Top 5 Japanese Herbs For Kidney Disease

Over 10% of the world population suffers from chronic kidney disease, and it is becoming increasingly common.  


Every year, more and more people are diagnosed with kidney disease in the United States, especially since medicare began covering dialysis, and we all know that doctors/nephrologists are not above wanting to make a buck off their patients. It is also quite possible that nephrologists get kickbacks from dialysis centers for every patient they send to them.  Long term outcomes for patients on dialysis are not great. According to the National Kidney Foundation, the average life expectancy for a patient on dialysis is only 5-10 years. For someone between the ages of 70 and 74, life expectancy is closer to four years on dialysis. 


Astronomical amounts of patients are being diagnosed daily, even patients with mild symptoms of kidney disease.  If we consider the fact that kidney disease may be a direct result or side effect of medication such as insulin and metformin, aspirin, high blood pressure meds, etc..., then perhaps lowering doses or avoiding these medications altogether should be the first step in "fighting" the disease.  The job of the kidneys is to filter fluids, medications, alcohol, etc... severely tax the kidneys which could result in lower functioning kidneys. 


Thankfully, there are many natural and effective ways of treating kidney disease; one of the most popular treatments in Kampo medicine, which is a ancient Japanese medical system, which includes the use of Japanese herbs.


Both conventional and traditional doctors in Japan use these herbs to treat chronic kidney disease and many other illnesses. Before we discuss the benefits of these herbs, here is an overview of Kampo and Kampo medicines.
