Kidneys

[Guest guest]

Could I tell you stories about kidney problems! I have a defect in the tube

running from my kidneys to my bladder. This has caused numerous infections

and I now have scar tissue on my kidneys because of them. I have been to the

hospital so many times I am on a first name basis with the ER staff. LOL

Water, water and more water is great for them. It flushes out the toxins and

keeps them working properly. Protein in your urine is one of the signs your

kidneys are not functioning properly and you could be headed for kidney

disease. It is not usually caused by consuming too much protein. If you are

drinking enough water, a normal functioning kidney will flush out what it

does not use. Just my 2 cents worth.

I haven't seen a kidney flush, just liver ones.

I would be interested in the kidney flush as well...

==>Kidneys being sore means your body is trying to handle a lot of

toxins, so yes it would be part of the healing symptoms. Cut back on

the amount of garlic and only gradually increase it.

==>Hi . Dark circles under your eyes do not necessarily indicate

kidney issues. Dark circles are mainly caused by an overload of toxins

in your body, and if you have candida they will include candida toxins,

which includes over 79 different kinds, most of which are alcohol.

There is a lot of misunderstanding " out there " about a proper balanced

diet, particularly with regards to protein. It is well-known that

protein in and of itself does not cause kidney problems. It is when

the diet is lacking in other nutrients that diseases like kidney

problems occur, i.e. low and bad fats, minerals, omega-3 and the oil

soluble vitamins A, D, & E, and a good ocean sea salt which provides

sodium plus chloride = salt (2 of the 7 macrominerals required daily)

and over 84 other minerals, including trace minerals, and they all work

together to absorb and utlize all nutrients in foods, including protein.

In fact meats, eggs, and good fats I recommend are the very easiest

foods for the body to digest compared to any carbs (any foods not

classified as protein or fat).

That is why this diet plus supplements works so well for any health

issues, not just candida. Therefore it is a " healing program " which

improves anyone health because it provides the body with all of the

nutrients it requires (according to Mother Nature) in order to heal

itself naturally.

The type of salt recommended here is just like the body's fluids, i.e.

tears:

You need salt to live! A healthy, active lifestyle demands sufficient

salt intake. Human life is dependent on the presence of sodium.

If you were to ask anyone to pass the salt, it is a given that in most

restaurants you would receive a shaker full of processed sodium

chloride. This modern salt is not what it used to be. It is not, in

fact, the composition that it was when it became our condiment of

choice.

Today's table salt is 98% sodium chloride - no trace minerals, no

natural balance. Ordinary table salt is a chemical as clean as Heroin

or White Sugar. It almost always contain additives, like 0.01% of

potassium-Iodide (added to the salt to avoid iodine deficiency disease

of thyroid gland), sugar (added to stabilize iodine and as anti-caking

chemical), and aluminum silicate.

However sodium, in the form of sodium chloride, plays an important part

in the primary processes of digestion and absorption. Salt activates

the first enzyme in the mouth, salivary amylase.

Sodium chloride is used to make hydrochloric acid, a secretion needed

for digestion. Sodium functions best when other minerals, such as

magnesium, calcium and potassium, which are also contained in good

ocean sea salts like Celtic and Himalayan.

We need salt to live. Our own cellular makeup is very similar to sea

water. Much more than a solution of salt water, the ocean's waters

contain a complex combination of minerals and elements. It is this

coincidence that has likely made salt, which is essential to life, the

condiment most used for thousands of years.

" Salt " is actually a chemical term for a substance produced by a

reaction of an acid with a base. The terms, " salt " and " sodium " are

used interchangeably, but technically this is not correct. " Salt " is

sodium chloride. By weight, it is 40% sodium and 60% chloride. Sodium

is an essential nutrient, a mineral that the body cannot manufacture

itself but which is required for life and good health. Human blood

contains 0.9% sodium chloride, or salt -- the same concentration as

found in saline solutions used to cleanse wounds. That coincidence is

why we crave it and why man came to covet it.

Dr. Bernard Jensen, author of Come Alive, stated, " All cellular

structures become alive through electrolytic activity. Life begins with

electrolytes. Trace minerals carry the life force in our bodies more

than any other substance. "

Mineral salts create electrolytes. Electrolytes, often called the spark

of life, are what carry the electrical currents throughout our bodies -

sending messages to the cells in all of the different systems. "

Thank you so much, Bee, for your thorough answer to my question.

Very grateful,

Pain, Swellness and Numbness in my lower extremities

This is crazy but the pain in my buttocks

always tells me if I have a kidney infection or not

Trips to the hospital and doctors - always proved I was right

I explain my butt is hurting so bad - I have a kidney infection

The doctors are baffled - when the results come back that I was right

My buttocks swelled up after getting implants

My buttocks still feels like it's sitting on my back

The pain is mostly in my right butt

The problem is my buttocks hurts all the time.

When the pain gets so bad it hurts to sit down.

I know at that point, I have a kidney infection.

I have on hand and just started taking last night.

Ciprofloxacin HCL 500 mg

Took one tablet last night and one this morning

I can now sit down without my buttocks without it hurting

I am wondering if my symptoms are all kidney related,

knees and all.

I have decided not to put any food in my mouth.

only drinking water for a day or two.

What name brand of Cranberry Juice has no sugar in it ???

Need Your Advice, Opinion or Thoughts

Thank You, Sandy~
