Instructions:
Drink milk: Kidney stones are often formed from excess calcium oxalate. It seems counterproductive to drink milk or eat foods, which contain calcium. But you don’t want to eliminate calcium from your diet. In fact, studies have indicated that eating a diet too low in calcium can make you more likely to form kidney stones. Make sure to eat a variety of foods that contain calcium, such as cheese, yogurt and milk. But it’s also important to avoid going overbroad. Although calcium can be good for you, you can get too much of a good thing. If you’re prone to kidney stones, 1000 mg of calcium a day may be enough. But speak with your doctor to make sure you are aiming for the right amount.
