In this month's "Blog" post I am going to share some information I did not know well! How to "Pee " better. Wierd topic huh!
This all started with a Facebook (FB) message from one of my FB friends who has an acquaintance with kidney issues and wanted to know more about what Young Living had to offer? This person had developed gout from decreased kidney function.
Since the kidney function was the source of gout, I started to research the kidney subject by referring to Jen O'Sullivans "Young Living Supplements Desk Reference.
I think it may be safe to assume we all know that kidneys are a key gland in your body and we have two of them!
The kidney's job is to filter your blood to remove wastes and control the body's fluid balance. What I did not know is that "all" of your blood passes through your kidneys about 40 times a day! That is why you have to "pee" so often!
When the blood comes into the kidneys, waste gets removed, and salt, water, and minerals are adjusted as needed. The filtered blood goes back into the body. The "waste" gets turned into urine that travels to your bladder......then you "pee" out the waste.
So if you have decreased kidney function your blood is not being cleaned properly which leads to "pee" problems! Ok, so much for the anatomy lesson. Now on to a solution option!
I did not know that Young Living has a liquid supplement called "K&B". K is for Kidney and B for Bladder....duh! According to Jen O'Sullivan, K&B is a liquid tincture (concentrated herbal extracts) that is a must for renal system support. It supports the renal system to help increase urination and the liver to help support detoxification. It contains natural antioxidants and natural anti-inflammatory properties. It can be taken by adding to distilled water or added directly to veggie capsules.
CAUTION - Personal Note
Sometimes kidneys are no longer able to filter and clean the blood. This can cause unsafe levels of waste product build-up! This is known as kidney (or renal) failure. Unless it is treated, this can cause death.
On a personal note: my Mom passed away from renal failure, so this story is very personal to me!
What are the ingredients in K&B?
Juniper berry extract: supports digestion, intestinal gas, heartburn, bloating, and loss of appetite. Also supports the urinary tract, kidneys, and bladder.
Parsley leaf extract: supports the urinary tract and gastrointestinal tract.
Uva-ursi leaf extract: support the urinary tract and painful urination.
Dandelion root extract: supports digestion. Used to increase urine production and as a laxative to increase bowel movements. Rich in antioxidants and supports liver health.
German Chamomile flower extract: supports digestion and gas.
Royal Jelly: produced by honey bees. source of B vitamin complex and 50+ minerals and vitamins. Supports the cardiovascular, kidneys, lungs, and immune systems.
Essential oils: Geranium, Fennel, Clove, Roman chamomile, Sage, Juniper - supports digestion
What does Young Living Say about K&B?
K&B is formulated to nutritionally support normal kidney and bladder health. It contains extracts of juniper berries which enhance the body's efforts to maintain proper fluid balance; parsley, which supports kidney and bladder function and aids overall urinary health; and uva-ursi, which supports both urinary and digestive system health. K&B is enhanced with therapeutic-grade essential oils.
Directions for Use
Take 3 half droppers (3ml) three times daily in distilled water, or as needed. Shake well before using. K&B comes in a 53 ml bottle with a handy dropper.
Cost
The current retail cost is $41.78 per bottle, but there is a way to save 24% off of retail. If you want to know how to save 24% on "all" orders, send me a message!
Summary
I hope this information is of value to you and I just ordered K&B so it will be a part of my daily YL supplement routine! Happy "Peeing"
