THANK YOU
DR. MAITRI ACHARYA
hello Niharika singh,
Thank you so much for reaching out and itâs really good that youâve caught your CKD (Chronic Kidney Disease) at an early stage and are managing it well with medicines. From what youâve said, your creatinine is high but stable, BP is under control, and protein leakage is there but manageable. That gives you a strong window of opportunity to support your kidneys naturally and slow down further progression. Ayurveda focuses on strengthening Mutravaha Srotas (urinary channels), calming down Pitta-Vata in kidneys, and protecting your Ojas (vitality).
You donât need to fear CKD â what you need now is a kidney-friendly routine, the right herbal support, and a strict yet nourishing lifestyle.
Daily Routine for CKD with High BP (Age 30) Morning (6:30 â 8:00 AM)
Wake up early, drink 1 glass lukewarm water slowly (no overdrinking) Take 10 soaked black raisins and 2 soaked almonds (peeled) Gentle walk or slow yoga (10â15 mins) with deep breathing Avoid intense workouts or heat exposure Before Breakfast
Punarnavarishta â 15 ml with equal water Gokshuradi Guggulu â 1 tab (if advised by your Ayurvedic doctor) Breakfast (light, warm)
Soft boiled moong dal, red rice kanji, steamed veggies No bread, packed cereals, cheese, or processed food Add 1 tsp ghee (pure cow ghee) to meals Midday
Avoid tea/coffee Instead: coriander + fennel herbal water sip warm Optional: coconut water (if potassium is not high) Lunch (largest meal)
Steamed rice with thin dal or veg soup Bottle gourd, ridge gourd, snake gourd â excellent kidney-friendly veggies Avoid curd, tomato, brinjal, pickle, and excess salt Evening (4â5 PM)
Small portion of fruit: apple, guava, pear Avoid banana, papaya, watermelon (unless doctor clears) Herbal tea: Punarnava + Varuna decoction
Dinner (by 7:30 PM)
Light meal: rice porridge or vegetable soup No fried, heavy, or spicy food Take Avipattikar Churna (½ tsp) at night if you have acidity
Before Bed
Warm water foot soak for 10 mins Gentle deep breathing (Anulom Vilom 5 rounds)
Lifestyle Dos Rest well â avoid screen time at night Keep BP and sugar fully in control Get blood tests every 3â4 months to monitor Walk daily, but donât exhaust your energy Practice gratitude and keep your mind light â fear weakens kidneys too
Strictly Avoid
Pickles, papad, processed food Too much dal, rajma, chana Tea/coffee, refined salt Painkillers without prescription Very salty snacks or packaged juices Ayurvedic Support (with permission from your main doctor) Punarnavadi Kashayam â 15 ml with water before meals Gokshura churna â 1 tsp with warm water daily Neeri KFT syrup â 10 ml twice daily Chandraprabha Vati â 1 tab twice daily (only if potassium is not high)
Youâre young, and youâre already on the right path. With the right support and strong routine, your kidneys can stay protected for many, many years.
If you have any doubts, you can contact me. Take care, regards, Dr.Karthika.
Managing Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) with high blood pressure requires careful dietary and lifestyle modifications. Since youâre in the early stages and your condition is controlled with medication, adopting an Ayurvedic-inspired regimen could complement your current treatment.
Focus on consuming sattvic foods - those that are light, easy to digest and nourishing. Include a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables but be cautious with those high in potassium (like bananas, oranges, and spinach) due to your kidney condition. Go for apples, berries, grapes and cauliflower as safer options. Cooked vegetables are often preferable they are easier on a weak digestion. Quinoa and brown rice could be suitable grains, providing essential nutrients while being kind to your kidneys.
Protein intake should be moderate; too much strain kidneys. Opt for plant-based proteins, such as lentils and chickpeas, in moderation, avoiding excessive animal protein. Make sure to avoid processed and packaged foods, they are often high in sodium, which is not ideal for high BP. Use herbs like coriander and cumin, they aid digestion and relieve excess pressure on the kidneys. Salt should be limited; consider using herbs and spices to flavor your food.
Stay adequately hydrated but not excessively, as your kidneys need to balance fluid levels effectively. Drinking warm water can be beneficial for agni, or digestive fire. Warm lemon water might provide a gentle detoxifying effect in the mornings.
Exercise gently but regularly: think light yoga or walking, which help improve circulation without overtaxing the body. Stress management is key, engage in daily practices such as meditation and pranayama which can help lower blood pressure naturally.
Regular check-ins with your healthcare provider are essential to monitor your conditionâs progress, evaluate how well these adjustments are working, and make necessary changes. Always integrate any ayurvedic practices with the advice and supervision of your healthcare team to ensure safe and effective management of your health.
