Celery: Eat as a preventative measure. Pomegranate: Grind a tablespoon of pomegranate into a fine paste along with a cup of horse gram (kulthi) soup. Use two tablespoons of horse gram. Grapes: An excellent cure for kidney stones. Watermelon: Has the highest concentration of water among all fruits and is rich in potassium salts. Watermelon Seed: Edgar Cayce on Kindey Stones: "But at least once a day, three days a week, do take watermelon seed tea as a part of the water. This would be prepared by pouring a pint of boiling water over a tablespoonful of watermelon seed (ground or cut) and allowing it to steep. Let it cool, then strain and drink. This will clarify those conditions that cause reactions in the kidneys and bladder, for, the lack of eliminations and the slowing up of the circulation causes a greater quantity of drosses to be held in the system, and these need to be eliminated from the body. More will be eliminated through using this stimuli for the kidney activity than in most any way".
