We have always had it, it was just poorly diagnosed or we didn't have the proper management procedures for it which is actually a kidney transplant.

The commonest cause of kidney failure in Nigeria is Hypertension followed by Diabetes and then infections (rather, your body's reaction to some infections).

It is estimated that 15, 000 [b]new [/b]cases develop each year and it costs millions to manage not cure!

Please monitor your blood pressure, monitor your blood glucose and do a urinalysis to check for proteins regularly!

Some of the causes include alcoholism, hypertension, diabetes, fake drugs, unwholesome foods (especially imported canned foods), environmental pollution, etc.

Since Kidney disease has become a problem in Nigeria, there is need for cure. Most orthodox medicines manage this disease and hence compound the problem and more people die regularly due to this abnomarlity. At herbal medical centre, we provide cure for kidney disorders and restore the kidney back to its state with our herbal products. A lot of people who should have died of kidney disorders are now alive through our products. contact today: doctor@herbalmedicalcentre.com

Now i'm glad smbdy has noticed this very troubling trend. I strongly believe that anybody who walks the streets of Lagos
would definitely notice hundreds if not thousands of these women peddling a head load of various concoctions.
These so called local remedies come in all the colours of the rainbow. While i must admit that our indigenous/ trad medicine have been proved to be potent and quite helpful, proof also abound in support of the view that these concoctions are responsible for a very high percentage of kidney related ailments. My biggest concern is that the so called practitioners/ vendors of these traditional mixtures are totally ignorant of the chemical component and long term effect of these mixtures.

Often times, their focus is on the immediate effect of the mixture with absolutely no regard as to the long term effect thereafter. For instance, a man who suffers from headache, typhoid, toothache or any such ailments, goes to traditional practitioner who administers a mixture of herbs, and behold, the headache etc is cured. However, little do they know or care to know that a mixture which cures headache could also have a dangerous effect on the kidneys or other organs. And usually nobody associates the subsequent condition with the earlier medication for headache.

Similarly, a single substance taken separately could be potent and harmless, however when mixed with another substance may becomes a completely new chemical compound which may be dangerous and unfit for consumption. That's why i always baffle at the rate at which our people love mixing these things. I've once come across a man who insists on being given a sample from the vendors entire collection i.e a sample from about 12 different bottles. shocked

Well, guess we are all entitled to our choices, but isn't it rather stupid if one gets killed on account of the choices he chose to make?
