Nocturnal Urination (Nocturia) Remedies
Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nocturia
"Nocturia, also called nycturia, is the need to get up during the night in order to urinate, thus interrupting sleep. Its occurrence is more frequent in the elderly. Nocturia could result simply from too much liquid intake before going to bed (usually the case in the young), or it could be a symptom of a larger problem, such as sleep apnea, hyperparathyroidism[1], chronic renal failure, urinary incontinence, bladder infection, Interstitial Cystitis, diabetes, heart failure, benign prostatic hyperplasia, Ureteral Pelvic Junction Obstruction[2] or prostate cancer."

[YEA] 06/09/2010: Kathy from Dallas, Tx writes: "Grapefruit Juice cured nocturia (need to get up and urinate in the night). I discovered this quite by accident. I was traveling by car on a long trip and at two different stops purchased a bottle (pint?)of 100% ruby red grapefruit juice to drink. That night I did not need to get up to use the bathroom during the night! I began drinking grapefruit juice daily. After a few weeks I no longer needed to drink the juice to maintain the healing.
Regarding grapefruit juice I also discovered when I was doing a colon cleanse and feeling poorly from the toxins being released that it helped my body clear out the toxins. Then learned from doing research it has an enzyme that helps the liver to detox the blood. It worked."

[BETTER BUT NOT CURED] 11/18/2009: David from San Diego, Ca writes: "I am 80 and bothered by frequent nocturnal urination (as often as every hour). After taking 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar, the frequency is 2-3 hours.
Any info on rice vinegar usage?"
