Gokshuradi Guggulu Disolves Kidney Stones

Goat-sha-who-ga-lulu-huh? Say what? I don't know how to correctly pronounce it, but I do know this Ayurvedic Herb is a gift from the gods for anyone suffering from kidney stones.

If you've ever been in the middle of a bout of kidney stones or even a single kidney stone, then you know the pain and suffering that can ensue as one passes.

I had my first kidney stone attack slightly over 7 years ago while I was about 5 months pregnant. I thought I was in labor since there are many similar symptoms and I knew it was much too early, so I called my (homebirth) midwife and we met at the emergency room. As soon as it was evident that I was not in labor, I was quickly diagnosed with kidney stones (several nurses told me later that they knew just by the way I was holding my body that I had kidney stones). Since I was pregnant, conventional treatment was not possible. I am very thankful for this, since I've since been able to deal with my kidney issues without needing to see a doctor. I was forced to find the cause, rather than just putting a band-aid on the problem.

As research proves, the majority of kidney stones are caused by eating too much protein (specifically dairy). There are two kinds of kidney stones and the calcium ones make up between 80-95% of them. The proteins in dairy wreak havoc on kidneys (and other organs in the body, too). Some great information on kidney stones can be found on the PCRM site. Don't confuse the encouragement of calcium with the encouragement of dairy. The two are not related (this is a common misconception). Sufficient calcium for good health is found in a vegan diet.

The cure I was given:

• Stop eating dairy!
• Drink LOTS of water.
• Drink some more water.
• Add lemon to your drinking water.
• Drink some more of that lemon water, even if you don't like it.
  
• Take Gokshuradi Guggulu (see your own local Ayurvedic Herb specialist for your specific requirements on dosage) -- this Indian herbal compound can be found online fairly easily for around $20 + shipping. Banyan Botanicals makes a good one.
• Don't start eating dairy again once the stone passes.

Fortunately for me, the above prescription broke down my kidney stones and left me feeling wonderful quite quickly. Unfortunately for me, I'd spent my entire life previously eating dairy and accumulating many more stones. I also, at that time, continued to form new ones due to the fact that I didn't listen to that last recommendation for a couple of years. New and already formed stones continued to regularly plague my life, bringing me to a halt for a day or two every few months for the next several years. It was only when I completely stopped eating dairy that I found a long term solution.

Over four years later, I've had two bouts of kidney stones after rigorous activities and not enough hydration (I've been told that certain sitting positions can make stones break free, too). These have been old stones that were formed during my dairy eating years. I feel good knowing that I am not creating any new ones with my lowfat vegan diet. Good ol' Gokshuradi Guggulu comes to my rescue when an old one is dislodged and causing me pain. After they're gone, I'm glad to have them out of me. I look forward to the day that they are all gone from my system and I am thankful that I am helping my children never create any.
