Hello how are your kidneys doing? this is Katherine welcome to 00Kidney don't forget
to like and subscribe If you suffer from Chronic Kidney Disease
if you want to lower your creatinine or if you just want to know more about natural
remedies you're in the right place
Here at 00kidney I've made a lot of videos explaining how to improve kidney health
But today is different I want to talk you about something even more interesting
These herbs I'm showing you today are the most powerful herbal remedies lower creatinine
levels
You see the human kidney is part of a powerful but fragile system
And yes the gentle action of herbs has been proven really beneficial to this complex system
The adaptogenic nature of the natural compounds of the herbs I'll show you today is what our
renal system needs to start healing But let's not waste any more time I know you
can't wait to learn about these incredibly powerful herbs
So let's start Horsetail
Horsetail is our first herb today It has powerful healing and soothing properties
It can strengthen the health of our kidneys thanks to its potent antibacterial antioxidant
and antiinflammatory action Horsetail is also a diuretic And this is very
important Diuretics lower our creatinine by helping
our kidneys flushing out the excess of water and waste from the body
In fact diuretic drugs are used in today's medicine to treat hypertension
They promote the flow of urine relieving the pressure on the cardiovascular system and
helping the work of our kidneys So horsetail a natural diuretic can help reducing
the pressure on the kidneys while detoxifying them and reducing the inflammation caused
by the disease A WONDER OF NATURE if you ask me
The use of horsetail also known as shavegrass can be traced back to the ancient Romans
Chinese herbalists have also been using it for generations It was a cornerstone of their
medicinal pharmacy Yes the ancient populations already knew about
the incredible properties of horsetail But they didn't just use it to heal their
kidneys Thanks to its high percentage of silicic acid
horsetail can help with the health of our lungs too
It can treat dry cough nasal blockage and even bronchitis
It's also used to improve bone density and to strengthen the teeth very useful for kidney
patients since bone problems can be frequent It can even help with skin problems such as
rash acne and wrinkles; this is again due to the powerful antiinflammatory and antioxidant
compounds present in it But what I think is the most important benefit
of horsetail is its diuretic property Why is this so important if there are prescription
drugs with the same effect?
As you may already know a lot of kidney disease patients are often given prescription diuretics
These drugs used to treat hypertension Hypertension causes kidney disease Do not ever underestimate
hypertension Now what not everyone knows is that a lot
of these drugs these water pills are actually dangerous for our kidneys Yes I'm not joking
Popular diuretics like furosemide and spironolactone and others are associated with a risk of acute
kidney injury So while I would never tell you to go against
what your doctor says be very careful with the drugs you're taking Always be informed
And remember that using an herbal remedy as natural as horsetail to lower your hypertension
is totally safe and doesn't present these very dangerous side effects
But the problem is no doctor ever recommends these herbs Not because they aren't safe since
they are And not because they don't work
It's because doctors don't know them They don't trust the herbal medicine This is the
western way of doing things It's the way we do this here in Europe or in America
There's kidney disease and then there's dialysis and maybe a transplant No other options no
alternatives Raise your hand if your doctor didn't tell
you that the natural course of kidney disease is always the same from bad to worse And then
in the end there's dialysis Raise your hand I'm not joking I'm really
curious about this Has your doctor ever mentioned to you alternative
treatments to dialysis and transplant like for example stem cells artificial organs or
even herbs?
Tell me this in comment this is gonna be interesting Can't wait to read your opinions
But let's not digress Back to horsetail As I was saying the benefits as a diuretic
antiinflammatory and antioxidant of horsetail are supported by a number of scientific studies
Studies published on respectable papers It's not just folk medicine not anymore
So to get the best from horsetail you can use the dried aerial parts to make a powerful
kidney cleanse tea It can be also taken as a supplement if you
don't have time to make tea They sell it in pills on amazoncom I've put
a link in description if you want to buy horsetail from there
Again the herbal remedies I'm showing you today are proven to work They have been in
use since the times of the ancient cultures And they're still in use today
IN FACT a friend of mine Mike is always using horsetail And guess what?
It really helped him reversing his kidney disease Here's his video in the card above
if you want to learn more about his story But there's another herbal remedy I want to
talk you about today It's called Milk Thistle
Milk thistle also known as Silybum marianum is maybe the most effective herb in treating
renal problems It's a very very powerful herb and it's great to lower creatinine
You see creatinine is a waste product; it's naturally generated by the body
But it's also an indicator of kidney function How?
The kidneys are supposed to filter out creatinine from the blood so if there's more creatinine
than there should be a problem in the renal system is to be expected
Also a buildup of creatinine can lead to uremia a lifethreatening disorder
So when we see a high level of creatinine in the analysis we immediately start to worry
That's just not something you can ignore it may signal a loss of kidney function
So the best way to lower creatinine in the blood is to treat the underlying causes
What we actually want to do is toimprove our kidney function
Now this is why milk thistle can help us A lot of people are using milk thistle to
treat their kidney disease and many of them are seeing dramatic improvements in their
kidney function This is because there's a compound in milk
thistle a flavonoid called silymarin Silymarin has been widely studied for its
properties and today it's considered one of the most powerful herbal extracts present
in nature It has very potent antiinflammatory and antioxidant
properties Why is this useful to lower creatinine?
As you may already know antioxidants protect the body And when you can reduce the inflammation
you help healing the disease This happens because in nature a lot of diseases
are of inflammatory origin For example an inflammation of the joints
is called arthritis The inflammation of the nephrons the filtering
units of the kidneys is called Nephritis There are a lot more diseases of inflammatory
origin you can recognize them because their nouns end in "itis" Which means inflammation
in Latin So it's easy to understand why an herbal remedy
that can reduce the inflammation is so powerful to improve our kidney health
Now the people who would benefit more from milk thistle are those suffering from diabetic
kidney disease If you have diabetic kidney disease milk thistle can really help lowering
your creatinine Also people with a kidney damage caused by
an infection or by toxins can really improve their health with milk thistle
What is the right dosage for this herb?
How can you take it?
Recent studies found out that 500mg per day of silymarin extract is the best dosage in
most of the cases You can find silimaryn the active compound
of milk thistle as a supplement on Amazoncom As usual there's a link in description
