Phosphorus and kidney disease - American Kidney Fund

Phosphorus is a mineral found in almost all foods. It works with calcium and vitamin D to keep your bones healthy. Healthy kidneys keep the right amount of phosphorus in your body. When your kidneys are not working well, phosphorus can build up in your blood. Too much phosphorus in your blood can lead to weak bones that break easily.
Many people with kidney disease need to limit phosphorus.
Depending on your stage of kidney disease, your doctor may also prescribe a medicine called a phosphate binder. This helps to keep phosphorus from building up in your blood. A phosphate binder can be helpful, but you will still need to watch how much phosphorus you eat. Ask your doctor if a phosphate binder is right for you.

Phosphate binders can help, however some kidney center doctors and staff take the use of phosphate binders to an unrealistic level by asking patients to take three or more binder tablets with everything that you eat. Regardless of the meal or snack nutritional content, they expect the patient to take ten or more phosphate binders per day. They do not have to live with the side effects of taking all of these binders in a 24-hour period…. And they don’t really care about anything but the phosphorus levels in the lab results. The kidney dialysis tries to watch what they eat and how much they drink, they take their phosphorus binders as prescribed, they stay constipated for days, and the nursing staff and doctors fuss at them about their lab results with a phosphorus level that is too high to meet some standard. It is an ongoing battle that is a no win circumstance for the dialysis patient. There has to be a better way… a new breakthrough. JMO

My Aunt had to go for dialysis almost every week.
She got very week and pale.
Than she went to India and took ayurvedic medicines almost to our surprise she is now healthy and her S.creatin and blood urea levels are normal and she has not taken any medicine for last six months.
She was given following Ayurvedic Medicines
1. Vrikdoshhar Vati.
2. Gokhshuradi kwath.
3. Chandraprabha vati.
All these medicine cost less than 10$ .

I almost gave up on my renal failure when I was told by my specialist nothing could be done except dialysis or a kidney transplant.
I stumbled across the Kidney Disease Solution by accident or luck, and glad I did.
I rushed out and tried these secret ingredients, which to my surprise were easy to find.
Within two days I began to feel heaps better. I told my Nephrologist about this solution but he had never heard of it. I told him to update his research!
I can’t believe that in such a short time my whole life has turned around.
