What is Chronic Kidney Failure? Chronic Kidney Disease is the earliest stage of kidney problems in patients. Kidney failure occurs in stages and not all at once. There are five stages of kidney failure, each stage having its symptoms. These stages are identified by Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) that tells how much blood is cleaned by the kidney per minute. Symptoms of Chronic Kidney Failure The following are the symptoms a person notices when suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease: • Continuous fatigue due to low red blood platelets • Cold due to iron deficiency, which is a result of low red platelets • An imperfect filtration of blood • Itchiness and dryness on skin • Uraemia • Bubbly or frothy urine due to protein leakage • Swelling due to build-up of wastes in the body • Loss of appetite • Chest pain • Loss of breath Kidney Failure Treatment in Ayurveda Ayurveda provides treatment for every disease by using the herbs present in India's roots. In kidney failure treatment in Ayurveda, nature's gift is utilized, that is, the rare herbs and the conventional therapies. A person suffering from Chronic Kidney Disease must make some changes in their lifestyle to recover from the disease. The Ayurvedic treatment works on all the aspects to cure chronic disease naturally and permanently, unlike the allopathic treatment. A person can cure this chronic disease by focusing on their Diet schedule, sleeping pattern, and doing Yoga and Exercise. Diet plays a vital role in the Ayurvedic treatment system. It helps the body get all the required nutrients and prevent it from consuming unnecessary and unwanted nutrients, saving the kidney from the burden of harmful components in the body.
