Stop Kidney Stones Before They Start — Do This Daily | Dr. Mandell

#Health #Kidney stones
Kidney stones don’t just “appear” out of nowhere, they form when your urine becomes too concentrated and minerals like calcium, oxalate, and uric acid begin to crystallize and stick together. But here’s what most people don’t realize, it’s not just about what you eat, it’s about how your body processes fluids, your hydration levels throughout the day, and the natural inhibitors in your urine like citrate that help prevent those crystals from forming. In this video, I break down the real physiological reasons kidney stones develop, including the role of dehydration, dietary imbalances, and metabolic factors, and more importantly, how you can prevent them in a simple, natural way. You’ll learn why consistent hydration matters more than occasional water intake, how lemon and citrus can help increase citrate levels, and what small daily habits can make a powerful difference in protecting your kidneys long-term. If you’ve ever had a kidney stone, you know how painful they can be, and if you haven’t, this is the knowledge that can help you avoid them completely.
