Hydrate To Help Avoid Kidney Stones
There are few things in life that are as painful as passing a kidney stone. Some people are prone to kidney stones and others will never get one — but for the most part, kidney stones have to do with a lot of environmental and dietary factors. In addition to some risk factors, such as an overabundance of certain minerals, dehydration can also play a substantial role.
What is a Kidney Stone?
There are multiple types of kidney stone: calcium, struvite, uric acid, and cystine. The purpose of the kidney is to filter water before it passes through an individual’s body. When there are high concentrations of certain types of minerals, these stones are going to form. Once the stones have formed, they either need to be passed down the urinary tract or (in severe cases) surgically removed.
What Causes a Kidney Stone?
Kidney stones have many contributing factors, such as the consumption of red meats. But drinking coffee and drinking soda can also be harmful — not because of the ingredients themselves, but because they naturally dehydrate a person’s body. When someone is dehydrated, they are far more likely to develop kidney stones. By diluting the minerals appropriately and flushing out your system regularly, you can avoid the mineral build
up that would ultimately lead to a kidney stone or other related issues. Whether you’ve already experienced recurring kidney stones or you’re hoping to never get one, the time to act is now. By increasing your hydration levels on a regular basis, you can avoid the potential for getting (and having to pass) a kidney stone substantially.
