Two days ago, I tried the lemon juice and olive oil, about 2:30 in the afternoon . After I took it I drank lots of water. I did not have much pain just a gnawing uneasy feeling in the back area. The next day I continued with water. Today at 1:30 in the afternoon, Guess what???, a stone came out! I collected it and it crumbled easily, I guess the lemon juice did it's thing! I will be doing the Lemon Juice thing every few weeks . Tonight before Bed, I will do it again, just in case there are more. WOW, it worked!!

I had heard of this after my last bout with a stone. When I started having pain last night, I googled again for the oil/lemon stuff and came to this site. I sent my husband to the store to get the olive oil and lemon juice. I took it (gross) and about 15 min later still having pain I decided to take a hot shower. --I can't believe people do not recommend that more for the pain. It always gives me instant relief at least for a while. Now a hot pad never worked, but a wet hot rag worked. The hot showers are the best. I believe the moist heat allows the ureter to expand a little. About 15 minutes after that, I went to the bathroom. Not seeing anything, I almost flushed the toilet. Then I saw the stone. It was totally white, Blended right in with the toilet. Maybe that is why people have not seen the stone. They are always dark like a stone and easy to see. I took it out and it broke in two and crumbled and was mushy in my hand. I couldn't believe it. Through the night I felt like crap chills/ sweats/ nausea/ headache and even during the day today. Not sure if it is related or I just ended up with a bug at the same time. Even if these bug symptoms were related to it, I would still recommend it. I just couldn't believe it did that to the stone. It must also be doing it to the many stones still in my kidneys. I just hope these other symptoms go away by tomorrow. Thanks much

Had two SWL shock treatments and stent for kidney stone. Neither worked. Tried olive oil and lemon juice followed by glass of water. Exactly 25 hours later, my stone came out. I really doubted this would work when I read it on your website, but I thought, it certainly couldn't hurt. I was headed for a uteroscopy to have it removed next week. Thank goodness I won't have to have this done. My doctor won't believe me when I tell him. Thank you for all of your inputs.

Kidney stone passed within 11 hours of taking the lemon juice/olive oil remedy! Thank you for posting this very valuable information. I searched the web when a friend said he thought he had kidney stones again (prev. had kidney stones 7 yrs. ago). He recognized the symptoms - nausea, vomiting, chills/fever, severe lower back pain. A trip to the ER confirmed what he had thought - yes, kidney stones. After leaving the ER with a RX for pain medication, my friend took the home remedy & called me today (11 hours later) & said he passed the stone!!!! This is such valuable info! I urge anyone reading this to try it for kidney stones!!

So far, pain from kidney stones is gone thank God and thanks to this page. First off...thank God for this page! In January, 2006, I was at work and became incapacitated due to lumbar and flank pain. I was sweating profusely, and skin was cold to the touch. It was one of the worst pains I had ever experienced. It was so bad, I was taken to the local ER by my wife. A KUB film (ie kidney, urinary bladder x-ray)and CT of the abdomen revealed 3 kidney stones, an 8mm in the left kidney, and two 4 mm in the right. Extracorporeal lithotripsy was indicated, but I didn't have thirty or forty grand to spend on it. This began an ordeal for about 10 months plus, in which some days were ok, and some days I had to stay on heavy duty pain pills to function. But, things took a turn for the worse. The pain was daily now, and getting worse. It became almost impossible to stand up to wash the dishes at home. Then, in desperation, I started Googling for possible remedies. I found this page, and at first blush, I thought, what good will lemon juice and olive oil do? After all, I reasoned that my stones were composed of Calcium Oxalate, and would not dissolve in acid urine. But, when disabling pain is the only alternative, you try anything, so I sent my wife to get some olive oil and lemonade. They were out of the cold pressed extra virgin olive oil, so she got the house brand. She got the lemon juice from concentrate. I mixed up the brew and chugged it down fast, followed by a glass of water. Surprisingly, it did not taste that bad. The next morning, I got out of bed early...dreading the pain in the left lower abdomen and low back. It didn't appear! I waited nervously the rest of the day. Nothing. At the end of the day, I took another dose for good measure. I haven't been aware that I have passed the stones, but the absence of disabling pain is such a Godsend, I cannot tell you how wonderful it is to be able to get up early again and do my chores and enjoy life. I am sharing this remedy and site with patients, friends, and family. Again, thank you so much.

