Re: kidney stone

[Guest guest]

Go to the file sections and look - the kidney stone stuff must be there

somewhere! Hey guys, what about putting some of the

hypercalciuria/kidney stone info in the FAQs?? It certainly is

frequently asked enough )

No you don't have to stop the diet, there are other things that can be

done. Start with 24 hr urine to see how much calcium she is peeing out

(that is what is making stones) then look at adding polycitra to make

blood and urine less acidic. Check the file sections on the kidney

stones, then if any specific questions, just ask. We have been dealing

with this issue for for over 3 years now
