"The first week I started the regime the change was amazing. My energy returned, my skin glowed, the aches and pains and heat (inflammation) in my joints went away (almost all), the gastric reflux stopped. People commented on the change in me. I was amazed at how different and positive I felt. So thank you so much." Susie, Plymouth

"I can't speak highly enough of that man, he changed my life". Doreen, Worcester 

Kidney Stones 

The formation of stones in the urinary tract - kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra - has been recognised for thousands of years. However, during the last few decades the rate and pattern of stone formations has changed. In the past stone formation was almost exclusively in the bladder, whereas today most stones form in the kidney and the upper urinary tract.

The incidence of kidney stones has also been steadily increasing along with the rise in other diseases such as heart disease, gallstones, high blood pressure, diabetes and cancer.

In a healthy individual, urine is saturated with calcium oxalate, uric acid and phosphates. These compounds remain in solution by a balanced body pH (acidity/alkalinity) and the secretion of protective factors and are excreted in the urine. An imbalance results in the formation and build up of crystals which eventually form kidney stones.
Factors which create this imbalance include food allergy/intolerance, pathogenic organisms (bacteria, viruses, fungus/Candida and parasites), toxins such as metals (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury etc), chemicals (pesticides, herbicides, preservatives etc), radiation (DECT phones, mobiles and masts, air travel etc) and drugs (NSAIDs, steroids, the Pill etc). 

The natural treatment of kidney stones is to address the factors which increase the likelihood of their formation as well as to supply all the supplements needed to put the stones back into solution, ease their pain free passage and expulsion and, finally to ensure proper healing. These include amino acids, vitamins, minerals and especially the omega 3 and 6 fatty acids, as well as probiotics, soluble and insoluble fibre from fruits, vegetables and whole grains, not forgetting the importance of water to maintain optimum hydration and dilution of the chemicals which eventually crystallise into kidney stones.

An Integral Health DNA Hair Test not only can identify the cause/causes of an imbalance in the body and the potential for signs and symptoms of disease; we are also able to provide the best nutrient and lifestyle recommendations specifically tailored for each unique individual, helping to ensure they are able to achieve optimum health - naturally.
It is a blueprint for healthy living.
