Program for Chronic Kidney Disease

Our Naturopathy Role for CKD has shown excellent results in many individuals, and have avoided Dialysis.

Conventionally, treatment of kidney diseases especially chronic kidney disease is quite complex. Modern medical science hardly has an approach for nephron regeneration, and often has no cure for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). The advanced stage patients go for dialysis or kidney transplant therefore. Conventional complimentary or traditional systems of medicines are considered risky in treating kidney diseases due to its high potassium and bhasma (heavy metals and minerals) presence that has adverse effect on kidney. However, Our traditional medicine treatment protocol is based on Goraya theory of modern medical science (Which focuses on increasing the amount of alkali-inducing fruits and vegetables in the diet that helps to reduce kidney injury. In a report, 30 days of a diet that included fruits and vegetables, in amounts calculated to reduce dietary acid by half, resulted in decreased urinary albumin, N-acetyl β-D-glucosaminidase, and transforming growth factor β in patients with moderately reduced estimated GFR as a result of hypertensive nephropathy).

However, fruits, vegetables and cooked sprouts can increase the chance of increased serum potassium which is dangerous for CKD patients (Hyperkalemia – increased risk of cardiac muscle stiffness, which may lead to cardiac arrest). Another risk of high consumption of fruits and vegetables can increase fluid accumulation in tissues which leads to pleural edema and pleural effusion (fluid accumulation in lungs). 

The UDHWEEPANI medicines are prepared only from leaf and stems of herbs and specially prepared in traditional process founded and standardized in over 800 years of collective experience of physicians over generations. No potassium and fluid restrictions during these medication intervention, and medicines are free from complete side effects. Even a kid of 1 year old can consume these medicines due to the safety of preparation. The medicinal action is implied only for patients, while for others it acts only as food. Any mistake or compromise in the quality of medicines of kidney patients will be life threatening. Hence, lot of importance is given for selection, collection and preparation of medicines. Absolutely no compromise on the quality of medicines. Kidney patients (CKD) medicines are diuretic in nature. The patient is recommended for taking more fruits and vegetables there by avoiding the accumulation of excess potassium and fluid accumulation in the body. This whole process of treating kidney patients helps improve the kidney functions by reducing the creatinine, urea, potassium, controlling blood pressure. Improvement in hemoglobin will be observed due to increased secretion of erythropoetin hormones from kidney.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD), also called chronic kidney failure, describes the gradual loss of kidney function. Your kidneys filter wastes and excess fluids from your blood, which are then excreted in your urine. When chronic kidney disease reaches an advanced stage, dangerous levels of fluid, electrolytes and wastes can build up in your body. In the early stages of chronic kidney disease, you may have few signs or symptoms. Chronic kidney disease may not become apparent until your kidney function is significantly impaired.

Signs and symptoms of chronic kidney disease develop over time if kidney damage progresses slowly. Signs and symptoms of kidney disease may include: nausea, vomiting, loss of appetite, fatigue and weakness, sleep problems, changes in how much you urinate, decreased mental sharpness, muscle twitches and cramps, persistent itching, chest pain, shortness of breath, if fluid builds up in the lungs, high blood pressure (hypertension) that's difficult to control, etc. The cause of CKD occurs when a disease or condition impairs kidney function, causing kidney damage to worsen over several months or years.

Diseases and conditions that cause chronic kidney disease include:

• Type 1 or type 2 diabetes
• High blood pressure
• Glomerulonephritis, an inflammation of the kidney's filtering units (glomeruli)
• Interstitial nephritis an inflammation of the kidney's tubules and surrounding structures
• Polycystic kidney disease
• Prolonged obstruction of the urinary tract, from conditions such as enlarged prostate, kidney stones and some cancers
• Vesicoureteral reflux, a condition that causes urine to back up into your kidneys
• Recurrent kidney infection, also called pyelonephritis

Chronic kidney disease can affect almost every part of your body. Potential complications may include:

• Fluid retention, which could lead to swelling in your arms and legs, high blood pressure, or fluid in your lungs (pulmonary edema)
• A sudden rise in potassium levels in your blood (hyperkalemia), which could impair your heart's ability to function and may be life-threatening
• Heart and blood vessel (cardiovascular) disease
• Weak bones and an increased risk of bone fractures
• Anemia
• Decreased sex drive, erectile dysfunction or reduced fertility
• Damage to your central nervous system, which can cause difficulty concentrating, personality changes or seizures
• Decreased immune response, which makes you more vulnerable to infection
• Pericarditis, an inflammation of the saclike membrane that envelops your heart (pericardium)
• Pregnancy complications that carry risks for the mother and the developing fetus
• Irreversible damage to your kidneys (end-stage kidney disease), eventually requiring either dialysis or a kidney transplant for survival
