I have successfully gotten my grandmother off of dialysis after 4 years- stage four, then stage 5. Every doctor said it could not be done. We did it. One day at a time. Absolutely beginning with nutrition. All of those renal diet musts" are contributing to the fact that these people continue to lose there ability to allow there bodies to strive. White breads only? and dont forget to start taking away the okay to eat fresh fruit, or many veggies, or nuts, or grains, musnt forget legumes... Instead lets make them believe that they need to overload on protien-and glue (white starch?) don't drink water! It will kill ya. I mean, do you honestly feel what you posted? just keep your body from real nutrition and when you come in to get your blood cleansed.. We'll reward you with fake sweetners atop of jello and send you home with more destructive recipes. Its the least to be done, considering, these peoples continued demise pays the bills.
Please -do your research, its "high school stuff". Please search your soul. And to any patients out there.. , . Please start by learning about alkalized water and maybe some stabilized oxygen- totally non toxic!! Make your low fluid allowance count! Enzymes! We were supposed to have them thank goodness for health food stores and natural advocates-protease is a good enzyme to start with, if you are a kidney patient with "high urine protien" (urine ph level under 6.0) and on the other hand , if you are a patient with a urine ph balance above 7.5 you are in need of bringing some acidity to your body to help neutralize things. Try sodium ascorbate( vitamin C -no calcium), purchase ph urine strips on the internet, healthfood stores and test daily to see if your ph level is getting closer to 7.0. That is the number both sides of the ph levels want to try and focus on.
Try these things for a while if you like and see how you feel about "the side effects" vs "dialysis effects" oh! Two more things, see if the stabilized oxygen doesnt help make a difference with blood sugar and maybe blood pressure because as much as they tried to give my Nani more diabetic meds and blood pressure meds when not really needed, I know that they were inhibiting her own body from performing its own tasks. Those things are important to try and defeat- we did. Remember, what we speak, shall be what is. the power of thought!!! I am on a mission!! Much love and Health. Melanie

Hi Melanie,
After reading your blog, I am further inspired to continue researching different methods of healing. I have always been a big believer of herbal remedies and will continue to find alternatives, rather then the medicine and foods the docters want me to take.
I am a patient on Dialysis and feel great apart from the toxins building up in my body. I will try to pursue a healthier lifestyle here on.
Many thanks!
Hope all goes well for the future!!

Dietary Changes, Supplements

You can try to eat only buckwheat all day, 2-3 days per week with 0,5 l parsley or horsetail tea, and after this day you will notice that your kidney responsive to food and some supplements ... so don't use in this buckwheat days even all supplements, except vitamin D because maybe some of them irritate kidney.
Also essential vitamin D (if your situations worsen, try larger doses - 10000 vitamin D per day), NAC (2*600 mg per day) (for my kidneys it's a miracle), necessary to stengthen immunity (one month echinacea, other month astragalus, siberian ginseng etc.) Q10
I don't eat meat and dairy, so I don't know if my kidney liked them or not, but sometimes I eat fish and eggs and my kidney like them. Also my kidney like apples.
My kidney didn't liked Pau'd'arco. I tried it for immunity, but two times after taking one capsule 500 mg, my kidney were in pain. Also be very careful with species - turmeric OK, but black pepper NO. Cloves - OK, ginger - OK.
For my very useful site for supplements is http://www.lifeextension.com/Protocols/Kidney-Urinary/Kidney-Health/Page-08
In this site I learnt about NAC and tried it. For my kidney NAC was very very useful - like miracle cure. Thanks to God. I bought the cheapest NAC from iherb.

