The Kidney Cleanse

The kidney cleanse regimen was created by Dr. Huda Clark, a doctor specializing in body detoxification recipes. According to Dr. Clark, "You need to cleanse your body of parasites, bacteria, viruses and fortify your organs, such as the kidneys and liver by cleansing them." If you are experiencing problems with your kidneys, such as kidney stones, kidney sludge, kidney pain, or are feeling generally lethargic and tired, you may benefit from the kidney cleanse diet as outlined by Dr. Clark.

Preparing the Kidney Cleanse Diet

• Purchase the following ingredients at a health food store. Use organic products if possible.

  1/2 cup dried hydrangea root
  1/2 cup marshmallow root
  1/2 cup gravel root
  4 bunches fresh parsley
  8 ounces black cherry concentrate

  Take 1/2 of the marshmallow root, the gravel root and the hydrangea root and soak them in 10 cups of water overnight. Add the cherry concentrate to the mixture. Heat the mixture until it boils, and simmer for 20 minutes. When it cools, drink 1/4 cup of it. Strain the rest and put the liquid in the refrigerator. Wash the parsley twice thoroughly, then place in 1 quart of water. Heat until it boils, then boil for five minutes. When it is cool enough, drink 1/4 cup of the mixture, remove the parsley and refrigerate the liquid.

Dosage Information

• Every morning, remove 3/4 cup of the first root mixture and 1/2 cup of the second parsley mixture and mix them together in a drinking cup or thermos. Drink this mixture slowly throughout the day. If you drink the entire mixture right away, you may feel digestion problems and pressure in your stomach, so take it slowly and drink it as you feel comfortable. Most likely, you will not like the taste of the mixture, but it is important that you finish the mixture every day. If you have a sensitive stomach or feel nauseated, drink only half as much for the first week. After three weeks, remake the recipe and throw the old liquid out. Continue this cleansing diet for six weeks total.

Additional Supplements to Take

• Along with the kidney cleanse, take two ginger capsules with each meal, or six a day, two Uva Ursi capsules with each meal, or six a day, one vitamin B6 caplet a day, and 300 milligrams of magnesium oxide per day. Take each vitamin dose with a full glass of water so it will be fully be absorbed into your system. Continue taking these vitamins for six weeks.
