acid which is used in many of the beverages we drink but also cleaning products. Phosphoric acid is completely digestible but it is used in cleaning products to break apart calcium buildup. If you connect the pieces, you can understand why phosphoric acid is an effective home remedy.