[YEA] 08/24/2012: Geralyn_d from Atlanta, Ga: "When I went into acute liver failure 4 years ago I was not told about ascites, they didn't really expect me to live and I turned down a place on the transplant list. I started eating raw vegan as it was the least reactive food I could stomach. One day I was dressing and noticed I looked like a water barrel! I weighed myself and had gained 8 pounds in a couple of days... I was going out of town the next day and used the only thing I know of that quickly removes excess water... DMSO.
I spread 1/2 to 1 teaspoon of 99% DMSO on a baby wipe... Then wiped from breast line to just past the groin where lymph glands are (front and back)and over the next 12 hours I peed like a racehorse! It took 2 days but all the water build up disappeared. It has come back 5 times and I used it each time to success. I also added tissue salts for control of water in the body and liver support (nat mur /nat sulph).
Recently my sister was in the hospital when her chemo almost killed her (heart and liver issues). She gained 24 pounds in 5 days. I advised the DMSO cautiously thinking at least there they could deal with any reaction. Instead of a problem, she ended up flooding the measuring container a few times and lost the 24 pounds in a week. The Drs were very happy that the liver numbers quickly dropped to the normal range. We didn't share our diuretic free solution though. DMSO is a cheap and pretty safe way to get rid up water build up."

Eliminate Carbonated Beverages
Thank you,
Regards Jacqui
Did you mean protein in the urine? Your husband would be in trouble if he didn't have protein in his blood. If protein in the urine is what you meant, the answer is probably that he is drinking a lot of carbonated beverages and that is causing swelling in his kidneys and letting the protein leak from his blood into the urine.
This is why I recommend that all people do not drink them and especially not let their kids drink them. While doing ambulatory care I ran across 4 children running from trace to 4+ proteinuria (protein in the urine). Trace is the least amount measured and at 4+ you look for big time kidney problems. Changing nothing but leaving off carbonated beverages on all 4 of them, 1 week later 3 of them were negative for protein in the urine and the 4th one who had the 4+ was down to trace. Her mother had let her drink one on the way to the clinic. None of these children had a UTI at the time of testing, but as I told their mothers, "If you want your children to keep the kidneys they were born with, keep them away from carbonated beverages". Even if you are lucky enough to get a match for a transplant, you will be needing about $l0,000 in medicine to keep from rejecting that transplant, and that medicine affects your immune system making your more susceptible to everything including cancer.
Flaxseed Tea
★★★★★
Q: apple cider vinegar is said to be good for kidney disease, does that include all kidney related problems? My son is 6 years old and has nephrotic syndrome(scarring of the kidney's filters), will this remedy help him?
Simmer a tablespoonful with flax seeds in a 20 oz of water for about 5 minutes with a lid on, take of the stove (no microwaving) and leave the lid on for another 10 minutes, strain the seeds and give it to your son to drink that! Do not sweeten the tea, not even honey!
This tea could be given 5-6 times a day, it cleans your kidneys out of any infections and the legumes from the flax seeds help with healing kidney damage.
I personally cured my daughters right kidney when she was 7 years old with this simple remedy!

flax seeds are absolutely good for you, and there will not be any side effects from them, you can use this remedy for as long as you like! Now if you are taking flax seed oil, then we are talking about high omega 3-6-9 and thining the blood, wich is helpful for other ailments, for kidney problems just brew the seeds and drink it, it gets a little thick but that is the good legumes that your kidneys need! Good luck!

