KIDNEY DISEASE
Bright’s disease (Nephritis) is not just one condition, there are several varieties now recognised, but with some confusion as to definitions. Nephritis is a broad term for kidney inflammation not resulting from infection.
Stones (Calculi) in the kidney are quite common and how kidney stones’ form is common knowledge among the medical association. Urine consists of a complex solution of many substances, including mineral salts. Stones occur in many shapes, colours and sizes. I am not going to delve into the why and the wherefore of stones in this book, as, if stones cause serious problems then the removal by surgery is the only answer. Vitamin B6 and magnesium included in the diet or in supplementary form can help to prevent stones forming.
