Slabší angličtina některých našich nových ministrů má snadné řešení
Poznámka: Text podobného obsahu vyšel dříve Davidu Gruberovi na jeho blogu idnes. Tam však bez důležitého odkazu.
Na internetu byl článek o slabší angličtině některých ministrů naší nové vlády. Více či méně kriticky se vyjadřoval o Janě Černochové (obrana), Zbyňku Stanjurovi (finance), Marianu Jurečkovi (práce a sociální věci) a Martinu Baxovi (kultura).
Počet diskusních příspěvků pod článkem za pár dnů dosáhl úctyhodného čísla nad 1200.
Diskutující se v drtivé většině případů rozčilovali, co to je za pořádek. Často celkem logicky uváděli, že na mezinárodní úrovni se ani tak moc nepočítají oficiální jednání, kde je na jemné nuance jazyka i pro pokročilé znalce angličtiny potřebný tlumočník; ale že rozhodující prestiž a vyjednávací výsledky vznikají v kuloárech, mezi čtyřma očima, z rodících se osobních vztahů mezi ministry téhož resortu různých zemí.
Kdo neumí anglicky, je negramotný
No a v civilizovaném světě se dnes už poměrně všeobecně uznává: Kdo neumí anglicky, je negramotný. Kdo umí anglicky polovičatě, je polonegramotný. No, když jste zahraniční politik – kamaraďte se na mezinárodních setkáních s českým ministerským kolegou, kujte spolu spojenecké pikle, když on je polonegramotný… Co si pomyslíte? „On/ona je určitě z nějaké zaostalé země, kde se lidé do ministerských křesel dostávají všelijak…“
Diskutující pod článkem tedy byli většinou destruktivní. Sice oprávněně a logicky, leč destruktivní. Málokdo však byl konstruktivní, tedy hledající a nalézající řešení. A nenašel jsem (přes docela podrobné procházení té diskuse) nikoho, opravdu NIKOHO, kdo by konkrétně upozornil na následující věci. Na které tedy zde upozorňuji já.
Ministr, a vlastně i poslanec, soudce a každý významnější státní úředník, by se měl doučit anglicky (nejméně na úroveň C1) RYCHLE. Měl by si najít způsob, jak se naučit mnohonásobně rychleji než je obvyklé – při současné velké pracovní vytíženosti, při velké zaneprázdněnosti, častém cestování…
In this article, we’re breaking down everything you should know about gout.
What is gout?
Gout is a type of arthritis. Small crystals form inside and around the joints, which can cause sudden, severe pain. There may also be some swelling.
Sometimes a gout attack may start suddenly, while at other times it can be caused by things such as:
A high temperature
Becoming dehydrated
Drinking too much alcohol
Eating a large meal with a lot of fat
Suffering an injury in a joint
Taking medicines for high blood pressure, or diuretics
A gout attack may last for days or weeks, but no matter how long it is, you should seek treatment as soon as you notice any of the symptoms listed below.
What are the symptoms of gout?
The symptoms of gout are:
Sudden, severe pain in a joint
Swollen red skin on and around the painful joint
Hot skin on or around the joint
Fingers, knees, ankles and toes are commonly affected, but any joint can experience symptoms of gout.
The length of time between gout attacks can be weeks, months or years. Most people with gout experience multiple flare-ups throughout the years. If someone gets lots of flare-ups, it’s known as chronic gout.
You may have an infection if:
The pain becomes even more severe
You have a high temperature, but you’re shivering
You feel sick
You can’t eat
Contact your primary care provider if you have any of these symptoms. Getting treatment quickly can minimize any damage caused by the infection.
Who is likely to get gout?
People are more likely to get gout if they:
Are male and over the age of 30
Are overweight
Drink excessive amounts of alcohol, particularly beer or spirits
Eat excessive amounts of red meat or seafood
Have one or more of the following health conditions:
Diabetes
High cholesterol
High blood pressure
Osteoarthritis
Problems with their kidneys
Have been through the menopause
Have family members who have gout (particularly close relatives)
Have had surgery
Have had a recent injury
Take diuretics or medication for high blood pressure
Gout is caused by the build-up of uric acid, which is a byproduct of purines in the blood. Your body gets rid of uric acid when you go to the bathroom. Both these substances are normal, but uric acid can build up in your blood if your body makes too much of it, or if your kidneys don’t function well. Uric acid forms tiny crystals in and around your joints if too much of it builds up. This is what causes the pain and swelling.
