FYI....For several years, I had kidney stone attacks 2-3 times a year...excruciating pain! as I'm sure you now know. On one occasion I was treated (in emerg) by a new Urologist and he told me to drink 2 litres of water daily and add 1/2 c. lemon juice to it (I use the bottled juice concentrate). I have been doing this for about 5 yrs now and haven't had an attack since. Apparently, the acid prevents the stones from forming....amazzzzing!
