Kidney disease Homeopathic treatment

Homeopathy is a holistic form of treatment that claims to improve kidney functioning, reduce dialysis, and cure all symptoms of kidney disorders.

With Homeopathy all forms of kidney disease are curable. The goals of Homeopathic treatments are to ease symptoms, help cure the disease, and also cure complications. Almost in all cases, treatment may help restore patient’s kidney function.

First, Homeopathic doctor will work to find out what caused the kidney disease (diabetes, high blood pressure, side effects of allopathic drugs etc). Even failed kidneys are curable with Homeopathy, patient may not need dialysis or kidney transplant.

Here are very few Homeopathic medicines for kidney diseases:

Phosphorus

Inflamed and degenerative mucous membranes. Serous membranes irritation and inflammation. Paralysis due to spinal cord and/or nervous system’s inflammation. Osteopenia.  High cholesterol, varicose. Hemorrhages from even small wounds and scratches, and hematogenous jaundice. destructive metabolism. Liver cirrhosis. Sub-acute hepatitis. Hematuria, especially in acute Bright’s disease. Urine turbid, brown, with red sediment.

Serum AnguIllae or Eel Serum

Destroyed globules. Hemoglobinuria, the prolonged anuria (24 and 26 hours), together with the results of the autopsy, plainly demonstrate its elective action on the kidneys. Secondarily, the liver and the heart are affected, and the alterations observed are those usually present in infectious diseases.

From all these facts it is easy to infer, a priori, the therapeutic indications of the serum of the eel. Whenever the kidney becomes acutely affected, either from cold or infection or intoxication, and the attack is characterized by oliguria, anuria and albuminuria, Diuresis, and in rapidly arresting albuminuria. In heart-disease, the kidney should suddenly become affected, and its function inhibited. Cardiac irregularities and a marked state of asystole.

Arterial hypertension oliguria and edema; the serum of the eel seems better adapted to cases of hypertension and oliguria, without edema. We should bear in mind that the elective action of the eel’s serum is on the kidney, and I believe we can well assert that if digitalis is a cardiac, the eel’s serum is a renal remedy. The serum of the eel has very good results in efficacious in cardiac uremia.
