As a person who has cystinuria, diabetes and is overweight I recently tried a drink mix to alkalinise more. I mix a teaspoon of raw honey with 3 good shakes of powdered cinnemon, add a dessertspoon of aplle cider vinegar (with the mother) hot water enough to melt the honey...cold water and the juice and flesh of a lemon. For me it has been most helpful in easing the discomfort of smaller pieces of stone and I hope it may be helpful to others. The use of cinnemon daily has kept me from needing to use antibiotics for years. I have had dozens of surgical procedures to remove and break down stone and there is much in this drink that aids recovery.
