Can kidney stone patients drink coke?

A lot of friends say: since cola is carbonated drink, can cola treat kidney stone?In fact, cola is helpful to treat kidney stone, but expert advice does not advocate coke treatment kidney stone.Let's see what the experts say!

Coke has effect in the treatment of gastric calculi, but limited to plant for the treatment of gastric calculus, because coke ingredients contains a phosphoric acid substances, it can be combined with elemental phosphorus, can also be combined with calcium, can effectively destroy plant stone aggregate material.There are cases of successful treatment of vegetative gastric calculi in China.

But doctors are not advocating this treatment for plant-based gastric calculus.Because there are four kinds of gastric calculi: vegetative gastrolith, animal gastrostasis, drug-induced gastrostasis, and mixed gastrolith, it is difficult for the general patients to determine the type of gastric calculi.

And even if you know you have a plant-based stomach calculi, you don't want to drink only coke.The reason is, the stomach stones are rolling around in the stomach, often damage the stomach wall, causing the stomach ulcer, and the carbonated drink is just the taboo of stomach ulcer, the gully drink down very easy to cause gastric perforation.Once a gastric perforation is caused, gastric resection will be required.Therefore, such treatment must go to the hospital, under the supervision of the doctor, otherwise the consequences are difficult to be expected.

Even if it is theoretically helpful for the ablation of plant-based stones, it does not promote this kind of "alternative elimination method" in clinical practice, the main reason is that it does more harm than good.Such as gastroesophageal reflux disease, gastric ulcer and gastric hemorrhage patients should not drink cola, duodenal ulcer patients, diabetic patients, gout patients and so on also need to stay away from these beverages.

The best way to plant gastroliths is to prevent them.Special attention: do not eat the unripe persimmon, black date and other tannic acid content of high content;People with gastric acid secretion too many people and the gastric power disordered person, try to avoid the food with high tannic acid content.

Sweet hint: have kidney stone can drink coke, although cola is helpful to treat certain stone, but also cannot drink often, lest appear more bad disease.
