Treatment of renal failure with folk remedies
Renal failure in remission, without symptoms of exacerbation, is usually treated on an outpatient basis. The treatment process is accompanied by control by a urologist, nephrologist, correction of doctor's prescriptions depending on the patient's condition and laboratory tests.
To reduce the load on healthy nephrons, it is recommended to adhere to the following recommendations:
- A ban on drugs that are toxic to the kidneys;
- Limiting the intensity of physical activity;
- Treatment of foci of infection of the body;
- Use of drugs that bind protein metabolites;
- Eating a diet low in salt and protein.
A decrease in the proportion of protein in the diet (40-60 g per day) should not affect the ratio of useful amino acids. Reducing salt in food has a positive effect on blood pressure indicators, reducing swelling. It is desirable to keep its amount in the amount of 2 to 4 g per day.
Removal of metabolic products from the body of a person suffering from renal failure is recommended through the stimulation of perspiration. At home, this can be achieved by visiting the sauna, using medicinal baths, spa treatment in regions with a dry warm climate.

Treatment of kidney failure with burdock
To improve the condition of renal failure, traditional medicine advises to brew burdock root. It must be crushed in a mortar to a powdery state and one tablespoon boiled in a glass of boiling water. This should be done in the evening, and in the morning the infusion will be ready for use.
The infusion is drunk in several doses in one day. The dose is chosen depending on the patient's water regime, because you cannot drink more liquid than the volume of urine that comes out during urination. Otherwise, swelling may appear. The water for the infusion must be prepared in advance: boil and settle, then carefully decant so that no sediment gets into. Put a small piece of magnet or silver in the jar in which you are settling water (See also: properties and uses of burdock root)
