Foods or drinks to prevent kidney problems??

[smfeet2001]

My dh is going through some sort of kidney discomfort...He passed a stone a week ago and he still has tenderness and not all better yet.

He is drinking something that he is not happy about but it is taking care of his problem.

I was just wondering if there are foods or drinks that can prevent kidney faiures, stones, infections etc.

thanks

magnesium and cranberry juice will dissolve stones.Potassium is also needed by the kidneys because it breaks down calcium and makes it useable.Never use the herb Comfrey with Kidney stones. It has too much calcium in it.Aluminum antacids will also prevent phosphorous from being absorbed into the bloodstream.

Make sure that his calcium and phosphorous are being taken in equal amounts. You need the phosphorous to use the calcium. Otherwise stones will develop.
