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.