Does gout cause any complications?
There are a few possible complications of gout, some physical and some mental.
Joint damage
Perhaps unsurprising, considering how gout affects the joints, frequent flare-ups can lead to joint damage, especially if the gout goes untreated. If the damage is severe, you may need surgery.
Kidney stones
As well as leading to gout, high levels of uric acid can also cause kidney stones to form. Kidney stones are made of minerals and salts which have crystalized and stuck together to form hard deposits.
Kidney stones can make passing urine painful, and you may feel like you need to go to the bathroom more often. Other symptoms include severe pain in the side, back, lower abdomen and groin; blood in the urine; cloudy urine; nausea and vomiting.
Sometimes kidney stones can be passed naturally, which can be uncomfortable and even cause pain. At other times, surgery may be needed to remove them.
Tophi
Tophi are small, white lumps. They form under the skin, and are a result of the build-up of the crystals that form around your joints when you have gout. You’re more likely to get them if you suffer from chronic gout.
Tophi normally form around:
Ears
Elbows
Fingers
Forearms
Heels
Knees
Toes
Sometimes they can be painful, but not always. They may become inflamed and produce discharge, in which case they need to be treated. Inflamed or particularly large tophi may be surgically removed to prevent joint damage. Smaller tophi can be shrunk using a combination of medication and lifestyle changes, of which we’ll discuss more later.
Erosions
Gout can cause bone erosion. When parts of the bone have been eroded, your joint will typically have issues functioning correctly. You may need surgery to correct the issue. One study found that 44% of patients with gout also had bone erosions. Bone erosions were more likely to be seen in those who were older, had had gout for longer and had tophi present.
Anxiety or depression
The symptoms of gout can make it difficult to go about your everyday life. This, in turn, can affect your mood, and in more serious cases may lead to a mental health condition, such as an anxiety disorder or depression.
Anxiety and anxiety disorders
Anxiety is a normal emotion for us, where we might feel tense and worried. An anxiety disorder, on the other hand, involves more than temporary worry. According to the American Psychological Association, an anxiety disorder is characterized by “recurring intrusive thoughts or concerns. They [people with anxiety disorders] may avoid certain situations out of worry. They may also have physical symptoms such as sweating, trembling, dizziness, or a rapid heartbeat.”
Speak to your doctor if you notice:
You feel constantly on edge
You’re finding it difficult to concentrate
You feel restless and irritable
You’re isolating yourself from family and friends
You’re avoiding situations which make you feel anxious
They’ll be able to offer you support, such as referring you for talk therapy, which is also known as psychotherapy. Talk therapy is a way for patients to identify and discuss emotional issues with a mental health professional, as well as create strategies to deal with them. Research shows that talk therapy is one of the most effective ways to treat an anxiety disorder, but it can also be useful for those who need a safe, confidential space to talk about their feelings and worries.
Depression
The American Psychological Association defines depression as “extreme sadness or despair that lasts more than days. It interferes with the activities of daily life and can cause physical symptoms such as pain, weight loss or gain, sleeping pattern disruptions or lack of energy. People with depression may also experience an inability to concentrate, feelings of worthlessness or excessive guilt and recurrent thoughts of death or suicide.”
Speak to your doctor if you notice:
You feel sad or have a low mood for more than a few days
You feel hopeless
You have low self-esteem
You feel tearful
You feel guilty
You feel irritable
You lose motivation
You lose interest in activities that you usually enjoy
You’re indecisive
You have thoughts of harming yourself
You have suicidal thoughts
Get help from a medical professional as soon as possible if you have suicidal thoughts. You can call or text 988 to reach the 998 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline and receive emotional support. They also offer a chat service called Lifeline, and a Spanish-language phone line. All these services are free, confidential, and available 24/7.
Your doctor will be able to support you by referring you for talk therapy, where you can discuss your experience with a mental health professional. They may also prescribe antidepressants, a type of medication which reduces the symptoms of depression. There are many types of antidepressants available, so your doctor will prescribe one depending on what other medical conditions you have and which medications you already take.
