The kidneys are vital organs in the human body, and their primary functions include excreting waste, maintaining fluid balance, electrolyte balance, and acid-base balance, regulating blood pressure, producing red blood cells, and metabolizing hormones.
Every minute, the kidneys filter about 120 to 150 milliliters of blood, removing waste and excess substances. Blood from the heart enters the kidneys through the renal arteries. In the renal corpuscles, located within the kidneys, blood is filtered to form preliminary urine. This preliminary urine then passes through the renal tubules, where it undergoes further processing and adjustment of its composition. During this process, useful substances such as glucose, amino acids, and electrolytes are reabsorbed into the bloodstream, while excess waste and substances continue to be excreted into the urine. Ultimately, the urine flows out of the kidneys, enters the bladder, and awaits excretion from the body. This process ensures the removal of waste from the body and maintains fluid and electrolyte balance.
Any issues involving the kidneys can potentially lead to various health problems, such as high blood pressure, lymphedema, proteinuria, cardiovascular diseases, and more. Without timely intervention, these problems can worsen and lead to kidney function failure.
How to Determine the Stages of Kidney Disease
Stage 1: GFR ≥ 90 mL/min/1.73 m² Normal glomerular filtration rate (GFR) with possible other kidney issues, such as proteinuria.
Stage 2: GFR 60-89 mL/min/1.73 m², proteinuria levels less than 30 mg/g Mild decrease in kidney function, possibly accompanied by mild proteinuria.
Stage 3: GFR 30-59 mL/min/1.73 m², proteinuria levels between 30-300 mg/g Moderate decrease in kidney function, potentially with moderate proteinuria.
Stage 4: GFR 15-29 mL/min/1.73 m², proteinuria levels between 301-1,000 mg/g Severe decrease in kidney function with noticeable proteinuria.
Stage 5: GFR < 15 mL/min/1.73 m², proteinuria levels greater than 1,000 mg/g Kidney failure, requiring kidney replacement therapy such as dialysis or kidney transplantation.
If your kidneys have reached Stage 5, kidney patches can only help alleviate complications but do not provide a curative effect. For diseases in Stage 4 or higher, kidney patches can be used for intervention and to support kidney function recovery.
The kidneys also produce beneficial hormones.
They alleviate lymphatic swelling.
They maintain water and electrolyte balance.
They produce erythropoietin(NIH external link).
They sustain bone health.
They ensure internal balance and normal function within the body.
They prevent urinary tract infections.
Comparison between Healthy and Damaged Kidneys
Healthy kidneys can efficiently filter the blood, regulate fluid balance, maintain normal hormone and pH levels, help sustain healthy blood pressure, and clear harmful substances and drug metabolites from the body. In contrast, damaged kidneys, due to a loss of partial filtering capacity, lead to the accumulation of waste and excess substances in the bloodstream, causing imbalances and resulting in symptoms such as high blood pressure, back pain, changes in urine, chronic kidney disease, kidney stones, nephritis, and other painful or uncomfortable conditions. Early monitoring and management of kidney health are crucial to prevent further damage.
Factors Affecting Kidney Health
Symptoms of Unhealthy Kidneys
If kidney damage advances gradually, the symptoms and signs of chronic kidney disease can gradually emerge. These may include :
It’s essential to recognize these signs promptly to seek appropriate medical attention and maintain kidney health.
How does our kidney patch work?
Through a transdermal process, kidney care patches deliver active ingredients through the skin, distributing them throughout the body and slowly absorbing them into the bloodstream. This enhances circulation, eliminating harmful toxins that can impair kidney function.
Main Features of Kidney Care Patch
Convenient to use
Applied to the lower back, the active ingredients distribute throughout the body by penetrating the skin, providing more oxygen and nutrients to the kidneys to support their normal function.
Transdermal process
By using an adhesive patch, the active ingredients are delivered across the skin for systemic distribution, & it is absorbed slowly into the body without side effects.
Natural & safe
Combines potent herbal extracts to support kidney health, including cloves, angelica, and monk fruit.
Detoxification
Aids in eliminating the impact of harmful toxins on the kidneys resulting from risks and unhealthy lifestyle habits.
Improves overall health
These can alleviate fatigue, lethargy, and itching, all while promoting circulation and providing energy and strength!
Here are some key ingredients of our Kidney Care Patch (all sourced from nature)
Clove is rich in flavonoids and vitamin C, which help protect cells from oxidative stress. Clove possesses natural antimicrobial properties, combating bacteria and fungi, which aids in preventing kidney-related infections like urinary tract infections. Clove also promotes digestion, helping alleviate gastrointestinal discomfort. By maintaining normal gastrointestinal function and reducing edema, it contributes to reducing the burden on the kidneys.
Angelica roots also known as “break-stone herb,” is a common herbal folk remedy for kidney stones. It is believed to help prevent the formation of calcium oxalate stones and may also be considered to reduce the size of existing stones. Research conducted by reputable authorities in the United States has shown that Angelica rootshas antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, can boost the immune system, alleviate headaches, insomnia, and effectively inhibit the formation of melanin, such as freckles, dark spots, and age spots.
Monk Fruit is rich in flavonoids and polyphenolic antioxidants, which help balance the activity of the immune system, thereby reducing the risk of autoimmune kidney diseases. Monk Fruit has vasodilatory properties and promotes blood circulation, improving blood supply to the kidneys, ensuring an adequate supply of oxygen and nutrients, and contributing to the control of high blood pressure.
Usage Instructions:
Open the patch and tear off the white film on top. Apply it to the skin corresponding to the location of the kidneys. Use two patches at a time, one for each kidney. The patch lasts for 8 hours; for those with severe kidney conditions, a new patch can be applied after the 8-hour medicinal effect ends. For stage 1-2 kidney disease patients, it is recommended to use 2-4 patches per day. For stage 3-4 kidney disease patients, it is recommended to use 4-6 patches per day. Continuously use the patch for at least three months to reduce some of the complications caused by kidney issues. Use it for at least six months to achieve the effect of treating kidney problems.
