"Drink lemon water" is the #1 piece of advice kidney stone patients hear from their doctors. But is it actually helping you? In this episode, Jill Harris breaks down why this generic advice can be useless (or even make things worse) when it's not based on your actual results.

Jill shares a real patient story: someone who made stones for 20 years, faithfully drank lemon water the whole time, and only discovered through a 24-hour urine collection that lemons were never what she needed. In her case, they were slightly raising her risk of calcium phosphate stones.
