Can Kidneys Be Repaired From Diabetes

Kidneys can filter wastes and excess fluid from the blood. Diabetes and high blood pressure are two leading causes of kidney disease. About 30 percent of patients with type 1 diabetes and 10 to 40 percent of patients with type 2 diabetes will eventually suffer from end stage renal disease, which indicates that about 90 percent of kidney function has been lost. Well then, can kidneys be repaired from diabetes?

1. How does diabetes damage your kidneys?

Diabetes can impair your kidneys by damaging the organ’s small blood vessels, depriving it of nutrients and oxygen and limiting its ability to function properly. When this happens, the body retains more water and salt that it should, leading to weight gain and ankle swelling.

Besides, diabetes can also damage nerves, which can affect normal signaling to the brain that the bladder is full. If you do not get the message to empty your bladder, pressure can build and further injure the kidneys.

Change your lifestyle

As long as dietary measures are concerned, you should consider a renal-diabetic diet to keep your diabetes under control and slow progression of kidney damage. A low protein diet will help take workload off the kidneys. You also need to avoid alcohol and certain over-the-counter medications including those of pain and colds.

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy

Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy is a natural Chinese medicine treatment. The active ingredients can dilate blood vessels, prevent inflammation and coagulation, degrade extracellular matrix and supply nutrition to renal tissues so as to promote the restoration and regeneration of new renal functioning cells and tissues. This is the radical way to repair kidneys from diabetes.