How to treat gout
Can gout be cured?
Gout is an incurable condition, but fortunately there are effective ways in which a doctor can treat the symptoms. While treatment is normally required throughout your life, it can sometimes be so effective that it prevents you from having any more gout attacks, as long as you continue to follow your program.
Seeing a doctor
It’s important to see your primary care provider if you have symptoms of gout. They’ll be able to refer you to someone who can diagnose it, or they may identify a condition which has similar symptoms (for example, infected joints). Either way, your doctor will be able to advise on the best treatment and management of your condition.
You can help your doctor by making note of the following before your appointment:
Your symptoms, when they started, and how often you experience them
Whether anything seems to trigger your symptoms
Any other medical conditions you have, and whether you’re taking an medications or supplements for them
Whether there’s history of gout in your family
Your typical diet and alcohol intake
Any recent changes in your life (for example, something that may cause extra stress)
Any questions you have for the doctor
This will help you remember everything you want to tell them.
You’ll likely be referred to a rheumatologist. Rheumatologists specialise in diagnosing and treating conditions (including gout) which affect the muscles, bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons. You can also find a rheumatologist using the American College of Rheumatology database.
The rheumatologist may:
Carry out a blood test to measure how much uric acid is in your blood.
Scan the affected joint(s). An ultrasound and dual-energy computerized tomography (DECT) can find urate crystals in joints, while X-rays are used to investigate other possible causes of joint inflammation.
Use a needle to take a sample of the fluid inside the joint so it can be tested for the amount of uric acid present.
Once you have a diagnosis, your primary care provider will be able to help you manage your gout.
If you’ve been diagnosed with gout
See your primary care provider if you have a gout flare-up and the medication you’ve been prescribed doesn’t start working within two days.
Treating gout
Gout can be treated and managed with medication. There are two types of medication: one reduces pain and inflammation, and one lowers the amount of uric acid in your blood.
Examples of gout medication which reduces pain inflammation:
Colchicine, such as Colcrys, Gloperba and Mitigare. It decreases swelling and the build-up of uric acid.
Corticosteroids, such as Prednisone. This type of medication reduces inflammation and can be given to you as pills or an injection.
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Some of these are available over the counter (Ibuprofen, Naproxen Sodium), while others are stronger and therefore only available on prescription (Indomethacin, Celecoxib). They reduce inflammation.
Examples of gout medication which lowers the amount of uric acid in the blood:
Allopurinol and Febuxostat, which both limit the amount of uric acid the body makes.
Probenecid, which improves the removal of uric acid from the body.
During a gout flare-up, there are things you can do to stay as comfortable as possible, including:
Take your medication as you’ve been instructed to. Some people find it helpful to store it in a dosette box, in which you can organise your pills by day (and sometimes by times within that day). This makes it easier to see whether you’ve taken what you need to.
Don’t put any pressure on the affected joint. Raise it if possible – for example, if the gout attack is in your knee then sit with your foot up.
Apply something cold to the affected joint, such as an ice pack or bag of frozen food wrapped in a towel. Keep your cold pack on the joint for up to 20 minutes at a time (any longer and you risk damaging the skin).
Try to keep your duvet off the affected joint when you go to bed, as this can apply unwanted pressure.
By seeking medical treatment, you can deal with the symptoms to relieve the pain and pressure of gout.
How to manage gout
Gout can affect your daily activities. Luckily, self-management strategies can be used in conjunction with the medications previously mentioned to manage the condition, prevent flare-ups and improve your quality of life. For example, there are dietary and lifestyle changes you can make. Let’s look at some of these below.
Vegetables, including dark greens, red and yellow vegetables, beans, peas and lentils
Fruits of all types
Grains, especially wholegrains
Dairy products, including low-fat milk, yogurt and cheese, or fortified dairy alternatives
Sources of protein, including lean meat, poultry, eggs, beans, peas, lentils, nuts and seeds
Oils, including vegetable oils
A healthy diet also limits the level of sugar, sodium and saturated fat consumed.