Hi! all, I'm 18 weeks pregnant, and 9 days ago I was admitted to the hospital with an excruciating in my left flank. I was told I had a 4mm kidney stone. Being pregnant, my husband and I were quite worried about the Tylenol 3 I had been prescribed and worried about how the whole ordeal could affect our baby! As luck would have it, I found your website, and drank the olive oil/lemon juice mix and about 12 hours later, I was peeing little grain of sand and the pain had diminished. 3 days later I drank the mix again thinking the stone would still be in my kidney, and the next morning the pain had vanished. That same day, I was schedule for my second ultrasound, and they checked to see where the stone was located, and it had literally vanished from my system!! Thank Goodness as my baby is one and didn't have to take any pain killers or go through agonizing pain... Don't hesitate to try, it's drinkable, it's natural and it works!! Cheers

I tried the Lemon Juice and Olive Oil remedy this weekend. THe stone has been there for a year now and finally decided to move this weekend, so pain pills were not doing the trick, so i tried the Lemon Juice and olive oil remedy..It totally helps!!!! I took it after a big dinner and it just sat in my stomach but the pain was gone and i was able to sleep. The next morning i got pain again so i drank it again, on an empty stomach. Don't do that. I felt sick the whole day, pain was gone but sick to my stomach. And i feel 100xs better today still a bit sore, but nothing like what i would be feeling like. So try it!! But take it with food makes a big difference.

I'm a Believer! Thanks so much for this website. I was afflicted on Christmas Day with excruciating pain in my right side. After being rushed to urgent care I was diagnosed with kidney stones, given some pain meds and a pee strainer and sent home. I was stuck in the bed for the first week. The pain meds don't take away the pain, they just make it barely bearable. After 2 weeks of no change I decided to search for home remedies. I had previously read about apple cider vinegar, and then the olive oil and lemon juice concoction. I decided to try 2 oz of all 3 ingredients. I was desperate! I drank it down in 2 gulps followed by a glass of water and then cranberry juice and went to bed. The next morning the pain was actually bearable without pain meds. Within a few more hours, all the pain was gone. As far as I know I have not passed the stone or stones, but I am pain free! When I went to urgent care they scheduled a ct scan for 4 weeks away; Next week I will go and have it. I don't know if the stone dissolved or just found a nice place to hide. I guess I will find out next week. Thank you thank you thank you for this site!

4 ounces of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and 4 ounces of lemon juice to dissolve Kidney Stones: Ever since my husband, Steve had his first kidney stone attack back about 8 years ago anytime there was a CT scan or ex-ray or anything like that he was told he had a Stag horn Kidney stone in his left Kidney. The Doctors always told him that it would probably not ever move and not cause any trouble. A Stag horn in the kidney shoots out horn like arms and fills all the little crevices in the Kidney. They are not going anywhere. Having said that....
He's been prone to kidney stones that long and has had 4 lithotripsys and two surgeries to get rid of them. He started having kidney stone pain before Thanksgiving but he was trying to pass them on his own. The pain was bad but not unbearable with a little Demerol in him most of the time. After he took that first Dose of that Olive oil/lemon juice cocktail the pain got a little better. So he did another dose the next day which was a Sunday. That night he started hurting so bad but he roughed it out until the next day and I took him to the Urologist. When they ex-rayed him this time that stone was shining like a dime about a quarter the way down the tube. Anyway, after the surgery the doctor said he got it all and we came home. He was still hurting and actually passed several more stones after we got home. We had a post-op appointment one week after the surgery but when we got there, his regular doctor wasn't there. I went in the exam room with him.They asked him for a urine specimen and he deposited a stone in that specimen. The doctor that he saw did an ex-ray and said there shouldn't be any more stones and he was surprised that he was still passing them. He said to give it one more week and come back. In that week he was still in pain and still passing more small stones occasionally. Sometimes he said it felt like what he was passing was grainy and sandy. So after a week of that we go back to the doctor and see his regular doctor. He told Steve that is urine sample was good and clear and he couldn't understand why Steve was still passing stones and hurting. He wanted to do another CT Scan that day but they were behind. He asked us if we would hang around for another 2 hours and do the scan because he had the OR the next day and if he found something he'd go ahead and put him in the hospital and do another surgery on him then. Soooooooo That is what we did. Mind you, we never told that doctor about the concoction Steve had drank. Ok after the CT scan was done we were in the room where they look at the results. The Doctor was showing us that everything looked clear. Steve told him to scroll up to his left kidney and let's just look that old Stag horn stone. The Doctor said ok but he was sure it would be unchanged because he didn't get anywhere close to it during surgery.They can't get to those anyway. Well......He scrolled up there and about fell off his stool! It was GONE! Me and Steve just looked at each other and I knew we were both thinking the same thing. We never did tell that Doctor what we had done. We figured he's just poo poo it because those doctors don't want you to know stuff like that! How would they make any money .

I have suffered with kidney stones for twenty years. About six months ago I felt another one strike. Those of you that suffer know the pain well and the location based on the pain. I suffered with this pain for almost six months and finally went to the hospital. I found that I had two stones the size of a dime in the left kidney and about a 5mm on the right side that was basically hung before going into the bladder. The doctor scheduled me for surgery with fear that one of the kidneys would get blocked. In desperation, I came home and found this cure using lemon juice and olive oil and thought what do I have to lose. I took the dosage and went into prayer. The next day I once again took the dosage and prayed. That night the stone came out easy as you please. You have to understand that I believe in prayer very much, but felt that God led me to this page. It will work, and you are welcome to e-mail me as I am truly an honest person.
