World Kidney Day

World Kidney Day is observed on the second Thursday of March every year, and it serves as a global awareness campaign aimed at raising awareness about the importance of kidney health and the need to prevent kidney diseases. Kidneys are essential organs that play a vital role in maintaining the body’s overall health. However, kidney diseases are becoming increasingly prevalent, affecting millions of people worldwide. In this article, we will discuss the importance of kidney care and the steps that can be taken to prevent kidney diseases.

Importance of Kidney Care

The kidneys are responsible for filtering waste products from the blood and removing excess fluids from the body. They also help in regulating blood pressure and producing hormones that help to control red blood cell production and promote bone health. When the kidneys are not functioning correctly, waste products can accumulate in the body, leading to several health problems such as high blood pressure, anemia, and bone disease.

Prevention of Kidney Diseases

Preventing kidney diseases involves adopting healthy lifestyle habits that can help to reduce the risk of kidney problems. Here are some essential steps that can be taken to prevent kidney diseases:

  1. Maintain a healthy diet: Eating a balanced diet that is low in salt, sugar, and unhealthy fats can help to prevent kidney problems. Include fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grains, lean protein, and healthy fats in your diet.
  2. Exercise regularly: Regular exercise can help to improve blood pressure and reduce the risk of kidney diseases. Aim for at least 30 minutes of physical activity every day.
  3. Stay hydrated: Drinking enough water can help to flush out toxins from the body and prevent the formation of kidney stones. Aim for at least 8-10 glasses of water every day.
  4. Quit smoking: Smoking can damage blood vessels and increase the risk of kidney diseases. Quitting smoking can help to reduce the risk of kidney problems.
  5. Manage chronic conditions: Chronic conditions such as diabetes and high blood pressure can damage the kidneys over time. It is essential to manage these conditions through regular check-ups, medication, and lifestyle changes.
  6. Get regular kidney check-ups: Regular kidney check-ups can help to detect any early signs of kidney problems and prevent them from progressing. It is recommended to get a kidney function test every year if you are at high risk of kidney diseases.

Conclusion

Kidney care is crucial for maintaining overall health and preventing kidney diseases. Adopting healthy lifestyle habits such as eating a balanced diet, regular exercise, and staying hydrated can help to reduce the risk.

Kidney Disease – The hidden cause

Kidneys are an important part of our body located on either side of our lower back. Kidneys regulate blood volume, excrete acidic wastes, metabolize drugs, balance electrolytes and produce hormones. Kidneys does a lot more than making urine. Kidneys are also known to control the bones as well as fertility.

In the recent years, we have noticed a dramatic increase in kidney disease. Certain toxins can trigger chronic kidney disease. Chemicals and heavy metals in non-organic and processed foods and excess refined sugar and salt can lead to type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure causing kidney disease.

High blood pressure accelerates renal efficiency. Diseased kidneys need high blood pressure to maintain tissue perfusion. This means, in order for the rest of the body tissues to keep on receiving nutrients and oxygen via blood, the kidneys has to raise blood pressure. A natural survival mechanism that is incompatible with optimum health.

In some cases, half of the kidney function is gone even before the hypertension is diagnosed. If you notice leg swelling, tiredness and puffy eyes, it is time to have a complete physical with blood and urine tests.

To avoid end stage renal failure, an ounce of prevention is always better than a pound of cure. The holistic approach to kidney disease includes the avoidance of toxins. Avoid processed, packaged and junk foods and non-organic foods. These foods contain toxins that put pressure on the kidneys. Eat clean, organic plant-based whole foods instead. Drink pure water and herbal tea. Avoid soda, soft drinks and manufactured beverages. Avoid or greatly reduce animal-based foods such as meat and dairy.

Stress is harmful to the kidneys as it floods the body with cortisol from the adrenal glands that sit on top of the kidneys. So relax, de-stress, adopt positive thinking techniques and learn how to be in the moment and in the flow. Use mindfulness techniques, meditation and deep breathing techniques to de-stress. Supplements that help with stress include magnesium, B-complex vitamins, Ashwagandha, dark chocolate and cocoa.

Kidney Disease in Women

National Kidney foundation says that, chronic kidney disease affects 26 million American adults. Many studies show that a high fructose corn syrup contaminated with mercury may be the underlying cause of some kidney problems.

