Diet or Food for Kidney Cyst Patients

  Diet or Food for Kidney Cyst Patients
  Firstly, patients with Kidney Cyst should not have fermented food such as fermented bean curd, smelly eggs, which will make the cysts grow faster.
  Secondly, patients should not have organs of animals, especially the liver of the kidney. There must be toxins in animal’s organs. According to Chinese medicine, liver is an organ which can clear the toxin in the body. So, there must be toxins in liver. If patients with Kidney Cyst (Renal Cyst) have more liver, it will increase the burden of the kidney.
  Thirdly, patients with Kidney Cyst should not have sea food such as fish and shrimps. What’s more, bean curd which contains much low-quality protein will also lead to burden to the kidney.
  Fourthly, patients should stop drinking and taking medicine which contains drugs which does harm to kidney.
  Fifthly, patients with Kidney Cyst should also stop chocolate, which can accelerate the growth of the kidney.
  Sixthly, low salt, for too much intake of salt can lead to high blood pressure. After the intake of too much water and sodium, there will be retention of water and sodium, which leads to the swelling of VSMC, the blood vessels become narrower, the resistance force of blood vessels will increase.
  Lastly, pepper should be stopped. Pepper is spicy food, which will stimulate the body and lead to deterioration of kidney disease. Especially for those who have renal cyst or PKD (Polycystic Kidney Disease), pepper or cayenne will stimulate the cysts, making them grow bigger.

  The above mentioned are about the diet or food for patients with renal cyst or kidney cyst. For more information, please consult us online or email us.

6 Main Symptoms of IgA Nephropathy (Berger’s Disease) in Clinic

  6 Main Symptoms of IgA Nephropathy (Berger’s Disease) in Clinic
  IgA glomerulonephritis is a kind of glomerulus which is characterized by the phenomenon that recurrent gross hematuria or microscopic hematuria and mesangial cell increase, and stroma expland, meanwhile, with IgA depositing. The manifestations of IgA Nephropathy in clinic are various, the most typical ones of which are: hematuria(blood urine), proteinuria(protein in urine), nephrotic syndrome, acute renal failure, chronic renal failure and high blood pressure(hypertension).
  1. Gross hematuria Gross hematuria (blood urine) can be found in 30%-50% of patients (urine appears to be brown or water where flesh is washed, and blood clot is rarely seen), which usually occurs after pharyngitis and amygdalitis, or appears under influences like overstrain, a cold, vaccination, pneumonia, gastroenteritis, etc. It usually occurs together with inducements, or occurs several hours to 24 hours after the inducements and then remits spontaneously after lasting several hours to one week. It is the most common symptom for Berger’s Disease.
  2. Proteinuria (protein in urine)
  In most of time, patients with IgA Nephropathy have proteinuria. There is foamy in the surface of the urine, which does not disappear for a long time. The bubble or foam is protein which leaks out into urine, which is also common following hematuria.
  3. Nephrotic Syndrome. Nephrotic Syndrome can be found in 5% to 20% of patients, most of whom are children and youngsters. Four characteristic manifestations are as follows: proteinuria, the amount of protein in which in 24 hours is more than 3.5g, low protein in plasma (hypoproteinemia), hyperlipemia and swelling. It indicates that IgA nephritis has developed into a later stage.
  4. Acute Renal Failure
  It can be divided into two types: one is pathological change with vasculitis caused by large quantity of crescent in glomeruli; the other occurs when large quantity of erythrocyte casts blocks the tubules during gross hematuria.
  5. Chronic Renal Failure.
  Usually, it is the late manifestation of this long-term disease. In this class, patients with IgA Nephropathy can also have other symptoms such as poor appetite, nausea, anemia, vomiting and so on.
  6. Hypertension or high blood pressure. It is a symptom which appears when kidney function gets worse.

  Since we have understood the main symptoms of IgA Nephropathy, we can have a diagnosis in clinic. Next, effective treatment is necessary.

Why Dialysis Can not Treat Diabetic Kidney Disease from Root

  Why Dialysis Can not Treat Diabetic Kidney Disease from Root
  When diabetes develops into diabetic kidney disease, most people will choose dialysis for creatinine is high. But we will find that it can not treat diabetes from root, which makes people feel confused. Please don’t worry.
  We know kidneys have three main functions: 1) Absorb the useful substance from the human body, such as the renal tubules can absorb the useful substance from the original urine. 2) Discharge the waste product from the human body. Such as the waste product can be leakage from the glomeruli. 3) Secrete the waste product from the kidneys. Such as the kidneys can secrete the EPO to produce the red blood cell, and kidneys can secrete the special substance to maintain the balance of blood pressure.
  At present, dialysis only can achieve the second function, the first and the third function can’t be achieved by the dialysis. Therefore, after the dialysis, more patients’ creatinine still higher than the normal level, and the hemoglobin is lower than the normal level.
  Therefore, only receive the dialysis can help her discharge the waste products, it can't repair the damaged kidneys, can't treat the kidney disease.

  So we suggest Chinese Medicine therapy, and it is aimed to repair her damaged kidney cells thus helping stop the dialysis.

How does Diabetes Affect Kidney?

  How does Diabetes Affect Kidney?
  How does diabetes affect kidney? Diabetes is a kind of disease which related to the whole body’s vessels. Kidney Disease is a complication of Diabetes. The reason why people have Diabetes is because the pancereatic islet can’t secrete the useful insulin.
  There are many pancereatic islets in the pancreas, which can secrete insulin. The main function of insulin is to regulate the glycometabolism, fat metabolism and protein. Pancereatic islet produces much insulin, but the insulin can not working very well. Such as there are 10 insulin, only 2 insulin working. Therefore, pancereatic islet need to secret more and more insulins to maintain the dynaimic balance of human body.
  If things go on like this, pancereatic islet will have a lot of work need to do, it will fell very tired. So pancereatic islet appear ’strike’. Lack of enough insulin, so the metabolism of sugars has become disturbed, patients have high blood sugar, and protein become distured, which related to kidneys( protein needs to metabolize by the kidneys), so your father have more protein in the kidneys, and clinical test reports show high creatinine in blood and foam in urine. It indicates that the kidney is damaged for kidney has function of discharging creatinine out of the body and preventing the protein out of the body. The foam in urine is caused by protein.

  To prevent diabetes affecting kidney, we should treat diabetes in time and especially control the level of blood sugar or blood glucose. We can also take treatment measures such as injecting insulin, stem cell therapy and so on.

Where Is There Protein in Urine for Diabetes?

  Where Is There Protein in Urine for Diabetes?
  Where is there protein in urine for diabetes? It indicates that there is damage in the kidney. Damage in kidney which is caused by long time diabetes is called diabetic kidney disease or diabetic nephropathy. In the early stage of diabetic nephropathy in particular, there will be protein leaking out of the body into urine. The main protein is albumin. After kidney is damaged, the permeability of capillary blood vessels in the kidney is also damaged, thus causing the leaking out of albumin.
  Why is there mainly albumin? High blood sugar condition can promote the reabsorption of sodium, which can increase the content of liquid out of the cells. ANF can make the prerenal tubules blood vessels expand and the shrink of the post-blood vessels, thus causing the ultrafiltration and the ultraperfusion. The final metabolism of sugar can also lead to increased renal glomerular basilar membrane and the ECM, which can damage the renal structure and renal function.
  Besides, the leaking out of urine is also connected with the controlling of the blood sugar. If the blood sugar is controlled well, diabetic kidney disease will not take place. If we take in more protein, it will also give more burden to the filtration of the kidney, thus accelerating the sclerosis of the renal glomerular capillary blood vessels.

  So if we want to control or prevent the leaking out of the protein in urine, we should firstly treat diabetes and control the level of blood sugar or glucose. Besides diet, exercise, and so on, treatment is also critical, which can even help patients get off insulin injection. Stem cell therapy is considered to be the priority of the treatment which can help adjust the insulin secretion by repairing beta cell.

