Ayurvedic Medicine & Treatment Protocol for Kidney Failure



Ayurveda has a completely different approach to treat kidney failure. Ayurveda says there are seven basic dhatus in human body namely Rasa, Rakta, Masa, Meda, Asthi, Majha & Shukra. The kidney as an organ is “Rakta” and “Meda” dhatus. The basic lies in treating this two dhatus if we have to treat kidneys. According to Ayurvedic Physiology, there are two waste materials in the body ‘ama’ and ‘kitta’. ‘Ama’ is a substance which is formed by undigested/fermented food which generally happens in any individual. ‘Kitta’ can be compared with waste which is removed from the body like sweat, feces, and urine.

In Renal Impairment, Kapha dosha is vitiated. Especially, its type named Kledak Kapha, which moistens the ingested food and thus helps in the digestion process. Impairment of Apana Vayu, a type of vayu, will also impair the excretion of urine or cause urine retention. Pachaka Pitta, again a type of Pitta, produces the urine in the intestine and kidney just helps to excrete the pre-formed urine, traveling with Rasa dhatu to kidneys.

So, synchronizing the three doshas Apana Vayu, Pachaka Pitta & Kledak Kapha is the goal of Ayurvedic Treatment for Kidney Failure.

The goals of Ayurvedic Treatment for Renal Failure that is followed at the center are to Correct or treat the cause of kidney failure, Support the kidneys until they have healed and can work properly and Prevent or treat any complications caused by acute renal failure.  


With Ayurvedic medicine Creatinine & Urea levels come down slowly & gradually the frequency of dialysis is reduced. Associated symptoms like weakness, pain in joints, etc. diminish. Ayurvedic medicine also helps to prevent its effects on the heart.
