How to Drink Onion Juice to Treat Bladder Stones

Often the result of untreated or undiagnosed urological conditions, bladder stones form when minerals and proteins in the urine crystallize. These deposits are usually small and go unnoticed. However, they may cause problems by scratching the bladder wall or obstructing the urinary tract. Men are disproportionately affected, accounting for more than nine out of every ten cases. Drinking onion juice may help to relieve symptoms and treat bladder stones.