There are some foods it’s better for people with gout to avoid, as they may cause a flare-up. These include:
Red meat, such as beef, lamb and pork
Organ meat, such as kidneys and liver
Seafood, particularly anchovies, mussels, sardines, scallops, trout and tuna
These foods are high in purines. Purines cause the formation of uric acid when they break down in the blood, and too much uric acid can lead to gout.
One result of a healthy diet is weight loss, which can be beneficial for those with gout as it relieves pressure from the joints, especially the hips and knees.
Stay hydrated
Drinking plenty of fluids is important for humans for many reasons. Your body needs water in order to:
Get rid of waste
Regulate your temperature
Lubricate your joints
Protect tissues
Without water, your body can’t function properly. You’ll feel tired and dizzy, and may have a dry mouth and a headache.
Water is best for hydration, but other options include milk and herbal teas. If you prefer a little more flavour, you can add fruit like lemon or lime. But limit sweet drinks like soda, as these contain a lot of sugar.
There’s no clear answer on how much water you should drink each day, as it can vary depending on your health and activity levels. As a guide, the U.S. National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine state the adequate amount of water per day is:
3.7 liters for men
2.7 liters for women
Limiting alcohol intake is also very important for gout sufferers, because alcohol is a source of purines. In particular, beer and hard liquor have large stores of purines. Studies have shown that alcohol can be a trigger for a gout flare-up, although lifestyle factors were more of an influence among those with early onset gout (i.e. those who were diagnosed with gout before the age of 40).
The Mayo Clinic recommends moderate alcohol intake, which they define as:
Up to one drink per day for women of all ages
Up to two drinks per day for men ages 65 and younger
Up to one drink per day for men older than 65
One drink is:
One 12-ounce (oz.) glass of beer with 5 percent alcohol by volume (ABV)
One 8- to 9-oz. glass of malt liquor with 7 percent ABV
One 5-oz. glass of wine with 12 percent ABV
One 1.5-oz. shot of distilled spirits with 40 percent ABV
It may seem counterintuitive to exercise when you have a condition that affects your joints, but physical activity is hugely beneficial to your overall health. It strengthens your bones and muscles, lowers blood pressure and cholesterol, reduces the risk of illnesses like heart disease and stroke, improves brain health and can help you do everyday activities more easily.
The key is to avoid exercise which puts a lot of pressure on your joints, and instead try low-impact activities. Walking, cycling and swimming are all good for anyone with joint issues for this reason.
Stay in touch with your doctor
Your doctor will be able to help you follow your recommended treatment plan and answer any questions you might have, as well as monitoring your general health.
Continue taking your medication
It may be tempting to stop taking medication if your symptoms have stopped. However, it’s important to keep taking it as directed, as the medication is what keeps uric acid levels at low enough levels to prevent a gout flare-up.
With careful management, people with gout can still lead full, active lives. Take action today to improve your quality of life and stay on top of your health and well-being.

Are you happy enough? Have you tried the pleasing secret of attraction, the mentality of abundance? Does positive thinking not work for you? Being happy is no secret. It’s just a meaningful job to yourself. Many examples will show you how to increase your short-term and long-term feelings of happiness. Here are the first two tips. Listen to the birds singing for at least 15 minutes a day.
Write down every day what you are grateful for and what you have precious. At home and in the office where you work, surround yourself with green colors( a green pad, a mug, paint your room green), it helps to induce a feeling of happiness. Every day, write in your diary two things that you are grateful for and what you have accomplished. Enjoy the little things and be grateful for every beautiful day.
Step 2 – Ahealthier diet helps
The basis is a varied and balanced diet, plenty of quality protein, fruits and vegetables. Increase your intake of whole grain rye flour. Eat regularly, make time for food. Add five servings of fruits or vegetables a day to your diet or a fresh fruit and vegetable juice, which is an important habit to learn.
Carefully prepared potatoes are a source of vitamin C.
Are You interested in the composition of what you eat and buy? Read Food Labels!! And what to watch out for? Excessive consumption of sugar, salt, fat and is very dangerous. It is important not to overeat or starve. Insomnia, frequent awakenings, nervousness, this could be post-covid syndrome? Limit or completely stop the intake of sugar in food, we mean sweets e.t.c..
You shall read the food packaging and its composition carefully.
