UTI and kidney stone treatment

The most popular home remedy for UTI is cranberry juice. If you can get fresh cranberries, it would be the best thing, but processed will also do. Baking soda is supposed to help kill the infection, so make sure you add a pinch of it to whatever you eat.


A more effective way of making it run through your system would be to have a glass of water with half a teaspoon of baking soda mixed in it. However, this is not very palatable. You must consume about 10 liters of water a day.


Boost your immunity and fight infections with added doses of vitamin C to your diet. The richest source of this is Indian gooseberries (Indian gooseberry). If you can find them fresh, that would work wonders, otherwise, they are available in powder form. Consume a minimum of two teaspoons a day. Increase yogurt intake. The live bacteria play a role in eliminating infection. Drink hot milk with turmeric every night before going to bed. Wash genital area regularly with warm soapy water, moving from up to down and NOT in reverse. Cleanse it thoroughly with antiseptic solution. Diluted hydrogen peroxide can be used for this purpose. Avoid carbonated drinks, since these have a tendency to aggravate discomfort in this condition. For kidney stones, plenty of vegetable juice will help considerably. Concentrate especially on cucumber, radish and celery.
