Chronic Kidney Disease Cause & Cure Discovered

The traditional medical system has no cure for Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD). They try to slow down its progression and that’s about it.

That’s why a new study in the Journal of Diabetes & Metabolic Disorders is so important. Because it identifies one of the main causes of CKD.

And this cause is completely preventable and reversable using simple diet and lifestyle changes.

Metabolic syndrome, a cluster of conditions like increased blood pressure, high blood sugar, excess body fat around the waist, and abnormal cholesterol levels, has been suspected to play a role in kidney dysfunction, but findings so far have been mixed and inconclusive.

Scientists already know that diabetes is a CKD risk. Since metabolic syndrome is a less serious version of diabetes and a sign that diabetes is on its way, the authors of this study wanted to settle the issue of the link between metabolic syndrome and CKD.

The study method involved a careful search of various medical databases up until December 2022. The focus was on large population studies that looked into the association between metabolic syndrome and new instances of kidney dysfunction.

They also conducted subgroup analyses to delve deeper into the intricacies of the data and address any discrepancies in the findings.

In total, the meta-analysis incorporated 24 eligible studies involving an impressive 6,573,911 participants. The results were significant.

1. There was a clear association between metabolic syndrome and an increased risk of developing CKD, with the former having a 42% increased risk of the latter.

2. The risk of developing albuminuria or proteinuria, conditions where an excessive amount of a protein called albumin is present in the urine, indicating kidney damage, was 43% higher in those with metabolic syndrome.

3. People with this metabolic condition had a 25% higher risk of experiencing a rapid decline in kidney function.

4. The subgroup analyses revealed that the association between metabolic syndrome and kidney dysfunction became stronger with the increase in the number of metabolic irregularities present, but this finding required more research.

This study underscores metabolic syndrome as a significant risk factor for kidney dysfunction. The findings advocate for closer renal monitoring for people with this metabolic disease.

All of this means that you can prevent CKD and preserve your kidney function by modifying your lifestyle to address components of the metabolic syndrome like obesity, high blood pressure, and high blood sugar.

Even better, if you have already been diagnosed with CKD, you can reverse it using simple lifestyle changes explained here…
