High creatine - #908

In Ayurveda, elevated creatinine levels often indicate a strain on kidney function, which can be managed by supporting the kidneys and improving overall metabolism. There are many medications in Ayurveda that can help you in this condition but a proper analysis of your body is needed and not just values of some blood tests. You can take 500 mg of Punarnava and Gokshura capsules twice daily, or use their powdered form in consultation with an Ayurvedic practitioner. Additionally, maintaining a light, balanced diet that avoids excess salt, protein, and processed foods will ease the burden on the kidneys.

For managing HbA1c (7.9%) and blood sugar, Bitter melon (Karela) and Gurmar are excellent herbs that help regulate blood glucose levels. Drinking Karela juice or taking 500 mg of Gurmar twice daily may help in controlling blood sugar over time, alongside a low glycemic, high-fiber diet.

To address insomnia, herbs like Ashwagandha, Brahmi, and Jatamansi are excellent for calming the mind and promoting restful sleep. Ashwagandha helps reduce stress, while Brahmi and Jatamansi support mental clarity and relaxation. Taking 500 mg of Ashwagandha and Brahmi capsules in the evening or drinking warm milk with turmeric and Jatamansi powder can be a soothing bedtime remedy. Regular relaxation practices like meditation and yoga can also support better sleep quality. Always consult with your healthcare provider or an Ayurvedic practitioner to ensure safe and effective treatment, especially with your current health conditions.

Let’s dive into your concerns of managing creatinine without making life too complicated. So, a creatinine level of 1.20 isn’t exactly alarming in the medical world, but keeping your kidneys happy is super important. Our sweet Ayurveda can offer a hand here. Your sleep troubles and blood sugar (HbA1c 7.9, wow) points toward potential pitta imbalance. Stress, perhaps?

First off, maybe try adding a cup of barley water in your daily routine. You can cook barley in lots of water and drink the liquid part - it’s good for kidneys and can help with high creatine. It can act as a diuretic, promoting kidney function.(drink warm if you can, helps digestion) Keep your salt intake on the low without killing flavor and keep those green leafy vegetables on your plate, though not raw. Steam 'em a bit. And, how about some coriander seeds infused tea? Just boil a tablespoon in two cups of water till it shrinks and sip…has a cooling n soothing effect.

Look into ashwagandha when battling insomnia. It’s known for reducing stress and promoting quality sleep. Maybe 1-2 teaspoons of powdered form with warm milk before bed. See how that does?

Now, 'bout your sugar levels… Fenugreek seeds are kinda your friend here. A spoonful soaked overnight and eaten empty stomach might help bring those numbers down. This might be a slow game, but consistency is a winner!

Again, addressing stress is key—try meditation or gentle yoga to cool the flame. These changes can be tricky to get used to, and don’t swap anything cold turkey without a professional’s inkling—especially on medications. For any drastic kidney/spike in sugar related issues, never hesitate to seek formal medical advice pronto, alright? They got the tools, we got the calm… combination works wonders!
