Kidney stones are no laughing matter. These build ups in your body cause extreme pain and can even cause a blockage of urine flow. And while the only true way to get rid of stones is to pass them, there are remedies out there that can soothe the pain and help speed up the body’s natural healing process.

Here’s what Global Healing Center you should do at the first sign of stone pain:

1. Combine 2 ounces of organic olive oil with 2 ounces of organic lemon juice. Drink this mixture straight, followed by 12 ounces of purified water.
2. Wait 30 minutes, then squeeze the juice of half an organic lemon into 12 ounces of purified water. add 1 tablespoon of organic raw apple cider vinegar and drink.
3. Repeat the lemon juice, water and apple cider vinegar recipe every hour until symptoms improve.

Note: if the apple cider mixture is too bitter for you, we’d recommend adding a little bit of honey to make it easier to drink.
