Lemon or Lime Juice Cleanse

-According to the Mayo Clinic, the citric acid in lemon or lime juice may be effective in reducing calcium levels in the urine which reduces the risk of developing calcium kidney stones.

For this type of kidney cleanse, combine:
2 tablespoons of freshly squeezed lemon or lime juice,
2 tablespoons of organic maple syrup,
1/10 teaspoon cayenne pepper,
10 to 14 ounces of spring or purified water, lukewarm in temperature.

(Drink this mixture three times a day for three to five days.)



 In-between you are allowed to drink other diluted fruit or vegetable juices, water and herbal teas as well as eat fresh vegetables and fruits. The goal is to drink at least one gallon of diluted juice each day.

Cranberry Juice Cleanse


Step 1
Drink 6 to 8 cups of water per day. This will ensure that your blood volume stays high and the active ingredients in your kidney cleanse are rapidly delivered to your kidneys.  Drinking a gallon of water a day is a "kidney water cleanse" and is usually enough to clean the kidneys, unless you have lower back pains from kidney stones. Kidney stones and gravel can be dissolved and expelled from the body using a "Watermelon Cleanse" or a "Herbal Kidney Cleanse."





Step 2
Drink 1 to 2 cups of unsweetened cranberry juice per day.


Step 3
(Milk Thistle)

(Green Tea Leaves)

(Green Tea with Milk Thistle)

Support your kidneys further with green tea and milk thistle. Consume 250 to 500 mg of green tea extract daily, or make tea from the leaf itself. You can make the tea by letting the leaves steep in hot water for 5 to 10 minutes. Consume 80 to 160 mg of milk thistle extract two or three times per day. Or make a tea from milk thistle by crushing 1 tbsp. of seeds and letting them steep for 20 minutes.

Naturally Protect Your Kidney Against Stones, Malfunction, and Failure



  •  ELIMINATE SOFT DRINKS!
    Many soft drinks contain both caffeine and sugar. The excess sugar both dehydrates the body and over stimulates the pancreas to release insulin which is stressful on your heart.

  • ELIMINATE CAFFEINE AND ALCOHOL!

    Caffeine and alcohol are strong diuretics. For every cup of coffee or glass of beer, the body gives up three glasses of water—which means the body is perpetually dehydrated.
    People who regularly consume these beverages can never really quench their thirst because their bodies are always running out of water.


  • SWEAT MORE!
    Sweating helps to eliminate toxins through your skin and thus alleviates the load placed on your lungs, colon and kidneys.

  • REDUCE RED MEAT INTAKE!
    Uric acid kidney stones form when we consume excessive amounts of animal protein —especially red meat. If the kidneys don’t remove all the uric acid, it ends up in the areas of the body with the poorest circulation like the toes and the feet and gout crystals (uric acid) are formed.

  • INCREASE YOUR GREENS!
    When you eat meat, cheese and all processed foods, you are eating acid-forming foods that throw off acid waste that accumulates in the kidneys. When you eat greens or green drinks, you alkalize the body and help cleanse acid waste accumulation.



  • TAKE VIGOROUS EXERCISE!
    When you walk, run, jump on a mini-trampoline or ride a bike for 20 minutes every day, you help activate the lymph system which helps cleanse the body of toxins and reduces stress on the kidneys.



  • REDUCE USE OF OVER-THE-COUNTER PAINKILLERS!
    Over the-counter painkillers must be broken down by the liver and kidneys. Both organs can become extremely taxed, fatigued and worn out by this constant detoxification process.


Herbs for a Natural Kidney Cleanse


Looking for a natural way to cleanse your kidneys? In addition to drinking plenty of water (which is important to do every day), here are some botanicals that are traditionally used for the occasional kidney cleanse:

[Uva Ursi (Bearberry)]

Uva Ursi is an astringent herb that can have an antiseptic effect on the kidneys, and as such has been used to address conditions such as urethritis (inflammation of the urethra) and cystitis (inflammation of the bladder).


(Horsetail)

 Horsetail is high in silica and is also an astringent. It is also a diuretic, which means it helps you produce more urine, flushing out infectious agents and irritants. The high silica content might also help restore damaged, irritated tissue in the urinary tract and help tone the bladder.


(Parsley)

Parsley is a potent diuretic. It is believed to help rid the body of excess urea and other acidic metabolites. It is also highly nutritious.



(Nettle in bowl, Nettle Tea in Glass)


Nettle is packed with important vitamins and minerals including chlorophyll, beta carotene, vitamins A, B2, C and E, calcium, potassium, and iron. Like parsley, it is a powerful diuretic that is believed to rid the body of urea along with harmful bacteria.

If you’re interested in doing a kidney cleanse, talk to your health care professional about which of these or other botanicals might be good for you.

Obey nature’s urges

When you feel an initial need to visit the restrooms, don’t put it off.
Postponing urinating means the body starts to reabsorb some of the toxins which the kidneys have already filtered out.