Many soda drinks may cause harm due to its refined sugar content (high fructose corn syrup). Drinking two or more servings of soda per day could link to kidney disease; particularly in women.

A recent study published in the science and medical journal, PloS ONE, provided evidence for the link between soda consumption and kidney damage. Scientists from Loyola University Health System examined the dietary habits of a sample of 9,358 adults from the United States. From the urinary samples provided by participants, an excess amount of albumin protein (albuminaria) was present in those who consumed two or more sodas. Specifically, it was women who claimed to have had two or more sodas within the 24 hours before the urine test. As a result, these women were 1.86 times more likely to have albuminaria than those who had drank only one or less than one serving of soda in the previous day. Healthy kidneys usually filter out albumin molecules in urine, so the higher concentration of this protein led scientists to conclude it was a sign of early kidney damage.

While the study did not necessarily blame high fructose corn syrup as the main cause for the kidney damage, scientists are increasingly wary of the highly refined sweetener’s negative health effects. There are an alarming 13 teaspoons of high fructose corn syrup in one twelve ounce can of soda. Based on previous studies, soda consumption is potentially causing diabetes and excess fat.

High fructose corn syrup can withstand long storage times and is cheaper than sugar, leading it to become a leading popular sweetener used in everything from breakfast cereals and processed meat, to soup and condiments. With the heavy consumption of soda in the United States, online doctor consultation services are quickly growing as more and more people become accustomed to receiving health care for minor medical problems possibly related to diet online and through the telephone.

The study that made a strong case about the dangers of contaminated high fructose corn syrup was featured in the journal of Environmental Health. The study demonstrated that mercury in high fructose corn syrup proves to be dangerous to the kidneys. Nine out of 20 commercial soda products tested positive for mercury, which is a known toxin. A follow up study showed that there was mercury in almost half of tested samples of commercially used high-fructose corn syrup.

There are several of those in the food industry who do not believe that the high fructose corn syrup in their products contain mercury. Such manufacturers claim that they use mercury-free hydrochloric acid and caustic soda. However, contamination could have occurred if mercury cells were used to produce caustic soda. At present time, there is a push for the industry to regulate how high fructose corn syrup is manufactured, to prevent further health risks from mercury contamination.

So, what can one do to avoid or limit consumption of contaminated products such as sodas? There are many alternative beverages to drink, which include home-brewed hot or iced tea, or iced tea in stores that do not contain high fructose corn syrup; seltzer or still water; flavored water (be cautious of artificial sweeteners used); juices, lemonade; hot or iced coffee; and more. For sweeteners, try honey, especially local varieties. With small dietary changes such as this, people can save their kidneys! It is forever important for people to read labels and ingredient of pre-packaged foods to know what they are putting in their bodies.

In addition, seek out the professional services of those who provide quality online doctor consultations and prescriptions should you have the need to see a doctor for any diet-related or other reason that would otherwise have you trekking out to the doctor’s office unnecessarily.

Any chronic medical condition put you at a higher risk for more severe illness. People with kidney disease are susceptible to higher risk with COVID-19. A little extra care and hygiene can save lives.

A good immune system is the primary defense system to protect you from any infections.

People on dialysis may have a compromised immune system; they still need to continue their scheduled dialysis treatment and should take necessary precautions as recommended by their healthcare team.

Kidney transplant patients need to be extra vigilant. These patients take immunosuppressive medicines, these medicines work by keeping the immune system less active making them vulnerable and hard to fight infections. These prescribed medicines are important however, it is equally important to maintain good hygiene and wash your hands often.

Some of the additional precautions that can help prevent the COVID-19 (especially people in old age):

  • reduce the number of trips to the super market, buy your groceries for weeks at a time
  • keep a safe distance from others
  • wear a mask when in public or in contact with others
  • wash your hands as often as you can
  • avoid touching unnecessary objects
  • avoid crowded places
  • stay home as much as possible

Is there a cure for Kidney Disease?

Anyone who come to find out that they have kidney disease, the first question comes to mind is “is there a cure for this disease?”

The answer may vary for the kind of kidney disease. In some cases, it could be a temporary phase however, in most cases it can be progressing slowly due to either diabetes or hypertension or both.

Diabetes and hypertension are the two main causes of this disease. Managing these two condition can tremendously slow down the progression of kidney disease.

