Kidney Beans
If you have ever heard the old wives tale foods resemble the organ they support - its true at least in this case.

Celery
Organic celery and celery seed are known diuretics, which means they help to create more urine and easier urine flow. You can use celery seed as a spice, or just munch on the stalks to keep your kidneys healthy. Although not among the most effective home remedies for kidney stones, it is still a tip to consider.
