Description
Kidneys are the organs that help filter waste products from the blood. They are also involved in regulating blood pressure, electrolyte balance, and red blood cell production in the body.
Symptoms of kidney failure are due to the build-up of waste products in the body that may cause weakness, shortness of breath, lethargy, and confusion. Inability to remove potassium from the bloodstream may lead to abnormal heart rhythms and sudden death. Initially kidney failure may cause no symptoms.
There are numerous causes of kidney failure, cysts and stone and treatment of the underlying disease may be the first step in correcting the kidney abnormality.
Some causes of kidney failure are treatable and the kidney function may return to normal. Unfortunately, kidney failure may be progressive in other situations and may be irreversible.
The diagnosis of kidney failure usually is made by blood tests measuring BUN, creatinine, and glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
Treatment of the underlying cause of kidney failure may return kidney function to normal. These combine herbal treatments may lower the amount of protein in your urine. That could help your kidneys over time. Lifelong efforts to control blood pressure and diabetes may be the best way to prevent chronic kidney disease and its progression to kidney failure.

I have kidney failure and am on Dialysis. My legs have gotten so bad I can nearly walk. They hurt and swell even after dialysis. Just seem nothing I did or took would help. 3 days ago I started taking these little wonderful products. I really notice it last night laying in bed and my legs was not hurting , the swelling was down. This morning 1st in 4 months I got up and started cleaning. I normally don’t get out of bed before 2 or 3 pm cause it hurts so much to walk if I can walk. I can’t wait to see if it changes my lab test. Will up date

This cleanse seems to have really helped some kidney and bladder pain that I have been dealing with for a couple of years. I feel like I’m able to urinate more completely and the burning sensation that I sometimes had is gone. I’ve been using this daily for about 3 weeks and feel so much better
Mbakwe Oluchi –
So far, so good. I got these for my husband who may have kidney issues, he has a lot of protein in his urine and we have been back and fourth to the doctor trying to figure out the issue and are still waiting on test results to come back. In the mean time I wanted him to start trying to reduce and fix the issue himself, he started taking these pills and this morning he said to me I don’t know whats in the pills but I think its working. His urine isn’t as bubbly as it normally is and he said he feels a lot better. If it improves his kidney function and decreases the amount of protein in his urine I’m all for it.
Tejumola –
I have noticed a few things change for the better. I urinate much more frequently on a normal basis. I take this products and noticed my kidney function tests have always been fine but I have had edema in my feet, lower legs and hands for many years. Gone now.
