Another satisfied customer here, 50 y.o. male. I woke up yesterday morning with excruciating pain centered on the lower right flank of my back. I was also not able to urinate as I normally would and the pressure kept building up. After googling a few pages I was able to find the Earth Clinic site and with over two hundred Yeas for the Olive Oil & Lemon Juice treatment I decided to give it a try. I mixed Two Ounces of Extra Virgin Oil with Two Ounces of store brand Lemon Juice concentrate which I was able to keep down. I also took two over the counter Naproxen Sodium pain killers and drank two eight ounce glasses of water.

Within a half of and hour the pain had subsided somewhat although I still couldn't urinate. Throughout the course of the day I took several Hot showers focusing the hot water on my right rear flank. Additionally, I would jump up and down and shake it all about vigorously to dislodge the stone which eventually allowed me to urinate a bit. As the day progressed I would continue to drink more water (some with Lemon Juice added) with the result being that the pressure would build up, the pain would increase and I would return to the hot shower and jump about until I was able to relive myself.

At about 6 PM I drank another 2 Ounces of Olive Oil and 2 ounces of Lemon juice as I was convinced the treatment was working. Approximately a half hour later I threw up. By 8 PM my ability to urinate (almost normally) returned to my great relief and the pain had virtually disappeared. At bedtime I took another two OTC Naproxen Sodium pills just to be sure and over the course of the night I woke up several times to urinate, each time more freely than the last. I woke up this morning pain free and have taken one more shot of the Olive Oil/Lemon Juice mixture just to make sure I'm all cleared out.

This treatment absolutely worked for me and I am very thankful to have found out about it. THANK YOU!!

I used to get kidney stones all the time but by age 50 I was tired of going to hospital being sent home medicated for pain and paying a small fortune for the "treatment". then I learned about squeezing 4 tablespoons of fresh lemon juice and mixing it with an equal amount of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This is to be swallowed all at once and followed by a large glass of water. Usually within 24 hours, the stones will come out on their own while urinating, sometimes broken down into a little pile of what looks like sand. Take this concoction at the first signs of (what is for many of us) the all too familiar lower back pain.

Hello, I see you have multiple yeas; don't know if you even need another, but here goes. My husband was in severe pain (flank pain) I had him try olive oil/lemon juice two tablespoons each, followed by glass of water. Well, thirty minutes later he vomited, and I was the bad guy for sure...then pain went completely away..he passed a stone w/in one day. I am an RN, and when I tried to tell one of my patients about this, I got a puzzled/smirky look from the Dr. that was listening, but I believe in it!

Thanks, Melinda

Just wanted to thank all with there stories of olive oil and lemon juice. I had a 5mm stone x-rayed and found lodged in my ureter on friday afternoon, Doc said it would not pass, so a removal procedure was set up for early monday morning. I found this site at about 10:00pm sunday night (2 hours before my food and drink cut-off of 12:00am). I drank 8oz. of lemon juice and two spoonfuls of canola oil (no olive in house). Pain was almost instantly gone. When I woke up next morning to go to removal procedure a little pain was felt and when Doc talked to me after procedure he couldn't understand where the stone went! I found this site a little late but foward this to friends. thankyou all..

I tried the Olive oil Lemon Juice mix yesterday before going to bed. It WAS hard to get down, I had to chase it with a little food each swallow. I felt yucky, so I went on to bed. When I woke the pain had dulled WAY down!!! It was like I was myself again!!! I am a mother of 3 small children, and am also 7 mths pregnant, so the pain being dulled was huge for me! A BIG FAT YEA from me!!! I advice anyone to try this nasty mix! IT WORKS!!!!!!! I tried it again tonight, but the smell of the oil made me vomit it back up with my first swallow. Be sure and chase it down with some solid food, and at least 3 8oz glasses of water if your trying this. But WOW was it ever worth it!!!!! TY to everyone who posted this remedy!!!!! GOD BLESS!!!

A huge "YEA" to this remedy,

2 oz olive oil and 2 oz. lemon juice for Kidney Stones/Pain.

If you are reading this try it, it works like a charm.

I had kidney pain/stones and in severe pain for 3 weeks and was desperate, severe pain for three weeks.

Although I completely doubted what the simple and safe olive oil and lemon juice mix could possibly have to do with your kidneys, with the many positive ratings I decided to try it.

