    Default Home treatment for kidney stones

    * Drink lots of water and other fluids, aiming for at least two litres a day.

    * Eat moderate amounts of calcium-rich foods. Stay away from calcium supplements and vitamin D supplements, which increase the intestinal absorption of calcium.

    * Avoid foods with high levels of oxalate; spinach, beets, sweet potatoes, nuts, instant coffee, tea and chocolate head this list.

    * Avoid excessive amounts of protein, especially from meat and other animal sources. Reduce your consumption of salt, staying below the recommended maximum of 2,400 mg per day.

    * Increase your consumption of citrus fruits and juices (except apple and grapefruit juices); in addition to potassium, they provide a second helpful nutrient, citrate.

    That is such a helpful way to make people be familiarize on how to deal with kidney stones. Because nowadays, people used to disregard the food they should intake to avoid from having kidney stones.
