How much of the leaf do you recommend eating? It is also called Kalanchoe or Mother of the Thousands, and also used for cancer.

Dissolve kidney stones in 3 days-no pain. you need:
Day 1
6 limes
4 liters water (16 cups)
alfala tablets

Mix limes w/water drink throughout the day. Every waking hour take 2 alfalfa tablets.

Days 2&3
throughout the day drink same amount of water-no limes and same amount of tablets. Simple. Avoid all caffine products including chocolate during this cleanse. I did a liver cleanse w/o cleansing kidneys first-I couldn't stand up straight for a week...after finding this cleanse, I've never had a problem since.

Olive Oil worked on my current kidney stones,, I mean I believe it flushed everything out and I also took Hydranga,,4 capsules 3 times a day with food. Also marshmallow root helps, plus a gallon a day of water with 1 cup lemon juice, that dissolved the stones in about a week..Hydranga dissolves all type of stones. But I also think that everyone out there should use a LOW OXALATE DIET. It confirms what doctors are now saying. That foods high in Oxalate content cause kidney stones. This is from the University of Pittsburgh, Medical Center. I find that when I do eat the foods that are low in Oxalates I have no kidney pain. Luck to all

I have not tried corn silk tea, But my mother recommended this to our neighbor with kidney stones and he was relieved. Coincidentally, I recently saw an article in the Los Angeles Times, recommending the same thing, and it recommended for use as diuretic for all urinary problems.