Chinese Herb Medicine Treats Glomerulonephritis

  Chinese Herb Medicine Treats Glomerulonephritis
  After thousands of years’ development, Chinese medicine and theory has become skilled in treating many kinds of diseases without any side effects as well as treating them from root. The same goes for the treatment of renal glomerulonephritis, the therapy and mechanism of which is as follows:
  1) Some herbs in this prescription can clear up immune complex and inflammatory factors so that these factors won't further damage the kidneys. As we know, glomerulonephritis is characterized by deposition of immune complex in glomeruali. And such deposition causes damage to the kidneys and also stimulates the body to release inflammatory factors. Too much inflammatory factors further damage the kidneys. Therefore, clearing up such factors is quite important for treating glomerulonephritis.
  2) Other herbs help to repair the damaged renal functional cells by providing necessary micronutrients for self-repair of renal functional cells and stimulating DNA Replication of renal functional cells. Most of the patients have continuous protein in urine, which indicates that charge barrier and size barrier of epithelial cells and endothelial cells are damaged. And both types of cells are main renal functional cells. As the renal functional cells are repaired, charge barrier and size barrier recover. Protein won't leak out again. Hence, after treated by Chinese herb medicines, protein in urine can be cured.
  3) These herbs also have effect on improving blood circulation. They realize it by dilating blood vessels, anti-inflammation, anticoagulation and degrading extra cellular matrixes (formed by sclerosed renal functional cells). In this case, ischemia and anoxia of the kidneys can be improved, contributing to stopping the progression of kidney disease and protecting kidney function. This is because ischemia and anoxia are the major factors that aggravate progression of glomerulonephritis. With good circulation, blood pressure becomes stable and edema is relieved. About controlling blood pressure, Chinese herb medicine is different from western anti-hypertensive medicines. Chinese herb medicine has long-term effect, so after treatment, most of patients don’t have to take anti-hypertensive medicines any more.

  Every coin has two sides and the same goes for traditional Chinese medicine. It will take a long time to collect, smash and boiled, which may delay the treating time. Considering these, Chinese Medicine is created in Kidney Disease Hospital, which is really a creation. It is convenient, applied through osmosis omitting smashing and boiling, thus saving time to treat glomerulonephritis indeed.

How to Treat Creatinine 330, CKD Stage 3

  How to Treat Creatinine 330, CKD Stage 3
  How to treat creatinine 330, CKD stage 3? GFR can show the blood flow in the kidney, which is more accurate than serum creatinine for creatinine is influenced by many factors such as diet and exercise. The normal range of GFR is 80 to 120 ml/min. In the third stage, GFR falls to 30~59 ml/min. In addition, in many countries, kidney disease patients begin to take dialysis when the serum creatinine is as high as 445 umol/L. For diabetic kidney disease, patients should start it as soon as creatinine is 300. All of us don’t like to take dialysis, so serum creatinine 330 patients are in a critical stage. The treatment in this time plays an important role. Or else, patients will be at risk. On the basis that most kidney diseases are caused by immune disorder, we created immunotherapy in Kidney Disease Hospital, which consist of immune diagnosis, immune clearance, immune blocking, immune tolerance, immune regulation and immune protection. Next, we mainly explain the main points.
  In immune clearance, we have plasma change, immune adsorption, CRRT, hemoperfusion and so on, we will choose one based on the treatment plan, to help your wife clear those immune complex from the bloodstream. 330 serum creatinine will be lowered for stage 3 kidney disease patients.
  In immune blocking stage, we will use effective immunosuppressive drug to block the inflammation on the kidneys, so the kidneys will be protected from further damage, the immunosuppressive drugs such as Yunke, CyA, matrine injection, we will choose effective immunosuppressive drugs in proper amount based on the treatment plan.
  In immune regulation stage, we will use Chinese Medicine, herb bath or foot massage to degrade those immune complex from the kidneys to protect the kidneys.
  In immune protection stage, we will choose proper cells, such as umbilical cord blood cells, NK cells, CIK, DC-CIK cells to differentiate into new kidney cells to repair the injured kidneys, so kidney function will be improved, NK cells and Treg cells can improve immune ability, we will choose proper cells based on patient's illness condition. In stage 3 of kidney disease, there must be damaged cells in the kidney. immune protection can help repair these cells and rebuild renal function.

  So after such systematic therapy, patients' root cause will be controlled, immune ability will be improved, injured kidneys will be repaired, so kidney function will definitely improved, not only Creatinine level will decline.

GFR and Kidney Function Test

  GFR and Kidney Function Test
  Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the volume of fluid filtered from the renal glomerular capillaries into the Bowman's capsule per unit time. Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) can be calculated by measuring any chemical that has a steady level in the blood, and is freely filtered but neither reabsorbed nor secreted by the kidneys. The rate therefore measured is the quantity of the substance in the urine that originated from a calculable volume of blood. In a word, GFR is used to examine the kidney function.
  Calculated or measured GFR or creatinine clearance has a normal range of 90-120 ml/min. For convenience, this is referred to as 100% of kidney function. For example, if GFR is 15ml/min, that is said to represent approximately 15% of kidney function. GFR (or creatinine clearance) varies with age. There is generally a slow decrease of about 1% of GFR/year from the mid thirties. So at age 70 years, GFR on average is often only 60-70% of the normal.

  When there is damage in the kidney, GRF will decrease, the level of which can also divide chronic kidney disease into 5 stages. In stage 1, GFR is more than 90 ml/min. In stage 2, GFR is between 60 to 89 ml/min. In stage 3 of chronic kidney disease, GFR is 30 to 59 ml/min. In stage 4 of chronic kidney disease, GFR is 15 to 29 ml/min. In stage 5, GFR is less than 15 ml/min.

How to Treat Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 with Immunotherapy

  How to Treat Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 with Immunotherapy
  Stage 3 chronic kidney disease patients are in a critical stage. Although there is half or more than half function is damaged, it can be reversible. Or else, patients will do dialysis or kidney transplant. Most kidney diseases are caused by immune disorder, on the basis of which, we researched our immunotherapy, which is a systematic treating including diagnosis, stem cells and Chinese Medicine, etc. The detailed applications are as follows:
  1) Do some specific Medical tests or diagnosis
  In our hospital, we suggest the patient do some tests like CYs-C, α1 and β2 microglobulin, Micro-albumin, urine enzyme, NAG, GGT etc. These testes can help the patients to know which parts of kidneys get damaged, how much glomeruli and renal tubules get damaged, and what kinds of waste products are accumulated in the patient's body. It is unique for some other hospitals do not have indeed.
  2) Clear the toxin substances and waste products from human body.
  Chinese Medicine can help the patient to expand the blood vessels, take more blood in the vessels, bring the nutrition substance which the body need, and take way the immune substance in the kidneys. What's more, we have a serious of immune clearance technology, such as the Blood Exchange, hemoperfusion, immunoadsorbent technics, dialysis, blood purification etc. to help the patient to discharge the small, middle, big waste products and toxin substances.
  3) Repair the damaged kidneys with Micro-Chinese Medicine
  Chinese Medicine is not an operation and will not cause any pain. Chinese Medicine is superfinely shattered like powder, they are putted into small bags and heated for 45 minutes, and then we put these small bags on the two sides of kidneys according to the Acupuncture Points. What’s more, this process can be achieved with the help of osmosis device, so Chinese Medicine can get into renal lesion effectively. The effective substance can repair the damaged renal cells, and clear the immune complex in the human body. After adopting Chinese Medicine for 3-5 days, the urine color can be changed obviously. (That is immune complex discharge into urine). Chinese Medicine has the function of anti-coagulation, anti-inflammatory,prevent thrombus,degradation.

  With the help of immunotherapy, damaged cells can be repaired and necrotic cells can be differentiated, which can help reveres for stage 3 chronic kidney disease patients.

Diagnosis for IgA Nephropathy

  Diagnosis for IgA Nephropathy
  Accurate diagnosis is the foundation of treatment. Generally, we should diagnosis diagnose whether there is or how much protein in urine or red blood cells in urine, patients should take urine test. We should also do renal biopsy, which can tell us how much IgA is in renal mesengial area. All of these can supply evidence for the schedule of the doctors in clinic. The detailed information goes as follows:
  1. kidney function test
  Blood tests and 24-hour urine collection are needed to assess your kidney function to diagnose IgA nephropathy. You are also suggested to have an iothalamate clearance test, which uses a special contrast agent to track how well your kidneys are filtering wastes. Kidney Disease Hospital is one of the few centers to specialize in iothalamate clearance testing in the dedicated renal pathology laboratory.
  2. renal biopsy
  A renal biopsy is a procedure in which a sample of kidney (also called renal) tissue is obtained. Microscopic examination of the tissue can provide information needed to diagnose, monitor or treat a renal disorder. Renal biopsy is recommended for selected patients with kidney disease. It is most commonly performed when less invasive measures are insufficient. It is the most accurate test to confirm the diagnosis of IgA nephropathy. It can also help determine the severity of the disease.
  3. Kidney imaging. Ultrasound or X-rays also may be used to evaluate the shape or size of your kidneys. A cystoscopy exam can rule out other causes of bleeding in the urinary tract.

