When your kidneys hurt and your
back feels sore. don't get scared and
proceed to load your stomach with a
lot Of drugs that excite the kidneys
and irritate the entire urinary tract.
Keep your kidneys clean like you keep
your bowels clean. by flushing them
with a mild. harmless salts which re-
moves the body's urinous waste and
stimulates them to their normal activ-
ity. The function of the kidneys Is
to filter the blood. In - hours they
strain from it 500 grains of acid and
waste, SO we can readily understand
the vital importance Of keeping the
kidneys active.
