Treatment of renal failure with folk remedies is an effective solution to therapy aimed at stopping the pathological process

Folk remedies

There are a lot of pathological conditions. All of them significantly disrupt the functioning of the body and lead to the failure of certain systems and organs. But there are those that disrupt the work of all systems without exception. This is precisely the problem associated with the kidneys, which is called renal failure. Disturbances occur in the entire genitourinary system. And also the emergence of osmotic, acid-base, water-salt homeostasis. If the kidneys do not work at a sufficient level, then gradually all human organs receive significant damage. Treatment of renal failure with folk remedies goes well with traditional therapy. It gives excellent results, which makes a person’s life much easier.

Treatment of kidney failure with burdock

To improve the condition of kidney failure, traditional medicine advises brewing burdock root. It must be crushed in a mortar to a powdery state and one tablespoon brewed in a glass of boiling water. This should be done in the evening, and the next morning the infusion will be ready for use.

The infusion is drunk in several doses in one day. The dose is chosen depending on the patient’s water regime, because you cannot drink more liquid than the volume of urine released during urination. Otherwise, swelling may occur. The water for the infusion must be prepared in advance: boil and settle, then carefully strain to avoid sediment. In the jar in which you are settling the water, place a small piece of magnet or silver in advance.(

The occurrence of insufficient kidney function

First of all, it is worth understanding that this kind of deficiency is not so much a disease as a syndrome. Gradually, the work and functioning of the kidneys, or in other words, ESRD, begins to stop. When this syndrome occurs, many functions of the human body are disrupted. The sad thing is that it all happens at the same time. The types of exchange that suffer first are:

• electrolyte;
• water;
• nitrogenous;
• and naturally, hormonal.

The process is divided into two forms of possible development: acute and chronic. But there are three stages of severity: the first is the risk of pathology, the second is damage to the mucous membranes and surface of the kidneys, the third is renal failure.

It is worth understanding that renal failure is not so much a disease as a syndrome

If a person has not noticed that there is a risk of occurrence, and this is where it all begins, then everything goes into the stage of damage. This is where the problems begin. Two areas of human life are immediately affected: blood pressure increases sharply, there is a high risk or already the development of diabetes mellitus. Kidney failure most often occurs due to hereditary reasons. Only 25% of patients have it due to sudden factors. But even at this stage, people are not very keen to go to the hospital for consultation and treatment. Therefore, they appear at the moment when the disease has entered the last stage of development: failure. This form is very difficult to treat, but 15% is always there. The main thing is not to give up and follow the exact treatment regimen provided by the doctor. It is better not to carry out treatment on your own, so as not to harm yourself even more.

Treatment of kidney failure with pomegranate juice

This method of treatment and prevention of kidney pathologies has been used in traditional medicine of different cultures for several centuries. Acute renal failure is one of the reasons for using pomegranate juice to improve the functioning of this organ. The benefit of pomegranate juice lies, first of all, in the fact that it is a storehouse of vitamins and microelements that are vital for the balanced functioning of many body systems, including the kidneys, as an element of the urinary system.

Potassium contained in pomegranate juice is an important element of water-salt metabolism, the regulation of which is vital for a patient with renal failure. Pectins in pomegranate juice are substances that stimulate the urinary system, removing toxins and waste products from the body.

The course of treatment with pomegranate juice for kidney failure takes 2 months. During this time, you need to drink 200 ml of juice in the morning and evening, and 50 g after meals. Of course, fresh pomegranate juice will be useful, not purchased pasteurized one. (Read also: beneficial properties and recipes for using pomegranate)

We identify pathology and treat with drugs

To guess the presence of renal failure, there are few symptoms and treatment with folk remedies or medications is not worth starting. You will need to undergo a series of examinations. A number of serious diseases have exactly the same symptoms as kidney dysfunction. And among them is the oncological process at the third and fourth stages of development. Therefore, when starting a diagnosis yourself, think about the consequences. Only specialists have the right to prescribe therapy based on examination results.

The main examination is a biological blood test. It examines the level of potassium and nitrogen compounds. These connections show all the important and significant changes that have occurred in the kidneys. As soon as it is discovered that the concentration of substances (urea, creatine and others) is increased, they move on to the next stage of examination. The bladder must be examined. If there is an empty bubble, you need to be alarmed. This is the first sign of dysfunction occurring in the body. You will also need to undergo an ultrasound examination, x-ray and renal biopsy.

The main examination is a biological blood test

Medication therapy involves eliminating the root cause. At the same time, symptomatic treatment should also be provided, helping to reduce the load on all systems and organs. If there is already intoxication of the body. Cleansing of the body and artificial filtration of the blood will be required. After which taking sorbents is mandatory.

The presence of infection already alters therapeutic treatment. Now the use of antibiotics is required. Compliance with all hygiene rules is strictly necessary. Pay special attention to mucous membranes. The basis of treatment for any stage of the disease and its form will be a diet that does not contain protein at all.

Corn silk for kidney failure

The use of corn silk to treat diseases of the urinary system dates back to the ancient Incas. The beneficial properties of infusions, decoctions and extracts from this part of the corn cob include the destruction of kidney stones, turning them into sand and removing it from the body using the most gentle methods.

Corn silk preparations are actively used to treat hepatitis of various etiologies and gallbladder pathologies, as they increase bile secretion. In addition, corn oil can be used as a means to prevent atherosclerosis, since its regular use reduces the level of “bad” cholesterol.

To treat kidney failure, there is an old recipe for tea made from corn silk. You need to take 3 tbsp. l. crushed raw materials and brew them with a liter of boiling water. The brewed stigmas are heated over low heat for half an hour, filtered after cooling. The drink is consumed instead of tea, 1/4 cup 4-5 times a day. Corn silk tea must be prepared fresh at all times, as it spoils quickly and can be stored in the refrigerator for no longer than 2 days.

Briefly about the stages of the disease

Kidney failure and its treatment with folk remedies largely depend on the stage of the disease. This way, the acute form or stage is neutralized much faster and the person has every chance of being brought back to normal without any special consequences. The situation is much worse with the chronic form. This form is not completely cured, but it can be stopped for a long time and not given a chance to recur. In other words, keep the chronic form under control in the suspended animation stage.

Stages of kidney failure

To understand the development of the pathological process, it is worth studying the course of the deficiency:

The acute form has a reversible process. Manifested by cessation of urine outflow partially or completely. When the first symptoms occur, you must act quickly. Otherwise, the acute form will immediately turn into chronic. This transition is almost invisible. This form of renal failure can be treated with folk remedies. But it’s better to do a combined therapy regimen.

Need to know! The appearance of a chronic form of insufficiency must not be allowed. If it was not possible to avoid it, then regularly carry out the prevention of pathology. Otherwise, the pathological process will lead to the death of the kidneys and shrinkage of their tissues.