Just a couple of notes on the flax seed discussion. A) Legumes are a family of plants (beans, peas, clover, etc.) Flax is not a legume. B) The omega-three-rich oils in flax seed become oxidized within 20 minutes of grinding them or if they are heated. Oxidized flax oil is detrimental, not beneficial.
Glandular Therapy
(Syracuse, New York)
06/27/2014
Dear Eckhard from Toronto, There are many causes of or for kidney disorders. Kidney disease is too vague to provide specific advise. As far as gland health goes: Avoid foods that have the element BROMINE. Certain breads and dough products along with certain soft drinks contain bromine. Bromine displaces the necessary IODINE in endocrine processes. Taking one standard multivitamin and mineral supplement daily should ensure the required IODINE.
Also I recommend drinking distilled water along with one cup of pure cranberry juice a day to avoid bacterial kidney infections and to promote kidney health in general. For some specific kidney disorder you need to state exactly what is wrong with your kidneys....Oscar
Kidney Bean Pods
★★★★★
From the Book: Miracle Medicine Foods, p. 83-95. 1977 – Rex Adams
Note: White Kidney Bean Pod Extract, Pills and Tea bags can be found online for purchase.
Remarkable permanent cures for kidney and bladder trouble have been achieved with water in which the pods of kidney beans have been cooked. This was discovered by Dr. Ramm, of Preetz, Germany, around the turn of the century, and reported by him—after 25 years of research.
Dr. Ramm had been treating a woman for dropsy (accumulation of fluid in the tissues) following a valvular disease of the heart. Nothing worked. Suddenly, while making his rounds one day, he discovered that her swelling was gone! She told him she had accidentally drunk a glass of kidney bean water, and began passing large amounts of crystal clear urine—it happened every time she tried it. After three weeks of this her dropsy was gone!
Just to make sure, she continued drinking the kidney pod tea for a few weeks, then stopped. The condition never returned. Dr. Ramm said she was as healthy as a woman can be. Dr. Ramm tried it on other patients. In all cases of heart disease and other ailments, large quantities of clear urine were passed, and long-standing cases of dropsy were cured in a matter of days, and stayed cured.
He found that kidney blockage of long duration was completely cured with bean pod water, and that bleeding from any part of the urinary system was quickly halted! Stones and gravel were rapidly dissolved, and did not return! Diseases of the bladder and ureter were cured! Rheumatism and acute gout vanished! Even some cases of diabetes were cured! In severe cases, it took longer—but it worked if used faithfully! Dr. Ramm called it his "wonder cure."
In some cases, the kidney bean water caused nausea, in which case Dr. Ramm gave it in enemas instead (a half pint with a teaspoon of salt, every two to four hours) —and the results were just as good as the drink. In fact, the enema seemed to halt the convulsions of uremia, releasing large amounts of water.
Around the same time Dr. Ramm was experimenting with this kidney treatment, Dr. Isenburg of Hamburg was obtaining similar results, as reported by one of Isenberg's patients:
About nine years ago, in 1897, I began to suffer from a very disagreeable feeling of pressure in the region of the bladder, which increased to an intense pain through excitement or psychic depression. In the course of the next few years this state very slowly became worse, until in 1906 violent pains appeared in tire right ureter. At the same time the pain in the bladder suddenly increased considerably. My physician diagnosed an inflammation of both organs, but none of those I consulted were able to give any relief.
The urine showed pus, sometimes in considerable quantities. In 1905, sometimes before these last symptoms developed, other had appeared which consisted of severe pains in the small of the back. They tormented me constantly, and often I could not fall asleep. Cold rubs and liniments only brought a temporary improvement.
The pains constantly increased during the spring of 1906 and muscular rheumatism set in. This was so violent that I could hardly wash myself in the morning and evening. Rubbings with water and plasters hardly brought any relief. These various ailments finally became so very bad that I was never free from pains; and they increased constantly in violence.
At this time—in the summer of 1906—the tea of ripe bean pods was recommended to me… So I sent for five pounds of bean pods. I began the treatment according to directions. I did not have to wait long for results; large masses of uric acid crystals and albuminous matter were excreted, and that initiated a decrease of pain in the bladder and kidneys. The pain in the bladder disappeared entirely in about three weeks, the muscular rheumatism also diminished in the next few weeks, and disappeared entirely in seven or eight weeks.
I was soon entirely free from my very great sufferings and have not had any trouble since, as I have been using the tea off and on. The enormous excretion of uric acid crystals during the use of the tea was really remarkable (they often covered the bottom of the night vessel).
Dr. Ramm said that bean pod water must be freshly* made and taken the same day as it is prepared. If more than 24 hours old when used, he reported, it causes diarrhea. Dr. Ramm suggested that beans picked from the garden be used immediately to make a decoction from the sliced pods without the beans. (The beans themselves have no value.) Boil two ounces of the pods slowly in four quarts of hot water for four hours. Then filter the liquid through a fine muslin and store in a cool place for eight hours. After eight hours, strain again with muslin—slowly and carefully (too many fibers in the fluid can cause intestinal upset). It is then ready.
*Note: Fresh Bean Pods will be nearly impossible to locate and are a seasonal crop. Dried Pods are the only logical answer to it's use as a tea.
Dose: one glassful every two hours. Used thus, says Dr.' Ramm, the remedy is completely harmless, and can be used indefinitely with excellent results. It drains out pounds of excess fluid.
Reported Results:
Mrs. B.D. writes: I developed kidney trouble six weeks (ago). The doctor kept giving me antibiotics but my kidney trouble wouldn't clear up. I went to the third doctor and he told me to come back for tests and x-rays. He found a kidney stone and diabetes. My sugar count was 326. He said I must have an operation if the stone didn't move… When I got home... I started taking the bean pod tea. I drank a quart a day. Two weeks later when I went back to the doctor my stone was gone and my sugar count was 128. He said 'your well. I no longer had a stone nor diabetes. He was as surprised as I. At no time was I given any medication for diabetes.
Mr. D.S. writes: My wife has had kidney problems for years ... I (prepared a liquid from the plant) taking care to strain and re-strain the fluid, since any extra particles of suspended matter might play havoc with a weaker digestive system. After getting it stand eight hours), I told my wife to consume an eight-ounce glass every hour. She said the stuff tasted awful and made a lot of faces, but you know what? The concoction worked. Her urine appeared crystal clear after she drank the juice, and she has reported no kidney pain or problems in the kidney area since.
Mrs. T.D. writes: I had dropsy for several years and was taking dropsy pills for swelling and fluid.... Then I started cooking these red kidney bean pods, boiling them (and drinking the water).... I began the treatment according to directions. I did not have to wait long for results. Seems I passed large quantities of urine real often (and some gravel). I continued taking the bean water for about 2Vz weeks and within two weeks I had no sign of dropsy. The swelling had left my legs and ankles. The fluid above my stomach had also left.
Miss K.B. writes: My urethra had been swollen for years. I've been to Duke Hospital and my own hospital and another one. They cut and treated, but nothing helped. I planted the beans and drank tea made with them for three weeks, and Fve never had such results. It took out the swelling all over the body and it was equal to a good laxative... Several swollen friends are going to plant some... (They) are desperate and glad to hear about it.
Kidney Bean Pods
★★★★★
Kidney beans pods water must be freshly made and consumed within 24 hours otherwise it will cause diarrhea. Only the pods of the kidney bean were used as the kidney bean were not useful for kidney and bladder problem.
To prepare the kidney pod,boil 2 ounces of the pods slowly in 4 quarts of hot water for 4 hours.When the pods is ready,filter the solution through a fine muslin slowly and carefully and leave it in a cool place for 8 hours. After 8 hours filter the solution through muslin slowly and carefully again as too much fibers in the solution can cause intestinal upset.The solution is ready now.
Other foods that are useful for kidney, bladder and urinary problems are asparagus, beet roots, black eyed peas hulls, carrots, cherry juice, cornsilk teas, cranberries, garlic, onions, parsley, radishes, sage tea and water melon.

