I got admitted into the ER this AM and the CT scan showed a 3 MM kidney stone. I was discharged at 12, read this article at 3 and immediately tried both the ACV and Olive Oil/Lemon juice. At 7:30 I passed the stone. Thank you so much for this information. What a relief! God bless you all.

Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

I must say I thank god I found this site been suffering with Kidney stones for the last 6 years or so had surgery had them blasted. I started having an attack again so dreading going through the surgery or blasting I began searching alternative treatments and found this site about olive oil and lemon juice. So I said let me try- it's cheap, what do I have to lose and both ingredients are healthy. So I began the cocktail. Well to my surprise PAIN IS GONE, STONES ARE GONE And I'm not in medical debt.
To those of you skeptical and suffering from these beasts in your kidneys please, please try the olive oil remedy you won't be disappointed.

For the past several days I have had severe pain from a 4mm kidney stone in my left kidney. I had a CT Scan that confirmed the stone had moved into the tube between kidney and bladder. My urologist prescribed Vicodin and said it should pass in 2 to 3 weeks. There was absolutely no way that I was going to wait that long so I started researching on line and found this site. After reading the entries, I drove myself the grocery store and bought the Extra Virgin Olive Oil and a bottle of concentrated Lemon Juice and I drank both last night before I went to bed. Around 2:00 AM this morning I had some serious pain as the stone started moving down to my bladder, but the pain passed in about 30 minutes or so. This morning I got up and drank the olive oil, but instead of mixing the lemon juice into it, I made myself a big glass of lemonade with it and stirred in some honey. Big difference in taste and was so good I had two glasses. Around 1:00 PM this afternoon I saw sand like particles in my urine and at 5:00 PM this evening I passed the stone!
I am a believer. I have had stones twice before, once nearly 30 years ago and again just last month. Both were very painful and long duration experiences. I'm sure the lemon juice did help to break up the stone and the olive oil helped ease it out.
It now also makes sense as to why I had the stones in the first place. I'm sure they built up over time as I am prone to them, but for the past six weeks I have been actively losing weight and every morning I have been eating Grapefruit and an orange or two during the day as part of my diet plan. Citric acid, just like from the lemon has been slowly eating away at the stones and they got small enough to move out of my kidneys. At least that is my theory!
In any event, I will not soon forget this recipe for getting rid of kidney stones. Thank you! :)
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil
This morning I was taken to a hospital with an ambulace, I did not know why I was in soo much pain. It woke me up at 4 am, and the pain is horrible, I delivered a child naturally and I would rather go through childbirth again than bare this pain. I just drank the lemon juice and olive oil and I pray that it works. No pain pill helps at all so I really hope for this remedy to work. we will see.

I would also like to add besides saying this cure works is: You need to start taking it immediately before you get a 100% blockage in one kidney or the other. It is very hard for this remedy to work if you are completely clogged. It will still work but it takes longer and believe me when I say it is a pain like no other, I'm a combat wounded vet not disabled and also have 4 crushed discs in my back and would welcome that kinda pain intraday of a 90-100% kidney blockage!!!!! Once again THANKYOU GOOD PEOPLE AND "EARTHCLINIC. COM"!!!!!! Just this little advice has currently saved me 100-150k in hospital bills. Not to mention the extreme pain and agony.
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

Thank you very kindly everyone for this great posting. I went to the Doctor during the New Year and it was reported nothing could be traced on my urine. However, I was experiencing extremely burning sensation during urinating time. The Doctor offered me to go for scanning instead just to make sure everything was alright with me. At the same time, the Doctor prescribed me some antibiotics which according to the Chemist it was just a general antibiotic type. After taking this antibiotic for 5 days, I was still feeling really unwell and I am sure if you had the same experience before you would understand how exactly I felt.
This afternoon, the pain was just unbearable and I was searching all over the Internet until I came across your home remedy. I rushed to the shops and got myself a bottle of Extra Virgin Olive Oil and 2 fresh lemons. It worked perfectly and the pain seems to disappear into thin air although with the side effect like feeling nausea.
To everyone here, a very BIG thank you from me to all you for posting your kind suggesstions and comments. Thanking you very kindly. Kind regards, Bec.

Tried the lemon juice and olive oil concoction times 2 doses over a six hour period, once in afternoon and once before bed. It worked!
Woke up feeling 100% better and NO PAIN.
I am very grateful to everyone for this remedy. I suffered through the pain for 4 days and it was getting worse by the day and I was getting desperate. I also couldn't afford to go to a doctor.
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

I woke up at 130 this morning with pain from an obvious kidney stone. It waqs not severe at that time. I took 2 pain pills and tried to go back to sleep. By 630 my pain was 9 on a scale of 10 and I know the 10 it can reach. Looked on the internet and found your site. I live in Costa Rica and went out to my lemon tree grabbed 4 lemons. Mixed with olive oil. Within an hour I was pain free. Totally amazed! Not sure if it will be returning, but I have a whole tree full of lemons and the last drink has lasted at least 12 hours.
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

Have had stones in past and got through them by drinking lots of water. This time stone only moved from back to left side and stabbing pain became unbearable. Found this web page (thank God) and took first dose of 2 oz olive and 2 oz lemon juice, washing down with glass of water, about 9am. Used Ibuprofen and Diazapam (muscle relaxer) to mitigate pain for about 10 hours. Took second dose of olive oil and lemon juice at 9pm.
Slept through the night and woke up and the PAIN was GONE. A little residual ache from stone being in place for so long, but couple of Ibuprofen solved that. Thanks to everyone for this remedy. Keeping oil and juice on hand for next time.

