Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

Olive oil and lemon juice mix. I read this board several times and have decided to try it. A few years ago, I was in a car accident and had some pretty nasty lower back pains. While I don't think the two we're related...the x-rays showed I had a pretty good sized stone(I think it was 8mm) I had lithotripsy done and never really felt 100%. On and off through the years... I'd get pain. Earlier this year, I could not believe the pain I had. I left my job and drove myself to the E.R. Sure enough, I had blood in my urine and a stone was trying to pass. Hard to believe in three years time a 7mm stone re-formed. Needless to say, in the following days, I drank water and even tried cranberry juice like mad. A few days went by(The Dr prescribed flo-max and I stayed home for a few days) and sure enough, I passed a stone while on the job pain free. It's now December and I've had a few pain free passings of these little buggers. Up until this morning. I think one is trying to get out, so I re-freshed this board, mixed up some olive oil and lemon juice (God that stuff tastes awful!) and downed it. Followed by three glasses of water. I'm keeping my fingers crossed it passes pain free. Thanks for sharing the info on this site!

Guys This works..It really Works..You cant imagine how relieved I'am..Thx a million to this site and all others who shared their experiences..Actually other user stories on this site kept me believed and also gave me strength in my last few very difficult days..
I had sudden severe pain in my right abdomninal area last wednesday..I was unable to figure out what was happening as i never experienced pain like that in my life..Believe me its horrible...I was rushed into emergency section and after CT scan they have confirmed i got a kidney stone..I was scared of surgery which is scheduled for next week but luckily I found this site...
3oz LEMON juice + 3oz OlIVE oil is the magic formula..Initially i had only 1 oz lemon+1 oz olive (2 times a day)for 3 days but it didnt work...so I took 3oz lemon + 3ozOlive this morning and guess what with in 4 hours I passed the dark brown stone of size 3mm..huffff..what a relief...
Guys you are not losing anything if it doesnt work but trust me its worth giving a try..GOOD LUCK..

Kideny stones/kidney debris.
The lemon juice (2 oz), olive oil (2 Tbsp,) and Stone Free from Planetary Herbals, Michael Tierra (5 the first 3 days, 4 times a day; now 3 tablets 3 times a day with the lemon juice and oil) has changed my life. The back pain I had put off to my scoliosis, and the groin pain from sitting for college classes, however, when they both came on together and persisted for 6 weeks my daily life became really overwhelming. I got relief from both within 36 hours from the above combination. Now, 2 weeks later I get twinges in my back and groin but water keeps the above combination keeps pain from returning. However, in continuing with the lemon juice, olive oil, Stone free, physical activity and hot baths I realize had this condition for a long time. I think I have had blockage in my bladder (the groin pain) from having a seven year bout with food poisoning and just plain lowered functioning kidneys from my scoliosis. These last two weeks have removed the acute pain and although I still have a dull ache especially in the morning, I am going to keep this in my daily/weekly regime. I am sleeping better and am way more relaxed. Thank you for your web site as I had spent several hundred dollars with X-rays (that showed nothing), body work, PT, and even seeing an orthopedic surgeon. I love natural healing.

I have no experience with Kidney pain except for the last four weeks. I have had pain in my middle left back for weeks and was growing very concerned. In surfing the web, I found this sight and read about the Olive Oil and Lemon Juice remeday. Bottom line, my pain is GONE. I took two ounces of fresh lemon juice and two ounces of raw olive oil twice a day. One in the AM and one in the PM. Day one I feld absolutely no relief. Day two, no realief what so ever. Day three, I woke up and was very amazed that I had no pain. I drank my "cocktail" and got on with my day. No pain all day. WOW. So here I am in day four feeling great with no pain at all. I so very happy I found this sight and I have very little doubt that this remeday worked for me.