Step 3 – Regular fitness
The biggest enemy of a healthy lifestyle is a sedentary lifestyle. Individuals who run a regular fitness for at least half an hour five days a week have telomere age ten years younger than people with a sedentary lifestyle. Telomeres are related to cell viability. High-intensity interval training, alternating between small and high loads, also has a positive effect on health. It can be running, skipping rope or strengthening with your own weight. Move in the fresh air for at least 30 minutes daily.
Step 4- Stress management
Stress has been experienced by people since time immemorial, it is an important mechanism for survival, as it awakens a person to perform in pursuit of prey or escape from a predator. In ancient times, however, stress was more striking, while today it is long-lasting, which exacerbates the human body. The already mentioned balanced diet and exercise itself help to fight stress. But stress is largely associated with the state of mind, ie individual. It is true that a situation that is extremely burdensome for one person can be perceived as another matter of course and not stressful. Stress cannot be fought. It is possible to avoid stress – stressful situations by a good organization of one’s own life, i.e. by the presence of some rules and a plan. Learn “first aid from stressful situations”.
How? It consists in consciously slowing down breathing at the moment of stress, which will gradually reduce the heart rate, relax the muscles. As the body begins to return to normal, so does the brain.
TIP.Also, start practicing yoga, meditation, or other healthy exercises that otherwise have beneficial effects on your mental state.
Step 5 – Good sleep
People who follow the rules of sleep hygiene, exercise regularly, are resistant to stress and take care of their diet, most of them have a good night’s sleep. As many as 60 percent of people sleep and fall asleep, doctors say. The most common type is inorganic insomnia, which is a condition of insufficient quality or quantity of sleep. Patients are said to most often report difficulty falling asleep, but they also describe intermittent sleep or early morning awakening. Most patients then expect a quick, instant solution in the form of a sleeping pill.
TIP. Following the “basic rules of sleep hygiene”, many people have no idea of their existence. Common mistakes include, for example, alcohol consumption and meals just before bedtime, watching TV in the bedroom, drinking coffee in the late afternoon, staring late into the night at computer or mobile screens, or zero physical activity during the day. Listen to relaxing music.
Step 6 – Preventive medical examination
Don’t forget to have regular preventive check-ups with your general practitioner-doctor, ophthalmologist and dentist. Follow preventive check-ups with your general practitioner, within 2 years and a dentist every 6 months. Measure your pressure, condition, LDL cholesterol, PSA, etc..
Step 7 – Prevention and dietary supplements
Talk to your dietitian about what supplements to supplement if you suffer from long-term stress and do not have a varied and balanced diet, plenty of quality protein, , fiber, fruits and vegetables. Try for example Lifestyles Herbal Products. Follow the drinking regime.
TIP. Watercress. Watercress can be grown at home, so you have a daily crop of nutrients!
Step 8 – Incorporate these steps into your New Year’s plans, strategies and resolutions.

Step 9 – Regular rest and vacation
Treat yourself to a vacation where you can relax and forget “Your worries & problems at work” as needed, don’t skimp on it, it’s an investment for you. Pack your travel INTRA capsules. Try fresh juice with Intra.
Adding the right produce, nuts, and seeds to our diet is our top strategy for good mental health. Fresh produce like kale, berries, and mushrooms can curb symptoms of depression.
Among all the strategies to safeguard my mental health, eating the right foods ties for first (with getting adequate sleep) as the most important. Recently I did some substantial research on which foods promote sanity and which ones send an alarm to your limbic system (emotion center) and cause inflammation. I decided to eliminate gluten, dairy, caffeine, and sugar from my diet. I also started eating fresh produce throughout my day and made the commitment to hit the grocery store a few times a week.
As a result, I feel more emotionally resilient and less vulnerable to the impact of stress and drama on my mood.

Greens are the first of the G-BOMBS (greens, beans, onions, mushrooms, berries, seeds) that Joel Fuhrman, MD, describes in his book The End of Dieting — the foods with the most powerful immune-boosting and anticancer effects.
“These foods help prevent the cancerous transformation of normal cells and keep the body armed and ready to attack any precancerous or cancerous cells that may arise,” he writes. Leafy greens fight against all kinds of inflammation, and according to a study published in March 2015 in JAMA Psychiatry, severe depression has been linked with brain inflammation. Leafy greens are especially important because they contain oodles of vitamins A, C, E, and K, minerals, and phytochemicals. NutriaPlus can be the right product too.
