How to reduce serum creatinine . It is 2.1 now - #575

Managing serum creatinine levels effectively requires attention to both lifestyle and diet, alongside a consideration of your unique dosha balance. Creatinine, being a waste product from muscle metabolism, indicates how well the kidneys are filtering it out. A rise from 1.7 to 2.1 might concern, and proper steps can help stabilise it. Start with what you intake. Hydration is crucial—think of water as your kidneys' best friend. Keep sipping on warm water through the day, but avoid overloading your system since too much can be stressful for the kidneys. Also, avoid excess salt and protein in your diet, as they can burden your kidney function. In Ayurveda, we often look to minimizing ama (toxins) as a route to wellness. Reduce processed foods, which puts unnecessary strain on digestion. Swap out heavy, oily dishes for light, easily digestible meals that keep agni (digestive fire) strong. Lentils, green leafy veggies and whole grains like quinoa offer nourishment without being taxing. Triphala, a revered Ayurvedic formula, could be beneficial due to its mild diuretic properties and it helps keep bowel cleanse. Taking a teaspoon of triphala powder with warm water before sleep may aid in detoxification. Also, a concoction of boiled coriander seeds taken on empty stomach, couple of times a week can support kidney function. Don’t miss the importance of physical movement; it helps circulation but keep it moderate, strenuous activities can raise creatinine levels temporarily. Try gentle yoga or walking. Stress and sleep, often overlooked are as vital; high stress can spike creatinine levels, so explore pranayama or meditation to calm your system. Get enough restful sleep since our body’s repair machinery works when we’re resting. Please ensure regular check-ups to monitor your levels and consult a healthcare professional to prevent any potential serious conditions from developing. If the levels continue to rise or if you have symptoms like swelling or unusual fatigue, get medical attention promptly. Though Ayurveda provides valuable tools, it can't replace necessary medical interventions if conditions are serious.