The approach to address kidney disease is different in different medicine systems. Modern medicine doctor may prescribe ACE Inhibitor or ARB (Angiotensin II Receptor Blocker) to reduce the protein in your urine and to keep the blood pressure under control.

Kidney disease is a progressive disease and in modern medicine, there are a few options to manage this disease. As the disease progresses, your doctor will mainly monitor your blood reports for Creatinine and Blood Urea. As the patient approach Stage 5 of this disease, doctor will start to prepare the patient for dialysis (mentally and physically).

After starting the dialysis, the patient may also be on a transplant list for a kidney transplant.

Modern medicine is effective in treating symptoms however, may not be able to address the cause of these issues. In many cases, the pharmaceutical medication can contribute to kidney damage.

Other methods in conjunction with the modern medicine can address kidney damage. There are natural herbs that can rejuvenate the kidneys and naturally bring the kidney function back to normal. A right dose of herbs with some diet changes can help tremendously.

Kidney Disease and Dialysis

Kidney failure is not an easy condition to live with. There are many reasons that may cause kidney disease however, high blood pressure, diabetes and genetics tops the list.

The biggest challenge with disease is that there are rarely any noticeable signs or symptoms in the beginning. People with diabetes and high-blood pressure should have their blood test done regularly and take their prescription for these two condition with due diligence. A regular check-up may offer some clues to identify and find a remedy for this problem.

If you notice that your eyesight is declining due to diabetes then it is quite possible that it is also affecting your kidneys. Decline in kidney function is usually directly proportional to the eyesight.

Once the patient is diagnosed with end-stage kidney disease i.e. stage 5, at this stage the patient lose about 85 to 90% of the kidney function. At this stage, dialysis is the most common method to remove body waste and balance body fluids. Dialysis is a mechanism that does a function of kidney.

About 90% of dialysis patients receive hemodialysis. In hemodialysis, machine clean and return blood to the patient. Like healthy kidneys, kidney dialysis keeps your body in balance. The purpose of dialysis is to do the following:

  • Remove waste, extra water to prevent them from building in the body (if not done this may cause breathlessness, itching, heart palpitation etc.)
  • Keep the electrolytes in balance
  • Help in controlling blood pressure

The Hemodialysis usually last about four hours and done three times a week. Many factors can play in where this time may vary.

 Many patients live a normal life with dialysis however; kidney dialysis is not a cure for kidney disease. This is a lifelong process unless a kidney transplant or the kidneys revive to work on their own.

The survival rate for the kidney patients is quite high in the first year of treatment however; it declines rapidly over the years.

It is vital to understand the importance of predicting and preventing kidney disease. Keep diabetes and hypertension under control. These must be handled with the seriousness they deserve. Diet and exercise also play a big part. Consult your family physician if you notice any abnormality in urine.

Kidney Disease and what can be done about this?

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is the most common form of kidney ailment. The two main reasons are usually long-term diabetes or uncontrolled high blood pressure (hypertension). These conditions cause a slow damage to the nephrons and it is quite difficult to detect it in the early stages.

As the disease progresses, nephron lose their effectiveness to get rid of toxins and water from the body. This results in some more obvious symptoms, of which one is increase in creatinine and urea.

 The other symptoms may also include swelling of face, hands and feet. Fatigue is also very common in this condition. If not treated this may cause mental instability and seizures.

It is important to understand that the kidney disease is a progressive disease, it is imperative to address this disease as soon as you become aware of it. It does not go away of its own. Kidney disease causes several other challenges. For instance, it will not be able to regulate blood pressure or essential metabolites and nutrients in your body.

An unsuccessful treatment will lead the kidney disease to kidney failure. Failure of both kidneys is known as end stage renal disease. Dialysis and kidney transplant are the two most common options at this stage.

As soon as your creatinine hit the 5.0 mark, your doctor will start to prepare you for dialysis. There are two kinds of dialysis – hemodialysis and peritoneal dialysis. The common of these two is hemodialysis. This is usually done three times a week and takes anywhere from 3 to 4 hours per session. The success rate of dialysis is not that great, It is expensive, time consuming and some sources suggest that most people who start dialysis die within five years.

It is very important to have your regular physical done to detect this disease in an early stage. Early detection and following some simple guidelines about lifestyle and diet can prevent this disease to become a kidney failure.

The use of natural remedies can be very effective. Herbal combinations combined with some diet guidelines have shown to both treat the cause of kidney damage and even reverse this disease.

