Signs Of Kidney Failure, Causes, Treatment Options By Expert

Kidneys play an important function in the body. Kidneys help in the functioning of the urinary system, secretion of hormones and in the maintenance of blood pressure levels in the body. They filter the blood and help remove toxins from within the body. Kidneys send the toxins to the bladder, which get later removed during urination. When they fail, there is an overload of toxins within the body and there is an inability to filter it out.

Grandmaster Akshar shared with HerZindagi that "Holistic treatments like yoga can bring out one’s potential to the optimal by enhancing physical,mental, emotional, and spiritual facets of the practitioner. This supports the allopathic, homeopathic or ayurvedic treatments that the patient is already on thereby assisting healing."
