One of the most vital organs of the body is the kidney. The main function of the kidney is to cleanse the blood from impurities, filter all the toxins and flush them out. If the kidney does not function properly, it effect the body’s function. Our body is usually used to being dumped with highly preservative food and it is generally exposed to environmental pollution which in turn result in excess toxins in the body. And, if the kidney and liver are over burdened with cleansing the toxins they can become weak. In order to avoid that, a natural kidney clean is recommended so that the kidney can work efficiently and at the same time keep the urinary and bladder infections at bay.
The Kidney Cleanse: Here are a few steps that can be followed for a kidney cleanse.
- The first step to do before starting a kidney cleanse is to clear your diet. Exclude all the processed foods. Reduce the intake of caffeine, fat and sugar. Replace them with organic foods like fruits, vegetables, meat, fish and pulses. This diet regime has to be followed for a minimum of three to four weeks.
- The herb hydrangea is considered to be very beneficial for cleansing the kidney and the liver. This hydrangea root is easily available at good health food stores. In one quart of organic apple juice, soak this root for about 12 hours.
- After the 12 hours, boil the apple juice and hydrangea root and simmer it for 30 minutes. Once it cools off, strain the juice and remove the roots. Pour this juice in to a bottle with a tight lid. For about three weeks, drink this juice at least three to four times a day.
- Another herb that you can use is the gravel root. This is also a very good kidney cleansing herb and is easily available in any health food stores.
- It is important that you monitor kidney cleanse. Keep checking your progress. During the first three weeks of the cleanse, if there are any stones they would get dissolved and usually it may not be realised.
To make your natural kidney cleanse more effective, you can also add ginger root and cayenne pepper to your regiment. This will improve the cleansing process.