2. Walnuts: Rich in Mood-Boosting Omega-3 Fatty Acids
Walnuts are one of the richest plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids, and numerous studies have demonstrated how omega-3 fatty acids support brain function and reduce depression symptoms. A study published in the British Journal of Psychiatry is especially interesting. The lead authors ask the question, Why is the vast part biological research — from genetics to psychopharmacology — concentrated on neurotransmitters, when the mammalian brain is approximately 80 percent fat (lipids), and there is a growing body of research demonstrating the critical role of lipids in brain functioning? What’s more, the shift in the Western diet away from these necessary omega-3 fatty acids over the last century parallels the large rise in psychiatric disorders in that time.
3. Avocado: Its Oleic Acid Gives You Brainpower
You can eat a whole one every day in my salad for lunch. Avocados are power foods because, again, they contain healthy fat that your brain needs in order to run smoothly. Three-fourths of the calories of an avocado are from fat, mostly monounsaturated fat, in the form of oleic acid. An average avocado also contains 4 grams of protein, higher than other fruits, and is filled with vitamin K, different kinds of vitamin B (B9, B6, and B5), vitamin C, and vitamin E12. Finally, they are low in sugar and high in dietary fiber, containing about 11 grams each.
4. Berries: Full of Cell-Repairing Antioxidants
Blueberries, raspberries, strawberries, and blackberries are some of the highest antioxidant foods available to us. I try to have a variety for breakfast in the morning. In a study published in the Journal of Nutritional and Environmental Medicine, patients were treated for two years with antioxidants or placebos. After two years those who were treated with antioxidants had a significantly lower depression score. Antioxidants are like DNA repairmen. They go around fixing your cells and preventing them from getting cancer and other illnesses.
5. Mushrooms: Helpful Tools to Lower Blood Sugar
Here are two good reasons why mushrooms are good for your mental health. First, their chemical properties oppose insulin, which helps lower blood sugar levels, evening out your mood. They also are like a probiotic in that they promote healthy gut bacteria. And since the nerve cells in our gut manufacture 80 to 90 percent of our body’s serotonin — the critical neurotransmitter that keeps us sane — we can’t afford to not pay attention to our intestinal health.
6. Onions: Layered With Cancer-Fighting Allium
You won’t find this item on most lists of mood foods. However, it’s included in Dr. Fuhrman’s G-BOMBS because onions and all allium vegetables (garlic, leeks, chives, shallots, and spring onions) have been associated with a decreased risk of several cancers.
“Eating onions and garlic frequently is associated with a reduced risk of cancers of the digestive tract,” explains Fuhrman. “These vegetables also contain high concentrations of anti-inflammatory flavonoid antioxidants that contribute to their anticancer properties.” Again, if you consider the relationship between your digestive tract and your brain, it is understandable why a food that can prevent cancers of the gut would also benefit your mood.
7. Tomatoes: Packed With Depression Fighters
You can try to eat at least six baby tomatoes in my salad each day for lunch because tomatoes contain lots of folic acid and alpha-lipoic acid, both of which are good for fighting depression. According to research published in the Journal of Psychiatry and Neuroscience, many studies show an elevated incidence of folate deficiency in patients with depression. In most of the studies, about one-third of depression patients were deficient in folate.
Folic acid can prevent an excess of homocysteine — which restricts the production of important neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine — from forming in the body. Alpha-lipoic acid keeps coming up as I read more about nutrition and the brain, so I have begun to take it as a supplement, as well. It helps the body convert glucose into energy, and therefore stabilizes mood.
8. Beans: Satisfyingly High in Mood-Stabilizing Fiber
“Beans, beans, good for the heart. The more you eat, the more you … smile.” They make the G-BOMB list because they can act as anti-diabetes and weight-loss foods. They are good for my mood because my body (and every body) digests them slowly, which stabilizes blood sugar levels. Any food that assists me in evening out my blood sugar levels is my friend. They are the one starch that I allow myself, so on top of a salad, they help mitigate my craving for bread and other processed grains. You can try the dietary fiber or Lifestyles FiberLife.
