how can i detox my kidneys at home - #19909
I am really worried about my kidney health lately. I've had some back pain – not the kind that’s just from lifting stuff, but more that dull ache type, ya know? My doctor said my kidney function is okay for now after some tests, but I can't shake this feeling that I should be doing more to take care of them. I've been reading up on how can I detox my kidneys at home because honestly, the thought of kidney issues freak me out. My urine seems darker some days, which makes me think, is this a sign I should pay attention to? I tried drinking more water, but it doesn’t seem to help that much, or maybe I'm just not doing it enough? I've seen stuff about foods that are supposed to help, like cranberries, beets, and even cabbage!? I don't really eat healthy as I should, though – it's mostly quick meals and takeout. Anyway, how can I detox my kidneys at home effectively and safely? Is there specific diets or drinks that might work? I read somewhere about herbal teas but also heard that some herbs can hurt too. What do you think? Could regular cleansing help me feel better or do more harm than good?
