Try the following simple remedies for kidney stones -

  • Small sized kidney stones can be easily eliminated by drinking lots of fluids. This can be achieved by including water, barley water, coconut water, and fruit juices in the day.
  • Drink cranberry juice, as the acidic content in this juice discourages the formation of calcium oxalate stones (the most common type of stones) in our body.
  • Decrease the consumption of oxalic acid foods the diet which include spinach, tea, coffee, cocoa, celery, beans, beets and strawberries.
  • Minimize your salt consumption, mainly foods like pickles, salted meats, sausages, pork, and canned, processed and refined foods.
  • If you have uric acid stones, avoid purine rich foods which include lentils, peas, meat, fish, organ meats, poultry, fish and spinach.  
  • Be physically active, as formation of calcium oxalate stones is comparatively high in inactive individuals.

If your stones are large in size then you might need to go in for invasive methods for treatment as home remedies alone would not be enough to solve your problem.
