Kidney Stone Prevention - What You Can Do To Prevent Kidney Stones

Nothing can ruin your day like a good 'ol fashioned kidney stone! Anyone who has ever had one (or more) will do anything to prevent them again. Kidney stones are actually quite easy to prevent, due to the fact that most are composed of calcium oxalate, a chemical compound that forms crystals.

So what can you do to prevent the formation of kidney stones? Here's a few tips:


  • More Water...
    Drinking plenty of water (approximately 2 liters per day), will help flush kidney stones before they become large enough to cause problems. You'll know if you're drinking enough water when your urine is light yellow or clear. This is great for people who are prone to kidney stone development.


  • ...Less Salt!
    Studies have shown that high amounts of sodium (3,500mg/day or more) increase the calcium excreted in your urine. It's okay to add a little extra salt to your food, provided that what you're eating isn't already high in sodium to begin with. Take a couple seconds to read the label to figure out how much sodium you're going to be taking in.

  • More Magnesium!
    While calcium is essential for every person, young and old, you should not consume large amounts of calcium without magnesium. Magnesium is used to offset the excess calcium which can cause calcium deposits or kidney stones. The rule of thumb here is that you should have 30% to 50% of magnesium as you do calcium. For example, if you take 1000mg of calcium, you should have 300-500mg of magnesium.

Don't wait for a kidney stone to develop to change your diet, these small changes can make a huge difference.
