How to Flush Out Your Kidneys with Herbal Tea
One of the easiest and most effective ways to support kidney function is with the Kidney Cleanse Tea. This delicately flavored, mild tasting tea is detoxing to the entire urinary tract. It is a very effective aid to flush out the urinary tract and provide soothing nourishment to the tissues.
The traditional organic and wildcrafted herbs in the Kidney Cleanse Tea are potent for increasing the flow of urine to flush your kidneys and bladder clean and support effective kidney function.
Made with whole herb parts so you get the most effective and potent qualities from each ingredient specially selected for their ability to strengthen, tone and flush the entire kidney - bladder - urinary tract system.
The Kidney Cleanse Tea is recommended for anyone who has been brought up on a diet of processed foods with additives, or has had excessive consumption of sugar, meats and dairy, or has taken frequently over the counter or prescription drugs and medicines, or an environment polluted with chemical products or a contaminated water supply.
Kidney health is vital to maintain a stable internal balance while the external environment changes. They regulate the acid/alkaline mineral content to maintain a balanced pH. The kidneys also produce hormones that control blood pressure. The kidneys monitor the amount of body fluids and filter out toxins and wastes.
Today, the kidneys need to handle more toxic substances than ever before and they respond to herbal support for optimal function.
Chemicals, additives, pesticides, herbicides and other pollutants in our environment and foods all burden our natural detoxification systems. Also toxic substances from cleaning, beauty and personal care products and medicines can accumulate in the body, burdening the kidneys and the entire system.
The kidneys respond to this concentration of toxic substances by attempting to dilute them, demanding increased water in circulation. If you are not drinking enough, urine can become concentrated, too alkaline and irritating. Mild cleansing herbal tea is a pleasant way to drink more, in addition to these beneficial ingredients supportive of the urinary system.

Precautions
Do not take if pregnant or nursing.
Kidney & Bladder Cleanse herbs include some herbs that are intended for short term periodic use in cleansing. Use for 1-2 weeks at a time, then wait 2-3 months before using again.
Increasing urinary output and flushing the kidneys may decrease potassium levels in the body, so it is important to replenish potassium while cleansing. High potassium foods to eat include beets & beet greens, lentils, yogurt, potatoes, sweet potatoes, pumpkin and other winter squashes, broccoli, brussel sprouts, dark leafy greens, coconut water, bananas.
Use of horsetail for extended periods may cause Vitamin B1 levels to drop. Supplement with B1 in this case. Do not drink alcohol regularly while taking horsetail.
If you are taking medications or have a medical condition, consult your healthcare practitioner before use.
If there are indications of possible kidney impairment, have your kidney functions checked by your healthcare practitioner before using this cleanse. Start with a low dose with your healthcare practitioner's agreement and work up slowly.
If you have serious kidney problems or have been diagnosed with kidney disease, you should consult with your doctor before doing this or any cleanse. Consult with your doctor or dietician and work with them to find a diet protocol tailored to your needs.
