The urea and Creatinine are wastes formed as a result of metabolic
reactions in the body. The urea is formed by protein breakdown and
creatinine is usually a muscle metabolic waste formed by breakdown of
Creatinine.
In normal healthy persons, the body maintains its urea and creatinine
levels. The blood urea levels are maintained in healthy humans. In case
of some medical condition, the levels become imbalanced and cause
derangement in the normal body functioning.
WHAT IS DIALYSIS?
Dialysis can be defined as an artificial system to remove excess of
metabolic and other wastes from the blood in people with renal failure
who have weak kidneys that cannot handle the metabolic load. The
dialysis can be used in case of acute kidney dysfunctioning or in case
of chronic kidney failure.
WHEN DOES A PATIENT REQUIRE DIALYSIS?
The condition in which a patient requires dialysis is when the body
metabolic wastes increase in the blood rather than passing out through
urine. The blood becomes more and more saturated with these wastes and
the person becomes sick. It is an indicator that the kidneys are unable
to handle the heavy solute filtrate and therefore the blood is not
cleansed completely.
When the kidneys cannot take the load of these metabolic wastes
itself, the body becomes sick regularly due to accumulation of the
metabolic wastes. The body is not able to remove the excess fluid and
electrolytes from the body. The patient starts complaining of problems
of liver, kidneys, and heart. In such cases, the artificial dialysis
system comes into play. It helps to clean the body of metabolic wastes
and filter the blood.
HOW CAN AYURVEDA HELP PEOPLE ON DIALYSIS?
Ayurvedic system of medicine is an ancient Indian system of medicine
that uses the inherent power of herbs to help diseases in a natural and
healthy way. We in Ayurveda believe that the body is controlled by three
different energies which are Vada, Pitta, and Kappha. These energies
maintain the balance in our bodies and any imbalance in these energies
may disorient the body system.
The ayurvedic herbs help the renal failure cases in a natural, herbal
way and the patient recovers from kidney failure in a healthy way. The
person gains immunity naturally and the body becomes stronger and
regains its strength. The kidney tissue becomes stronger and the
nephrons increase in size and number for better functioning of the
kidneys. In this way, Ayurvedic herbs for renal failure help a person
without the use of external dialysis.