I drank about 1.5 oz. olive oil and 2 oz. of fresh lemon juice mixed, very important to "mix" so it wont taste too bad.

Results: I felt a little nausea about an hour later.

Then a strange creepy feeling in my gut about 3 hrs later, it felt like "Alien" in my kidneys, I even felt something moving in my good kidney on the other side.

Then I had strange repeated urges to piss.

I didn't piss a stone that I know of, but my chronic 3 weeks of severe kidney pain disappeared ! I could barely get out of bed the day before, and the next mourning was pain free !

Since I took only one dose and had "miraculous" results, I will definitely repeat in a day or two to finish the job.

If you have pain anywhere near Kidneys, TRY THIS FIRST.

It WORKS MAGIC ON KIDNEY STONES !!!

It is basically salad dressing, how it has such an effect on your kidneys I don't know, but trust me it works !

Beats the heck out of paying the ER for painkillers and a surgery!

The 2 oz lemon and 2 oz olive oil works. I tried it 2 hours ago and captured the stones just now. No pain.

I took some lemon with water the first night after the excrutiating pain without knowing what it was and I was well the whole day. The second night I tried the lemon but went to the ER. They gave me a lot of pain medication, idetified the size (4 mm) and sent me to the urologist. He recommended the ESWL treatment and I did it. I would have preffered to do the lemon and olive oil treatment first. I use to sell chemicals to prevent calcium oxalate deposits in paper mills and citric acid (a component of lemon juice) was used very often. There is science behind it.

Olive Oil and Lemon Juice

6mm stone and I couldn't believe that this really worked on it. I went to the hospital 2:00PM yesterday they did a CAT scan and told my I had a 6mm (1/4") kidney stone. Felt like I was having labor pains & sick to my stomach couldn't keep anything down, one minute I would be sweating the next I would be freezing, absolutely could not be still, excruciating pain, it started about 6:00AM that morning in my lower left back moving around to my left side then to left front then it just stopped. I had one about 3 years ago a 2mm one, so I figured that I knew what it was. When it didn't move for 4 hours I went to the hospital, they put an IV in gave me some pain & nausea meds. did the CAT scan and sent me home with my little screen pan to tinkle in and watch for stone.They said I might pass it and I might not since it was that large. I had to take pain meds. every 3 hours to keep the pain down. I saw this web site this evening and mixed me up 2oz lemon juice and 2 oz olive oil (gross), I had to hold my nose to drink it, I also drank 4-10oz glasses of water right after. Within 2 hours I passed the stone it was 1/4 inch oval. YEA! Thank you so much for this web site I'll be back and I'll tell all my friends about it.

My adult son was suffering from a kidney stone causing blockage resulting in continual pain and difficult and painful urination. Due to a job change and some paper work mix up he is temporarily (we hope) without health insurance and I think he would be close to death before he would get medical attention. Anyway, I discovered your web site and encouraged him to try the lemon juice/olive oil remedy. He took two ounces of lemon juice with two ounces of olive oil two or three times about eight hours apart. About 24 hours after the first dose something changed a bit and although there was still pain, he was able to urinate more freely. After two days, he could tell that the stone had moved a couple inches and on the third day he passed the stone without further pain. Of course we are not completely sure that this was the result of the remedy, but I will surely try it myself if the need arises. Myself and three chidren have all had kidney stones in the past and had them removed by doctors. Those removal procedures were very painful themselves and I will avoid them if possible

I used the lemon juice/olive oil remedy for kidney stones. An hour or so after the pain set in I drank a mixture of 1/4 cup Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil and cheap lemon juice concentrate (the kind tht comes in the plastic bottle shaped like a lemon). I had to add 1/4 cup of orange juice to balance the acidity (it was too much even with my nose plugged) and 2 ice cubes because the lukewarm temperature was distasteful to me. I followed this with about 16 ounces of purified water (reverse osmosis). The pain resumed. About 2 hours later I did the "bump exercise" from this website. http://www.jumpandbump.com/
I followed the directions and after about the 10th set of "bumps" I immediately felt relief and the urge to urinate. I passed a small, soft, almost mucousy mass about the size of an eraser and then more smaller pieces the next time I urinated. I have felt perfectly normal since. I think that maybe the oo/lemon juice mixture worked on breaking down the stone and then the exercise helped move it down more quickly? I don't know for sure but I felt like I was in active labor, with pain wrapping from my kidney to my abdomen and within hours of ingesting the remedy and moments of completing the instructions on the previously mentioned website I was finally able to release a respectable amount of pee and have felt perfectly normal ever since!!!

