My husband had an open surgery last sept 07 due to a staghorn calculus in his left kidney.He is also diagnosed as having a very small stone in his right kidney but we're not sure if it is still there.Can he safely take MX3 herbal capsule and tea to prevent the recurrence of stones?

1. To be sure of recurrence of stone, apart from management one should have a check on common points which can/may lead to stone formation, like:
. monitoring of blood and urine calcium levels [including calcium/vitamin D rich diet/ hyperparathyroidism]
. use of calcium based antacids, being overweight.
. under hydration [lack of water]
. serum uric acid level, use of diuretics, any bowel disorder.

2. although MX3 [mangosteen xanthone] capsule has anti oxidant and anti inflammatory properties, but since there are no APPROVED THERAPEUTIC CLAIMS, it will be best to consult with your Doctor prior to start the same, also since tea contains oxalate and 80% of kidney stones are made of calcium oxalate, thus you should limit tea consumption, but drinking 1-2 cups of herbal/green [not black tea] is safe since they contain only a small amount of oxalate.

3. Drinking enough fluids [hydration] each day is the best way to help prevent most types of kidney stones
. A study found that a daily glass of orange juice can help prevent the recurrence of kidney stones better than other citrus fruit juices.

Diet:
Avoid : brinjal, tomato, turnip,sedentary lifestyle,alcohol,potato,onion,raisins, citrus fruits,cashew nut

Take: old brown rice,horse gram, green gram,ginger,leafy vegetables,boiled water, oil massage.

you may ask for prescription medicines like: chandra prabha vati, gokshuradi guggulu, shweta parpati,yav kshar, tablet calcury, tablet/syrup neeri.

. drink 1 cup of radish leaves for 14 days.
. chew sugarcane pieces and keep swallowing the juice
