Kidney CleanseEach year, more than three million Americans suffer from some type of kidney condition, including kidney stones, a kidney infection, renal failure or cancer. Some statistics show that you have a one in 10 chance of developing a kidney stone during your lifetime. Current research indicates that some of these kidney ailments could be avoided with proper nutrition, hydration and the occasional kidney cleanse.
A healthy person has two kidneys, each one measuring about the size of a fist. The kidneys are located in the middle of the back on either side of the spine, just below the rib cage. These small yet vital organs filter your blood to remove waste products and extra water from your body. Kidneys perform other functions, including regulating your blood pressure, keeping the acid/base concentration of your blood constant, and stimulating the creation of red blood cells.
Keep the Flow Going
If you don't regularly consume enough water throughout the day, your kidneys are unable to function appropriately. Stones in the liver and gall bladder can also cause kidney problems as well. Urinary components can crystallize, forming stones in the kidney, which can be excruciatingly painful to pass.
A kidney cleanse is typically performed to thoroughly flush the kidneys. Kidney cleanses can consist of herbal teas or juices, and usually require the individual to drink large quantities of fluid during a kidney cleanse. For more information about how you can keep your kidneys in tip-top shape, schedule a comprehensive health consultation with an experienced integrative healer like Andreas Moritz. Additionally, Ener-Chi Art is available to complement your kidney cleanse.
