Something about Herbs for High Creatinine Level

High levels of creatinine usually mean that the kidneys are not working properly and that waste has accumulated in the system. There are other factors that can contribute to high creatinine levels. They are side effects of medications or some herbs, high meat consumption and diabetes, all of which put a strain on the kidneys. Fortunately, there are herbs available that can help lower those levels.

Stinging Nettle Seed
A study published in the Journal of The American Herbalist Guild, noted that patients who were given stinging nettle seed extract showed a significant decrease in their serum creatinine levels while they were taking the extract and that the effect lasted well after they stopped taking the extract. Stinging nettle seed is possibly the most effective herb available that has been shown to lower these levels.

Cinnamon
Cinnamon is a common household spice that helps regulate blood sugar. It has also been used to treat kidney problems especially in diabetics with kidney disorders. Cinnamon helps to enhance the filtration process and to strengthen weak kidneys and thus increases the evacuation rate of creatinine.

Siberian Ginseng
Siberian Ginseng is often used with cinnamon to revitalize the kidneys and to lower creatinine levels. It is known to be very helpful in treating kidney disorders by stimulating the circulation to the kidneys.

The most important thing for kidney disease patients is to avoid dialysis and kidney transplant, not just lower high creatinine levels. If having any follow-up questions, you are welcomed to leave us a message or send us an email to doctornickzhang@hotmail.com, we are here to help.
