A close relative described it as “the worst pain she’d ever felt”...
\xa0
And according to the National Kidney Foundation – 1 in 10 people will deal with at least one kidney stone in their lifetime.
\xa0
The good news?\xa0
\xa0
With a few small changes, you can stay one step ahead of these excruciatingly painful pebbles
\xa0
Here are some essential do's and don'ts:
\xa0
DON’T hike up calcium intake
\xa0
While it’s essential for bone health, excessive calcium intake can increase the risk of kidney stone formation.
\xa0
DON’T eat oxalates
\xa0
Foods with high oxalate levels can lead to the production of calcium oxalate stones, the most common type of kidney stone…
\xa0
Watch out for foods like spinach, rhubarb, wheat bran, soy, and processed meats.
\xa0
DO flush daily
\xa0
Drink plenty of water throughout the day to flush out stone-forming minerals.
\xa0
Consider adding a splash of apple cider vinegar or lemon juice to your water for an extra kidney-friendly boost.
\xa0
DO stay off the junk
\xa0
High-sodium and high-protein junk foods can increase the risk of kidney stones.
\xa0
Opt for a balanced diet rich in fruits and veggies plus a moderate amount of protein.

Bonus Tip: The Kidney Health Silver Bullet
\xa0
There's one more way to maintain strong kidney health many people never even think of:
\xa0
Vitamins K2 and D3.
\xa0
These essential vitamins do two crucial things for your kidneys:\xa0
\xa0
1. They ensure calcium goes where it’s needed.\xa0
\xa0
D3 absorbs calcium from the digestive tract, and K2 shuttles calcium directly into your bones.
\xa0
2. They keep calcium OUT the places it doesn’t belong.
\xa0
Without K2 and D3, calcium has a way of quickly “wandering off”...
\xa0
Accumulating in other areas of the body like your soft tissue and kidneys.
\xa0
That's why it’s so important to get enough D3 and K2.
\xa0
Not only will they keep your bones strong and durable…
\xa0
They’re your kidney’s best friends – Preventing the buildup of unwanted calcium deposits.

And to help give you a super simple way to harness the power of this all-star nutrient duo…
