Kidney disease - a hidden cause of chronic tolerance hypertension (high blood pressure).

Kidney is an important organ that regulates the blood pressure of the whole body. The kidney is a bean shaped organ on the lower edge of the rib cage and at the back of the abdominal cavity located below the upper limit of the pelvic cavity. The two kidneys regulate blood volume, drain acidic waste, metabolize drugs, balance electrolytes, and produce hormones. Yes, the kidneys are much better than urine. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is even thought that the kidney's power dominates the fetus as well as the embryo. In this article, we will focus on how renal diseases cause intractable hypertension.

Hypertension promotes kidney failure. The opposite is also true. In physiology, sick kidneys are always considered to require high blood pressure to maintain tissue perfusion. This means that the rest of the body tissue continues to receive nutrients and oxygen through the blood, so the kidneys need to raise blood pressure. This is a natural survival mechanism incompatible with optimum health condition.

The vasculature of the kidney is a low pressure bed. In other words, the kidney is very sensitive to changes in blood pressure, reacts with renal arterial spasm (sclerosis) and tends to raise blood pressure via the renin-angiotensin-aldol steron mechanism. Do not let this throw you, I will explain it.

Renin is a hormone secreted by juxtaglomerular cells in response to decreased blood volume, low potassium, low adrenaline, or decreased renal perfusion pressure. Renin converts a 10 amino acid protein (packaged in the liver) called angiotensinogen into an 8 amino acid polypeptide called angiotensin I. Angiotensin I is still inactive but active angiotensin II by angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE). Angiotensin II is a powerful vasoconstrictor. At the same time, Renin also stimulates the renal insufficiency gland (adrenal gland), secretes a hormone called aldosterone, stimulates the nephrons of the kidneys and reabsorbs the salt and water to dilate blood volume. Everything is an attempt to raise blood pressure.

Apart from atherosclerosis and blood viscosity, the biggest cause of essential hypertension is glomerulosclerosis. The glomerulus is a kidney filtration device. Glomerulosclerosis is a funky way of saying that the glomerulus is hardening with debris, fibrin clots (fibrosis), and acid waste clogging the filter. In this way the pressure increases. The amount of inflow became more than the outflow amount. The capillary tube or nephron is cured at the same time. We call this nephrosclerosis. Diabetes can also accelerate this process like diabetic nephropathy.

Notice that half of the kidneys are gone, even before hypertension is diagnosed. If your hypertension waving your legs without heart failure, you are tired and accompanied by swollen eyes, you must have been kidney. Sadly, renal function tests such as blood urea nitrogen and serum creatinine may be normal at this time.

To avoid end-stage renal failure and associated hypertension, a one-pound prevention is always better than a one-pound healing. Please stop all foods that hurt the kidneys, like annoying, fragmented, lost food. All fried foods, processed foods, drugs like asprin, too many refined sugars, heavy metals (lead and cadmium), heavy animal protein, coffee, antihypertensive drugs, especially diuretics.

To return the kidney to normal before it is too late, it is necessary to perform necrotic tissue excision with an enzyme blend containing proteolytic enzymes such as nattokinase and serrapeptase. Kidney friendly herbs like milk thistle, ulucaria, parsley, corn silk, butchu. Raw fruits and vegetables also help to restore kidney vitality and function. To remove heavy metals chelate with EDTA, malic acid, vitamin C, N-acetylcysteine, magnesium, vitamin B 6, CoQ 10, zinc.
