A member asked:

Im worried about getting kidney stones bc ive not been keeping hydrated for like two months. ive started tracking my water and drinking lemon juice. should i be worried :(, ive never had them before?

Drink enough water daily so that your urine is mostly colorless. If you have not had stones before, a two month period of less than optimal hydration would not be a cause for concern. Wish you good health!

Please do not worry. It solves nothing. You are doing all the right things. Keep that up and enjoy life. You will remain stone free
