I have suffered from chronic kidney stones for the last 13 years and have been feeling very defeated because I feel like I’m doing the best that I can do in terms of my diet and I still keep producing stones. This Information has finally given me the clarity that I need based on my 24 hour urine results so that I can finally focus on what I need to be focusing on.
Informative and fascinating
