How to Make a Kidney Cleanse Tea

This kidney cleanse tea recipe uses celery seeds for their medicinal properties. Celery and its seeds contain sodium and potassium, and have proven helpful for a myriad of conditions, including high blood pressure, gout, asthma, arthritis, flu, indigestion and gallstones. The diuretic effect of celery seeds helps cleanse the kidneys, which is important since they are a vital part of the body's detoxification system. As always, check the tips and warnings section for more information.