  All of these examinations can be carried out in Kidney Disease Hospital to diagnose IgA nephropathy.

Treat Renal Parenchymal Disease with Immunotherapy

  Treat Renal Parenchymal Disease with Immunotherapy
  Parenchymal part is the main part of a kidney, in which, there are numerous renal units such as glomeruli and renal tubules. If damaged, it may lead to great harm. Many kidney diseases take place in renal parenchymal area such as lupus nephritis, diabetic nephropathy, purpura nephritis, etc. In addition, most kidney diseases are caused by immune disorder or damaged immune system. Based on this, in Shijiazhuang Kidney Disease Hospital, we researched out immunotherapy, which is a systematic treatment combining Chinese medicine and western medicine and can be divided into 6 main steps:
  Firstly, Immune diagnosis
  In this step, we should find out the harmful immune complex which causes damage to kidneys, which part of our kidney is damaged, is glomerulis or renal tubules? Our hospital has brought the most advanced equipment to do the special tests, like lymphocyte subsets which can judge patient's immune function; toxins in urine, which can tell us what kinds of toxins are accumulated in patient's body. These toxins may contain uric acid, creatinine, b2-microglobulin, CYS-C, retinol binding protein, homocysteine, immune complex. Only when we have a proper diagnosis on where the immune complex is, how much it is, the exact type of it, can we take specific measures to treat.
  Secondly, Immune clearance
  After finding out the harmful substances in our body, we should clear them. During this step, our hospital can clear the harmful substances (containing micromolecule substances, middle molecular substances, and macromolecules) with the help of many kinds of blood purification equipment, such as hemodialysis, filtration, perfusion, immune absorption, plasma exchange and so on. Then the further damage to our kidneys and other organs can be stopped. After these, a relatively clean inner environment is built up. Please pay attention that in this step, only the immune complex in the blood can be cleared away out of the body and those depositing onto the kidney can not clear away.
  The third one is immune blocking. There is immune complex depositing onto kidney as we mentioned above, which leads to immune response and due to immune system is damaged, the immune reaction can not stopped. In this case, we use medicine which can stop the excessive immune response, thus stopping the inflammation response at a rapid speed for the time being. However, our ultimate aim is to clear away them out.
  The fourth one is immune tolerance. After immune inhibition, the immune response can be stopped. And the damage to the kidney can be blocked. However, the immune complex still deposit onto the kidney, which leads to a new series of immune response. We only make room and time for the final clearance. In this step, our body allows the immune complex to be in the kidney for the time being but not forever.
  The fifth one is immune regulation. In this step, Chinese medicines are applied, which can improve the blood circulation, including micro-blood circulation and dissolve the blood stasis. In this case, the immune complex can be discharged out, and the immune system can be repaired. Note that blood purification such as dialysis can not achieve this.
  The six one is immune protection, in which stage, we also use Chinese medicine or herbs which can nourish Qi and blood to rebuild the intrinsic immune system. In addition, biochemical cell therapy is also used in clinic such as the transplant of stem cell, which can also help achieve this effect. After this, renal parenchymal diseases can be treated from root and will be hard to relapse for the intrinsic immune system is rebuilt and our body can clear away the immune complex, the main pathological materials.

  For more information about how to treat renal parenchymal diseases in Kidney Disease Hospital with immunotherapy, please consult us online or email us. All your information will be kept confidential and we are glad to help.

Serum Creatinine and Kidney Damage or Kidney Disorder

  Serum Creatinine and Kidney Damage or Kidney Disorder
  As you know creatinine is the metabolic product of our body. If there is too much creatinin in body, it will cause a lot of disease even endanger our life. Also because it is excessed by kidney, so it became an indicator to kidney function.
  Every person has two kidneys, one of them lost will not affect people's life, and creatinine level will not change.That means 50% kidney function can sustain people's life. So once creatinine level rises, that means people have lost at least 50% kidney function.
  But there is huge difference between loss one of kidneys and loss 50% of kidney function. After loss one of kidneys , another one will take the whole work, and it can work normally, and it will not loss it function along with time.Loss 50% kidney function means people's kidney are damaging, it a continuous process, people will loss all kidney function along with time.
  So once we find creatinine level rise up, we must take treatment timely. Also there is another misunderstanding about creatinin level. Many people think when creatinine level low down, it means everything was ok. That is a misunderstanding about creatinine level. Creatinine level low down doesn't means kidney function get better. It is easy to low down creatinine level, such as slow down metabolic progress, control creatinine by medicine. But it only try to redue the quantity of creatinine or increase the urine output to carry off more creatinine, rather than repair kidney and improve kidney function to excess more creatinine. This misunderstanding kill millions of people every year.
  Many people after they found their cratinine level rise up, they see doctor, then doctor give them some diuretic medicine(increase the unrine output to carry off more creatinine) and told them less exercise(slow down metabolic progress,redue the quantity of creatinine ), then creatinine level low down.

  People think they are ok, their problem resolved and their kidney has recovery. Until one day they found swelling, itching, vomitting, fatigue, anemia.etc occur , then they were told renal failure. Next is dialysis and transplant. So please be alert and test blood or urine to find kidney disorder as early as possible.

How to Treat Diabetes with Immunotherapy

  How to Treat Diabetes with Immunotherapy
  For Diabetes, we mainly adopted a systematic immunotherapy consists of immunoadsorption technique, herbal osmotherapy and stem cell therapy to rectify the disorder in insulin secretion and acceptance system. For type two diabetes, the pancreas islet secretes insulin, but certain amount of these insulin are of faulty structure. In addition, the whole body immune system in type 2 diabete patient is in disorder, which makes cells insensitive to insulin stimulation.
  These two factors contribute to inefficient sugar utilization within body and sugar retention within body. Diabetes itself is not fatal, but the danger exists in various complications that might be caused by high sugar level. For example, inefficient sugar utilization leads to lipid dissolving, and lipid deposition on blood vessels can easily give rise to thrombus. Thrombus in the brain, heart and kidneys are the main causation of diabetic patient's death.

  Based on the specific pathology of diabetes, the immunotherapy is adopted to rectify this disorder in insulin secretion and acceptance system. First, herbal therapies are adopted to promote whole body blood circulation and degrade blood stasis to prevent the formation of thrombus. This therapy also enhances self-recuperating ability of immune system. Stem cell therapies focus on restructuring the pancreas islet and enhance pancreas islet secreting normal structure insulin. T-reg cell therapy, also enhances cells' sensitivity to insulin to promote insulin utilization within body. Clinical practice has shown a satisfying therapeutic effect, and especially for early stage Diabetic patients.

Can Blood Transfusion Remit Kidney Anemia?

  Can Blood Transfusion Remit Kidney Anemia?
  Can blood transfusion remit kidney anemia? Kidney anemia usually takes place in stage 5 of chronic kidney disease, in which condition, red blood cells are damaged due to too many toxins in the blood or decreased EPO, which can generate red blood cells. In stage 5 of chronic kidney disease, due to anemia, patients look pale or yellow on the face and will also feel fatigue. So it can not be delayed to take effective measures. Considering there is not enough fresh blood, many patients consider blood transfusion, thinking transfusion of fresh blood can remit at least for the time being.
  On one hand, blood transfusion can indeed remit kidney anemia to some extent, which can help patients look fresher and energetic.
  One the other hand, blood transfusion can not solve the renal anemia problem from root. Kidney has function of generating EPO. However, in stage 5 of chronic kidney disease, the renal function is damaged, so the generation of EPO is influenced, thus causing reduced red blood cells and in this case, anemia comes into being. Moreover, in the late stage of kidney disease, a lot of toxic materials accumulates, which leads to the damage to the red blood cells and the inhibition of hematopoietic function is also damaged. Shortened lifespan of red blood cells leads to anemia.
  On the basis of this, we can figure out what we can do to treat kidney anemia instead of blood transfusion.
  Firstly, we should clear away the toxins with blood purification methods such as hemodialysis, filtration, plasma exchange, etc.
  Secondly, we should recover kidney function, which can remit renal anemia from root. Once kidney is damaged, there must be damaged cells in the kidney. Only western medicine can not repair so we should make full use of herbs, which contain active materials and nutrition, thus relieving the insufficiency of blood and oxygen in the kidney. Then, it can also repair the damaged cells by supplying nutrition, thus reviving cells. After these, EPO can be secreted well and red blood cells can generate as well.

