LIVINGICON: Young man alcohol is not the major factor The major factor Is drug over the counter(DOC) coz of the chemical use in preserving them and also can food coz of the preservation, lack of water also one need to be taking some quantity of water everyday to ease digestion. Coz waste is being stored in the kidney. 3 Likes |

@OP Thank God for your health now.. most people find it hard to let go of kidney damaging habits till it's too late for them. I saw a video of some people caught faking all these expensive drinks they sell at bars and clubs and was like woow.. they mixed 'God knows what' together, added sugar and started filling the Hennessey etc. bottles, packaged it for sell. I think we should all be vigilant with the things we consume with the high rate of crime and get rich quick syndrome plaguing our society. 2 Likes 2 Shares |

See how some people are faulting herbal medicine. Just because you got it right through the Orthodox medicine does not render other medicine useless. Are there no people who have died relying on the same medicines? 2 Likes |

Seaseason07: Herbal remedies is a generic term under which all sorts of herbal mixture fall into. Consumption of herbs for it's medicinal benefits happens in all countries of the world and what is clear is kidney is very important in breaking down and excretion of almost all theses herbal products. However, there are no enough studies to show the appropriate dosing of these drugs for those who have good kidneys and those with kidney diseases unlike other modern medicines that went through various trials before being approved for use. Truly, some of these herbs have antioxidants and are beneficial but do when know the appropriate dose that is healthy for our kidneys and livers? 5 Likes |

Echoban: There are non prescription medications that are generally safe to be given without a doctor's prescription. Shockingly though common medications like Ibuprofen and Diclofenac if taken disproportionately over extensive period can lead to kidney problems. That said the main culprits of rensl diseases are uncontrolled high blood pressure and diabetes.. 2 Likes |

Famocious:Thanks. Well I was watching a program on YouTube and the man made it clear that, people are saying herbal medicine is bad due to the fact that, the safe measurement is not considered when it administered but that was wrong. In the olden Days, there is something called EMI in Yoruba language, it's like an egg thr shape and the size is like an egg, not bigger than local egg's size ( not agric o ) this EMI has a seed inside it that's as big as the size of the shell which give the shell big space inside it when the seed is removed. The seed is what is use in the making of shea butter. Now, in olden day, they get it, then gently cut of the head to remove the seed inside it. He said that was what safest measurement when taking any herbal medicine. If your body is strong or the infection is chronic and no healing after taken that measurement for 3 days then you can increase it to two. So that's how we take our bitter leaf juice. I remember last MAY when a friend of my kid sister came to spent 4 months with us, she was always has a very terrible menstrual cramp. It happened that she came on Thursday and her period time is on Monday, and we always take the juice every Saturday or Sunday. She complained when she took it because she has never taken something that's as bitter as that but guess was, that was how she was healed of her menstrual cramp till date. In addition, nowadays it's difficult to see that EMI but the size of schinap little cup is the replacement for the measurement. 5 Likes |

Seaseason07: Interesting.. I once had a 24 year old female student who had a kidney transplant here in Nigeria. Fund for her transplant was donated by her state government and she got her new kidney from her mother. Despite all the warning about unprescribed medications and herbs, she went ahead to use a herbal mixture for heavy menstrual flow and she suffered acute kidney injury with allograft (transplanted kidney) rejection. She went back to hemodialysis because her given kidney had failed. Sadly, she died while trying to raise fund for the second kidney transplant. We all learn daily from our experiences.. 5 Likes |

Kylekent59: I don't support alcohol intake even if it's little. I don't consume it either as it may put my kidney at risk. And I will strongly advise every renal failure patient to avoid it as this will take ones kidneys to end stage where transplant will be the only option. |
