Creatinine Levels And Their High Effects On Kidney Function
Abstract
We are going through an era where time is money, so in order to save our time, we sometimes miss our schedule and skip meals and consume less water. Consuming less water and adding carbonated and alcoholic drinks in our diet has become a major issue today. And there is a toll for every mistake. The food that we consume is passed through different processes in our body like ingestion, digestion, absorption, assimilation and excretion. And it has to be excreted out by the excretory system once all the ingredients have been absorbed. The kidneys play an important role and are vital parts of the excretory system. So, to know if kidneys are in a good healthy state, some diagnostic tests are available in medical science and serum creatinine levels test is most reliable. Lets know more about creatinine in our topic today and reduce creatinine levels naturally.
Introduction For Creatinine
Creatinine is a byproduct of the muscle energy generating system. The normal value of creatinine in the body depends on various factors like age, race, gender and body size. So, we could take an average value that lies between 0.8-1.8 g/day for men and 0.6-1.6 g/day for women. Its value can also be referred to in millimoles per day i.e. mmol/day. So, the average value of creatine for a man is 7-16 mmol/day and for a woman 5.3-14 mmol/day. Now, if the values are fluctuating below or above the mentioned value, it might be a sign of some undergoing kidney disease.
Causes Of Higher Creatinine Levels
Higher creatinine levels are indicators of various kidney diseases which are as follows:
- Kidney Infection
- Inflammation in the basic kidney structures, that is also known as Glomerulonephritis
- Renal stones which causes the blockage of the urinary tract, and hence increases the creatinine level
- Chronic Kidney Failure
- Diabetes
Symptoms Of Higher Creatinine Levels
Following are the symptoms of high serum creatinine levels
- Fluid retention
- Nausea
- Shortness of breath
- Irregularities in the heart beat
- Chest pain
- Fever and chills (If the creatinine levels are high because of some infection in kidney)
- Frequent urination
- Increased thirst
- High blood pressure
Diagnosis For Higher Creatinine Levels
A routine blood work is sufficient to measure the creatine levels in the body. This particular blood work to measure the serum creatinine levels needs overnight fasting. For a urine creatinine test, your doctor may provide you a container to collect urine for the next 24 hours.
Ayurvedic point of view about high levels of Creatinine
According to the ayurvedic system of medicine, the lifestyle of an individual affects the levels of creatinine and Ayurveda also help to cure the causes of kidney diseases. To lead a healthy lifestyle it is important to take food on time and to have adequate sleep. A diet which is low in salt also helps in bringing down the creatinine level, as it will lower down the blood pressure and hence the load on the kidneys will also decrease. Protein should also be decreased in order to bring down the higher creatinine levels.
Treatment in allopathic system
In the allopathic system of medicine, there is no specific medicine available for a better treatment for high serum creatinine level, they just try to manage this condition by dealing with the underlying cause. They prescribe antibiotics for the infection ongoing in the urinary tract. This does not mean that the doors to the path to cure are closed. One who is a victim of the modern science of treatment, where they are not sure how to handle the high serum creatinine levels, Ayurveda welcomes them.
