Is Ayurvedic Medicine Good for IgA Nephropathy (IgAN)

Ayurvedic medicine, or Ayurveda, is one oldest healing system that has been used widely to treat various diseases as well as kidney disorder especially in India. Well then, is Ayurvedic medicine good for IgA Nephropathy?

Ayurvedic medicine and IgA Nephropathy

Ayurveda is not so much a single treatment as a holistic approach, because its aim is to balance the body, mind and spirit with different methods such as herbal medicines, massage, proper drinking, diet and lifestyle.

IgA Nephropathy, an autoimmune disease, results from immunoglobin IgA depositing in the kidney. With this disease, patients are more likely to develop proteinuria, blood urine, high blood pressure and some other symptoms.

Ayurvedic medicines show an outstanding effect on improving patients’ immunity, lowering high blood pressure and easing other symptoms for IgA Nephropathy patients. From this point, we can know ayurvedic medicine is indeed good for IgA Nephropathy. However, this approach can’t treat IgA Nephropathy as effectively as we expects. This is because it can’t do anything for the deposition of IgA immune complexes.

Alternative therapy to Ayurvedic medicine

Since we have known the biggest disadvantage of this remedy, the alternative treatment should make up this point. Immunotherapy is just such a treatment for IgA Nephropathy. It combines the essence of herbal medicine, healthy lifestyle and blood purification, so this therapy can not only regulate IgAN patients’ immune system and alleviate their symptoms but also cleanse their blood thoroughly. Finally, abnormal immune complexes including immunoglobin IgA can be removed from the body.

Compared with Ayurvedic medicine, Immunotherapy focuses on dealing with the root cause, so more and more IgA Nephropathy prefer to use the later remedy and many of them has got great benefits from it.

Different methods are suitable for different patients. Of course, not all IgA Nephropathy patients can use Ayurvedic medicine or Immunotherapy. Before choosing one of them, you can first learn more about them from the online doctor or leave a message to us.
