Question

Is drinking cranberry juice or lemonade good for you if you have kidney stone?

Answer 1

Probably not. The acids will probably be damaging. But maybe not the cranberry juice. It's known to have a lot of antioxidants...but if you really want it to work good, buy the unsweetened kind. It tastes kind of gross, but it's really good for you and might help. Good luck! :)

Answer 2

It isn't good or bad for you, any fluid is good, you get kidney stones usually because you have sediment that settles in the bottom of your kidneys. Drinking water or any fluid helps to keep your kidneys flushed of this sediment, but after you have a stone these fluids won't dissolve the stone or prevent them from occurring. Keep hydrated everyday to prevent them.

Answer 3

No. The acid can be damaging. Especially the lemonade.
