“Ayurveda helps Kidney patient by treating damaged kidney tissues and reducing the frequency of dialysis,” he exclaimed. As a result, Ayurvedic medications have the potential to treat kidney failure at all stages of the disease (Stage 1 to Stage 5). “Patients with renal disease on dialysis are at a higher risk of developing cardiovascular disease,” he added.

The most common side effects of dialysis are low blood pressure (hypotension), blood clots, hernia, bloating, and weight gain.

Instead, changing your lifestyle, drinking adequate amount of water and by using certain Ayurvedic herbs can help you maintain your kidney health. If patients follow the basic principles of Ayurvedic medicine for their kidney damage, herbal medicines can help them stop dialysis. Following healthy, dietary and lifestyle recommendations are the best thing you can do. Reduce your consumption of highly processed foods that are high in sugar and sodium. Avoid potassium & phosphorus rich food items. Drink adequate amount of water depending on your kidney failure stage.
