Ayurvedic perspective for kidney failure

Kidney failure in Ayurveda is termed as mutravikara upadrava/ prameha upadrava in which your kidneys partially or wholly stop functioning as they should. This condition mainly occurs due to the disruption caused in your inner fire ( agni), which controls your metabolism, digestion, and generates energy that is used for internal and external bodily’s functioning. Ayurveda says that whatever you eat is looked up to as an offering to your agni. But sometimes, the increased consumption of unhealthy foods ( virudh aahar), such as too oily, salty, or spicy foods, can toll on your kidneys’ functioning. The Ayurvedic treatment for kidney failure strengthens your agni, which improves your metabolism and maintains the robustness of your kidneys throughout your life.