The whole idea behind consuming the olive oil and lemon juice concoction is to remove the abrasive edges of the kidney stone and allow the stones to pass freely via the olive oil.
It would be to your advantage if you were to consume this 2-3 times per day, as I had, so that you can pass your stone quickly.
I passed a stone nearly 9 mm in size in only a fraction of a week.

Like thousands of others, I suffered from very severe pain with kidney stone. From the CT Scan, my doc requested that I should undergo surgery immediately, approx. 6.5mm.
Thanks to this online forum, I adopted all the recommendation from this page: lemon juices, apple cidar vinegar, olive oil, and distilled water. Keep drinking them in combinations all day long for 7 days, using oat meal and organic honey to help relieve bad taste and stomach discomfort.
Doc also prescibes me pain killer, uniary tract antibotics and flomax to help increase the urine flow. I have no fever all along!
Stone finally passed out on the 7th day morning! When I bring it in for analysis, my doc is amazed by the size and my ability to pass.
I cannot tell which remedy is the ultimate solution, but the price I paid from taking all these together are so small compared to having to go to the surgery room.
Since this forum has saved me this Christmas, I just want to share this with the rest! Sincere thanks to the previous posts!

It's 8pm and at 6:45 pm I drank 4 oz. of fresh squeezed lemon juice followed by 4 oz. of extra virgin olive oil, followed by 1 liter of H2O.
My kidney stone pain was at about a 5/10, now it's at a 2/10. This is my second bout with the pesky buggers and a nurse I spoke with on the phone refused to even make me an appointment, rather, she insisted that I come to the emergency room tonight. I can't afford to, so I was planning on coming home and drinking a few beers-which also helped me with my first go round. However, I didn't like the side effects (drunkeness for a light weight like me).
This remedy is AMAZING!! I'm going to have another lemon juice EVOO elixer before bed. Gracias a Dios!
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil
I'm 28 weeks pregnant with my first child and a couple of months ago I woke up with excruciating pain emanating from my kidney. Since kidney stones run in my family, I'm pretty sure that's what it was. The pain went away and then this morning around 4:30 a.m. I had severe pain in my stomach (poor baby), and back. At first I thought I was going into pre-term labor but after I calmed down I realized they weren't contractions. I was not about to go to the E. R. and have them probe and prod me and cause me to go into labor, so I calmed down, and just dealt with the pain as best as could. And the baby was kicking like crazy during all of this, I hope he didn't get hurt.
I just now drank the Olive Oil & Lemon Juice mixture, 2 oz. of each, with a few sips of lemonade in between to keep from gagging. It wasn't so bad, I'm just worried what's going to happen with my ulcer now. I'd much rather deal with ulcer pain than kidney stone pain anyday. If this doesn't work I'm going to wait 24 hours and do the Apple Cider Vinegar mixed with honey concoction. Thanks for all your comments! I really appreciate this information:) Good luck to everyone!
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

My husband found that he had a 3mm kidney stone in an ER. The doctor said he should be able to pass the stone with the help of a medication that helps dialate the ureter. An ER nurse suggested that we look up lemon juice on internet as she heard that it could help prevent kidney stone. My husband took the medicine for 4 days, drank lots of water mixed with some lemon juice, while suffering from severe pain, nausea, fever, chills, but there was no sign of stone.
Then I found this website and decided to try the recipe right away. I mixed 2 oz lemon juice with 2 oz olive oil. My husband drank it and followed by a big glass of water. Amazingly, the next day he passed the stone. The stone broke into smaller pieces. We're so thankful that we found this website and the recipe. Good luck to all who have kidney stones.
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

I have been suffering with painful kidney stones for 4 months that the doctor kept saying "it will pass". I was miserable. I had read about this remedy, but since it really makes no sense to me I never tried it. However, I finally caved in and did the olive oil/lemon juice mixture twice per day starting yesterday. By this morning the bladder spasm and pain was greatly improved and this afternoon I had some mucus come out with my urine. About an hour later out came that darn stone! Who knows how it works or if it is coincidence, but I am very happy the pain in gone.

Oh my, Tahnee, you really have learned well the lessons we are taught... But mind you, they are often wrong! Please do some research about good and bad fats and I tell you, you will be shocked! Don't believe everything you are told, as far as fats go or anything else! They want you to eat, drink, live as it is more beneficial for them, no regards whatsoever for your health. Some good books are Trick and Treat, by Barry Groves, Fats and Cholesterol are good for you, Eat fat and lose Fat, there are also books solely on coconut products... then make up your mind! The more you learn the more alert you will be when governements come with all their "advice".

