There are some factors that affect kidney stone formation these vary from genes, environment, body weight, andfluid intake.

Good news is there are a lot foods that can help you, they can create a normal balance of salts and minerals in

urine and break up crystals before they cause a lot of trouble pain and damage in your body.

WHAT TO EAT:

DRINK LOTS OF WATER:- The kidneys filter about 200 quarts of blood to remove salts, water and waste products that form when the

body processes food and liquids, therefore we need to hydrate all day long so we can help our kidneys do their

function properly.

Health care providers recommend that a person should drink 2 to 3 liters of fluid a day

CITRUS DRINKS

- They help alkalize your body

Lemon water is a perfect example for a citrus drink; it hasa natural acid that aids the kidneys by break down waste in

them.

WATCH SODIUM INTAKE:

- Limit sodium intake to 2,300 mg per day.

TIP: check the food labels of the foods you buy and when

going to a restaurant ask about the sodium content of thefoods when you order.

EAT CALCIUM RIGH FOODS:

- Low- fat milk, leafy greens, cruciferous vegetables, nuts



and seeds, cheese. [List of non-dairy calcium-rich foods]

Recommended calcium intake: 1000 mg / people over 50

1200mg. Natural calcium is great for preventing kidney stones!

WHAT TO AVOID:

1. FOODS HIGH IN OXALATES:

-Oxalate can increase the amount of oxalate in the urine,

where it combines with calcium to form calcium oxalatestones.

-Spinach, nuts, wheat bread, chocolate, asparagus.

2.CAFFEINATED DRINKS:-They reduce your fluid intake. Examples of caffeinated

drinks include sodas, energy drinks, coffee and some teas.

3. SALT AND SALTY PRODUCTS:-The main source of sodium is salt; it causes the kidneys to

excrete more calcium into the urine.