I have had kidney stones 2 times before, and when i started feeling the symptoms again, I knew I was in for it. To cut a long story short, after being hospitalized and having a CT scan, they found a 2mm stone. Doctors said that it will pass naturally and theres nothing natural or medical that they can do. So I went home in great discomfort with a prescription for pain relief and went searching for natural remedies on the net and came across the olive oil and lemon treatment (about 3oz of each). I was a bit skeptical, but I mixed the two ingredients, swallowed it followedd by a large glass of purified water and within 4 hours,I passed the stone through painlessly (although I couldnt see it in the toilet bowl, I knew it had passed), and my aches and pains have gone (although I seem to be sleeping alot). My stools are a little soft, but I took another dose this morning just to be sure theres nothing left in my kidneys, and will probably take it every 6 months or so, just to keep on top of it. Cant believe Doctors cant recommend this treatment. Thank you.

Since 2001 I have had three surgeries for removal of kidney stones to large to pass. Two years ago, I stumbled across this web site and tried the Lemon Juice & Olive Oil remedy. I still get some stones almost every other month, but with this remedy I pass them without any pain or discomfort. At the first of each month I drink the four ounces of mixture four times a day for three days. This routine, for me, flushes all the stones out. This past month I passed two stones each almost 2.3 mm. with absolutely no pain or discomfort.

I just went through my 4th bout of kidney stones in 30 years. I went into the emergency room one week ago where they CT scanned a 4mm stone. After the usual morphine and begging to go home since I knew they couldn't do much for me there other than load me up with morphine for the pain, I was released. 6 days and no stone. 3 more days until surgery is scheduled to pull it out. My wife ran across this site and immediately ran out and got fresh lemons and olive oil. She made me the shooter of 2 oz. of each mixed together and I chased it with water. At 11:30 the following morning I passed the stone. A mere 16 hours after trying the remedy. After 6 days of usual fluid loading, all it took was this remedy. I am an old pro at kidney stones, but this one taught me something new. Thanx for the remedy and I would highly suggest it to anyone suffering the agony of kidney stones. The taste of this is nothing compared to the pain.

I have had kidney stones for 15 years, a bad episode every 2 to 5 years. I was delighted to find this web site and immediately took both vinegar and lemon juice and olive oil in 2 oz portions. I took more lemon juice and olive oil subsequently, today I passed a stone, very little discomfort. I am angry at the mainstream medical profession that seems unwilling to toss out some of these safe, inexpensive and effective treatments.

About 2 weeks ago I went to the bathroom and I urinated red. To me that is a sign of kidney stone. I have had stones come out before and that si the first warning. I did not know what to do. I started drinkin a lot of water and said to myself that I would let it come out just like the other times. On the other times I flushed out t he stone but if hurted me because it had spikes on it, and I suffered for some days after.
I did some research and I found out the remedy of OLIVE OIL and LEMON JUICE. I wanted to try since many here said it worked for them. I have Calcium concentrated stones.
I took 4 tablespoons of Olive oil and a fresh full squized lemon, ones in the morning and ones at night. Everytime I took it after a while the pain would be gone. 2 days ago, I took the last shot of the "cocktail" followed by distiled water and waited.
In the morning of saturday 11/22/2008 I felt like my blader was about to explode. I went to the washroom and urinated a whole lot....not paying any attention to anything....When I focused on the bottom of the boul, I saw it....there is was..my worst enemy...The stone had some out and was the sice of a rice grain. How come i did not feel it? WOW....I tried to pick it up so I could see it and I could not..Everytime I went to grab it it would desolve.
This was the first time I had a stone come out without even feeling it, or feeling any pain.
THANK YOU FOR THIS REMEDY, BECAUSE IS AWSOME. GOD BLESS you and if I see any signes of stones again, this will be my cure from now on....
THANK YOU FROM THE HEART.

