Holistic Kidney Cleansing

The kidneys are major organs in the body whose function to rid the body of waste and to regulate the electrolyte and acid content of blood. If there is a problem with any part of the kidneys, it can disrupt your bodily functions and can cause severe illness. One of the best ways to maintain the health of the kidneys is to do a cleanse. A kidney cleanse is something that you can do safely at home by following a few simple guidelines.

  1. Ingredients

    • This process will require you to have certain herbs and roots to make the liquid mixture you need to drink. Most of these ingredients can be found at a health food store or a vitamin store. You will need 65 g each of hydrangea root, gavel root, and marshmallow root. In addition to that, you will need 25 ml of goldenrod tincture, 200 ml of vegetable glycerin, 100 ml of black cherry concentrate, 130 ginger capsules, 42 vitamin B6 tablets, 42 magnesium tablets, and at least 4 bunches of fresh parsley.

    Getting Ready

    • To start this process you will need to prepare several different mixtures. First, soak the roots in 3 L of water using a glass or ceramic bowl. After the roots have soaked for four hours, boil them and add half of the black cherry concentrate. Simmer the mixture for 20 minutes and let cool. Once it has cooled, immediately drink ¼ cup of it and strain the rest into several freezable containers. Store the roots in the refrigerator as this cleanse will take six weeks, so you may need to make more of the solution. (If you do need to make more, only use two liters of water and simmer for 10 minutes.)

      Boil four bunches of parsley in a liter of water for three minutes. Once the liquid has cooled, drink about 60 ml and split the rest evenly into two containers, one for the refrigerator and one for the freezer. As the cleanse goes for 6 weeks, you may run out of this solution. If so, go to the store for more fresh parsley and follow these directions.

    Routine

    • You will be using these mixtures in your daily cleanse routine. Every day, mix together 180 ml of the root mixture, 125 ml of the parsley mixture, 20 drops of the goldenrod tincture and 1 tsp. of the vegetable glycerin. You will drink this mixture in even amounts throughout the day (splitting it in three will work well). Make sure you do not drink it all at once. Also, every day you should take: 1 ginger capsule with each meal, one vitamin B6, and one magnesium.
