Baking Soda and Apple Cider Vinegar for Kidney Failure
Baking soda water and apple cider vinegar have attracted quite a number of Kidney Failure’s attention, because some people say they can help slow down the progress of kidney failure. Is this true? Can all kidney failure patients drink them?
The answer should depend on two factors: impaired kidney function and health benefits of baking soda and apple cider vinegar.
Impaired kidney function
In kidney failure, accumulation of waste products, toxins and extra fluid in the body can cause a series of problems, such as metabolic acidosis, bone disease and high PH levels. Additionally, when diseased kidneys are unable to filter blood normally, the internal environment balance will be disturbed easily. Then, low immunity or the use of some medicines can make kidney failure patients at a high risk of infections.
Health benefits of baking soda and apple cider vinegar
It is reported that both baking soda and apple cider vinegar can help restore normal serum PH levels through increasing bicarbonate levels. Besides, they can also bring other health benefits.
Baking soda may be able to slow down the decline of kidney function for chronic kidney disease patients, so this simple treatment may bring a hope to make diseased kidneys work longer.
Many people use apple cider vinegar as an alternative medicine to fight against many problems including infections, flushing toxins, kidney stones and pyelitis, because this beverage contains rich vitamins, potassium, sodium, beta-carotene, calcium, and so on.
Notes
Although baking soda and apple cider vinegar can bring some health benefits for kidney failure patients, it doesn’t mean all kidney patients can consume them. If used incorrectly, both of them may cause some adverse reactions. Therefore, self-prescribed treatment with either of these two substances is not suggested for kidney patients, so you had better consult the doctor online before using them as one therapy.