  Have you figured out how to remit kidney anemia or renal anemia by herbs instead of blood transfusion? If you still have any questions, please consult us online or email us.

Can Stage 3 CKD Patients Have Nausea or Vomiting?

  Can Stage 3 CKD Patients Have Nausea or Vomiting?
  Can stage 3 CKD patients have nausea or vomiting? According to GFR, chronic kidney disease can be divided into 5 stages. The normal range of GFR is 80 to 120 ml/min. In the third stage, GFR falls to 30~59 ml/min. Serum creatinine is 186-442umol/L, the normal range of which is 44 to 103 umol/L. Symptoms can be such as pain in lower back, increased urine at night, fatigue, and so on. If nausea and vomiting appears, it indicates that there must be damage in digestive system, which usually takes place in stage 4 and even stage 5 of chronic kidney disease. If not controlled well, nausea and vomiting will appear sooner or later. The reasons go as follows:
  One important function for kidney is to filter blood, thus filtering toxins and immune complex out. However, when kidney fails, such toxins and immune complex will exist in blood and move with blood circulation, which even deposit onto organs or tissues and so on. After they are in digestive and brain system, nausea and vomiting will appear, which also indicates that in this stage, the condition is severe in deed. It is also a bad prognosis if stage 3 kidney disease can not be treated well.

  Stage 3 is a critical stage, in which, condition can be reversible if treated effectively and GFR can increase with the help of immunotherapy including stem cell, herbs and so on. Most kidney diseases are caused by immune disorder, on the basis of which, immunotherapy is researched out in Kidney Disease Hospital, which is a systematic treatment and also a combination of Chinese herbs and stem cell. On the basis of herbs, after micrio-process, Chinese Medicine is created, which can not only repair the damaged cells but also increase the immune ability.

Diet or food for kidney stone patients

          Diet or food for kidney stone patients
  Improper diet is one of main causes of Calculus Diseases. Metabolic disorder in body, caused by long-term unscientific diet, induces Kidney Stone disease. So, it’s important to keep a healthy dietary habit in our daily life. For Kidney Stone patients, some foods are introduced as follows:
  1. In daily life, more water and more exercise can benefit Renal Stone patients, which help renal calculi to be discharged outside body. Meat intake should be limited, specially, livers of animals. During treatment, Renal Stone patients should eat less beef, mutton and foods with rich vitamin C which will produce oxalate acid in its metabolic progress, leading to stones forming.
  2. Salt and vegetables containing oxalate should also be eaten less, because oxalate will combine with calcium in body to produce calcium oxalate which will deposit in body to form stones. Green vegetable contains much oxalate, especially, spinach with the highest oxalate. Excessive depositing of oxalate acid causes Renal Stone. Such high oxalate foods contain spinach, beans, grapes, cocoas, tea, oranges, tomatoes, potatoes, plums, bamboo shoots and so on. Research found 725.6mg oxalate acid is contained in every 200g spinach. If a patient eat up 200g spinach once,20 to 25 milligrams oxalate acid will be excreted along in urine after 8 hours, which is equal to the average quantity of oxalate acid discharged by a normal person in 24 hours.
  3. What’s more, purine metabolic disorder, excessive fat intake, sugar in body increasing, excessive protein and so on are all the main causes of Renal Stone disease.
  4. Besides, drinking less water is also a main inducement. More water should be drunk after taking exercises and sweating especially in hot seasons, so as to prevent urine from being concentrated excessively and to prevent crystal in urine from depositing. Fresh water is still the perfect choice to complement body moisture although juice, soup and milk can be supplementary choice.
  5. Renal Stone patients can’t drink milk before sleeping in night, because milk contains much calcium which is contained largely in renal stone. The most dangerous factor, which causes calculi, is the sudden growth of calcium in urine in a short time. 2 to 3 hours after drinking milk is the peak period that calcium is discharged through kidneys. If patients are sleeping then, it will quicken the forming of calculi, because urine will concentrate and much calcium will have to be discharged through kidney.

  6. Furthermore, Renal Stone may be caused by drinking more and less water. Renal Stone patients should pay attention on proper food pairings in daily life instead of just eating one kind of food for a long time. Or, besides of malnutrition, Renal Stone may be caused when malnutrition is serious. So, for your health, please keep a proper and healthy diet.www.kidneytcm.com

Hematuria (Blood in Urine) in CKD Stage 3

  Hematuria (Blood in Urine) in CKD Stage 3
  In CKD stage 3, there will appear many symptoms such as high blood pressure, proteinuria, pain in the lower back, etc. Besides these, hematuria or blood urine is also concerned by many patients, which can be divided into gross hematuria and microscopic hematuria. We can see gross hematuria with our naked eyes. The urine looks reddish, which is like water where flesh is washed. We can only see microscopic hematuria with the help of microscopy. There are more than 3 red blood cells per high power field.
  Gross hematuria can vary widely in appearance, from light pink to deep red with clots. Despite the quantity of blood in the urine being different, the types of conditions that can cause the problem are the same, and the workup or evaluation that is needed is identical.
  What are the causes of blood in urine?
  The causes of gross and microscopic hematuria are similar and may result from bleeding anywhere along the urinary tract. One cannot readily distinguish between blood originating in the kidneys, ureters (the tubes that transport urine from the kidneys to the bladder), bladder, or urethra.
  Here, we mainly research renal hematuria, which means that blood urine is caused by the damage of kidney. In kidney, there is renal glomerular filtration membrane, through which, only small molecules such as creatinine, urea nitrogen and urea acid, etc can leak out. When kidney is damaged, there is also damage in this filtration membrane, thus causing the leaking out of red blood cell, the urine of which is caused hematuria or blood urine.

  In stage 3 of chronic kidney disease, hematuria or blood urine comes into being like this. If not treated well, the leaking out of red blood cells will worsen blood urine in turn, which forms a vicious circle for the pore of basilar membrane will become bigger.www.kidneytcm.com

How to Treat Protein in Urine?

  How to Treat Protein in Urine?
  How to treat protein in urine? Usually, they control urine protein by oral medicines like hormone, tripterygium, cyclophosphamide, etc. Then, symptoms like urine protein will be improved soon, even disappear. So, they are very happy that their disease is recovered. However, after a short time, stimulated by cold, tire, and other pessimal stimulation, their urine protein appear again, what is more, their condition becomes much more serious than last time. Thereupon, they began to take hormone, tripterygium, etc again. Repeatedly like this, not only, their urine protein does not disappear completely, but also, they appear severe obesity, acne, ascitic fluid, etc.
  How to treat protein in urine? In fact, to some extent, the urine protein, edema, and other symptoms are the superficial phenomenon of renal inherent cells occurring fibrosis. At present, if the patients adopt medicine for urine protein to block the hole of damaged basilar membrane. The urine protein, urine blood are controlled, but at the same time, the destructive substance and immune complex are blocked in the glomeruli as well. Then, the toxins excreted by kidneys can not be discharged, accumulating gradually, worsening illness condition.
  According to the current most advanced diagnosis and treatment therapy of kidney disease, “Renal fibrosis theory”, although pathological changes causing urine protein are different in types, all they belong to the progressive process of renal fibrosis. Extracellular matrix deposits abnormally more and more, and normal renal inherent cells become less and less until disappearance completely, the disease develops into Uremia. Renal fibrosis is the root cause of renal urine protein.

  In Kidney Disease Hospital, we treat protein in urine with Chinese Medicine. On the theory that protein leaks out through renal glomerular basilar membrane, Chinese Medicine can repair the basilar membrane by improving blood circulation, remit insufficiency of blood and oxygen and so on. Its main element is Chinese herbs which has no side effect and can also enhance the immunity, thus preventing protein in urine recurring. For more information about how to treat protein in urine, please consult us online for a further communication.

