How to Treat PKD Naturally

Polycystic kidney disease, also known as PKD, is a genetic condition that involves the growth of multiple cysts in the kidneys. If these cysts grow, they can cause reduced kidney function, medical problems and kidney failure, states the National Kidney and Urologic Diseases Information Clearinghouse. The condition is not curable, but it can be treated. Herbs may ease some symptoms, but consult your doctor before adding any herbs to your treatment plan.

Because the urinary tract connects to the kidney, urinary tract problems may occur in patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (autosomal dominant PKD). There are multiple studies of cranberry (juice or capsules) for the prevention of urinary tract infections (UTIs) in healthy women and nursing home residents. While no single study convincingly demonstrates the ability of cranberry to prevent UTIs, the sum total of favorable evidence combined with laboratory research tends to support this use. Cranberry seems to work by preventing bacteria from sticking to cells that line the bladder. Contrary to prior belief, urine acidification does not appear to play a role. Notably, many studies have been sponsored by the cranberry product manufacturer Ocean Spray(R). Additional research is needed in this area before a strong recommendation can be made. It is not clear what dose is best.

Avoid if allergic to cranberries, blueberries, or other plants of the Vaccinium genus. Sweetened cranberry juice can affect blood sugar levels. Use cautiously with a history of kidney stones. Avoid more than the amount usually found in foods if pregnant or breastfeeding.
