A lot of kidney issues out there...
These specific symptoms continue to arise with many individuals I work with...
The symptoms which I will list are one aspect but what is the root cause?
The kidneys are vital for our bodies elimination process...
The kidneys eliminate metabolic waste from digestive, cellular & toxic by products...
When our kidneys are compromised from years upon years of ingesting acid/mucus forming foods, you can bet the adrenal glands are compromised as they sit on top of our kidneys...
When we take our blood pressure, the two numbers represent the adrenals over the kidneys (systolic over diastolic) and it’s best to take a reading from both arms to see what each side of the body is doing, as it often differs and that can be a clue as to how our kidneys / adrenals are functioning overall...
symptoms that you may experience which point to compromised kidneys are:
•dark circles or bags under your eyes
•dehydration
•headaches
•lower back pains or weakness on one side or both
•vision problems
•swollen ankles or edema
•difficulty urinating
•incontinence (loss of bladder control)
•kidney stones
•etc...
Our kidneys are very sensitive to acidosis or inflammation from the continual ingestion of foods such as meats, dairy, coffee, chocolate, etc... kidneys do not do well with high protein foods either...
If you wish to heal from symptoms associated with kidney issues, a 💯 raw food diet consisting of mainly juicy fruits is the key... herbs for the kidneys can also aid in the healing process...
We’ve complicated our diets as a collective... our bodies are not designed to break down complex chemistry (high proteins/complex carbohydrates) day in & day out... fruits require the least digestive energy & leave the least residues within... we eat fruits so that the body has time to return to healing in between meals ...
The truth is simple...
Healing can be simple if we put in the time & learn to trust our bodies & the process it must go through in order to become healthy again...

@maria-mariah I've been thinking a lot about health and diet recently (especially just having seen Food, Inc.). I love "The truth is simple..." because it really is. But such a simple mantra can drastically improve someone's life. I'm already eating healthier after I made a concerted change.
I wrote about how Blockchain can potentially help fix a toxic food system. I don't think Blockchain is the end-all-be-all by any means and we're still far off from seeing that really take afoot.
Education is surely the most important weapon in fighting against the big ag industry. So, thanks for promoting healthy eating!
