The Root Cause of Kidney Stones
On this week's episode of Integrative Wellness Radio, Dr. Nick & Dr. Nicole, cover the major root causes of kidney stones and how this can manifest as a top-down or a bottom-up issue.
A Peak Inside:
Kidneys filter toxins and fluids from the body, regulate electrolyte balance and blood pressure, and stimulate red blood cell production. Stones form in the kidney when minerals in urine are at high concentration.
The incidence of kidney stones across the globe is rising. Kidney stones are most commonly seen in both males and females, usually in late adulthood. It is an increasing urological disorder of human health, affecting about 12% of the world population. Leading this episode, Dr. Nicole, alongside Dr. Nick, will shed more light on the seriousness of this issue and also discuss what measures one should take to avoid kidney stones and improve the function of the kidneys.
