hey dr. Berg here in this video I’m going to show you how to get rid of

kidney stones many years ago I personally had kidney

stones and I will never forget how much pain that is so it’s excruciating so I’m

going to show you first of all what causes them and then what to do about

them first of all in the blood with the chemistry in your body if it’s not right

you can set your body up to build build up the crystals of calcium they’re

called oxalate stones it’s a combination of oxalates in calcium so there are

other causes there’s other types of stones but the most common one is the

calcium oxalate stones and that has to do with in your blood you have low

citrates and basically citrates help you prevent kidney stones they help

combine with excess calcium and remove it safely from the body so if you don’t

have citrates what will happen and you’ll start to build up more crystals that

develop in the tiny little tubules of your kidney and develop stones okay and

the number 2 high oxalate foods now what foods are high oxalate number 1 dark

beer cruciferous which I recommend like kale broccoli Brussels sprouts cabbage

chocolate fruit soy beans beets spinach and all these are high in oxalate so the

combination of this and this is not good but then if you’re taking anti acids

that’s a problem especially if it’s calcium based because you’re driving and

a lot of calcium into the body that it can’t deal with so it’s going to get

stuck in the kidney and that’s a soft tissue calcium that builds up and then

calcium itself calcium supplements you want to make sure you never consumed

calcium carbonate in your body so you want to look at your vitamins and see is

the ingredients calcium carbonate that’s the worst type of calcium that’s like

taking rocks you’d be better off chewing on the cement outside because it’s

basically just like oyster shells or it’s not sending our body can digest

easily there’s like 12 steps it takes to be able to assimilate

and for most people it just gets stuck in the in the in your kidney so we don’t

recommend taking a lot of calcium and just as a side note about calcium if you

are menopausal and you’re female and you want to prevent osteoporosis and maybe

you have high blood pressure you have any type of soft-tissue calcium like

stiffness I created a video on that one thing soft tissue calcium it’s very

important you can click below and find it it’s about vitamin k2 very important

to kind of remove the excess calcium so we have calcium which is a whole

different topic and then sugar sugar depletes excess calcium and that can go

through the kidney out of the blood and get stuck in your kidney too so sugar is

not a good combination and then sodium now sodium chloride that would be salt

but I’m not talking about sea salt I’m talking about sodium just in the junk

food that people eat growing up I was a teenager I would consume a bag of

Doritos in one sitting the mega huge packs and of course that was way too

much sodium and that can create a problem and also hidden sodium is

monosodium glutamate so the combination is not good to develop stones to prevent

stones here’s what you do about it it’s very very simple we want to increase our

citrates by consuming citric acid from lemon juice okay go to the health food

store and get lemon juice get the if you can get the organic lemon juice that

would be really really good that just has lemon and water that would be

awesome and you want to consume like 1 to 3 tablespoons of lemon juice in your

water throughout the day ok you can do lime juice if you want and I like to add

a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar to that just to put that additional factor

into your drink to really help clean out any calcium that builds up so the

combination of lemon and apple cider vinegar with water is really good to

prevent and also fix kidney stones if you have them all right and then if you

have any of these issues too you might need to fix your stomach I have videos

tissue calcium and how to get rid of your

sugar cravings so I have a lot of other videos so if you found this beneficial