Treat Chronic Renal Parenchymal Disease Stage 3

  Treat Chronic Renal Parenchymal Disease Stage 3
  How to treat chronic renal parenchymal disease stage 3? Renal parenchyma is on the opposite of renal interstitial part. Most main and important elements such as renal glomeruli are in renal parenchymal area. So once chronic renal parenchymal area is damaged, patients should be cautious for it plays a critical role on the function of kidney.
  According to GFR, which is short for glomerular filtration rate, chronic renal parenchymal disease can also be divided into 5 stages. It is applied all around the world in most of the countries. The normal range of GFR is 80 to 120 ml/min. In the third stage, GFR falls to 30~59 ml/min. Serum creatinine is 186-442umol/L, the normal range of which is 44 to 103 umol/L. There are damaged cells such as renal glomerular membrane, which can also explain why there in elevated serum creatinine for in normal condition, creatinine leaks out of the body through the renal glomerular basilar membrane. In addition, after it is damaged, red blood cells and proteins will also leak out, thus causing hematuria and proteinuria and even high blood pressure or hypertension and so on.
  Stage 3 chronic renal parenchymal disease patients are in a critical stage and if not treated well, patients will take dialysis for in most countries, kidney disease patients take dialysis when serum creatinine is as high as 445 umol/L. And the key point is to repair the damaged filtration membrane, which we can not achieve by hormones and immunosuppressive agent.

  On the basis of this, Chinese Medicine is created, which contains active materials and can promote the blood circulation, dissolve the blood stasis and repair the damaged cells for stage 3 chronic renal parenchymal disease patients. In addition, it can also increase the immunity of patients, thus stopping relapse of it as well for most chronic kidney diseases are caused by immune disorder.www.kidneytcm.com 

Diet or Food for Lupus Nephritis

  Diet or Food for Lupus Nephritis
  Diet or food also play important role in the recovering of lupus nephritis. Hope the following are food which they can not eat:
  1. Spicy food such as pepper, green onion, garlic, and so on.
  2. Coriander(carary) and celery can make lupus nephritis patients more sensitive to the light and worsen red butterfly shaped scar on face.
  3. Alcohol and smoking should also be forbidden, which can also do harm to the recovery.
  Besides these, lupus nephritis patients should also pay attention to the following one which they should hold on.
  1. The intake of salt: patients with Lupus Nephropathy often are suggested to limit the intake of salt, which has an enormous relationship with edema and blood volume to a certain extent. Broadly speaking, high salt can absorb moisture to the blood vessels, and then the hypertension and edema occur. And the urinating function also can be damaged, then the blood volume increases, further the heart failure occurs. So the intake of salt each day should be decided under the doctor's instruction.
  2. The damage on kidney caused by seasoning: some seasonings can damage the kidney directly. For example, the excessive intake of monosodium glutamate can make patients thirsty. So during the edema, it is better for patients to take less monosodium glutamate, in order to avoid the conflict with the controlling of water and the aggravation of edema. Other intense seasonings, like pepper, black mustard, curry, hot pepper, not only can bring the burden to peptic digestion, but also can damage the kidney to a certain extent. So it is necessary for the patients to reduce or avoid the salt intake.
  3. The limitation of the liquid quantity: the severity of edema is related with the special condition of patients. And we should limit the intake of liquid according to the edema, especially when the edema is very serious.
  4.The intake of food with high fat: the intake of animal fat should be limited in the daily diet, avoiding taking excessively; but that doesn't mean we can't take any, for no intake of fat for the patients with lupus nephropathy will make the body weak. So we'd better using vegetable oil and so on.
  5. the proper intake of protein: a proper intake of protein is related with the renal function. If oliguresis, edema, hypertension and nitrogen detention happen to patients, the intake of protein should be controlled under the doctor's guidance, avoiding the storage of non protein nitrogen and the aggravation the kidney burden. Some foods with high protein, like tofu, mutton, fish, egg, milk etc. can produce nitrogenous wastes easily, which is difficult to discharge for lupus nephritis patients.
  (6)Avoidance of foods with high nitrogen and purine: generally we should reduce the intake of food which can stimulate the kidney cells, like spinach, celery, radish, bean product, sardine and chicken soup and so on which contains large quantity of nitrogen and purine. When the renal function is damaged, these wastes can't be discharged normally and the discharge of nitrogen can't be completed in time, so in this situation, we should take less food with high nitrogen.

  The above are about the diet or food for lupus nephritis patients. Hope it can help you.www.kidneytcm.com

Why Low Blood Pressure after Dialysis

  Why Low Blood Pressure after Dialysis
  Why is there low blood pressure after dialysis? Creatinine is an important index which indicates whether kidney disease patients need to take dialysis. Generally, in western countries, kidney failure patients begin to take dialysis when creatinine is more than 450umol/L, which can help discharge the small toxic molecules such as urea acid, urea nitrogen and so on besides creatinine, thus relieving the damage to the body and lessen burden to the kidney.
  However, in the course of the dialysis, about 20% to 40% of kidney disease patients have low blood pressure, which even make some weak person in coma. Some yawn, feeling urinating, have pain in lower back, and then feel nausea, have pale face, sweat, hard to breathe, and so on. How should we avoid this?
  1. If kidney disease under dialysis loose consciousness, doctor should give him injection of 100 to 200 ml saline or 50% glucose. If the injection of liquid is more than 500 ml but still can not make it, we should check if there are other causes.
  2. Kidney disease patients themselves should also control the intake of water, salt and protein.
  3. Set proper dry body weight. Ultrafilter should not be excessive when dialysis.
  4. Bicarbonate should be applied during the treatment of dialysis.
  5. The density of sodium in dislysate should be lower than the density of sodium in blood.
  6. Kidney disease patients who have low blood pressure should not take in hypotensor before dialysis.
  7. Correct the anemia and add carnitine.

  Last but not least, considering the side effects of low blood pressure after dialysis, specialists in Kidney Disease Hospital created Chinese Medicine which can help kidney disease patients escape from dialysis for it can not only discharges the toxins but also repair the damaged cells in the kidney.

Food for Kidney Disease Patients with High Potassium

  Food for Kidney Disease Patients with High Potassium
  With kidney disease develops into kidney failure, electrolyte will be out of order, which leads to high potassium and so on, which will threaten patients’ life if it lasts for a long time. In addition, food or diet in this stage is also concerned by kidney disease patients with high potassium. The principles are as follows:
  1, Limit the salt intake: in order to protect the kidneys, reduce the work load, salt intake should be less than 3 grams every day.
  2,High quality protein food:such as fish, chicken, milk,egg white,etc. Limit plant protein as they are not easy to be absorbed, such as bean curd, soy-bean milk and soy products.
  3, Should pay attention to high calcium low phosphorus: usually high calcium things often also high phosphorus such like animal organs, ribs, shrimp skin and so on.
  4, Forbidden of stimulating effect of food, such as mustard, onion, ginger, garlic,chili,(no smoking or drinking).
  5, Control water intake: You know drink too much water will gain too much burden to the kidney, and as the hot weather and sweat a lot, then just drink some water to supply the lost water is OK. In addition, need to pay attention to the water content of the food.
  6, Limit potassium foods: if the daily urine volume more than 1000 ml and potassium is normal,then there is no limited for fruits and vegetables. But if a high potassium or less urine, still should limit high potassium food such as rape, spinach, leek, tomato, kelp, banana, peach, etc.
  7.Limit fat intake: the proposal with olive oil, peanut oil cooking are good choice.

  8.Vitamin supplements:it can maintain the metabolization balance of human body:more vegetables and fruits, such as apples, pears cucumber, tomato, etc,( especially good for anemia ).But eating fruit and vegetables should pay attention to avoid high potassium ones.

Food for IgA Nephritis Patients

  Food for IgA Nephritis Patients
  Many IgA Nephritis patients are concerned about the food for it can also assist the treatment, the principles of which go as follows:
  First, limit of protein intake. If IgA Nephritis patients have too much protein, it will produce too much nitrogen waste after metabolism, which will load the kidney. If you have little urine, these wastes can’t be excreted out of the body, it will accumulate in the body, causing a series of symptoms of poisoning. Therefore, in the diet, you should avoid foods rich in protein, such as bean products. When the disease condition improves, you can increase protein intake properly.
  Second, limit of salt and water. The patients with serious edema, hypertension, oliguria should have salt-free diet. And daily water intake shouldn’t be more than 800 to 1200 liters. At the same time, don’t eat pickled vegetables, pickles, salted egg, fermented bean curd, hot pickled mustard tuber that are rich in sodium. When swelling reduces, urine volume increases, the patients can have low salt diet, about 2 to 3 grams every day.
  Third, you'd better eat light foods with diuretic and eliminating swelling effect, such as carp, crucian carp, ewe's milk, watermelon, white gourd, green bean, red bean and so on. The boiled water with watermelon rind has good diuretic effect.
  Fourth, IgA Nephritis patients should eat foods rich in vitamins, such as fresh vegetables and fruits, which can not only supply a variety of vitamins, but also it can improve the recovery of renal function.

