Ayurvedic perspective of kidney Health  

In Ayurveda, kidney related problems are associated with Mutravaha srotas ( urinary system). 

Doshas involved in it are vata, pitta, kapha (mostly vata and kapha).

Treatment in ayurveda focuses on restoring the complete health of kidneys by balancing the doshas involved and focusing on root cause.

All that matters is what the condition of the kidney is. If the kidney becomes totally calcified or sclerotic then ayurveda treatment focuses on building the immunity of the body and providing symptomatic relief to the patient to provide the patient quality of life. 

In Ayurveda the medicines that are used to maintain the kidney are all based on the prakriti and vikriti of the patient and the doshas that are imbalanced.

• Rasayana medication are used to restore the functioning of the kidney
• Ayurvedic diuretic medication ( that is mutual herbs ) are used to relieve the obstructions in the urinary system ( mutravaha srotas ). 
• Nephroprotective medications in ayurveda are used to stop further degeneration of kidney tissues. 
• Focusing on the main cause is the main criteria to resolve kidney diseases that why medication to control causes like Blood pressure and Diabetes are used. 
• Dietary changes and lifestyle changes are also provided to decrease the strain on kidney functions.
