You can easily flush your stone in the urine if you increase your daily fluid consumption. This can be in the form of boiled plain water, coconut water, barley water, unsweetened fruit juices and vegetable juices.

Also follow these home remedies which will help -

  • Cranberry juice works against kidney stones, if you don't like the taste mix equal amounts of apple juice to it for palatability.
  • Include garlic, yoghurt, cabbage and parsley liberally in your daily diet.
  • Grind pomegranate seeds and mix 1tbsp of it in a cup of soup prepared from horse gram. This is a very effective remedy for kidney stones.

 

Depending on the type of stones restrict certain food for some time to avoid its recurrence –

  • Uric acid stone - meat, fish, poultry, lentils, spinach, peas and beans.
  • Calcium oxalate stone - spinach, parsley, celery, tea, strawberries, blueberries, chocolate, grapes and green pepper.
  • Intake of carbonated beverages, coffee, pickles, white flour, salt, sugar, processed foods, alcohol and soda should also be minimized.
