Herbs for Kidney Health
Two bean-shaped organs, located right below the rib cage, kidneys carry out one of the most essential bodily functions – waste excretion. Expelling waste matter from our system and keeping it devoid of harmful substances is one thing that we cannot do without. Remember how difficult life gets when the garbageman doesn’t turn up to get rid of the trash from your house for even one day? Same with our body.
Make no mistake, our kidneys are irreplaceable and it’s therefore crucial that those organs remain in a working condition till we breathe our last.
Functions of the Kidneys
Let’s run through what our 8th standard Science textbooks have already told us. Our Kidneys –
- Control the water balance
- Maintain electrolyte balance
- Eliminate toxins and waste products from the body
- Control blood pressure
- Produce the hormone Erythropoietin
- Activate Vitamin D
- Control Acid-Base balance
Reasons enough to take care of them?
What is Kidney Stones?
One of the major threats to the health of our kidneys is the formation of stones (renal calculi). The condition is called Nephrolithiasis. A rather common incidence in India, the causes of Kidney Stones are vast and varied. When your urine contains more crystal-forming substances — such as calcium, oxalate and uric acid — than the fluid in your urine can dilute, and if your urine lacks substances that can prevent crystals from sticking together, the ideal environment for kidney stones is created. It’s one of the more painful conditions to suffer from, according to many suffering from kidney stones.
