Here are some ...: No dietary effort will have any impact to the existing 2-mm stone. But for recurrent stone formers without specific comprehensive stone work-up, a general advice to keep up a daily urine output more than 2500 cc + decrease oral consumption of salt, red meat, & dairy products by >50% is decent and reasonable.

Small kidney stone: This is a small stone. To help it pass on its own, drink 4 liters of fluid per day. As much as possible, use lemonade or lemon extract added to water. The citrate in the lemon will help dissolve the stone. Minimize salt. Minimize animal protein. Push the fluids to 4 liters minimum per day.