  Lastly, rich vitamin is also necessary. This is summer, which can supply a variety of fruits which is fresh and can help the recovery of IgA Nephritis patients.

Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 and Anemia

  Chronic Kidney Disease Stage 3 and Anemia
  Why do patients with chronic kidney disease have anemia? On the basis of GFR, chronic kidney disease can be divided into 5 stages. In stage 3 of chronic kidney disease, GFR falls to 30~59 ml/min. Serum creatinine in stage 3 is 186-442umol/l. With damage develops, in chronic kidney disease stage, kinds of symptoms have come out such as hematuria and proteinuria with the renal basilar membrane damaged. In addition, anemia and nephrotic hypertension come into being as well. When anemia comes out, patients will look pale, hard to breathe and loss of appetite, which indicates that patients must take effective measure at once. To treat it better, firstly, let’s know about two main reasons:
  1. The generation of red blood cells decreases. The common factors are the decreased generation of EPO, the function of inhibiting factor which inhibit the generation of red blood cells, insufficiency of vitamin and trace elements. In stage 3 chronic kidney disease, renal secretion function is damaged. Accordingly, EPO will also be damaged, thus causing decreased amount of red blood cells.
  2. On the other hand, since renal failure comes into being in stage 3 chronic kidney disease, kidney functions are lost, one of which is to filter toxins such as creatinine, urea acid and urea nitrogen, etc. Since the kidney function is lost, such toxins will accumulate in the blood, which will lead to the insufficiency of blood and oxygen to the red blood cells, so the lifespan of red blood cells are shortened.
  After we know the reasons why there is anemia in stage 3 kidney disease, we can think of measures to treat it. On one hand, we should clear away the toxins and on the other hand, we should repair the damaged cells in the kidney.
  Firstly, since that creatinine in stage 3 is 186-442umol/l, it is necessary to have blood purification first of all, which can lay a foundation for the repair of the damaged cells in the kidney.

  Secondly, we should repair the damaged cells in the kidney, which play the roles of secreting such as EPO. We can achieve this in Kidney Disease Hospital with the help of Chinese Medicine, which contains active materials and can repair the damaged cells by relieving insufficiency of blood and oxygen, which can reviving the secretion of EPO, thus turning red blood cells amount into normal and diminishing anemia from root.

Treatment of Lupus Nephritis

                    Treatment of Lupus Nephritis
  It means the immune system in patients’ body is abnormal,the immune response is abnormal, the abnormal immune response not only can eliminate those antigen, but also can fight the normal cells and organs, causing damage on them. Excessive immune complex will be deposited on the kidneys, leading to the damage on the kidneys, then protein leaking problem will occur.
  1) So in order to control Lupus, patients need to take a series of medical tests to know clearly the form of lupus, the amount of immune complex, the accurate location of immune complex. What test results has he taken? Pls ask him to send me his recent test reports.
  2) Taking immunosuppressive drugs to prevent the abnormal immune response. The amount of medicine can’t be taken too much, or the normal immune response will be affected and excessive immunosuppressive drugs will cause serious side effects on patients. Also the amount of medicine can’t too little, or it can’t prevent the abnormal immune response.
  3) The abnormal immune response has been blocked, but the previous immune complex on the kidneys must be removed.
  4) After the immune complex is removed, the injured kidneys need to be repaired.
  In other hospitals, you need to see Lupus experts and then kidney experts. As for your condition, you are now suffering from Lupus Nephritis. The root cause of your illness is the lupus, if you first treats Lupus, regardless of your injured kidneys, your kidneys will be injured continuously. If you firstly repair his kidneys through some good therapies, regardless of the root cause of illness. Your illness won’t be treated thoroughly forever.
  If you can take the immune therapy in our hospital, we can treat Lupus and injured kidneys simultaneously.
  1) In our hospital, we have advanced test device, such as IQ21, after he takes a series of medical tests in our hospital, we can find out the form of lupus, the form of abnormal immune response, the amount of immune complex, the location of immune complex.
  2) After experts group discussion, a specific treatment schedule will be made out. Based on the test results, we will choose proper immunosuppressive drugs and in proper amount to stop the abnormal immune response, in order to control the illness condition of Lupus. Besides, in our hospital, we have Immunoadsorption and Plasma Exchange.
  3) How to remove those immune complex on the kidneys? Using a unique herbal medicine of our hospital, Micro-Chinese medicine to digest the immune complex, through dilating blood vessels, anticoagulation, anti-inflammation, those immune complex will be removed from the body, and more nutrient and blood will be sent to the kidneys, to help the kidneys heal themselves. Pls note, patients don’t need to drink the bitter herbal medicine, the herbal medicine is sent to body through osmosis therapy, so such therapy is called as Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy.

  4) At last, we will inject some stem cells into patients’ body through vein. Stem cells have strong abilities of multi-differentiation and self-renewing, they can differentiate into new kidney cells to relapse those necrotic kidney cells, so the kidneys will be repaired.

How to Treat PKD with Chinese Medicine in China

  How to Treat PKD with Chinese Medicine in China
  PKD is an autosomal dominant hereditary disease and patients usually have a family history. And its incidence rate is 50% and the abnormal gene can be passed from generation to generation. With the enlargement of cysts, patient's kidney will become big so your belly will enlarge correspondingly. Patients usually have some common symptoms like high blood pressure, inconsistant hematuria, back pain, fatigue and so on.
  Actually, the most dangerous factor for PKD is that the enlarged cyst can press normal renal tissue, thus causing ischemia and anoxia in kidneys. Kidneys fail to work gradually. There is no effective treatment which can remove genetic disease at present. But that is not to say we can do nothing about this disease. Cllinical experience shows that as long as we can control the enlargement of cysts, renal function can be protected and patient can lead a normal life in that case. It is proven that the smaller cysts are, the fewer discomforts there is. So early treatment is quite necessary to reduce the discomforts.
  Our treatment for PKD in Kidney Disease Hospital is called Chinese Medicine. This is not an oral medicine but an external osmotherapy. The effective component can penetrate into human body through waist area. Patients can take this treatment just by lying on the bed. The mechanism of the treatment is to dilate blood vessels, restrain the hyperplasia of cystic cells, increase the permeability of cystic cells.

  By taking this treatment, cysts can stop enlargement and begin to shrink gradually, which can effectively reduce cysts' pressure on kidneys. Consequently, renal function can be protected. Compared with western surgery, this treatment has low side-effect, and will not impair normal renal tissue. As per patient's reaction to the medicine, patients need to take the treatment 2-3 times each day and it takes 45mins per time, patients can feel massaged during the treatment, safe and comfortable.

Why Puffy Eyes in Renal Failure

               Why Puffy Eyes in Renal Failure
  Why are there puffy eyes in renal failure especially in the morning? Renal failure or kidney failure means that the kidney fails to filer blood, secrete EPO, regulate blood pressure, and so on. When kidney filters blood, excessive water will be filtered out of the body through renal tubules. So when renal tubules are damaged, it fails to filter blood, including water, thus causing the retention of water, which leads to edema or dropsy. Edema usually first appears in eyes, for there are loose tissue in the eye area. So puffy eyes come into being, which takes place especially in the morning.
  Since we have found out the reason why there occur puffy eyes, we should be confident and take effective measures to treat it. Traditionally, diuretic can help discharge the excessive water in the body, which however is for the time being for it can not treat renal failure. What shall we do on earth? When kidney failure or renal failure occurs, there must be damaged cells in the kidney, which indicates that we must repair the damaged cell, thus stopping puffy eyes or else, edema will spread, thus accelerating renal failure.
  In Kidney Hospital, we have Chinese Medicine, which consist of herbs that can improve the blood circulation, discharge the stasis and repair the damaged cells in the kidney, including renal tubules. After these cells are repaired, excessive water can be filtered out of the body, thus diminishing puffy eyes and stop renal failure.

  So renal failure patients with puffy eyes are suggested to take treatment as soon as possible. It is maybe the critical period. If missed, kidney function will be hard to reverse. Monitor blood pressure, blood sugar, creatinine and GFR, etc, which can also tell us how serious the kidney failure is.www.kidneytcm.com

Can Kidney Disease Patients Eat Prawn or Shrimps?

