Your body’s natural detox machines: Kidneys.
Yet 90% of people ignore them — causing inflammation, brain fog, & chronic exhaustion.
Here's everything you need to know about kidney health (& how to cleanse them):
Your kidneys work around the clock to remove:
• Waste
• Toxins
• Excess fluids
If they stop working, toxins flood into your bloodstream.
Your body can shut down within days.
Kidneys also regulate your electrolytes to keep you alive.
They balance your sodium, potassium, and calcium levels.
When these are low, your nerves, heart and muscles stop working.
But when they're high, it can lead to kidney stones, gout, and organ problems.
Most people are hurting their kidneys every day.
The hidden destroyers:
• Dehydration
• Too much salt or sugar
• Processed foods & carbs
• Painkillers like ibuprofen
You don't feel the damage right away until it’s irreversible...
Kidney disease is hard to spot early on.
But there are several red flags to watch:
• Swollen ankles
• Trouble focusing
• Long-term fatigue
• High blood pressure
Don’t miss these signs.
Kidney failure can be deadly.
If your kidneys fail to remove toxins, bacteria builds up and can lead to blood infections.
And a dialysis machine is often the only solution.
The good news?
You can cleanse and protect your kidneys naturally.
KIDNEY RESET PROTOCOL (1 WEEK):
• Limit sodium to 2300mg daily
• Cut sugars and processed foods
• Use a sauna daily to sweat out toxins
• Eat fewer calories = less work for your kidneys
• Drink plenty of dandelion, nettle or parsley teas
• Swap animal meats for low-acid proteins (fish, turkey)
• Deep hydration: drink 3L+ of water with lemon or lime juice
• Eat kidney-boosting foods: red grapes, cucumbers, cranberries
Kidney function tests can show specific biomarkers for renal health.
Check urea, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), calcium, phosphate, albumin, inulin, and electrolytes as a reference point.
Better data, better decisions.
Most people wait too long to care about their kidneys and do irreversible damage.
But it’s not just about avoiding disease.
It’s about living on your terms.
Healthy kidneys give you energy, proper hydration, & keep your body clean.
Flush them out often to protect them and they will protect you.