Kundan Kidney Care Centre is been helping kidney patients for the last three decades and have helped thousands of patients to live a normal healthy life. At Kundan Kidney Care Centre, you may have your case assessed at no cost and the medicine can shipped to any destination in the world via courier.

Kidney Diseases, Sexuality and Pregnancy

Individuals with chronic kidney diseases are often concerned with sexuality and having a child. It is not uncommon for a woman with CKD to wonder if she can get pregnant or for a man undergoing dialysis if he can become a father despite his treatment. Additionally, there are birth control questions that need to be discussed, among others.

Let us start with the query if a woman on dialysis can have a child. It is rare for a woman on dialysis to get pregnant. If indeed she gets pregnant she usually has a miscarriage. Most women dialysis patients do not have regular menstrual cycles. However, using erythropoietin (EPO) leads to improvement in some women’s overall health which also increases the chance of pregnancy. A baby is usually conceived after treatments are increased, changes are made in the diet and medications and more frequent visits to the doctor.

A woman’s body changes during pregnancy and adds stress to it. This is true even for healthy women who risk their lives because of pregnancy. A baby’s life is always at risk too at any stage in the pregnancy. However, there is greater risk for women dialysis patients and the unborn child.

Women, especially those who are married, may feel incomplete or sexually incapable, if they are unable to conceive a child. It may even give them a feeling of loss, especially since society expects married couples to have children. In order to cope, women who feel incomplete or depressed should openly communicate her feelings and needs with her partner and / or health care professionals. Perhaps she can also consider other options such as becoming a foster parent.

But it is not only women who get anxious about this issue. Men on dialysis also have the same concern. Can he father a child? The answer is yes, it is possible for a man on dialysis to become a father. Even those who received kidney transplants can become fathers. However, couples who have tried in the last year to conceive a child without success should consult their family doctors. The man may need to have a routine fertility check up.

If a man who has undergone a kidney transplant father a child, then can a woman who underwent the same procedure become pregnant? Fortunately, the answer is a big YES. A woman who went through a kidney transplant has a more regular menstrual cycle and is generally in better health. This makes it easier for her to conceive a baby. However, patients should take note that pregnancy is not recommended until a year after the kidney transplant.

Another concern for women with CKD is birth control. Recommended birth control methods are diaphragm, sponge and condom, especially if they are used with spermicidal creams, foams or jellies. Dialysis patients are recommended to use birth control. The doctor can recommend which birth control type to use to guard against pregnancy. Those with high blood pressure are recommended not to use the pill since it can increase blood pressure. Meanwhile transplant patients are not recommended to use Intrauterine Devices (IUD) since they are more likely to get an infection from IUD use. Anti-rejection drugs taken during dialysis lower the body’s ability to fight infection.

What is GFR (Glomerular Filtration Rate)?

Once your doctor observe any markers for kidney disease, he/she will recommend a few tests. One of them will be to determine the GFR. This refers to the amount of fluid filtered per minute by the glomeruli (capillaries or tiny blood vessels in the kidneys).

GFR is an accurate index to measure the kidney function. This can also determine the stage of kidney disease. The normal range varies between 100 – 120 ml/min.

It is also a good practice to use appropriate terms to understand why these tests are performed. It is also important to understand the four main functions of kidneys:

  1. Excretory function – this helps in excretion of waste products and drugs
  2. Regulatory function – this controls body fluid volume and composition
  3. Endocrine function – this produces erythropoietin, renin and prostaglandis
  4. Metabolic function – this metabolizes Vitamin D and small molecular weight proteins

A low GFR is an evidence of serious progressive renal disease. GFR reduces in both acute and chronic renal failure. A reduction of more than 50% in GFR manifests as raised serum urea and creatinine.

To determine GFR, other factors like age, race and gender are taken into consideration. Doctor may ask to measure GFR more than once before an assessment of kidney function is determined.

Even though the GFR test is very useful to determine kidney function, the results may vary in some situations. E.g. age 70 or older and under 18, pregnant, obese, muscular, vegetarian, African descent. These factors affect creatinine generation. In these cases, an additional test with 24 hours urine collection may be more accurate.

Your doctor may suggest some additional tests such as an ultrasound or CT scan to spot any abnormalities in the kidneys such as kidney stones. A kidney biopsy may be suggested to have to examine any abnormalities and disease.