9. Seeds: Small but Mighty Sources of Omega-3s
When I’m close to reaching for potato chips or any kind of comfort food, I allow myself a few handfuls of sunflower seeds or any other kind of seed I can find in our kitchen. Seeds are the last food on Fuhrman’s G-BOMBS list.
Flaxseeds, hemp seeds, and chia seeds are especially good for your mood because they are rich in omega-3 fatty acids. Fuhrman writes, “Not only do seeds add their own spectrum of unique disease-fighting substances to the dietary landscape, but the fat in seeds increases the absorption of protective nutrients in vegetables eaten at the same meal.”
10. Apples: Ripe With Antioxidants and Fiber
An apple a day could — if eaten with the rest of these foods — keep the psychiatrist away, at least for stretches of time. Like berries, apples are high in antioxidants, which can help to prevent and repair oxidation damage and inflammation on the cellular level. They are also full of soluble fiber, which balances blood sugar swings. A snack I have grown to love is almond butter on apple slices. I get my omega-3 fatty acid along with some fiber.

Once your health care provider finds out why you are forming stones, he or she will give you tips on how to prevent them. This may include changing your diet and taking certain medications. There is no “one-size-fits-all” diet for preventing kidney stones. Everyone is different.
Your diet may not be causing your kidney stones to form. But there are dietary changes that you can make to stop stones from continuing to form. Below are some tips.
If you are not producing enough urine, your health care provider will recommend you drink at least 3 liters of liquid each day. This equals about 3 quarts (about ten 10-ounce glasses). This is a great way to lower your risk of forming new stones. Remember to drink more to replace fluids lost when you sweat from exercise or in hot weather. All fluids count toward your fluid intake. But it’s best to drink mostly no-calorie or low-calorie drinks. This may mean limiting sugar-sweetened or alcoholic drinks.
Knowing how much you drink during the day can help you understand how much you need to drink to produce 2.5 liters of urine. Use a household measuring cup to measure how much liquid you drink for a day or two. Drink from bottles or cans with the fluid ounces listed on the label. Keep a log, and add up the ounces at the end of the day or 24-hour period. Drink enough fluids each day, how?Read more…
Use this total to be sure you are reaching your daily target urine amount of at least 85 ounces (2.5 liters) of urine daily. Health care providers recommend people who form cystine stones drink more liquid than other stone formers. Usually 4 liters of liquid is advised to reduce cystine levels in your urine.
Tip! Use the Intra Herbal Juice 10 minutes before meals with a glass of an infantile water. We recommend long term usage of Intra.
There are several organs that expulse invading toxins from our remarkable organism – the human body. The most important role in this process belongs to the liver, which is responsible for all chemical activity in the body. In particular, it is active in the processing of digested food. The liver makes the most serious “decisions” in food absorption. The most significant and remarkable organ has the capability to regenerate itself. I f we only had half of our liver, it would still be capable of performing all its functions. Read more…
Reduce the amount of salt in your diet.
This tip is for people with high sodium intake and high urine calcium or cystine. Sodium can cause both urine calcium and cystine to be too high. Your health care provider may advise you to avoid foods that have a lot of salt. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and other health groups advise not eating more than 2,300 mg of salt per day. The following foods are high in salt and should be eaten in moderation:
Cheese (all types)
Most frozen foods and meats, including salty cured meats, deli meats (cold cuts), hot dogs, bratwurst and sausages
Canned soups and vegetables
Breads, bagels, rolls and baked goods
Salty snacks, like chips and pretzels
Bottled salad dressings and certain breakfast cereals
Pickles and olives
Casseroles, other “mixed” foods, pizza and lasagna
Canned and bottled sauces
Certain condiments, table salt and some spice blends
The main causes of chronic kidney disease are diabetes and high blood pressure, please control them.
Eat the recommended amount of calcium.
If you take calcium and magnesium supplements, make sure you aren’t getting too much calcium. On the other hand make sure you aren’t getting too little calcium and magnesium either. Talk with your health care provider or dietitian about whether you need supplements. Good sources of calcium to choose from often are those low in salt. Eating calcium and magnesium-rich foods or beverages with meals every day is a good habit. There are many non-dairy sources of calcium, such as calcium-fortified non-dairy milks. There are good choices, especially if you avoid dairy.
