May 13, 2020Was diagnosed with a kidney stone, which I subsequently had removed. On pure caprice, I started drinking Crystal Lite Lemonade. After reading this article, I'm glad to see that my hunch was reinforced. THANK you. Will definitely give Swanson's potassium citrate a try as well.

August 21, 2019Thanks for the yes on citrus fruits. We eat a large salad six days a week with oranges. What other available fruit should we consider to increase citrus intake?
