We at Dr Dassan’s Ayurveda, focus on the underlying cause of Chronic kidney disease i.e mainly blood pressure and diabetes. Additionally, the underlying dosha is balanced with appropriate diet and lifestyle changes. We provide patients with ayurvedic medicines that include natural herbs like gokhru, punarnava, kasini, varuna etc that have a nourishing effect on the nephrons and are also diuretic in nature. By this we achieve our main objective of rejuvenating the nephrons. This in turn improves the renal filtration and kidney functioning. Our goal is to increase blood flow and flush toxins from the body through urine. We have seen a significant increase in kidney function and urine production during the course of our treatment.We have prevented the need for dialysis in patients who haven't yet started with it and reduced the dependency on dialysis in patients who were already needing it. Moreover, patients have seen an improvement in tests such as those of serum creatinine, blood urine nitrogen, urine analysis etc.
Long term uncontrolled hypertension can cause severe damage to the glomeruli (blood vessels that filter out waste) causing the deterioration of kidney function. In Ayurveda, it is correlated with disorders of mutra vaha srotas which are the urine carrying channels.
Chronic hypertension over time causes damage to the glomeruli in the kidneys due to aggravated tridosha. This leads to disturbance in the urinary channels called the mutravaha srotas causing insufficient urine production over the time due to damaged nephrons.

Q. Why do hypertensive kidney diseases occur?
Ans. High blood pressure is referred to as hypertension, whereas nephropathy is referred to as deterioration of kidney functionality. Thus, this syndrome develops when small blood arteries, glomeruli, kidney tubules, and interstitial tissues in the kidneys sustain damage from chronically high blood pressure. Nephrosclerosis(progressive kidney damage) is eventually caused by the tissue's eventual hardening and thickening.
Q. How are the kidneys affected by high blood pressure?
Ans. Blood flow can be decreased when the blood vessels become narrow and constricted due to high blood pressure. The blood arteries in your kidneys may no longer function correctly if they have been damaged. When this occurs, the kidneys are unable to eliminate waste such as creatinine, uric acid etc. Increased blood pressure brought on by extra fluid in the blood vessels can set off a deadly loop that worsens the damage and eventually results in renal failure.
Q. How is hypertensive kidney disease diagnosed?
Ans. Hypertensive Nephropathy is diagnosed using biochemical tests and the patient's clinical history. Over time, chronic hypertension worsens and damages the kidney. Various blood and urine examinations with imaging studies like USG are done to diagnose hypertensive kidney disorder.
Q. How to prevent hypertensive kidney disease?
Ans.
Q. How does Ayurveda treat Hypertensive Nephropathy?
Ans. We at Dr. Dassan’s Ayurveda, focus on the underlying cause of kidney disease i.e diabetes and blood pressure. Certain lifestyle measures, exercise, and diet along with ayurvedic medicines are given. Ingredients like gokshura, punarnava, kasni, varuna, etc are nourishing to the nephrons and are diuretics in nature .This makes renal functioning efficient by achieving the main objective of rejuvenation of nephrons.
Q. What if the patient does not recover despite taking her medications and receiving your treatment?
Ans. We have a large number of patient records showing that following our therapy, their conditions significantly improved. The patient can notice significant improvement within 40-50 days. If the illness is extremely chronic, the patient will heal the most if they conform to our instructions.
Q. What is the cost of the treatment?
Ans. Our medicines i.e the full course of treatment could cost around Rs 3000 to 6000 per month that depends on the digestive power, appetite, and other associated conditions that the patient might be having since we believe in not just treating the disease but the body as a whole.
Q. Are there any side effects of your treatment?
Ans. No, there are no side effects as we provide our patients with the best treatment and medications which are given in appropriate dosages with the right Anupana (taken along with medicine). However, each medicine has a different effect on each individual so we recommend you stay in touch.
Q. What diet can one consume to manage high blood pressure?
Ans. As we know, high blood pressure can adversely affect the kidneys to a great extent. Make sure that the daily food items are consumed in moderation and avoid excessive intake of one kind of food item. There should be the inclusion of seasonal fruits and vegetables.
