Herbal Remedies to Help Kidney Function

There are many beneficial herbs that can be used for kidney health. Some herbs can help prevent the formation of kidney stones, along with improving kidney function by expelling wastes and toxins from the body. Look for specific herbal combination formulations that target the kidneys in health food stores. Likewise, you can use single herbs to improve kidney function. Before adding herbal treatments to your health regimen, consult your physician.

Corn Silk

    Corn silk is probably the best single herb to use in improving kidney function. Corn silk is not readily available for purchase at health food stores; so you will want to make your own herbal preparation. Make your own herbal corn silk tea by purchasing some organic corn, and stripping the silk from the cobs. Discard any silk that is brown and dried. Corn silk is best used by steeping one ounce of material in one pint of boiling water. Let stand and cool off until it begins to thicken. Drink one cup of this tea three times a day before meals.

Watermelon Seed Tea

    As recommended by Edgar Cayce, watermelon seed tea acts as a diuretic, helping to cleanse the kidneys. It also stimulates under-active kidneys. Make a tea by pouring a pint of boiling water over one tablespoon of crushed or ground up watermelon seeds. Steep for ten minutes, strain and drink once a day at least three times a week.

Dandelion and Goldenrod

    Dandelion is a diuretic herb that increases blood flow to the kidneys, increasing urine output. Dandelion tea provides substantial amounts of potassium as compared to typical diuretics, which deplete the body of potassium. Look for dandelion tea in your local health food store, and drink according to the directions.

    Alternatively, if you can't find dandelion tea, goldenrod tea makes a fine substitution. Along with diuretic properties, goldenrod helps to repair inflammation that may be present in the urinary tract.

    Make either tea on your own by combining two teaspoons of the dried herb with one cup of boiling water and steeping for 15 minutes. Strain and drink once or twice a day.

    Consult your physician before adding any herbal treatment to your lifestyle.
