Citrus Fruits and Kidney Stones "...lemonade therapy appears to be a reasonable alternative for patients with hypocitraturia who cannot tolerate first line therapy."

Although a terribly small study, let's hope it's a springboard to greater things. One other issue I have with this study is that they don't reveal how much real lemon juice is in their lemonade. 

Permit me to help translate some of the medspeak:

"Citrauric" simply means the amount of citric acid in your urine.

"Nephrolithiasis" is the term for kidney stone formation. 'Nephro' means kidney, as like the medical specialty Nephrology. 'Lith' means stone. Think of 'monolith,' or a large monument carved from a single (mono) rock.

"Hypocitraturia" is a chronically low (below normal) level of citrate in your urine.

Here are excerpts from the study. The full link is found at the end.

"Purpose: Citrus fruits and juices are a known natural source of dietary citrate. Of all the citrus juices, lemon juice appears to have the highest concentration of citrate. Therefore, lemonade therapy has been proposed as a potential treatment for patients with hypocitraturia. We retrospectively evaluated the impact of long-term lemonade therapy on urinary metabolic parameters and stone formation in patients with hypocitraturic nephrolithiasis."

"Conclusions: Due to its significant citraturic effect, lemonade therapy appears to be a reasonable nn.alternative for patients with hypocitraturia who cannot tolerate first line therapy. Future study in the form of a prospective, randomized trial is needed to validate these findings."

  1. My name is Trisha Nelson I had Rectum effect and I was so worried am I going to die soon. I made my search on herbal remedy for rectum effect, then I found lots of testimonies on how Dr James Herbal Medicine cured diseases like Rectum effects, intestine damage, bowel obstruction, Ovarian disease, Cancer, hypothyroidism, Herpes, COPD, HIV,Colon cancer, Arthritis, Lyme disease,Hpv, Infections,Liver Disease, Autoimmune Diseases, Parkinson's disease,Lupus,Nephrology and Hypertension, Neurology, Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Women's Health, Oncology, Pediatrics, Pulmonary, ACUTE MYELOFIBROSIS, ALZHEIMER's symptoms, BREAST CANCER, DIABETES, HAIR LOSS AND HAIR TREATMENT, KIDNEY DISEASES, LEUKEMIA, MYELOID LEUKEMIA, STEM CELL TREATMENT , On websites sharing their testimonies, which made much more sense to me. All the authors pronounce Dr James As a man with Good Heart, I picked interest in their testimonies and I contact him about my situation then he gave me procedure how it works, I proceed after one week he courier his Herbal Medicine to me and instructed me on how to drink it for two weeks to cure. I received His Herbal Medicine so I drank it for two weeks as I was told then after 2 weeks of drinking his medicine, I went for a test I found out I was cured from Rectum effect, I paid homage to his country to celebrate with him on his African festival which he told me it usually happens every year. I know there are lots of diseases denials of Herbal Remedy movement the same few doctors and they represent a very small fraction of the community. I could have died because I refused Natural Herbs Cures for so long, but luckily, by the grace of God I am alive to tell my story.
