Kidny is a combination that cleanses and restores the renal system and is useful for clearing congestion in the prostate gland. It is a general tonic for the kidneys.

Uva ursi contains an active ingredient, called arbutin, which has a very important diuretic and antiseptic action, thus aiding to rid the urinary tract of infection. Uva ursi helps to clean the kidneys and bladder, and is considered excellent in dissolving kidney sediment such as sand, gravel, and even stones.

Buchu is an excellent diuretic. It acts directly in the kidney, increasing the fluids and solids of the urine. It is very useful in treating painful and burning urination, helping and soothing any infection of the genitourinary system.

Parsley is a mild and soothing diuretic. The presence of apiol and other flavonoids stimulates urination and provides relief when urination is painful and incomplete. It is high in vitamins A and C.

Ginger is used here to stimulate peripheral circulation and relieve abdominal cramping.

Marshmallow (Althea officinalis), also known as althea—derived from the Greek word althein, meaning “to heal”—, is known for its mucilaginous qualities, with usage dating back to ancient Greek and Roman cultures. Known for its healing qualities for the kidneys, it is a very soothing herb, high in vitamin A, calcium, zinc, and significant amounts of iron, sodium, iodine, and B-complex vitamins. Like slippery elm, althea reduces inflammation and has a calming effect on the body. Marshmallow has been known to relieve indigestion, kidney problems and stones, urinary tract infections, and even external skin wounds such as boils and abscesses.

Juniper berry is a urinary antiseptic and a good diuretic. It is soothing to the kidneys.

As uva ursi is most effective in an alkaline urine, it is suggested that an alkaline diet be followed when using this herbal formula.
