I have seen many things like this on Yahoo Answers, and I was wondering if it was true.Does Slimfast really cause Kidney Stones and Gallstones?If it did, how many cans would you have to drink before you had enough stuff to cause them?Please and thank you.

The stones can be caused by dramatic weight loss or yo-yo dieting often associated with those who use Slimfast and similar diet drinks to lose weight. If you don't avoid getting either stones, you need to eat healthy balanced meals so loose weight gradually. Don't use the diet drinks to substitute more than one meal a day, and check with your doctor first, before starting any diet plan. Especially if there's a history of stones in your family history. Good Luck.

Kidney stones run in my family. I've never drank slimfast but I still have stones. Drinking plenty of water as every one should do will cut the risk and also palmagranite juice or cranberry juice is great at reducing stones. If kidney stones do not run in your family, then you have nothing to worry about. Drink up!
But any one that substitues food for slimfast needs an education in nutrition. Slimfast is not a healthy diet. Eathing fruits and vegatibles is the way to go. Drinking slimfast is for lazy people that don't want to cook and eat right.
