Ayurveda for Kidney Disease (CKD): A Doctor's Protocol for Renal Health

A protocol-first guide to living well with Chronic Kidney Disease — written by two Ayurvedic physicians who believe you deserve both compassion and honesty.

Chronic Kidney Disease forces you to navigate two worlds at once: the lab reports and medication schedules of modern nephrology, and the question of what else might genuinely help. Ayurveda for Kidney Disease (CKD) answers that question honestly — with a protocol built on your actual disease stage and your body's constitutional pattern, never a one-size-fits-all detox promise.

Written by Dr. Ajit Vijaykumar Patil and Dr. Mrunali Ajit Patil (both BAMS, MD Ayurveda), this book gives you:

Dosha-specific herbal guidance with real dosing and real cautions
A diet protocol that respects both medical nutrition limits and Ayurvedic food wisdom
A stage-by-stage safety guide to Panchakarma — including which classical procedures are unsafe in CKD and why
Dedicated chapters on hypertension, renal anemia, dialysis support, and diabetic nephropathy
A diagnostic framework combining Nadi Pariksha with standard renal lab monitoring
A myths-and-FAQs chapter, plus a practical 7-day renal-support reset

Every recommendation is grounded in evidence, and every chapter is clear about where it stops and your nephrologist's care must continue. This is not a cure — it is a careful, respectful companion to your treatment.

This book is for you if:

You or a loved one has been diagnosed with CKD at any stage
You want safe, physician-guided Ayurvedic support alongside your existing treatment
You're managing CKD alongside diabetes, hypertension, or dialysis
You're an Ayurvedic practitioner looking for a protocol-first clinical reference

Always consult your treating nephrologist before starting any herbal, dietary, or lifestyle intervention discussed in this book.
