Kidney Diseases

Kidney disease refers to a group of conditions of various origins that causes the kidney to stop functioning properly. Infections, autoimmune inflammation, certain toxins or medications, high blood pressure or metabolic conditions such as diabetes can cause this.

If damage to the kidney is acute, it can impair the survival of a patient due to increased complications such as: severe hypertension, anemia, weak bones, nutritional imbalances, and neuropathies. Patients with chronic kidney conditions can develop progressive kidney failure, which in the final stages requires dialysis or a kidney transplant.

Studies show the use of stem cells can potentially improve kidney function by accelerating the process of regeneration.  Some stem cells in particular, the mesenchymal cells, have the ability to differentiate into precursors of renal cells. Experimental studies on animals show a trend towards slowing down of kidney disease when they receive mesenchymal cells injection.

Clinical trials using autologous stem cells offer new hope for patients diagnosed with severe kidney disease.

Cell therapy is combined with a holistic comprehensive approach. The entire treatment takes five days to complete and includes lifestyle and diet recommendations as well as personalized natural supplement prescriptions for kidney system support.

Stem cell therapy is followed up at regular intervals to monitor progress.