You can usually get enough calcium from your diet without supplements if you eat three-to-four servings of calcium-rich food. Many foods and beverages have calcium in them. Some foods and beverages that might be easy to include on a daily basis with meals are:
Add Magnesium rich foods
Magnesium is an extremely important mineral. It’s involved in hundreds of chemical reactions in your body and helps you maintain good health. Unfortunately, many people don’t reach the recommended daily intake of 400 mg . However, eating foods high in magnesium can help you meet the daily requirement. Here are 10 healthy foods that are high in magnesium: Dark Chocolate, Nuts, Whole Grains, Fatty Fish( salmon, mackerel and halibut), Avokados, Legumes, Seeds, Tofu, Bananas, Leafy greens.
Eat plenty of fruits and vegetables.
Eating at least five servings of fruits and vegetables daily is recommended for all people who form kidney stones. Eating fruits and vegetables give you potassium, fiber, magnesium, antioxidants, phytate and citrate, all of which may help keep stones from forming. A serving means one piece of fruit or one potato or one cup of raw vegetables. For cooked vegetables, a serving is ½ cup. If you are worried you may not be eating the right amount of fruits and vegetables, talk to your health care provider about what will be best for you.
Eat foods with low oxalate levels.
This recommendation is for patients with high urine oxalate. Eating calcium-rich foods (see table above) with meals can often control the oxalate level in your urine. Urinary oxalate is controlled because eating calcium lowers the oxalate level in your body. But if doing that does not control your urine oxalate, you may be asked to eat less of certain high-oxalate foods. Nearly all plant foods have oxalate, but a few foods contain a lot of it. These include spinach, rhubarb and almonds. It is usually not necessary to completely stop eating foods that contain oxalate. This needs to be determined individually and depends on why your oxalate levels are high in the first place.
Eat less meat.
If you make cystine or calcium oxalate stones and your urine uric acid is high, your health care provider may tell you to eat less animal protein.If your health care provider thinks your diet is increasing your risk for stones, he or she will tell you to eat less meat, fish, seafood, poultry, pork, lamb, mutton and game meat than you eat now. This might mean eating these foods once or twice rather than two or three times a day, fewer times during the week, or eating smaller portions when you do eat them. The amount to limit depends on how much you eat now and how much your diet is affecting your uric acid levels.
Medications
Changing your diet and increasing fluids may not be enough to prevent stones from forming. Your health care provider may give you medications to take to help with this. The type of stone and the urine abnormalities you have will help your health care provider decide if you need medicine and which medicine is best. Common medications include:
Thiazide diuretics
are for patients who have calcium stones and high levels of calcium in their urine. Thiazides lower urine calcium by helping the kidney take calcium out of the urine and put it back in the blood stream. When taking thiazides, you need to limit how much salt you take in, as these medications work best when urine sodium is low.
Potassium citrate
is for patients with calcium stones and low urinary citrate, and for those with uric acid and cystine stones. Potassium citrate makes the urine less acidic or more alkaline (basic). This helps prevent cystine and uric acid stones. It also raises the citrate level in the urine, helping to prevent calcium stones.
Allopurinol
is frequently prescribed for gout, which is caused by high uric acid in the blood. Allopurinol not only lowers the level of uric acid in the blood but also in the urine, so it may also be prescribed to help prevent calcium and uric acid stones.
Acetohydroxamic acid (AHA)
is for patients who produce struvite or infection stones. These stones form because of repeated urinary tract infections (UTI). AHA makes the urine unfavorable for struvite stones to form. The best way to prevent stuvite stones is to prevent repeated UTIs caused by specific types of bacteria and to completely remove the stones with surgery.
Cystine-binding thiol drugs
are used only for patients who form cystine stones. These medications (d-penicillamine or tiopronin) bind to cystine in the urine and form a compound that is less likely than cystine to crystallize in the urine. This drug is used when other measures fail, such as raising fluid intake, reducing salt intake or using potassium citrate.
Vitamin supplements and kidney stones
Yes. They should be used carefully as some can increase your risk of forming kidney stones. Your health care provider and a dietitian may be good sources of information about over-the-counter nutritional supplements.