Francisca is on the money here. Apart from Barry Groves' "2nd Opinion" site everyone should read David Gillespie's book "Big Fat Lies" about the evils of sugar [as fructose, not glucose] and polyunsaturated oils and margarines. Fructose is a leading cause of excess uric acid production. Polyunsaturated oils are unstable at room [body] temperature and overwhelm the body's antioxidant defences. Between them they are responsible for the epidemic of "metabolic syndrome" diseases we see today, which have arisen in tandem with the consumption of fructose in sodas and juices and processed foods, etc. There is also the trouble caused by "excitotoxins". Look it up.
I have had kidney stones since I was 26 separated by up to 10 years of symptom free gaps.
I have had lithotripsy once which successfully dissolved a large stone, but left me with high blood pressure [a known side effect] Worse, doing litho on both kidneys together can lead to diabeties!
I have never tried many of the remedies here discussed but as a preventative I drink lemon/lime water every morning, and during the day as well. I have gone 9 years symptom free, but I have some small stones.
I would like to say that my calcium oxalate stones have come out like little rubbery nodules, but go rock hard on drying out. Also I don't believe they dissolve in the body, but what may happen is that the material that causes them to clump into bigger stones may dissolve so the small grains can pass?
Great site, this.
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

A big "thank you" to the author of this remedy! My first bout of kidney stones was on Easter Sunday 2005 at the age of 43 - I didn't know if I had injured my back, burst my appendix, or had kidney stones. In extreme pain, my wife rushed me to the hospital's ER where a long ridiculous process started. To make a long story short, a CT scan found a lodged 4mm stone between my left kidney and urthea and after 2 nights of being drugged up on morphine and an IV drip continuosly going, I left the hospital still in pain. The stone did eventually pass.
Over the next few years I experienced passive kidney stones now and then with little discomfort - until yesterday - another full blown pain in the kidney area radiating to my back doubling me over. Not wanting to go though the 14K hospital fiasco again, I did research and as luck would have it, found this site.
The bout started at about 7:00PM, came and subsided in waves of 5~10 minutes apart - I hadn't eaten dinner yet so nausea wasn't too bad. At 8:00PM I drank the 2oz olive oil / 2oz lemon juice concoction - within a few hours the waves of pain lessoned. I drank 5 tall glasses of water during this whole time and was urinating every hour throughout the night. By morning the pain was gone - and by noon today I was back to normal.
I never would have thought a remedy like this would stop such a severe pain!

This works! 2 oz of lemon juice and 2 oz of olive oil. Within 45 minutes of gulping down this nasty mixture I was pain free. Like night and day! For me, the pain may have intensified slightly after swallowing it. But well worth it. This was 5 days ago and still no pain. Anyone know why I now must urinate twice as often as before this cure? Perhaps frequency of urine will adjust back over time?

I have had kidney stones before so I know what the pain feels like and where it's located. The pain was concentrated on my left lower back and it radiated forward to my pelvic area. I took codeine 300-30 mm tablets to lessen the pain but after 24 hours, not even this pill was helping. After enduring 24 hours of agony I decided to try the 2oz lime juice-2oz olive oil remedy and within one hour I was already feeling much better. However, the pain intensified for a few minutes on the second hour as the stone made its way out. I drank several glasses of water after I took the remedy to help me flush out the stone. This remedy worked for me. I have no idea what size stone I passed because I did not go to the hospital to get an x-ray but whatever its size; it passed. I did not see it come out when I urinated so it was probably a small one. Drinking the remedy was not that bad. I had an after taste of the olive oil for a couple of hours but other than that I was fine.
Lemon Juice and Olive Oil

I went to the hosptial on 6 30 2011 with back pain with a mri test I was told I had a 6.2mm kidney stone, I was giving pain meds and sent home. Two days later a friend told me of this home remedy of 2oz of olive oil and 2oz of 100% lemon juice followed by water. I was still in pain taking pain meds and did the remady again and as of today 7 24 2011 went pee and there it was a 6.2 mm stone, so the remedies must work. I have a picture to prove it I've been dealing with stones for years and first time I ever passed one that big without medical help.

I am so happy I found this site. I had a kindey stone pass from my kidney with alot of blood and pain and on it's way out it got stuck. I did what the doctor told me... Had to return twice in the course of the following 2 1/2 months and I had pain daily. I was taking pain pills that helped very little and drinking alot of water and I kept believing it would pass as the doctor said but it just got worse and when I had to urinate I sometimes had a sensation of tiny little knives stabbing me after I finished... OUCH! I was ready to go back a fourth time and it was a depressing thought because I now expected no results and since it was stuck I was reading about the alternate method of getting the stone to pass and it was not something to look forward to so I tried the olive oil and lemon juice gladly... Took it twice the first day and the next morning I drank another one (not as bad tasting as one would expect! )... And an hour or so later it passed! NO MORE PAIN! I am so thrilled... Thanks you so much for this site and for the advice!

Can anyone tell me if this remedy (lemon juice with olive oil) is only to be used when you have the attack, or is it also to reduce (or break up) the stones once you know you have them? In other words, do I have to wait for the stone attack to drink the lemon juice/olive oil concoction? Thank you all, in advance, for your answers.
