Urolithiasis includes kidney stones, ureteral stones, bladder stones, urethral stones, etc. Guangxi is a region with a high prevalence of urolithiasis. Although with the development of technology, more than 90% of stones can be cured without surgery, its high recurrence rate is still a headache. Good dietary habits can play a role in prevention. First and foremost, the most important and simple thing is to increase the amount of water you drink. Do not wait until you are thirsty to think of drinking water. You should make sure that your daily urine output is at least 2000ml. However, it is difficult to measure urine volume every time you urinate in real life. A simple way to measure the lack of water intake is to observe the urine that is passed. When you notice that the color of urine is yellow and the odor is strong, drink water quickly. Secondly, since a diet high in sugar, animal protein and animal fat is associated with the formation of urinary stones, you should usually try to reduce the intake of these foods and should instead consume more fiber-rich foods as appropriate. Finally, the diet can be adjusted appropriately for different stone components. The majority of urinary stones are calcium-containing stones. For such calcium-containing stones, such as calcium oxalate and calcium carbonate stones, you should eat less calcium-containing foods such as milk, various dairy products, soy products, chocolate, nuts, bone broth, etc. For oxalic acid stones, you should eat less oxalic acid-rich foods such as spinach, tomatoes, asparagus, etc. and drink less strong tea. Uric acid stones should eat less purine-rich foods. Animal offal such as liver, kidneys (loin) and seafood such as fish, shrimp, clams and crabs contain more purines and should be eaten sparingly. Meat and peas in your recipes should also be reduced appropriately. In addition, reducing alcohol intake also helps to reduce the chance of uric acid crystals forming, and alcohol should be abstained from if necessary. The above talks about the different dietary requirements for stones of different composition, so how can you know what composition your stones are? It is very simple, just give your doctor the stones that have been surgically removed or naturally expelled. A routine stone composition test analysis costs only a few dollars and you can get the results the same day.
