Lemon juice to prevent kidney stones


I have heard that lemon juice can help prevent kidney stones. Is this true?

Almost every juice has at one time been suggested as a cure for kidney stones. Theoretically some juices may decrease formation of kidney stones by altering the pH but no one has ever proven this theory. The one advantage of juices is they are fluid in nature and the more fluid you drink, the greater the chance of flushing the stone out. There is no particular juice recommended. If you do not like juicing or have money to buy these expensive beverages, just drink ample water.