  Can Kidney Disease Patients Eat Prawn or Shrimps?
  Can kidney disease patients eat prawn or shrimps? Prawn and shrimps contain rich protein and other nutrition such as calcium, iron, phosphrus, etc, all of which can do good to the body.
  Specialists in kidney disease field also point out that protein is metabolized in liver and is discharged in kidney. So when kidney disease patients eat prawn or shrimps, they should pay attention to the amount for the principle of protein in kidney disease should be low.
  In addition, purpura nephritis patients and lupus nephritis should be cautious to eat prawn or shrimps.

  Last but not least, if the patients with kidney disease are high in phosphorus in the later stage, they should limit prawn or shrimps for prawn and shrimps are also rich in phosphorus, which is not good for the recovery of kidney disease.

Can Diabetic Nephropathy Eat Pumpkin

  Can Diabetic Nephropathy Eat Pumpkin
  Can diabetic nephropathy eat pumpkin? Diabetic nephropathy is a kind of secondary kidney disorder which is caused by long time diabetes, which is mainly characterized by high blood sugar in the blood.
  Pumpkin is benefit for the human body, which contains rich fiber, a variety of vitamin, calcium, potassium and so on. 3% to 15% of a pumpkin is sugar, which is also low energy food.
  Whether patients with diabetic nephropathy can eat pumpkin is up to the amount of pumpkin they take in. Generally, if the amount we take in is 100g, it is good for the health of diabetic kidney disease patients. At the same time, the staple food should be reduced by 20%.
  In addition, if diabetic kidney disease patients take in a large amount of pumpkin every day, it is harmful to the body.

  Last but not least, besides pumpkin, diabetic nephropathy can also choose other kinds of vegetables and fruit which are rich in vitamin, etc.www.kidneytcm.com

Fruit Diet for Lupus Nephritis Patients

  Fruit Diet for Lupus Nephritis Patients
  Home remedies can also play roles in avoiding lupus nephritis. The following are fruit diet for lupus nephritis.
  1. carrot juice
  Patients with lupus nephropathy should take in a glass of carrot juice in the morning every day, which can be accompanied by honey and lime juice.
  2. bananas
  If the electrolyte is in order or there is normal range of potassium, lupus nephritis people can take in bananas, which contains rich vitamins and can help recover.
  3. grapes
  Grapes have significant role on explanation of their high contents of water and potassium salt. Their price in kidney troubles like nephritis is improved by their low albumin and sodium chloride happy.
  4. coconut water
  Coconut water can play diuretic roles as well as contains nutrition especially the vitamin, which is essential for all kidney disease patients including lupus nephritis.
  5. apples
  An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Apples no doubt play an important role in the maintaining of balance for it not only contains vitamins but also contains fiber and so on. Fiber can help discharge toxins in the body, thus reducing burden of the kidney. In addition, among vegetables, celery can also achieve this for it is also rich in fiber.
  6. watermelon
  Watermelon contains large amount of water, which can not only supply vitamin but also help discharge water or excessive liquid in the body. It can also play diuretic roles as coconuts. If lupus nephritis patients have no edema, they can choose watermelon as well.

  The above mentioned are about the fruit diet for patients with lupus nephritis. For more information, please consult us online or leave a message.

Treat Kidney Disease with Chinese Medicine

  Treat Kidney Disease with Chinese Medicine
  Chinese Medicine is applied in clinic to treat kidney disease in Kidney Disease Hospital, China.
  Chinese Medicine consists of three parts, namely, the unique traditional Chinese medicine, Micro process technique and the microwave osmosis technique. The combination of these above three unique substances guarantees the curative effect of treating Kidney problems. The main advantages of this therapy are as follows.
  First, improve the curative effect.
  After the process of Ultrasonic Cavitation, traditional Chinese medicine will be micronized into TCM particles. By this, effective ingredients of traditional Chinese medicine will be fully released and their penetrability will also become more powerful. Powerful penetrability of effective ingredients guarantees the free infiltration of them into renal lesions. These effective ingredients combine with broken renal molecular chain and form new renal cells and tissues. These effective ingredients take effect quickly and specifically target at renal lesion. The patient’s most obvious feeling during this period is the fast retreat of various symptoms.
  Second, directly get to renal lesions
  The Back-Shu point is a special acupuncture point which is closely related to the kidneys. If any abnormality occurs to the kidneys, discomfort of this point will be the first overt symptom. Under the support of microwave osmoscope and through this acupuncture point, Chinese Medicine will be delivered directly into renal lesions. Effective ingredients of Chinese medicine will promote the permeability of glomerular basement membrane, restore the damaged charge barrier, and reduce the leakage of protein and red blood cells. In addition, these effective ingredients can also dilate blood vessels and enhance blood micro-circulation, which helps with the expelling of toxic substances. This curative effect is especially obvious for patients with renal failure. The fast excretion of wastes and toxic substances leads to decrease of serum creatinine and urea nitrogen levels.
  Third, select suitable wavelength
  We can measure the distance from Back Surface to the renal lesions, and under the support of computer we can set up osmoscope intermediate frequency electric current of various wavelength and wave form. Under the action of pulse current, effective ingredients of Chinese medicine will osmoe into renal lesions within one minute. This method guarantees that enough effective ingredients get to the renal lesions. The curative effects include activating immune system of patients who suffer from low-immunity, and accordingly suppress the immune system of patients who suffer from excessive immune activities. Effective ingredients can also rectify the dysfunction of inner body, reduce Mesangial proliferation, alleviate the cystic pressure to renal tissue, and slow down the fibrosis speed of glomerulus.
  Fourth, this method will guarantee a long-term effect
  Effective ingredients combine with renal broken molecular chain and forms new molecules, and through this, DNA of damaged cells will be restored and activated to reproduce. The blood vessel dilating effects enhance blood inflow to the kidneys which promote renal tissue metabolic activity. With the filtrating of cyst liquid into urine and the inactivation of cyst wall, renal cysts will retreat and thus reduce the pressure to renal tissues. Effective ingredients provide restoring materials to damaged cells. Finally, the purpose of rebuilding kidney structure and restoring kidney function is achieved, and the retreating of various symptoms will be something of certainty. The elimination of symptoms is based on the regain of renal function, so a long term curative effect can be guaranteed
  Fifth, Chinese Medicine has no adverse effects. Chinese medicine is prevailed as ‘gentle medicine’ which means it won’t cause serious reaction of the body immune system. In addition, through external application, patients can also relieve themselves from taking decocted medicines orally which usually give rise to abnormality of digestive system.

  The above is about how Chinese Medicine treat kidney disease. For more information, please consult us online or leave a message.

When and Why Kidney Disease Patients Are Told to Drink Less Water

  When and Why Kidney Disease Patients Are Told to Drink Less Water
  When and why kidney disease patients are told to drink less water? Generally, normal people are suggested to take in 6 cups of water every day to make sure the enough amount the body needs and help discharge the toxins from metabolism such as creatinine, urea acid and urea nitrogen, etc. Especially in summer, with people are sweating, we need to take in more water so as to add the salt and other materials we lost in the sweat.
  When and why kidney disease patients are told to drink less water? For those whose kidney disease is not serious, patients need not control the intake of water and take in less water. However, for those who are suffering from edema( oedema or dropsy), they are ordered to limit the intake of water. Edema is because the kidney’s filtration function is severely damaged. In this case, if we take in average amount of water, they still can not be filtrated. Patients with kidney disease will have more severe edema ( oedema or dropsy). For those with serious edema, patients even can not take in any water for the time being.
  Besides controlling water, salt intake should also be restricted. It is because salt will absorb more water, thus causing retention of water and sodium, thus giving kidney more burden.
  In addition, when kidney disease patients are suggested to take in less water, the intake of liquid such as soup and orange juice, etc should also be considered as water intake.

  So to get rid of this condition, patients should take in effective measures as soon as possible. In Kidney Disease Hospital, we have a patient from Yemen. He came here with entire edema so that he even could not lie down and sleep well. After the systematic immunotherapy in our kidney disease hospital, the lost weight by 10 kg and the edema diminish. For more information, welcome to consult.

