This cleanse was borrowed from the book God Helps Those Who Help Themselves by Hanna Kroeger.

KIDNEY CLEANSE
You can eat food on this cleanse.
Duration: 5 weeks
Remedy:
-
Dark grape Juice (Concord, organic)
-
Cream of Tartar
-
Teas: Knotgrass and Chamomile
Directions:
-
Mix 7 ounces of grape juice with 1/ tsp cream of tartar.
-
Take 2 ounces 3 times per day before meals (you will have an extra ounce for spillage/waste; finish it with the last dosage of the day).
-
Mix Knotgrass and Chamomile in equal parts (I used 2 tbsps. of each) in 1 quart of hot water to make a tea (use a steeper).
Directions for tea:
Drink 1 quart (4 cups) of tea per day for 5 weeks. (Drink a little throughout the day, and don’t ice it).
EXTRA HELP
This is a Kidney Cleanse (after you have completed the above 5-week cleanse):
Duration: 1 day
Remedy: Raw beet juice
Directions:
- Make an 8-ounce glass of raw beet juice and drink 1 teaspoon at a time throughout the day.
- Drink water as well.
- Make the 8 ounces last the whole day, with nothing eaten that day.
The urine turns red as the system absorbs the beet juice drop by drop. It is good to do every six months.