Last Friday around 3 PM I got a sharp pain in my side that rapidly got worse and worse. I tried going to the bathroom, sitting in a hot bath, sleeping it off, but nothing worked. I came downstairs and my wife said I was white as a ghost and that we should go to the ER. They diagnosed it as a kidney stone, gave me some pain pills, and sent me home. For the next three days, the pain stayed in the exact same spot, and I was worried and had no answers as to what to do. My wife found this website with this lemon juice and olive oil remedy. I took my first serving (2 oz lemon juice, 2 oz olive oil) followed by a glass of water this morning. A few hours later, the sharp pains returned but this time felt like they were in a different spot. I took a pain pill, went to bed, woke up and the pain had gone away. Later that afternoon, I had my second dose of lemon juice and olive oil. About an hour later, I felt a bit nauseous and had some pain in my groin area. I went to the bathroom, and to my amazement, peed out a BB sized kidney stone, with no pain. I've never felt the pain of a kidney stone before and I hope to never feel it again. I know the stone may have been ready to come out on its own, but I really feel like it was this remedy that made it happen so quickly and painlessly. The stone hadn't budged for days, until the day I started taking the lemon juice and olive oil. Thanks so much to whoever discovered this, because it worked awesomely.

Thanks everyone so much for the olive oil and lemon combo. I passed my kidney stone after four weeks of extreme discomfort. When I would feel the pain coming on I would mix up the 2 oz. of each and I truly believe that it helped. On the last day of the experience I felt that it was about ready to come out so I mixed my last batch. Two hours later I was the proud parent of a 7mm stone. Thanks again. : )

Had my first stone moving last weekend and it lodged in the ureter at the top of my bladder. Customary pain set in Monday AM, visited docs, had CT scan which showed a 5-6mm stone. Found this site Monday, picked up loads of lemons at store and did 2-3 oz. fresh squeezed lemon mixed with 2-3 oz. organic extra virgin olive oil and chased it with a large tumbler of water - 3x on Monday, 2x on Tuesday and Wed. (morn. and eve) and this AM and sent the little bugger on its way about an hour ago. This combined with LOTS of water (as usual) probably did the trick. Yesterday, the Urologist told me they'd probably need to go in and get this one out due to the size and inflammation around it, but they wanted to give Flomax a try. Never used the Flomax. Took some Advil to help reduce any swelling, then lots of water with this remedy. It's all good stuff and certainly can't hurt. I have another that showed up on the CT that will fall at some point - and I'll be back to lemon juice and EVOO!!!

Tried the lemon juice and olive oil for kidney stones. 2oz each twice per day for 2 days. I also sipped on natural lemon juice, grape cranberry juice and distilled water for a week. I rubbed oregano oil on my side to relieve the inflamation. Pain subsided immediately. Never witnessed the passing of the stone. I think the lemon juice dissolved it and the oil perhaps created ease of movement. There has been no pain for nearly a month. Hallejah!

After suffering from kidney stones for sometime in desperation searched the net for an alternative to drinking water by the damful and waiting! Found this site and all your positive comments re lemon juice and extra virgin olive oil. Within 24 hours pain reduced by 50% and 24 hours later passed a stone with ''really'' jagged edges. Thank you so much for sharing, it really proves we can help each other as any pain is needless if it can be avoided by shared intelligence. Thanks again. Barry

I have been suffering from kidney stones for the past 5 years, and have had laser and basket surgury 2x to remove these painful stones. I had surgury three months ago, and it took me a month to recover having gotten sick from the medications, had awful pain from placing and removing my uretal stints, and having an internal catheter placed in my because ... well, I couldn't pee. One month following the surgury, I found another stone had dislodged itself from my other kidney and it would not come out for two months. I was scheduled for surgury this Thursday(another laser and basket), and was willing to try anything not to go through that recovery again.
I had been drinking lemon juice in water for a couple weeks, but after finding this site, I tried the 2oz olive oil and 2oz lemon juice. I did this two times in one day. No results.
I waited a couple of days. Still nothing. I chalked it up to another unproven folk-remedy and prepared for surgury.
On Saturday, I thought that I would try it one more time, this time trying 3oz olive oil and 3oz lemon juice. It tasted so disgusting I thought I was going to vomit. A couple of hours later, I felt sick to my stomach all day. I thought it was from drinking so much oil. I now think that this was because of my kidney stone moving.
Just before midnight I woke up to use the bathroom and passed a huge, twisted stone shaped like the letter J with a point on one end and a jagged chisel shaped shaft. It was about 5mm (the CAT scan had said it was 3.6mm) There was another 2mm stone that came out as well. No blood.
Still felt nauseated until the next morning, but I avoided surgury and am so glad.
