Kidney stones are on the rise — causing immense discomfort and disruption in millions of lives. But new research from NUTRITION 2025 has given us hope: certain natural supplements may prevent kidney stone formation, growth, and aggregation at the cellular level.
What’s even more exciting? Some of these active compounds may already be available right here in South Africa, not just in capsules from overseas, but in our own healing plants.
At Imsyser, we’re always exploring the latest science to connect it with safe, effective, and natural solutions. Let’s explore what the science says — and how the most natural plant solution from South Africa, in synergy with Imsyser’s cleansing approach, might offer protection against painful kidney stones.
New Research: Natural Compounds That Block Kidney Stone Formation
A groundbreaking study from Thailand, presented at the 2025 American Society for Nutrition meeting, tested five natural compounds on calcium oxalate — the mineral responsible for 80% of kidney stones.
Here’s what researchers found:
| Natural Compound | Action on Kidney Stone Crystals |
|---|---|
| EGCG (from green tea) | Inhibits formation & growth |
| NAC (N-acetylcysteine) | Inhibits aggregation |
| Resveratrol | Inhibits growth (but may promote aggregation) |
| Caffeine | Inhibits formation |
| Trigonelline | Inhibits growth & aggregation |
Key Insight: The most effective prevention strategy would involve a blend of compounds — one that blocks stone formation, slows their growth, and prevents them from clumping.
South Africa’s Healing Superstar: Chaya – A Natural Oxalate Regulator?
While EGCG and NAC are gaining global attention, one of South Africa’s most versatile healing plants, Chaya (Cnidoscolus aconitifolius), may already contain many of the same protective properties:
Why Chaya Deserves a Spotlight:
- High in flavonoids & polyphenols (antioxidants similar to EGCG)
- Natural diuretic and detoxifying effect (supporting kidney function)
- Rich in magnesium and potassium – two minerals shown to reduce oxalate stone risk
- Contains natural chlorophyll – linked to reducing oxidative stress in kidneys
- Anti-inflammatory & antimicrobial – protecting urinary tract and kidney tissues
While Chaya hasn’t yet been formally tested in kidney stone assays, its phytochemical profile matches many of the protective compounds now under study — making it a potential native contender in stone prevention strategies.
To sum up – Imsyser’s Natural Kidney Stone Prevention Protocol
To support kidney health and reduce the risk of kidney stones, Imsyser recommends a gentle but effective cleanse-based approach, using nutrients and detoxification support that naturally protect against crystal build-up and oxidative damage. All of this as part of the NEWSTART principles.
Start with Step 1: Deep Daily Hydration + Mineral Balance
- Drink 2.5 – 3 litres of good clean water daily. During an initial detox 2-3 weeks of distilled water may be advised under the administration of your health advisor.
- Add Chaya Powder (simple green smoothie style with lemon juice) with to support natural detox and mineral regulation
Got to Step 2: Anti-Inflammatory, Anti-Oxalate Support
- Combine Imsyser Chaya with a diet low in high-oxalate foods (like spinach, rhubarb, beets).
- Consider adding green tea (EGCG source) or NAC supplements if available and suitable.
Take Step 3: Gut-Kidney Connection
- Take Imsyser’s 12-Strain Fermented Liquid Pre & Probiotic to support healthy microbiome function, which assists in oxalate metabolism and toxin elimination. The Gut-Kidney Axis is never discussed but a reality.
✔️ Optional solution to start the cleansing process: Imsyser Deep Intestinal Cleanse
- Regular use (4+ times a year) to support full-body detox, bowel clearance, and reduced stone-promoting buildup. I prefer my clients start with a Parasite Cleanse to start the journey.
Why Natural Solutions Matter
Unlike pharmaceutical drugs that may come with side effects, plant-based and fermented solutions work with your body — supporting the immune system, kidneys, liver, and gut all at once.
We want gentle, proven, and affordable solutions — not just quick fixes.