Hypertension or High Blood Pressure in Dialysis in Kidney Failure

  Hypertension or High Blood Pressure in Dialysis in Kidney Failure
  Why is there hypertension or high blood pressure in dialysis in kidney failure patients? Hypertension or high blood pressure is a main complication in the treatment of dialysis, which often leads to heart failure and death. The statistics shows that before dialysis, about 80% to 100% uremia patients have had high blood pressure or hypertension. 87% diabetic kidney disease patients still can not control blood pressure after dialysis. Long time high blood pressure can really lead to threaten to patients.
  Generally, high blood pressure or hypertension after dialysis can be divided into 2 kinds.
  1. Capacity dependence high blood pressure, which usually takes place in the early stage of dialysis. Its main pathological mechanism is the retention of water and sodium, which makes the body weight increase the by 3% to 4%. There is edema, extending heart size and so on. In addition, there is also risk of heart failure. When body weight increases, blood pressure will increase accordingly.

  2. Renin dependence high blood pressure, which takes place one hour after dialysis. Dialysis can lead to the decrease of body liquid, thus causing the further increase of renin activity, thus causing the deterioration of high blood pressure.

How does Diabetes Cause Kidney Disease?

  How does Diabetes Cause Kidney Disease?
  How does diabetes cause kidney disease (damage)? It is concerned by many people. Diabetes takes place when the body begins to have a problem with insulin, either by not being able to produce enough or by becoming resistant to utilizing the insulin produced. Either way, both types can lead to kidney damage, if not properly treated. Since insulin is the hormone responsible for prompting the cells to uptake sugar from the blood, diabetic patients typically have high blood sugar levels.
  If the diabetes last for a long time, the high blood sugar condition will damage the small blood vessels in the entire body including blood vessels in the kidney, which makes the kidney can not clear the toxins in the blood normally. In this case, our body will retain more water and salt than it should, which can lead to the increased body weight and ankle swelling for filtration water and keeping the balance of the water in the body is one important role of the kidney. You may have protein in your urine. Also, waste materials will build up in your blood.
  About 30 percent of patients with Type 1 diabetes and 10 to 40 percent of those with Type 2 diabetes eventually will suffer from kidney failure. In America, the percent is larger compared with that in other countries.
  The earliest sign of diabetic kidney disease is an increased excretion of albumin in the urine. This is present long before the usual tests done in your doctor's office show evidence of kidney disease, so it is important for you to have this test on a yearly basis.

  Even if you are diagnosed with diabetic kidney disease or diabetic nephropathy, it is not necessary to panic. In Kidney Disease Hospital, we have stem cell therapy which can repair or differentiate into beta cells, which can give new hope for you.www.kidneytcm.com

Can CKD Grade 3 Patients Have Watermelon

  Can CKD Grade 3 Patients Have Watermelon
  Can CKD (chronic kidney disease) grade 3 patients have watermelon? CKD is a general medical item which consists all kinds of chronic kidney diseases such as hypertensive kidney disease, diabetic kidney disease, purpura nephritis, nephrotic syndrome and so on. The condition is complex, so we can not make sure whether patients should have watermelon or not.
  But we can make a decision on whether there is edeme (oedema, dropsy, swelling) and so on. Why? Water melon contains so much water. If edema (oedema, dropsy, swelling) come into being, it indicates that the kidney fails to discharge water. In this case, we should take in less water or no water if necessary. Watermelon no doubt can worsen edema and gives kidney more burden.
  Conversely, if CKD (chronic kidney disease) grade 3 patients have no edema, they can have watermelon for watermelon contains vitamin and can help discharge water in some extent.

  Last but not least, diabetic nephropathy(diabetic kidney disease) should control the intake of fruit including watermelon for fruit contains sugar which is not good for the control of blood sugar.

Why Renal Cysts Have Hematuria( Blood in Urine)

  Why Renal Cysts Have Hematuria( Blood in Urine)
  Why do renal cysts have hematuria ( blood in urine)? Renal cysts can also be called kidney cysts also a kind of kidney disorder, which means that there are enclosed sac or pouch that usually contains liquid or semisolid material.www.kidneytcm.com Hematuria( Blood in Urine) caused by renal cysts can be divided into 2 kinds.
  Firstly, with time passing by, the epithelial cells of Renal Cysts will secrete more fluid. As a result, the internal pressure of cysts increases so the tension of cyst wall also rises. The cysts surface consists of blood capillaries, which will rupture, thus causing hematuria or blood urine. What’s worse, rupture will also easily lead to infection.
  Secondly, renal cysts will grow bigger and bigger if we do not control it, thus causing more pressure to the surrounding tissues. In renal glomerular basilar membrane, there are pores which can only allow small molecules to leak out such as creatinine, blood urea nitrogen, urea acid and so on. If the cyst grows bigger, it will squeeze the tissues and damage the membrane. In this case, red blood cells will also leak out, thus causing hematuria or blood urine.
  So it is necessary to treat it in time so as to avoid the above symptoms. The best therapy for kidney cyst is to shrink the cysts naturally instead of renal puncture, which can only deal with the bigger ones and can not shrink the smaller ones.
  In Kidney Disease Hospital, Chinese Medicine can treat it. Its effective materials can play roles in the surface of the cysts, extend the blood vessels in the blood vessel wall, accelerate the blood circulation of cyst wall, increase the permeability of the cyst wall. After the above mentioned, the inner pressure of blood pressure in the cyst wall will decrease, which reverses the blood gap between the inner one and the outer one, accelerate the reabsorption of water from cyst to the blood vessels. In this way, the cysts will be shrunk.

  The above mentioned are about why hematuria appears and how to treat hematuria with renal cysts hematuria (blood urine). For more information, please consult us online or leave a message.

What Causes Occult Blood in Urine for Chronic Kidney Disease

  What Causes Occult Blood in Urine for Chronic Kidney Diseasewww.kidneytcm.com
  What causes occult blood in urine for chronic kidney disease? "Occult blood" simply means "hidden" blood; blood that is not visible, but is still present. Normally there is no blood in the urine. Blood can indicate an infection, kidney stones, trauma, or bleeding from a bladder or kidney tumor.
  When the red blood cells are damaged, the heme in it will release, so we can test it by coupon or test paper. We can express the degree of occult blood by occult 1+, occult 2+, 3+, etc just as protein 1+ and protein 2+, etc.

  Occult blood, the same as hematuria, is a sign which indicates the damage of kidney and we can not ignore. Once we find it out, we should monitor it and have examination on both blood and urine such as protein, red blood cell, creatinine, blood urea nitrogen and urea acid, etc. If proteinuria and hematuria last for 3 months, it can be diagnosed with kidney disorder or kidney disease. As for the treatment, Chinese Medicine is recommended, which is abstracted from natural herbs and can repair the damaged cells for it contains active materials and can treat occult blood from root.

Regular Urine Checkup Important in Kidney Care

  Regular Urine Checkup Important in Kidney Care
  Regular urine checku or urinalysis (or, laboratory test of urine) is the simplest and cheapest way to find out if a person has a kidney disease.
  “Early detection of kidney disease can be crtical,” said Dr. Hazel Yadao Oro, Nephrologist. Kidney has compensation ability, which means that even some kidney units are damaged, others can do more work such as filtrating, thus stopping creatinine rising. However, the damage in the kidney has really takes place. Only when the damage is nearly half, serum creatinine level will rise. So some times, when some patients come to see a doctor, the doctor tells him that he has got into end stage of kidney disease. Creatinine is a metabolism waster from muscles, which should be discharged out of the body trough renal glomerular filtration membrane for in membrane there is pore. However, when kidney is damaged, membrane will also damage, which leads to pore narrower so creatinine will accumulate into the body.
  Kidney disease is the 10th leading cause of death and fourth leading cause of morbidity in the Philippines. Most at risk are people with high blood pressure, diabetes or a family history of kidney disease such as polycystic kidney disease, hereditary disease. The kidneys are two vital organs that keep the blood clean and kidney disease can be detected through urinalysis.
  how to detect kidney disease early?
  How to test?
  “If a person is diabetic or hypertensive, he or she should have their blood sugar monitored and it is important also to check blood creatinine levels,” Oro said. For example, when kidney is damage, in urine, there may appear protein, red blood cells in the urine.

  In Kidney Disease Hospital, we have a systematic examination both in blood test and urine test, which can help test early kidney damage. Urinalysis usually contains test about protein, sugar, red blood cells, white blood cells, bilirubin, urobilinogen, pH value, proportion, nitrite, and so on. These tests can help us identify whether there are urinary tract lesions, diabetes, and so on.
