The kidneys are extremely sensitive to damage from pain relievers, antibiotics, heavy metals, solvents, bacteria, toxins, herbicides and the thousands of chemicals that are in our environment. Kidney infections can happen when bacteria move up from the bladder, especially if there is blocked urine flow from a tumor, enlarged prostate or stones. If the kidneys do not work properly to eliminate salt and other poisons, toxins may accumulate in the blood resulting in kidney infection or other kidney problem. Herbal remedies for kidney infection are often diuretic, meaning they increase the flow of urine to wash out toxins, bacteria and infection. Kidney herbs that are antiseptic can help clear infections. Immune building herbs strengthen the immune system to fight the infection. * Buchu is a diuretic that flushes out toxins. It also has antiseptic properties which fights inflammation and infections. * Dandelion cleans the kidney by flushing out toxins. However, unlike other cleansers, dandelion doesn’t lead to potassium loss. It also helps reduces kidney infection and inflammation. * Horsetail is a diuretic which helps with urinary tract infections (UTIs). Use horsetail in either a tincture or capsule. You can also make herbal tea with horsetail by steeping three tsp. of the dried herb into one cup of hot water for 5 to 10 minutes. Drink the mixture three times per day. Be sure to drink lots of water while taking horsetail and take a multivitamin or B complex vitamin every day. People with kidney diseases and heart conditions should not take horsetail except under doctor’s supervision. Do not use for a prolonged period of time. * Cleavers is also a diuretic which helps flush out toxins. Especially excellent as a kidney cleanse. * Uva Ursi (bearberry), is one of the more powerful home remedies for kidney infection because it is antibacterial and helps combats infection.
