Gently Cleanse The Kidneys With Natural Remedies

Many people do not know how important it is to clean the kidneys and keep them healthy. The urinary system can cause many diseases. If you think that the kidneys have the role of removing impurities from your body, you will realize why it is so important to keep them in perfect condition.

Symptoms that indicate the need to clean the kidneys

If your blood pressure is low or too high, if you have abdominal pain and if your urine is dark in color, there may be an imbalance in the excretory system. The same problem can be indicated by excessive thirst or if you go to the bathroom very often during the night.

Other signs that you need to clean your kidneys could be that you urinate less than a liter a day, if you always feel full bladder, if you have pain when urinating. Also, if your ankles swell at night, if your eyes are swollen in the morning, if you wake up with various bruises and bleeding without being hurt.

In any case, the presence of kidney or bladder stones is a sufficient reason to cleanse your kidneys.

How to prevent kidney imbalances

• To prevent an increase in the amount of toxins in your body, it is necessary to control your diet. If the toxins move into the bloodstream, they will no longer be able to be excreted in the urine.
• You can prevent kidney stones and kidney failure by avoiding excessive consumption of salt and processed foods (especially frozen or breadcrumbs).
• Do not consume too many dairy products, especially whole milk.

• Try to reduce the amount of animal protein consumed (meat and eggs). They carry calcium in the urine, which increases the chances of kidney stones. They also contain a large amount of uric acid.
• Avoid consuming alcoholic or high-sugar drinks, as they cause more calcium to be removed from the body.
• Try to adopt a vegetarian diet or rich in natural foods. Include natural fruit and vegetable juices in your diet.
• Consume many foods with diuretic properties: oranges, grapes, lemons, grapefruit, celery, carrots, cucumbers, apples, melon, melon and lettuce.

• Limit the use of medications such as aspirin or ibuprofen.
• Drink large amounts of water daily (two liters in winter and three in summer) so that your urine is almost transparent. It is not good to drink too much water, because you will overload your kidneys.

How to clean your kidneys in three days

This is not a magic solution that promises to “cleanse the kidneys in 72 hours”, but it will help you in this process. For the first three days, you should avoid coffee, alcohol, salt and high-protein products. All these products irritate the kidneys and prevent the elimination of toxins from the bladder.

Try to replace these drinks with mineral water and meat with flax seeds and sunflower, or with almonds.

Start the day with a breakfast containing cranberry juice, which helps reduce the amount of calcium accumulated in the bladder. These sediments slow down the functioning of the kidneys and prevent the elimination of toxins. It also prevents the appearance of urinary tract infections and kidney stones, which are very painful.

In the middle of the morning, drink a glass of juice rich in potassium. It acts as a tonic detoxifier that gives you energy throughout the three days. You can make a juice from carrots, celery, parsley and spinach or you can mix the ingredients in a blender to get a smoothie.

At noon, drink a glass of liquid chlorophyll, a substance that gives plants a green color. It can be found on the ceiling or in health food stores. You can plant grass seeds in a pot, which you cut and add to the blender. Chlorophyll improves the immune system, helps cleanse the blood and offers many other benefits.

Between lunch and dinner, at snack time, drink a glass of watermelon seed tea. This drink has a very mild diuretic effect that contributes to the proper functioning of the kidneys and bladder. Helps better digestion of food and intestinal motility at night.

Don’t forget sports!

Don’t forget to exercise or play a sport during these three days. You can take a 30-minute walk every day for better kidney function. We recommend a visit to the sauna to eliminate toxins through perspiration.

As for main meals, eat what you want, but take into account the recommendation to give up meat in the first three days, as well as flour. Take the opportunity to change your diet. 

At dinner you can also drink a glass of carrot juice to regulate the frequency of urination. You can also drink cranberry juice. Before bed, drink a tea of ​​mint or dandelion leaves. They detoxify the body and help you digest food better at night.

You can also take a hot bath at home, after which you can refresh yourself with a shower with hot or cold water.

And last but not least, the evening and the morning. If you stretch your torso and limbs, you will “activate” your body, giving it more energy to start and face the day in an optimal state.
