Early Detection and Ayurvedic Intervention for High Creatinine: Key to Better Outcomes

If you ever had a health check-up, then you must have noticed an item called ‘Creatinine Value’ in your report. A lot of us don’t really care about that item; however, it is vital that you know a bit about creatinine. In simple terms, it is a waste product that is produced when creatine is metabolized in the body. As long as your creatinine is on the lower side, it's fine; however, a high creatinine value is an early indicator of a possible kidney disease. You can go for allopathic medicines such as diuretics to control creatinine; however, an ayurvedic intervention for high creatinine is not only safe but effective too. A high creatinine value can be caused by a kidney infection, glomerulonephritis, kidney stones (especially if they are blocking the urinary tract), kidney failure, etc. Dehydration can also cause a temporary spike in your creatinine levels.

It is vital that you keep a check on your health and visit the nephrologist if you experience one or more of the symptoms listed above. With creatinine, an early intervention goes a long way towards a complete recovery and avoiding further complications. An ayurvedic intervention for high creatinine demands the use of certain ayurvedic herbs to contain the creatinine levels, dietary modifications to improve overall kidney health, and Yoga for de-stressing. Some really effective ayurvedic herbs for creatinine are:

• Green Tea: Green Tea is the talk of the town, and for right reasons. It has a lot of health benefits, and it has shown pretty impressive results in controlling high creatinine levels in the body. The anti-oxidative and anti-inflammatory properties of green tea also give your immune system a boost. This helps in improving the overall health of the body.
• Siberian Ginseng: Regular consumption of Siberian Ginseng has been linked with an improved renal circulation in the body. However, this claim needs further substantiation.
• Mutrakrichantak Churna: This churna has long been used to bring down the creatinine levels in the body. This herbal concoction reduces the inflammation in the kidneys. This churna discourages the formation of kidney stones, and it also helps improve renal health.
• Varunavadi vati: This is an excellent herb used in treating UTIs. The tablets are made from herbs like Punarnava (Boerhavia diffusa), Varun (Crataeva nurvala), Gokshur (Tribulus terrestris), and Shuddha Guggulu (Commiphora mukul). Varunavadi vati is one of the most effective detoxifying ayurvedic herbs, and its regular consumption strengthens the functioning of the kidneys. However, have a consultation with your doctor before consuming any herb or ayurvedic medicine.
• Chamomile Tea: This herbal tea is rich in antioxidants and helps reduce oxidative stress in the kidney tissues. 1-2 cups of chamomile tea daily are good for renal health.

There are some really effective home remedies that not only help you control creatinine but also promote good kidney health. Some of them are:

1. Protein, in the form of amino acids, is the building block of our cells. Creatinine is produced when protein is metabolized in the body. Therefore, a high consumption of protein would automatically result in a higher production of creatinine in the body. Consume animal-based proteins such as red meat, fish, etc. in moderation.
2. Incorporate Omega-3 Fatty Acids in Your Diet: Omega-3 fatty acids come with anti-inflammatory properties. Include foods rich in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fatty fish (salmon, mackerel), chia seeds, flaxseeds, and walnuts in your diet.
3. Moderate the Consumption of Alcohol and Tobacco: Excessive alcohol consumption and smoking increase blood pressure, which also damages the blood vessels. These damaged blood vessels make their way towards the kidneys, inflicting damage on the kidney tissues.
4. Exercise: Try to engage in any kind of physical activity, as it helps with the blood circulation in the body. Mild-to-heavy exercise also promotes the elimination of waste products through sweating. Regular exercise improves your cardiovascular health, helps with weight management and boosts the immune system of your body.
5. Manage Stress Levels: Stress promotes the production of cortisol in the body. This hormone damages body tissues and has a negative effect on the body’s immune system too. Pranayama, deep breathing, meditation, etc. should be a part of your daily life. An early morning deep breathing exercise is even better.
6. Avoid Over-the-Counter Medications: Some of the OTC medicines can result in potential side effects for you. Always consult your doctor before you take any medicine, be it herbal or allopathic.
7. Parsley juice is a nutrient-dense diuretic that encourages a higher frequency and amount of urination in your body. This results in an effective flushing out of toxins from the body, which includes creatinine as well.
8. Yoga: There are yoga asanas such as Salamba Bhujangasana, Setu Bandhasana, Shashankasana, Pawanmuktasana, Surya Namaskar, and Mandukasana that promote good renal health. But be sure to do any asana under the guidance of a qualified instructor.

Early detection is vital for a complete cure for high creatinine. A high creatinine level demands immediate attention and treatment. Proper and timely ayurvedic intervention for high creatinine would allow you to control your creatinine levels quickly with minimal side effects.
