Surprisingly, most people tend focus on doing a liver cleanse and also a colon cleanse I believe those two cleanses are very important, but what I believe is probably just as important and one of the top three cleanses people should be doing on a regular basis is a kidney cleanse, especially if you've ever suffered with any type of infection, any type of fluid retention or especially any type of urinary tract infection
This type of cleanse is absolutely essential In order to do a kidney cleanse, I'm going to talk about the best herbs, the best fruits and the best vegetables for doing a kidney cleanse First off, when it comes to herbs the best three herbs are going to be Nettle, also known as stinging nettles, burdock and Rehmannia Stinging nettle is really high in vitamin C and this herb has been shown to help to start filtering out extra fluids through the kidneys So again, very, very effective for that, so you want start using nettles
What I recommend is getting it as a tea and doing three glasses of nettle tea a day Also, another tea you can mix in is burdock tea, and then you can get a Rehmannia supplement, that's R-H-E-M-M-A-N-I-A [sic] Rehmannia is that Chinese medicine herb that's been shown to help cleanse the kidneys Now, as I move into food and talk about food, what you want to know is when it comes to supporting your kidneys, your kidneys are responsible for detoxifying your body and getting rid of certain toxins, and balancing out fluids in your body which is very important for circulation and also even for microbial balance in your body So as we start to look at the health of your kidneys, you typically want to consume foods that are nutrient-dense that are very high in electrolytes and antioxidants
So remember that If you want to heal your kidneys, you want to consume foods that are high in electrolytes and antioxidants By the way, kidney cleanse is great for anybody with kidney stones as well Let's talk about the best fruits specifically for the kidneys Number one is cranberries, number two is black cherries, and number three are blueberries
These are very dark antioxidant rich super fruits that are nutrient dense So again drinking cranberry juice throughout your day or making a morning smoothie and throwing cranberries in there, whether they're frozen or fresh, either way, but cranberry is an amazing superfood You can even buy cranberries at your local health food store and actually do a kidney cleanse juice Ideally, if you're going to do a kidney cleanse it's going to be celery juice and cranberry juice Those are by far the two best things as you're cleansing your kidneys, cranberry and celery
They work fantastic, so if you want to do a vegetable juice you could do that as well Again, blueberries we know have Resveratrol, we know black cherries have a very specific type antioxidant that's great for GAL and eliminating uric acid We also know cranberries contain a certain compound that actually kills infections and it's great for UTIs Remember, if you're trying to do a kidney cleanse get these three berries every day, cherries, blueberries and cranberries The third thing you want to do as you're doing a kidney cleanse is you want to add certain foods into your diet that support the kidneys, the adrenals and also cause your body to increase circulation
Number one food is got to be beets Beets are high in what's called NO2, that's nitric oxide, which is really good for naturally cleansing the blood So beets are a blood cleanser but also a kidney cleanser The next food is going to be seaweed Seaweed is incredible because it is one of the most nutrient dense foods on the planet
Adding a tablespoon of spirulina or chlorella, or just even a teaspoon, or green superfood powder, to a smoothie in the morning is a great idea or if you do that juice mixture But again, seaweed like spirulina, chlorella or even doing a seaweed salad or kelp noodles, those are all great ways to help cleanse your kidneys The next food is going to be lemon juice Doing some fresh-squeezed lemon in some water upon wakening is a great thing to do as well And then last but not least in terms of veggies is going to be spinach
We know spinach is a power house food It's high in B vitamins and high in certain antioxidants that help cleanse the entire body, especially the kidneys Now, let me talk about putting this whole thing together What I'd recommend in a kidney cleanse program is to do a three-day cleanse where basically the only thing you're consuming is a veggie juice that's made of or a smoothie, you could do this as well, but it's celery, cranberries, blueberries, and then you're going to add in a little bit of collagen protein powder and you can drink that about three times for three times in three days and then afterwards doing a diet Again, you're going to do a smoothie for breakfast It's going to have cherries, about a half a cup each of cherries, blueberries and cranberries, along with some collagen protein powder and coconut milk and some greens powder, a thing of spirulina So that's going to be breakfast
For lunch you're going to actually do that smoothie or juice, and then for dinner you're going to do a big salad with a chicken breast If you can follow that kidney cleanse protocol, I'm telling you, you're going to feel your energy levels go absolutely through the roof This isn't only just good as a kidney cleanse, it's a good way to reset your adrenal glands So if you struggle with adrenal fatigue this is another incredible doing a kidney cleanse can help you in overcoming adrenal fatigue If you want to learn more about the health of your kidneys and adrenal glands make sure you visit my website, DrAxecom, or just do a Google search for Dr Axe adrenal diet or Dr
