my freind and his kidneys

[brew]

He has noticed a slight lower back pain but its not back related he thinks it kidney trouble.....no blood in the urine or anything that severe, just 24hrs on light noticble pain. I told him to end the dnp which he has done. What else would you recomend.....is there and kidney toxifiers/ teas that kinda thing that he can get a GNC of some place local that he should start ASAP?

Cranberry juice, 100%, one of the best things for your kidneys.

Agreed-I like the cranberry juice. its defintely the dnp. I would really be careful because of possible more severe renal issues.

The key with Cranberry juice is not to flush it all out with too much water and if he is still on DNP then cutting the water out is not a good idea.

Never used DNP so I hope others will chime in.

good idea guys, I forgot all about that. he defentltey needs to flush with some water for a few more days....would it be more beneficial to get some cranberry extract form gnc then to drink the juice?

The caps will work too, I just like the juice.

If he wants to know if his kidneys are being damaged, he needs to take a blood test and specifically look at his Creatinine and BUN. If he is really worried, he should contact a nephrologist (kidney doctor) for advice.
