Banana Stem Juice | Home Remedy For Kidney Stone

Simple, quick & easy home remedy to prevent kidney stone formation and to flush them out. This process involves extraction of the juice and hence is a no cook recipe
Prep Time 2 minutes
Total Time 2 minutes
Servings 1 glass

Ingredients

  • 1 cup (approx) banana stem pieces
  • 1 cup drinking water
  • pinch of salt

Instructions

  • Peel the hard exterior of the banana stem. The most fibrous and hard part needs to be removed and discarded. This will reveal a pure white inner core which is easier to cut. Chop into pieces - only as much as you need to make the required quantity of the drink. The stem tends to discolour easily
  • Transfer the chopped pieces to a mixer grinder and add 1 cup of drinking water. Grind this till you get a smooth mixture and no lumps remain.
  • Strain into a serving glass. Add salt to taste. Add a few teaspoons of the fine pulp (fibre) back into the drink if you wish. This will help cleanse the digestive system a little better.
  • Serve immediately before the discolouration gets darker.

Notes

You can soak the banana stem in buttermilk or yogurt immediately after cutting it to prevent discolouration. Some people even grind the soaked stem along with the buttermilk/yogurt. I am sure this tastes great too, so you can give it a try.
