Recommended Nutrition for Kidney and Bladder Stones

 



Reducing Salt/Sodium Intake

The human body carefully regulates sodium levels.
When excess sodium is excreted in the urine, calcium is also excreted proportionally.
In other words, the more sodium is consumed and excreted, the more calcium will be lost in the urine. Excess calcium in the urine can lead to the re-formation of stones: an increase in salt in the diet causes an increase in salt in the urine and an excess secretion of calcium and thereby increases the risk of calcium stones.
Patients must reduce dietary salt levels, including fast foods, packaged or canned foods, and salty snacks.
Paying attention to food packaging labels can be important.
Eating in restaurants scares control over sodium intake.
The goal is to consume less than two grams of sodium per day. A clinical dietitian can be used to achieve this goal.


Citrus Fruits

Citrus fruits that contain citrate will reduce the risk of stones, this is true of orange and lemon juice, but in contrast, grapefruit juice increased the risk by 44 and therefore it is recommended to drink orange and lemon juice and not grapefruit juice.

Go Vegan 


Vegetarians are much less likely to develop kidney stones than meat-eaters.
Adopt a diet based on uncooked fresh vegetables and whole grains.
Eat beans, legumes, nuts, seeds, and nuts - these foods are a good source of protein.
