Kidneys and Bladder Health

Recommended supplementation and lifestyle changes (not meant as a diagnosis or to replace the advice of a health care practitioner):

DOCTOR’S A-Z food supplementation: Kidney Health (1BID), Noni liquid ((2 TBSP + w/ H2O on empty stomach TID), Flax oil Liquid (1TBSP w/ meals TID), Immune Health (1 BID) (note preventing infection is important and may add Cranberry advanced (1+ TID) &/or CranMax (1 BID)

Or BIOTIC’S food supplementation: 2 Renal Plus (3x each day)
2 Flax Seed Oil (3x each day)

If kidney stones are an issue, add the following:
2 B6 Phosphate (3x each day)
2 Mg-Zyme (3x each day)

If repeated urinary tract infections are an issue, add the following:
2 drops Bio-Ae-Mulsion (3x each day for one week only)
1 Bio-C Plus (3x each day)
1 teaspoon IAG (3x each day) Dissolved in liquid
2 ADP (With meals for 2 weeks)

· Avoid caffeine, alcohol and other liquids that act as diuretics: These stress the kidney.
· A diet that is high in antioxidants will help protect the urinary tract. Foods like green leafy vegetables are high in antioxidants.
· Adequate vitamin A in the diet will help protect the mucus membranes. Vitamin A can be found in organ meats and in yellow vegetables. Vitamin A is also good for support of the immune system.
· Get adequate essential fatty acids and strictly avoid hydrogenated oils: Avoiding hydrogenated oils will help to ensure health of the cell membranes.
· Avoid chemical additives in commercially prepared foods: Some additives and food colorings have been shown to damage kidneys in animal studies. Consuming chemicals make the body work to eliminate them.
· Pineapple and cranberry juice are high in mannose which prevents invading bacteria from binding to the membranes of the urinary tract.
