Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) affects approximately 600,000-700,000 people
in the United States. Approximately 12.5 million people worldwide are believed
to suffer from PKD. It is also thought to account for 7-10% of people who are on
dialysis and require mechanical filtration of blood.
Cysts usually begin as an outpouching (like a blister) anywhere along the
length of the nephrons. Approximately 70% of the cysts detach from the nephron
when they are small and proceed to enlarge as they fill with either clear fluid
or fluid that may contain blood cells. In patients with PKD, hundreds to
thousands of cysts can develop that range from the size of a pinhead to as large
as a grapefruit (10-20 cm.) in diameter.
Natural Remedy to Shrink Cysts in Polycystic Kidney Disease
Herbs used in Micro-Chinese Medicine Osmotherapy have function to expanding
blood vessels and promoting blood circulation. With the help of these herbs,
blood pressure outside the cyst can be decreased to the level that is lower
than
that inside the cysts. Under such a condition, cystic fluid oozes out
easily.
