Orange juice: A kidney stone sufferer's best friend!

by Vanessa Jackson, FSP Health, 24 February 2014

Instead of taking medications to prevent your kidney stones, use this natural remedy! Oranges contain a natural form of citrate, which does the exact same thing as traditional kidney stone med. So, ditch the meds, and grab a glass of orange juice in the mornings to keep your kidneys stone free instead…

If you’re on medications for your kidney stones, it probably the potassium citrate type. The citrate binds to calcium in your kidneys, so it’s not available to bind to oxalate. The combination of oxalate and calcium is what forms those painful kidney stones!

Drink orange juice and get your natural dose of citrate

While neither potassium nor citrate in the meds are particularly bad for you, after all, it’s a chemical process that binds them together. So that said, it’s much easier for your body to use the natural types that come from the foods you eat.

So just get the same ingredient from orange juice. The citrate that comes from oranges is easily digested and immediately available for your body to use. It goes straight to the source of the problem, right in your kidneys.

Can’t tolerate the normal kidney stone medication? Orange juice can help!

And there’s another benefit to drinking orange juice to get your dose of citrate. Some people simply can’t tolerate the combination of potassium and citrate in the meds. So while it prevents kidney stones forming, it has a bad effect on your stomach. Kidney stone free but in pain with diarrhoea and vomiting.

According to Dr Clarita Odvina, of the Charles and Jane Pak Center for Mineral Metabolism and Clinical Research, "Orange juice could potentially play an important role in the management of kidney stones and is an option for patients who are intolerant of potassium citrate."

So drink a glass of 100% unsweetened orange juice every day with your breakfast. It tastes great and is a natural way to prevent painful kidney stones forming.

P.s) Eliminate your pain and pee as freely as the day you were born
