Editorial Reviews

Product Description
Kidney stones can be a very painful experience. This ebook is designed to give you ideas on how to prevent and treat kidney stones.

Kidney stones start when minerals and other substances in over concentrated urine form crystals on your kidneys. These crystals can combine to form small, hard masses, or stones. Most kidney stones pass into your bladder without
causing any permanent damage, but some cause
excruciating pain, while others need surgery.

Kidney stones can be dated back to the age of the Egyptian pyramids, and they are still a common disorder today. In fact, over the years, there have been more and more incidences of kidney stones.

This valuable book goes into detail about the symptoms, the types of kidney stones, causes, pain management, treatments, and prevention methods of kidney stones!

3.0 out of 5 stars Very Short eBook with a Misleading Title, September 17, 2008

By	Pallbear (Boston, MA USA) - See all my reviews

First as might be expected this is a very short eBook - 104 Kindle Locations to be exact which is probably the equivalent of 5 to 10 printed pages. Since there are 51 tips and several tips could fit on a page I wasn't expecting a lengthy document so I really can't complain about that.

The problem is that many of the so called tips to dealing with kidney stones are not tips at all just basic information that you probably already know or even if you don't know doesn't help in anyway prevent you from getting kidney stones. For instance each different type of kidney stone is listed as a "tip" and comments that one cause of kidney stones is hereditary is also a single tip.

I'm glad I read the book but it would have helped my expectations if the title were more straight forward something along the lines of Kidney Stone Information, Causes and a Few Tips to Prevent them (although shorter :-) ).
