I am 22 yo male and i am diagnosed with kidney stone of 4. 4 mm. I am taking medication properly but there are a lot of contradictions on what to eat and not to eat while having a kidney stone. The doctor told me that it will pass within 2 months but as it is of recurring nature i don't want to take any food which increases its chances of recurring. Please help me to deal with this. Thank you in advance.

Kidneys are one of the 5 major excretory organs with a vital function in the body. They clean the blood atleast 300 times per hr. They excrete the metabolic waste from the blood including medicines and bad food wastes. People who consume meds stimulants like tea coffee tax their kidneys considerably. Wastes like urea Uric acid creatinin and byproduct’s of metabolic waste from excess proteins , excess salts, excess sugar ( due to sugar or carb metabolism that did not get used by the cells in cases of diabetes and glycosuria( expelling glucose from urine), excess acids from the blood that was generated to keep the blood alkaline, bad habits like excess water everything is expelled by the kidneys. 

Due to wrong living habits over a long period of time, kidneys filters gets clogged and inflamed and develop congestion. If you don’t wash your tea filter, then imagine what happens to your tea? It remains outside the filter and can’t be filtered to the mug. To remove that plaque, you need to take extra steps isn’t it? So you have a lot of waste in the blood that is constantly getting collected and poor filters are still working. If uou continue your current living habits of food medicines or various aspects like this, it can lead to CKD or chronic kidney disease and in such cases dialysis will be the only way bcoz a machine will need to filter the blood and be sent back to the body bcoz the kidney have lost their ability to filter. God has been very graceful and gave us 2, but we have been misusing his generosity. It’s very important that you realise that your lifestyle has to change drastically - 180degree ulta direction to recover from this condition and it’s definitely possible. We hardly have cases who have naturally recovered from a dialysis level, but we do have people who have recovered from stones. .

So like I said kidneys gets inflamed ( swollen ) and bleeding can also happen. Stones and other injuries are common.

This is an occurrence where the inhibitors of the formation of crystals are not present or have been less because of living conditions. So this pebble-like concentration is usually composed of mineral salts. Such people in the initial stages if their urine was collected as a sample would have found pus and blood also. Gravels can also be seen. It’s not an overnight symptom when you experience this even for the first time. Stones have continued to become larger and larger. In many cases, these are passed via the bladder. Until it reaches the bladder there is a pain and once it’s in the bladder pain reduces. Sometimes if lifestyle is not changed the stone can become bigger and bigger to even come to the badder. These damage the mucosa lining in the kidneys .

Getting to remove the stones via lithotripsy or dissolving it or via surgery is violent ways of addressing the problem because the body condition is still capable of producing stones because the blood is still toxic and thick. Many such methods of removing the stones Can leave behind some residue that can poke and damage the walls of the ureter pipe too.

Food changes

Tomato is not bad even if it has oxalis acid and even if medical doc says calcium oxalate is bad. Same with spinach. Plant based minerals don’t harm the kidneys as opposed to man made junk in which oxalate could be present such as chocolates. Avoid stimulants like hing too. Adviced to avoid pain meds and bear the pains while this treatment is on bcoz even meds come back to the kidneys to get filtered and we are trying to remove the old meds and such junk. So adding more is adding fuel to the fire. 

Please be on the following juices - don’t take too much water to overload the system. But advices to stay only on natural juices and tender coconut or juices ground in tender coconut and filtered such as below. 

Please have cucumber / kaakdi + Karela or bittergourd + tomato mix juice once a day say 100ml in the morning 

Juice of ash gourd / Durva grass ( used for Ganesh Pooja ) , banana stem / bilwa leaf . 

Soft fruits 

Alternate cold and hot pack for sometime and then cold pack must be given at the end of it all together for 20-30mins

The above is till all the pains subsides for 1-2 days. 

After that, avoid meat diary ( milk tea coffee curd ghee paneer cheese butter ) sugar jaggery salt ( use moderately in cooked only) , outside packaged foods, sweets , oily foods , maida, refined oils , white rice , unpolished foods, wheat , maida 

Start with a green leafy juice mixed with a watery vegetable like cucumber or ashgourd in the morning with ginger and lime- one big glass say 200ml 

Fruits for breakfast till 12. 

Vegetable salads with lots of greens and no nuts for lunch 

Mildly spiced cooked gluten free oil free meal 30% grains and 70% veggies. 

You will be better once this is done