I was facinated with Brian of Australia Comfrey remedy for his kidney troubles.
I am a New Zealander living in Kentucky USA..as a child my Mum(part Maori) always added a few leaves of Comfrey into the cabbage etc,she also told me when I had babies to add a leaf or two into my babies vegetables,and I always did that.
Over my life I have ALWAYS grown Comfrey in my garden,it makes a wonderful tea for the garden plants,and my Mum would use it in her compost. The common name for Comfrey is Knitbone..because it knits together,it is an ancient herb.Unfortunately withing the last 20years some silly persons have over indulged (They must have drunk buckets of Comfrey tea) consequently comfrey has been labelled now.
I believe EVERYTHING in moderation..I have heard of someone dyeing from drinking too much water..if you understand what I mean.
Since living in Kentucky a long way from my Homeland, I have been able to buy a Comfrey plant,and my Comfrey is my treasure, I make a tea from her..I can gargle with the tea..I can add honey and a little ginger powder if I had a cold or flu..comfrey is great for the lungs..bladder etc.
Comfrey leaf if crushed (roll the rolling pin over to crush stalk) and put on a cut with gauze,and wrapped in plastic wrap,within 24hours cut will be sealed, do the same thing for bruising,grazing etc.. back in New Zealand many of the horse trainers use Comfrey for their horses legs when hurt.. Comfrey can also be dried out in the sun and kept air tight to use throughout the Winter..hope you are all healed now Brian.
