Kidney stones are also known as nephrolithiasis, renal calculi, or urolithiasis. They are mineral and salt deposits that grow inside your kidneys. This happens when there is excess waste in your blood, and your body is unable to produce enough urine. Kidney stones can range in size from a grain of sand to a golf ball.

 

A kidney stone can affect anyone, though some people are more susceptible than others. Men are more likely than women to have kidney stones. Non-Hispanic white people are also more likely to have kidney stones than other ethnicities.

Kidney stone symptoms

If you have a small kidney stone that effortlessly passes through your urinary tract, you may not experience any symptoms and never realize you have one.

⦁ Urinary discomfort

⦁ Urine with blood in it

⦁ Searing pain in your back or lower abdomen  

⦁ Vomiting and nausea

 

How can I prevent kidney stones?

Minor changes to your existing food and nutrition plan can help prevent kidney stones. Keep yourself hydrated: The simplest way to avoid kidney stones is to drink more water.  You will urinate less if you don't drink sufficient water. Your urine becomes more concentrated and less likely to break down urinary salts, leading to stones.  

Orange juice and lemonade are other excellent choices. They both include citrate, which may help avoid the formation of stones.

Look at the color of your urine to see whether you are dehydrated; it should be clear or pale yellow. If it is dark in color, you should drink more water.

 

Increase your calcium intake: The calcium oxalate stone is the most frequent type of kidney stone, causing some people to think they should avoid calcium. The inverse is true. Low-calcium diets can raise your risk of kidney stones and osteoporosis.

Calcium-rich foods include low-fat milk, low-fat yogurt, and low-fat cheese. Green leafy vegetables like kale, spinach, collard greens, and turnips are also rich in calcium.

calcium intake

 

Consume less sodium: Kidney stones are more common in people who eat a diet high in salt. Excess salt in the urine restricts calcium from being absorbed back into the blood. This results in a high calcium level in the urine, which can cause kidney stones.

 

High-sodium foods include the following:

⦁ Processed foods like crisps and crackers

⦁ Canned soups and vegetables

⦁ Condiments or sauces

⦁ Meats that have been precooked or processed

⦁ Foods containing sodium nitrate  

⦁ Foods containing monosodium glutamate

⦁ Foods containing sodium bicarbonate (baking soda)

 

 

Limit oxalate-rich foods: Oxalate, a natural chemical found in meals, forms kidney stones when it binds with calcium in the urine. Keeping oxalate-rich foods to a minimum may help avoid the formation of stones.

 

Examples of foods high in oxalates:

⦁ Spinach

⦁ Sweet potatoes

⦁ Chocolate

⦁ Coffee  

⦁ Peanuts

⦁ Beets

⦁ Rhubarb

Limit oxalate-rich foods

 

Reduce animal protein: Animal protein-rich foods are acidic, leading to an increase in urine acidity. Uric acid and calcium oxalate kidney stones can be caused by high urine acid.

Avoid or limit intake of

⦁ Beef

⦁ Fish

⦁ Pork

⦁ Poultry

 

 

Vitamin C supplements should be avoided: Vitamin C supplements can lead to kidney stones, particularly in men.  

Men have a twofold increased chance of developing a kidney stone. Vitamin C from food, according to researchers, does not pose the same risk.