Lemon + olive oil = Its works

Yea... I woke up on 13/7/09 and felt severe pain at my left lower back. I was on my way to exercise and had to return home because of the pain. At midnight the pain became unbearable and I went to the A&E. They tested my urine and suspected me of having kidney stones. I was then sent home and given two boxes of pain relief and asked to see a specialist ..appt fixed at two weeks later.

Because of the long queue , i couldn't wait any more, I was in deep pain. I saw a private specialist the next day, and was given a x ray and CT scan immediately. That cause me s$500. The urologist confirmed from the scan that I had a 3mm stone causing me the pain.

I was asked to go back and drink a lot of water and continued with the pain killers and wait for the stone to pass out..

I am at a loss..don't know what to do... medically it doesn't seem to help me...I was also worried about the high cost of surgery. I search the web for information. I came to this site, and tried out the lemon juice and olive oil cocktail.

After taking a few doses (once a day) .... the pain is greatly reduced... few days later the pain is gone.I also drink apple juice to soften the stones.

I did pass out some sandy particles and feel that my urine flow is much stronger and light coloured now. I begin to increase my intake of water daily and now feel so much better. I already stop all the medication.

A very sincere thanks to you guys and gals for sharing such a valuable information.

Try the lemon juice and olive oil cocktail if you have kidney stones...If u are afraid at least try one OZ lemon and one OZ olive oil ...just try out..

May all sentient beings be free from pain and suffering....

lemon/olive oil cure

Woke up last week and discovered blood in my urine. No pain but the copious blood was startling. Two days later woke up with severe pain in left lower back. Found myself hyperventilating and exhibiting diaphoresis.At this point knew I had a stone, the pain was similar to what I experienced before passing a stone in 1989. The pain was unbearable, I resorted to drinking several litres of purified water, but only passed blood tinged liquid.

Finally I passed two rice sized particles, did not think they were stones since they did not look at all like what I excreted in 1989. Immediately felt better but was still passing lots of blood urinating. Woke up on day three of this ordeal with serious back pain and the inability to void. Desperate, went to this site and started taking the olive oil/lemon juice concoction. Retired to the bed for two and a half hours, felt a "kick" in my lower back. Went to the toilet and voided three more rice size particles. Pain returned, unfortunately, and tried another four ounces of the "cure". Had to urinate an hour later and passed two more rice sized granules. This time, however, there was no blood in the urine! Felt immediate relief which has lasted until today - a week later. Still voiding normally and am optimistic that I've dodged another bullet, or at least a stone! Good luck to my fellow sufferers, give this remedy a try, I'll be eternally grateful I looked up this site on the internet.

My husband was recently suffering from a kidney stone. The doctor said it was 5mm and needed to be removed via surgery. It had been stuck between his kidney and bladder for two weeks. He only suffered pain on two of those days, but when he did it was very intense.

In an effort to avoid sugery, and the cost associated with it, we turned to home remedies. First we tried the 2 oz. olive oil with 2 oz. lime juice. He took this about 3 or 4 times a day for two days. On the third day we added a mixture of 2 tbls. of olive oil, the juice of a 1 inch piece of fresh aloe, and 4 or 5 chunks of fresh pineapple. We blended it together and he drank it twice a day. This is a remedy his mother suggested that is used in her native country, El Salvador.

On the third day of using the olive oil and lime juice, and just one day after starting the Salvadorean home remedy, my husband passed his stone without pain. It was just like the other people on this website reported. We couldn't be happier with the outcome!

Yea! This is the second time I have had to use the lemon juice/olive oil mixture. I used ita couple of years ago and passed several stones. I started having problems a few weeks ago with stones and started using the mixture again. I think I have passes 4 or 5 stones this time on my right side. I must be getting used to the pain because it doesn't hut as bad as my first one more than 15 years ago. It seems like I have a problem about every two years or so. I am going to drink a mixture of the lemon juice/olive oil once a week just to keep myself cleaned out.
