Do you KNOW what kidney filtration means?
Wondering what these pictures represent?
Well, filtration is very real. I mean, the fact that without it we suffer.
The body struggles to eliminate lymphatic waste. Metabolic waste even.
What? Is clear urine not the deal?
Nope! (Watch the nasty video of my filtration at the end of this blog if you can stomach it.)
Keep reading.
First of all, our kidneys reflect our state of HEALTH! They are vital in your body’s elimination process. Imagine that without proper elimination of metabolic wastes, both cellular and digestive, toxic by-products will cause auto-intoxication of cells. This causes cellular weakness and death. I know, a sad story, but the truth in this is GOLDEN. Saved my life. Together with a few other things.
I was so full of shit it was unreal. Medicated with pure poison, stuffing myself with my own share of crap, and if you know a part of my story you know where it took me. To what I perceived as HELL. There`s no nicer way of putting it.
When the crap cannot leave the body, you suffer.
When acids win we lose.
When pain and swelling takes over,
it feels like GAME over.
Little did I know my kidneys were not only suffering BIG time, they were one of the keys to unlocking my health. The health that I had lost forever according to the mainstream. The health that I am not even sure I ever had. Not really.
Back to the kidneys and why you need to MIND them if you want to feel freaking amazing.
You see, and I see this every single week when working with chronic, we need to take this super seriously. I mean, I can literally from looking at a person see if the kidneys are holding them back. The key to elimination. Therefore, to regeneration.
Wondering about the typical weak kidney and bladder signs?
Kidney weakness symptoms:
- Bags under your eyes
- Vision problems
- Lower back weakness and pain
- Kidney stones (contributing factor to parathyroid weakness)
- Urinary tract infections-UTI (burning upon urination)
- Loss of bladder control (incontinence)
- Difficulty urinating (can be urinary tract infections as well)
- Increased acidosis
- Dehydration
- Edema (contributing factor)
- Toxemia
- Headaches
- Can affect your breathing
- Lymphatic stagnation
- Inflammation
- Pain
- Immune system weakness
The thing is;
If we do not eliminate our wastes, we build congestion interstitially (around cells) and intracellularly (inside cells), causing further cellular decay and death. Good elimination means moving our bowels three times a day, urinating adequately, sweating, and breathing properly. All of us fail in this category to some extent or another. By correcting digestion, absorption, utilization, and elimination we can regain our energy, build vitality and vibrancy, and live a disease-free life.
Detoxification is about letting everything that is not serving us be processed and leave. A true healing regime or program will include emotional and mental work as well as a physical cleansing regime. It will be impossible not to include all aspects of the being.
The mind-body-soul connection again. Never the less, changing what we eat most often is the simplest and most potent way to start.
The body will detoxify all our bodies at the same time; The physical, the mental and the emotional body. That means that once we start to eat what the body is designed to eat, it will also let us know which emotional waste we have been holding on to.
By giving it a break from having to digest and eliminate more waste, it now has the ability to use the energy to clear everything from old emotions, to mucus in our intestines.
We need to look to nature, get back to the basics, and trust in our own bodies and their ability to heal. We will heal by eating fresh living organic foods, like we were meant to. That way, we are constantly letting our body take care of business. In this lifetime, in this world, the challenges are many for most of us. It seems the non-foods presented to us, alongside the stress, the polluted air, the negative programming and the fear of change, is holding us captive in our polluted houses.
The first goal and important milestone of the detoxification program is for the individual to achieve filtration of their lymphatic system. This is accomplished by restoring kidney and adrenal gland function.
Now, the question arises: “How long will it take to get my kidneys to filter?” which is up there with questions along the lines of, “How long does it take, before my health conditions are gone?” Both are questions that are impossible to give definitive answers to as it depends on many variables.
The most important variables include:
- What is the state of your kidneys, adrenals and pituitary gland, prior to changing your lifestyle?
- How strict and dedicated will you be toward doing what must be done as well as how much effort will you put into following the healthy plan?
- How much stress, if any, is generated from your current lifestyle, and are you required to always be on the move?
- Are you willing to undergo water fasts, lemon juice fasts, grape mono-diets, watermelon mono-diets, etc., if implored to?
- How long will it take for you to withdraw from old habits (especially abandoning dairy products, and limiting high protein foods) and incorporate new, health inducing ones?
- If any, what is the degree of sulfur accumulation within your body?
As you can see, it is impossible to estimate how long it will take. Some people begin filtering within as little as 7 days, while it can easily take up to a year or more.
The point is this:
Never, ever give up, and stay on point. You WILL filter.
What does Kidney Filtration look like?
At the base of most severe symptoms is a non-filtering set of kidneys. This is one of the most important keys to great health. Look for filtration by peeing in a clear glass jar. Hold it to the light and look for sediment. You are looking for anything that floats around in your urine. It might look like small particles, like small snowflakes, or a stringier mucus looking sediment. If the urine is cloudy, you can let it sit overnight, and watch if any sediment will settle at the bottom.
You want the sediment in your urine. It is telling you that your kidneys are filtering out the lymphatic waste.
If it is, the body will able to detoxify at a more rapid pace. This has nothing to do with the color of the urine. In general, the color simply indicates how much you have been drinking. If your urine is clear, you know that this has to be your main focus moving forward, to get your kidneys to filter.
Provided above is a graphic of what urine sediment looks like once the kidneys begin filtering. Note that once filtration has been achieved, urine will often turn cloudy and will contain long threads or strings of mucus, as well as having a shaken snow-globe-like appearance.
How to see the full amount of sediment present:
Pee into a jar and leave it in the refrigerator for a couple of hours (4 hours at least) allowing the sediment to settle to the bottom. You can also leave it overnight. If you’re not filtering, you will not see anything settling at the bottom
By taking full responsibility you are now about to do something that will change your health from one day to the other. Embarking on a full week of kidney love will change the whole course of your healing journey. This is about flow, about eliminating obstructions.
When we are acidic, our kidneys are not filtering as they should. The body is made as a self-cleanser. It is made to perfectly rid itself of acidic waste. We run into trouble as we not only bombard our bodies and minds with toxicity and stress, but do not address our kidney and adrenal weakness. A ticking bomb combination for illness and degeneration.
Bottom line is this: Before the body has gotten rid of that which is making it weak and sick, it has no capacity or means to regenerate. Once it is able to clean, it will do so, and once the majority of the cleaning is done, regeneration will take place and symptoms will disappear.
When we are ready for change, the change that will rewrite our whole life-story, the power we need to do so will rise from within. When we take the first step, the road will reveal itself.
As long as YOU keep doing what you need to do, your body will respond. In good time.
AND when you have the proper protocol and guidance, it will happen faster sooner than later.
So, no, your urine is NOT supposed to be clear.

I have seen people who have been working on the filtration issue for a long time, filter from that one week. It is in the Membership group and on my website. If you are not a Member and don’t even want to become one, Don`t worry. I can still teach you how to get your kidneys to drain your pain.
Oh, the nasty filtration I promised you. Not for the faint:
