Planetary Herbals Stone Free® (820 mg, 180 Tablets) – Herbal Support for Kidney & Gallbladder Health
Item SKU: PF0107 | Formulated by Michael Tierra, L.Ac., O.M.D.
Your kidneys and gallbladder work around the clock as your body’s natural filtration and waste-clearing centers. Over time, mineral imbalances, dehydrated states, and rich diets can lead to sluggish fluid elimination and thick, sluggish bile. Planetary Herbals Stone Free is an expertly crafted botanical formula designed to support healthy fluid filtration in the kidneys and encourage smooth bile secretion from the liver and gallbladder.
✓ Dual-action botanical blend targeting both urinary flow and biliary health.
✓ Features prized East Asian and Western botanicals: Coin-Leaf Desmodium, Lysimachia, Turmeric, and Marshmallow Root.
✓ Free of artificial preservatives, artificial flavors, and common heavy allergens.
How Planetary Herbals Stone Free Works: A Dual-Action Flush
Unlike single-herb supplements, Stone Free relies on a strategy known as complementary phytotherapy. Developed by master herbalist and acupuncturist Michael Tierra, this 820 mg tablet formula works through two synchronized physiological pathways:
1. Kidney Flushing & Tissue Soothing
The kidneys filter approximately 120 to 150 quarts of blood daily to produce urine. When minerals like calcium, oxalate, and uric acid become overly concentrated, crystals can form. Stone Free supplies natural aquaretics (parsley root and dandelion) to promote healthy fluid flow, paired with demulcents (marshmallow root) that coat and soothe delicate urinary linings.
2. Gallbladder Bile Flow (Cholagogue Action)
The liver continuously manufactures bile, storing it in the gallbladder until you eat dietary fats. If bile stagnates, cholesterol particles can clump together into biliary sludge. Botanical bitters like turmeric and lysimachia stimulate bile production and contraction, keeping bile thin, active, and freely flowing.
Evidence-Based Ingredient Breakdown & Scientific Research
Every tablet of Planetary Herbals Stone Free brings together historically validated herbs supported by contemporary scientific evaluation:
Known in traditional East Asian medicine as Guang Jin Qian Cao and Jin Qian Cao, these two herbs are widely utilized for clearing urinary heat and assisting in the breakdown and flushing of sediment. Modern pharmacological assays demonstrate that Desmodium extracts help reduce the adhesion of calcium oxalate crystals to renal tubular cells.

✓ Turmeric Root (Curcuma longa)
Curcuminoids in turmeric provide significant antioxidant protection to hepatic cells and act as natural cholagogues. Human ultrasound trials show that curcumin induces prompt gallbladder emptying, helping prevent the stagnation of biliary cholesterol and sludge.

Dandelion root has long been valued for supporting liver metabolism and kidney elimination. Unlike synthetic diuretics that deplete vital minerals, dandelion naturally contains high potassium levels, safely stimulating urinary volume and frequency without throwing electrolyte ratios out of balance.

✓ Marshmallow Root Extract (Althaea officinalis)
Marshmallow root contains high concentrations of water-soluble polysaccharides (mucilage). When ingested, these mucilaginous compounds exert a soothing demulcent action, coating mucosal layers and protecting sensitive urothelial tissues from friction caused by gritty mineral sediment.

Parsley root provides additional aquaretic stimulation to gently flush the urinary tract. Ginger root and lemon balm relieve smooth muscle tension and settle nausea or digestive gas, while licorice root acts as an adaptogenic harmonizer that supports the stomach and intestinal mucosa.

Suggested Use, Regimen Timing & Hydration Tips
To achieve optimal outcomes with Planetary Herbals Stone Free, botanical consistency and generous fluid consumption are paramount:
Standard Manufacturer Directions:
Take 2 tablets in the morning and 3 tablets in the evening between meals (totaling 5 tablets daily), or as recommended by your healthcare practitioner.
Maintenance dose: After an initial 30-day cleansing cycle, many individuals transition to a maintenance dose of 2 tablets daily with water.
Three Keys to Support Your Cleanse:
Drink 2.5 to 3 Liters of Water Daily: Kidney-supportive herbs need ample liquid volume to flush metabolic wastes out through the bladder. Squeezing fresh lemon juice into your water adds citrate, which naturally discourages calcium crystal binding.
Take Between Meals: Consuming Stone Free between meals allows the bitter herbs to act directly on your digestive and hepatobiliary secretions without competing with heavy food boluses.
Moderate Oxalate and Purine Intake: If you are prone to kidney sediment, consider moderating your consumption of high-oxalate foods (spinach, almonds, beets) and high-purine meats during your flush period.
Important Health Advisory & Safety Contraindications
While Planetary Herbals Stone Free is a gentle botanical formula for nutritional maintenance, dietary supplements should never replace necessary clinical care. Please read these medical safety guidelines before starting:
Contraindications & Precautions:
Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Do NOT use if you are pregnant, may become pregnant, or breastfeeding.
Bile Duct Obstruction: Turmeric and Lysimachia stimulate gallbladder contractions. If you have known obstructive gallstones, an inflamed gallbladder (acute cholecystitis), or blocked bile ducts, do not use without your gastroenterologist's supervision.
Medication Interactions: Consult your physician if you take prescription blood thinners (warfarin/coumadin), potassium-sparing diuretics, or lithium, as dandelion and parsley can alter fluid balance and clearance rates.
Emergency Warning: If you experience severe radiating flank pain, visible blood in the urine, high fever, intractable vomiting, or jaundice (yellowing of the skin/eyes), seek immediate emergency medical care.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. How long does it take for Planetary Herbals Stone Free to start working?
Many people observe improvements in urinary clarity, increased fluid flow, and lighter digestion within 5 to 7 days of consistent use. For comprehensive seasonal kidney and gallbladder cleansing, herbalists generally suggest a full 30- to 60-day cycle (one full 180-tablet bottle provides a 36-day supply at 5 tablets daily).
2. Can Stone Free dissolve large kidney stones or gallstones?
No dietary supplement can claim to dissolve, treat, or eliminate diagnosed obstructive stones. Stone Free is formulated to support normal organ function, promote healthy fluid balance, encourage bile flow, and soothe mucous membranes so micro-crystals and metabolic waste pass more smoothly. Large or symptomatic stones require medical evaluation by a urologist or gastroenterologist.
3. What is the difference between Coin-Leaf Desmodium and Gravel Root in this formula?
Earlier versions of Stone Free incorporated gravel root (Eupatorium purpureum). Planetary Herbals modernized the formulation by featuring standardized extracts of Coin-Leaf Desmodium (Desmodium styracifolium) and Lysimachia (Lysimachia christinae). Both herbs boast extensive modern pharmacological research demonstrating their ability to inhibit calcium crystal adhesion and stimulate normal bile clearance.
4. Are there any side effects with Planetary Herbals Stone Free?
Stone Free is generally well tolerated. Because it contains bitter and aquaretic herbs, some people may notice increased urination, mild loose stools, or temporary stomach sensitivity. Taking the tablets with a small glass of water or just before a light snack can help reduce stomach sensitivity.
5. How should I store my Stone Free bottle?
Keep the bottle tightly capped and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, excess humidity, and heat (avoid storing it on a bathroom counter). Keep out of reach of children.
